10304. And shalt put it before the Testimony in the Tent of meeting. That this signifies the worship of the Lord in heaven and in the church, is evident from the signification of the "incense," which was to be put before the Testimony, as being worship (see above, n. 10298); from the signification of "the Testimony," as being the Lord as to Divine truth (n. 9503); and from the representation of the Tent of meeting, as being heaven (n. 9457, 9481, 9485); and as it denotes heaven, it also denotes the church, for the church is heaven on earth.
