Heaven and Its Wonders and Hell - From Things Heard and Seen 480 480. (ii) Man after death continues to eternity such as his will or ruling love is. This, too, has been confirmed by abundant experience. I have been permitted to talk with some who lived two thousand years ago, and whose lives are described in history, and thus known; and I found that they continued to be just the same as they were described, that is, in respect to the love out of which and accor... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=hh§ion=480 Heaven and Its Wonders and Hell - From Things Heard and Seen 520 520. To this I will add a memorable fact respecting the ways that lead from these places to heaven, by which the newly arrived angels are introduced. There are eight ways, two from each place of instruction, one going up in an eastern direction the other towards the west. Those that enter the Lord's celestial kingdom are introduced by the eastern way, while those that enter the spiritual kingdom a... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=hh§ion=520 Heaven and Its Wonders and Hell - From Things Heard and Seen 531 531. Furthermore, the laws of spiritual life, the laws of civil life, and the laws of moral life are set forth in the ten commandments of the Decalogue; in the first three the laws of spiritual life, in the four that follow the laws of civil life, and in the last three the laws of moral life. Outwardly the merely natural man lives in accordance with the same commandments in the same way as the spi... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=hh§ion=531 The New Jerusalem and Its Heavenly Teaching - From Things Heard from Heaven: Preceded by a Discussion of the New Heaven and the New Earth 6 6. What is meant by "Jerusalem" in the spiritual sense of the Word, shall also be briefly stated. "Jerusalem" means the church itself as to doctrine, because there in the land of Canaan, and in no other place, were the temple, the altar, the sacrifices, and thus Divine worship itself. On this account, also, three festivals were celebrated there every year, to which every male t... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=njhd§ion=6 Heaven and Its Wonders and Hell - From Things Heard and Seen 587 587. As to the positions of the hells in detail, it is something wholly unknown even to the angels in heaven; it is known to the Lord alone. But their position in general is known from the quarters in which they are. For the hells, like the heavens, are distinguished by their quarters; and in the spiritual world quarters are determined in accordance with loves; for in heaven all the quarters begin... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=hh§ion=587 The New Jerusalem and Its Heavenly Teaching - From Things Heard from Heaven: Preceded by a Discussion of the New Heaven and the New Earth 20 20. FROM THE ARCANA COELESTIA. Each and all things in the universe have relation to good and truth, and to evil and falsity; those things which are and are done according to Divine order, to good and truth; but those which are opposite to Divine order, to evil and falsity (n. 2452, 3166, 4390, 4409, 5232, 7256, 10122). Consequently everything in man has reference to the understanding and wil... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=njhd§ion=20 The New Jerusalem and Its Heavenly Teaching - From Things Heard from Heaven: Preceded by a Discussion of the New Heaven and the New Earth 266 266. What are the Books of the Word. The books of the Word are all those which have the internal sense; but those books which have not the internal sense, are not the Word. The books of the Word, in the Old Testament, are the five Books of Moses, the Book of Joshua, the Book of Judges, the two Books of Samuel, the two Books of Kings, the Psalms of David, the Prophets Isaiah, Jeremiah, L... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=njhd§ion=266 The Last Judgment and Babylon Destroyed, Showing That at This Day All the Predictions of the Book of Revelation Have Been Fulfilled - From Things Heard and Seen 61 61. Destruction was effected after visitation, for visitation always precedes. The act of exploring what the men are, and moreover the separation of the good from the evil, is visitation; and the good are then removed, and the evil are left behind. This having been done, there were great earthquakes, from which they perceived that the Last Judgment was at hand, and trembling seized them all. Then... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=lj§ion=61 The White Horse in Revelation Chapter 19; and the Word and Its Spiritual Sense (from Mysteries of Heaven) 4 4. That such is the signification of "chariots" and "horses" was well known in the ancient churches; for those churches were representative churches, and with those who were in them, the science of correspondences and representations was the chief of all sciences. The signification of the horse, as being understanding, was derived by the wise round about, even to Greece, from t... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=wh§ion=4 The White Horse in Revelation Chapter 19; and the Word and Its Spiritual Sense (from Mysteries of Heaven) 16 16.

That the Lord is called "Lord" and "God," is evident from so many passages that if quoted they would fill pages. Let these few suffice: When by the Lord's command Thomas had seen His hands and touched His side, he said, My Lord and my God (John 20:27, 28). They remembered that God was their Rock, and the High God their Redeemer (Ps. 78:35). Jehovah... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ld§ion=41 Teachings for the New Jerusalem on the Lord 47 47. i. That by "spirit" is meant man's life, is evident from ordinary discourse, in which it is said that a man, when he dies, yields up his spirit, so that by "spirit" in this sense is meant the life of the respiration, and in fact the term "spirit" is derived from the respiration, and this is why, in the Hebrew language, there is one word for both "spirit"... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ld§ion=47 Teachings for the New Jerusalem on the Lord 48 48. ii. As man's life varies according to his state, by "spirit" is meant the varying affection of life in man. As, 1: The life of wisdom: Bezaleel was filled with the spirit of wisdom, intelligence, and knowledge (Exod. 31:3). Thou shalt speak unto all that are wise-hearted, whom I have filled with the spirit of wisdom (Exod. 28:3). Joshua was filled with the spirit... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ld§ion=48 Teachings for the New Jerusalem on the Lord 53 53. As to the Word itself, however, it is not said in the Prophets that they spoke it from the Holy Spirit, but that they spoke it from Jehovah, from Jehovah of Armies, from the Lord Jehovih; for we read "the Word of Jehovah came unto me," "Jehovah said unto me," and very frequently "Jehovah said," and "the word [dictum] of Jehovah." And, as the Lord is Jeho... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ld§ion=53 Teachings for the New Jerusalem on Sacred Scripture 43 43. That the truths of the Word's sense of the letter are meant by the foundations of the wall of the New Jerusalem (Rev. 21), follows from the fact that the "New Jerusalem" means the New Church as to doctrine (as has been shown in Doctrine of the Lord, n. 62-63); so that its "wall," and the "foundations of the wall," can mean nothing but the external of the Word whic... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ss§ion=43 Teachings for the New Jerusalem on Sacred Scripture 44 44. The truths and goods of the sense of the letter of the Word are meant by the Urim and Thummim. The Urim and Thummim were on the ephod of Aaron, whose priesthood represented the Lord as to Divine good and as to the work of salvation. The garments of the priesthood or of holiness represented Divine truth from Divine good. The ephod represented Divine truth in its ultimate, thus the Word in the s... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ss§ion=44 Teachings for the New Jerusalem on Faith 65 65. iii.

In the book of Daniel all things treat, in the spiritual sense, of the things of heaven and the church, as do all things in the universal Holy Scripture (as is shown in the Doctrine of the New Jerusalem concerning the Ho... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=fa§ion=65 Teachings for the New Jerusalem on Faith 67 67. The exposition of the foregoing prophetic utterances is as follows: The "ram that had two high horns, the higher of which came up last," signifies those who are in faith from charity; his "pushing with it westward, northward, and southward," signifies the dispersing of what is evil and false; his "magnifying himself," signifies growth; the "he-goat comi... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=fa§ion=67 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Love and Wisdom 161 161. Since times in like manner are settled and constant, they also are a property of nature; for the length of a day is constantly twenty-four hours, and the length of a year is constantly three hundred and sixty-five days and a quarter. The very states of light and shade, and of heat and cold, which cause these periods to vary, are also regular in their return. The states which recur daily are m... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dlw§ion=161 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Love and Wisdom 383 383.
