10,116. "It shall not be eaten "-that hereby is signified it shall not be appropriated, is evident from the signification of eating, as denoting to appropriate, see above, n. 10,106.

10,117. "Because it is holy "-that hereby is signified what is Divine, to which it shall not be conjoined, because hence comes what is profane, appears from the signification of what is holy, as denoting what is Divine, see above, n. 10,111. The reason why it is not conjoined to it is, because by what was left of the flesh and of the bread, is signified that it was not conjoined, n. 10,114, thus also that it ought not to be conjoined; that this is the proprium of man, which is nothing but evil, may be seen above, 10,115, and to conjoin what is Divine with the proprium of man, thus with evil, is to profane it, n. 6348, 9298. Hence it is said, that whosoever eateth of what is left until the morning, profanes the holy thing of Jehovah, and that that soul shall be cut off from his people, Levit. xix. 7, 8; and also that the flesh of the sacrifice, which touched any unclean thing, should be burnt with fire, Levit. vii. 19. From these considerations it is now evident, that the profanation of what is holy is signified by eating the flesh and bread of the sacrifice on the day following.

10,118. "And thus thou shalt do to Aaron and to his sons " -that hereby is signified this representative of the glorification of the Lord, and His influx into the heavens and into the church, appears from the representation of Aaron, as denoting the Lord as to Divine Good, see n. 9809; and from the representation of his sons, as denoting the Lord as to Divine Spiritual Good, see n. 10,068; and from the signification of doing thus, that is, anointing them and filling their hands, and thereby inaugurating them into the priesthood, as denoting that they may represent the Lord as to the glorification of His Human, and influx thence into the heavens and into the church; for anointing was a representative of the glorification of His Human, and the filling of the hand was a representative of His influx thence into the heavens and into the church. That anointing represented the Divine Good of the Lord in His Divine Human, see n. 9954, consequently glorification, which is the unition of the Divine Human with the Divine Itself, which is called the Father, n. 10,053; and that the filling of the hand represented the Divine Power of the Lord by Divine Truth in the heavens and in the church, and its communicative and receptive [principle] there, n. 10,019,-thus its influx.

10,119. "According to all which I have commanded thee"that hereby is signified according to the laws of Divine Order, is inanifest from the signification of commanding, when concerning Jehovah, that is, the Lord, as denoting according to the laws of Divine Order, for whatsoever the Lord commands is according to Divine Order, thus according to its laws, for the

Divine Truth proceeding from the Divine Good of the Lord in the heavens, thus the Lord there, is order itself; wherefore every thing which the Lord commands is a law of order; that the laws of order are the Divine Truths of the Lord, may be seen n. 1728, 2247, 2258, 5703, 7995, 8512, 8700, 8988.

10,120. "Seven days thou shalt fill their hand "-that hereby is signified a representative of the plenary power of the Lord in the heavens by influx from the Divine Good of the Divine Love of His Divine Human, appears from the signification of seven days, as denoting a full state or what is plenary, see n. 6508, 7228; and from the signification of filling the hand, as being a representative of the Divine Power of the Lord in the heavens, and the communicative and receptive principle there, see n. 10,019; and since this is effected by influx from the Divine Good of His Divine Love from His Divine Human, therefore this also is signified.

10,121. Verses 36 to 46.

10,122. "And a bullock of sin thou shalt offer every day on the propitiations"-that hereby is signified the continual re moval of evils and of the falses thence derived in the natural man by the good of innocence from the Lord, appears from the signification of a bullock, as denoting the good of innocence, see n. 9391, 9990; and from the signification of sin, as denoting purification from evils and the falses thence derived, for by sin is meant the sacrifice of sin, n. 10,039, and by the sacrifice of sin is signified purification from evils and falses, n. 9939, 9990, 10,022, 10,053. The reason why it is called the removal of evils and the falses thence derived is, because the evils and falses appertaining to man are not ejected, but are only removed, as may be seen in what is cited, n. 10,057; and from the signification of every day as denoting continually; and from the signification of propitiations, as denoting the reception of the good of love and of faith from the Lord after the removal of evils and of the falses thence derived, see n. 9506. It is said the removal of evils and of the falses thence derived, inasmuch as all falses are from evil, wherefore so far as evil is removed, so far falses are removed. The case herein is this; all things in heaven have reference to good and the truth thence derived; but all things in hell have reference to evil and the false thence derived; hence in like manner in man, all things appertaining to him, which are from heaven, have reference to good and truth, but all things appertaining to him, which are from hell, have reference to what is evil and false: or what is the same thing, all things appertaining to man, which are from the Lord, have reference to what is good and true; but all things which are from the man himself have reference to what is evil and false. Now as those are the principles, to which all things in the universe have reference, and man is a receptacle of them, therefore there are two things appertaining to man which receive them, one is called the will, and the other the understanding: the will is the receptacle of what is good or of what is evil, and the understanding is the receptacle of what is true or what is false; the will which is from the Lord, which is also called the new will, is the receptacle of what is good; and the understanding which is from the Lord, which is also called the new understanding, is the receptacle of

what is true; but the will, which is from the proprium of man, and is also called the old will, is the receptacle of what is evil, and the understanding which is from the proprium of man and is also called the old understanding, is the receptacle of what is false; into this latter understanding, and into this latter will, man is born from his parents; but into the former understanding and into the former will, man is born from the Lord, as is the case when he is regenerating, for when man is regenerating, he is conceived and born anew. Man is so created, that the will and the understanding make a one, so that those two principles together constitute one man; for the understanding is given to man that he may understand truth, but to the end that it may be implanted in the will and become good, and so far as it becomes of the will, so far it is in the man, for the will is the inmost principle of man, and is the esse of his life, but the understanding is an exterior principle, and exists thence; for what a man wills, that he loves, and what he loves, that he feels to be delightful, and therefore calls it good; the understanding favors it, and confirms it by reasons, and these he calls truths; hence it is that the will and the undestanding in reality make a one, but that it appears otherwise, as is the case when the man understands what is true, and yet wills what is evil; nevertheless that same man, when he is left to himself, and thinks from himself, understands altogether as he wills, that is, as he loves. The reason why a man who wills what is evil, can still speak what is true, and also do what is good, is grounded in hypocrisy, to which truth and good are subservient as means; such a man, if those means are taken away from him, and he is left in freedom, rushes into evils according to the lusts of his will and favors them by his intellectual faculty: this is especially evident from persons of like character in the other life, where every one comes into a state similar to that of his will; and on this occasion those who have not received a new will from the Lord, rush into evils of every kind, and think such things as favor evils, howsoever in the world they have spoken and acted altogether otherwise: for the law of Divine Order is, that the will and the understanding should make one mind, thus one man, consequently that the whole man should be either in heaven or in hell, and not hang between both, that is, with the eye look to those things which are of heaven, and with the heart to those things which are of hell;-by the heart is meant the will and by the eye the understanding.

10,123. "And thou shalt cleanse from sin upon the altar"that hereby is signified purification from evils in heaven and in the church, appears from the signification of cleansing, as denoting to purify; and from the signification of sin, as denoting evil, for all evil from man is called sin; and from the signification of the altar, as being a representative of the Lord as to
