Angelic Wisdom about Divine Love and Wisdom 103 103. THE SUN OF THE SPIRITUAL WORLD APPEARS AT A MIDDLE ALTITUDE, FAR OFF FROM THE ANGELS, LIKE THE SUN OF THE NATURAL WORLD FROM MEN. Most people take with them out of the world an idea of God, as being above the head, on high, and an idea of the Lord, as living in heaven among the angels. They take with them this idea of God because, in the Word, God is called the "Most High," an... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dlw§ion=103 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Love and Wisdom 104 104. As regards the sun, therefore, from which angels have light and heat, it appears above the lands on which the angels dwell, at an elevation of about forty-five degrees, which is the middle altitude; it also appears far off from the angels like the sun of the world from men. The sun appears constantly at that altitude and at that distance, and does not move from its place. Hence it is that ang... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dlw§ion=104 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Love and Wisdom 153 153. There are two suns through which all things were created by the Lord, the sun of the spiritual world and the sun of the natural world. All things were created by the Lord through the sun of the spiritual world, but not through the sun of the natural world, since the latter is far below the former; it is in middle distance; above it is the spiritual world and below it is the natural world. Thi... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dlw§ion=153 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Love and Wisdom 168 168. It must be known further, that the end is everything in the cause, and also everything in the effect; from this it is that end, cause, and effect, are called first end, middle end, and last end. But that the end may be everything in the cause, there must be something from the end [in the cause] wherein the end shall be; and that the end may be everything in the effect, there must be something... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dlw§ion=168 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Love and Wisdom 171 171. To this last end creation progresses continually, through these three, namely, end, cause, and effect, because these three are in the Lord the Creator (as was said just above); and the Divine apart from space is in all space (n. 69-72); and is the same in things greatest and least (77 - 82); from which it is evident that the created universe, in its general progression to its last end, is rel... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dlw§ion=171 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Love and Wisdom 186 186. That it may be still better comprehended what discrete degrees are, what their nature is, and how they differ from continuous degrees, the angelic heavens may serve as an example. There are three heavens, and these are separated by degrees of height; therefore the heavens are one below another, nor do they communicate with each other except by influx, which proceeds from the Lord through the... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dlw§ion=186 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Love and Wisdom 193 193. That these things in their order are like ends, causes, and effects, is evident; for the first, which is the least, effectuates its cause by means of the middle, and its effect by means of the last. ... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dlw§ion=193 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Love and Wisdom 197 197. This can be applied to all those things which have been enumerated in the preceding chapter, to the muscles, the nerves, the matters and parts of both the vegetable and mineral kingdoms, to the organic substances that are the subjects of thoughts and affections in man, to atmospheres, to heat and light, and to love and wisdom. In all these, the first is singly supreme in the subsequent things... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dlw§ion=197 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Love and Wisdom 207 207. In every outmost there are discrete degrees in simultaneous order. The motor fibers in every muscle, the fibers in every nerve, also the fibers and the little vessels in all viscera and organs, are in such an order. Innermost in these are the most simple things, which are the most perfect; the outermost is a composite of these. There is a like order of these degrees in every seed and in every... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dlw§ion=207 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Love and Wisdom 208 208. In a word, there are such degrees in every outmost, thus in every effect. For every outmost consists of things prior and these of their firsts. And every effect consists of a cause, and this of an end; and end is the all of cause, and cause is the all of effect (as was shown above); and end makes the inmost, cause the middle, and effect the outmost. The same is true of degrees of love and wis... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dlw§ion=208 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Love and Wisdom 230 230. IN THE LORD THE THREE DEGREES OF HEIGHT ARE INFINITE AND UNCREATE, BUT IN MAN THE THREE DEGREES ARE FINITE AND CREATED. In the Lord the three degrees of height are infinite and uncreate, because the Lord is Love itself and Wisdom itself (as has been already shown); and because the Lord is Love itself and Wisdom itself, He is also Use itself. For love has use for its end, and brings fort... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dlw§ion=230 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Love and Wisdom 279 279. This is corroborated by the following: The angels who are with man perceive separately the things that are from the mind in the act, the spiritual angels perceiving those things therein that are from the understanding, and the celestial angels those things therein that are from the will. This appears incredible, but it is true. It should be known, however, that the things of the mind pertaini... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dlw§ion=279 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Love and Wisdom 290 290. THE LORD FROM ETERNITY, THAT IS, JEHOVAH, BROUGHT FORTH FROM HIMSELF THE SUN OF THE SPIRITUAL WORLD, AND FROM THAT CREATED THE UNIVERSE AND ALL THINGS THEREOF.

Spiritual heat and... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dlw§ion=290 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Love and Wisdom 345 345. (5) This is effected by the lowest spiritual separated from what is above it. It was shown in Part Third that the spiritual flows down from its sun even to the outmosts of nature through three degrees, which are called the celestial, the spiritual, and the natural; that these three degrees are in man from creation, consequently from birth; that they are opened according to man's life; that if... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dlw§ion=345 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Providence 166 166. Man, however, is taught by enlightenment, because being taught and enlightened are predicated of the understanding; for the understanding, which is man's internal sight, is enlightened by spiritual light just as the eye or man's external sight is enlightened by natural light. Moreover, both are similarly taught; but the internal sight, which is that of the understanding, is taught by spiritua... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dp§ion=166 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Providence 167 167. As the light of heaven has now been spoken of, something must also be said about the light of hell. This also is of three degrees: light in the lowest hell is like that of burning coals; light in the middle hell is like that from the flame of a fire on a hearth; and light in the highest hell is like the light from candles, and to some like the light of the moon by night. These lights are not... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dp§ion=167 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Providence 255 255. 2. The merely natural man confirms himself against the Divine Providence when he sees that the Mohammedan religion is accepted by so many empires and kingdoms. That this form of religion is accepted by more kingdoms than the Christian religion may be a stumbling-block to those who think about the Divine Providence, and who at the same time believe that no one can be saved unless he has been b... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dp§ion=255 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Providence 318 318. But how man's state is changed by the confirmations of falsities and persuasions derived from them will now be explained in the following order: 1. There is nothing that cannot be confirmed, and falsity more readily than truth. 2. Truth does not appear when falsity is confirmed, but falsity appears from confirmed truth. 3. To be able to confirm whatever one pl... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dp§ion=318 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Providence 324 324. Since from these considerations it may also be seen that the Divine Providence is none other than predestination to heaven and cannot be changed into any other, it falls to be shown here in the order set forth that the end of creation is a heaven from the human race. First: Every man is created that he may live for ever. In the treatise THE DIVINE LOVE AND WISDOM, Parts Third and Fifth, it is... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dp§ion=324 The Book of the Apocalypse Revealed, Uncovering the Secrets That Were Foretold There and Have Lain Hidden until Now 49 49. Verse 15. And His feet were like unto fine brass, as if glowing in a furnace, signifies the Divine good natural. "The feet" of the Lord signify His Divine natural; "fire" or "glowing" signifies good; and "fine brass" signifies the good of natural truth; therefore, by "the feet of the Son of man like unto fine brass, as if glowing in a furnace,"... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=ar§ion=49
