8830. Go down, charge the people, lest perchance they break through unto Jehovah to see. That this signifies lest they who are of the spiritual church should desire to ascend into the heaven where the Divine celestial is, is evident from the signification of "to charge," as being exhortation; from the representation of the sons of Israel, who are here "the people," as being those who are of the spiritual church (of which frequently above); from the signification of "breaking through," namely, the bounds, as being to desire to ascend into a higher heaven; and from the signification of "seeing Jehovah," as being to perceive the Divine. For by "Jehovah on the head of the mountain" is meant the Divine in the inmost heaven, which is called "the celestial heaven" (see n. 8827); and by "seeing" is meant perception (n. 2150, 3764, 4567, 4723, 5400).
