Arcana Coelestia (Potts) n. 10045

Previous Number Next Number Next Translation See Latin 

10045. And thou shalt slay the ram. That this signifies preparation for the purification of the internal man, is evident from the signification of "slaying," when said of the sacrifice or burnt-offering, as being preparation for purification (see n. 10024); and from the signification of "the ram," as being the internal man (see above, n. 10042).
