9737. 'When it is carried' means bringing into being and keeping in being. This is clear from the meaning of 'carrying' as holding in a state of goodness and truth, thus bringing into being and keeping in being, dealt with in 9500. 'Carrying' has a similar meaning in Isaiah,

Hearken to Me, O house of Jacob, and all the remnant of the house of Israel who have been carried from the womb. Even to [your] old age I am the Same, and even to grey hair I will carry [you]; I have made, and I will carry, and I will bear. Isaiah 46:3-4.

Here 'making' stands for, that it may come into being; 'carrying', that it may continue in being; and 'bearing', that it may unceasingly go on coming into being.
