Arcana Coelestia (Potts) n. 10034

10034. And shalt burn them on the altar. That this signifies from the Lord's Divine love, is evident from the signification of "burning," as being the kindling of the Divine love; and from the representation of the altar, as being a representative of the Lord in respect to the Divine good of love (see n. 9388, 9389, 9714). That "to burn" denotes the kindling of the Divine love, is because the Divine love was signified by the fire upon the altar (n. 6832).
