939. That by "seeing the face of the Lord" is not meant to see His face, but to know and acknowledge Him as He is as to His Divine attributes, which are many; and that they who are conjoined with Him by love know Him, and thus see His face, may be evident from the following passages: What to Me is the multitude of sacrifices, when ye come to see the face of Jehovah (Isa. 1:11-1...

His loins were naked and black as soot, and through the blackness was the dusky glow of fire as of a hearth. The ankles...

270.
