53. Verse 27 And God created man in His own image, in the image of God He created him. 'Image' is mentioned twice here for the reason that faith, which resides in the understanding, is called 'His own image', while love, which resides in the will, is called 'the image of God'. The latter comes second in a spiritual man but first in a celestial man.

10 I will turn your feasts into mourning, and all your songs into lamentation; and I will make you wear sackcloth on all your bodies, and baldness on every head. I will make it like the mourning for an only son, and its end like a bitter day.
