215. Government in the Lord's spiritual kingdom is called JUDGMENT, because they are in spiritual good, which is the good of charity towards the neighbour; and this good in its essence is truth,# and truth pertains to judgment and good to justice.## These, too, are led by the Lord, but mediately (n. 208), therefore, they have governors, fewer or more according to the need of the society in which they are. They also have laws according to which they live together. The governors administer all things in accordance with the laws. They understand these because they are wise, and, in doubtful matters, they are enlightened by the Lord. # Those in the spiritual kingdom are in truths, and those in the celestial kingdom are in good (n. 863, 875, 927, 1023, 1043, 1044, 1555, 2256, 4328, 4493, 5113, 9596). The good of the spiritual kingdom is the good of charity towards the neighbour and this good in Its essence is truth (n. 8042, 10296). ## In the Word "justice" is predicated of good, and "judgment" of truth, therefore "to do justice and judgment" means good and truth (n. 2235, 9857). "Great judgments" means the law of Divine order, thus Divine truths (n. 7206).
