33. The Divine love and wisdom which form the very essence that is God are the origin of all the affections and thoughts in a person, his affections originating from Divine love, and his thoughts from Divine wisdom. Moreover, each and every constituent of the human being is nothing but affection and thought. These two are, so to speak, the wellsprings of all elements of his life. All the delights and satisfactions of his life arise from them, delights from an affection of his love, and satisfactions from his resulting thought. Now because man was created to be a recipient vessel, and is a recipient vessel in the measure that he loves God and out of love for God becomes wise, which is to say, in the measure that he is affected by those things which are from God and so thinks from that affection, it follows that the Divine essence, as the creative cause, is Divine love and wisdom.
