5247. And he shaved. That this signifies rejection and change as to what is of the exterior natural, is evident from the signification of "shaving the head and the beard," as being to reject such things as are of the exterior natural; for the "hair" that was shaved off signifies this natural (see n. 3301).

That "garments of fine linen" are truths from the Divine, is because a...

They also lead into a state of affe...

5394.

For spiritual sight abstracted from such things as are of the world is nothing else than a perception of truth, or of the things of faith; and therefore in the internal sense nothing els...

5744. Up, follow after the men.
