Arcana Coelestia (Potts) n. 9888

Previous Number Next Number Next Translation See Latin 

9888. Over against the faces thereof. That this signifies to eternity, is evident from the signification of "over against the faces," as being to eternity; for by the "breastplate" is signified heaven and every good and truth that constitutes it (n. 9879). That which is over against the faces there is in the Lord's perpetual view, thus is preserved to eternity.
