10052. 'And you shall burn the whole ram on the altar' means the internal of the Lord's Divine Human united to the Divine Good of His Divine Love, which was within Him. This is clear from the meaning of 'burning' as uniting to the Divine Good of Divine Love, dealt with below; from the meaning of 'the ram' as that which is internal with a person, and so in the highest sense as the internal of the Lord's Divine Human, dealt with in 10042; and from the meaning of 'the altar' as the chief representative of the Lord's Divine Human in respect of His Divine Good, dealt with immediately above in 10051(end).
[2] It should be remembered that with everyone there is that which is internal and that which is external, called his internal man and external man; that when a person is being regenerated he is being regenerated as to both the internal and the external; and that regeneration is the joining together of good and truth in both. A similar process took place in the Lord's Human. Yet it cannot be said that His Human was regenerated, only that it was glorified, because what was inmost in Him, which in a person is called the soul from the father, was Divinity itself; for He was conceived from Jehovah. Divinity itself is the Divine Good of Divine Love. And since the Lord united His Human to this and thereby also made Divine His Human, it cannot be said that His Human was regenerated, only that it was glorified; for glorifying means making Divine, see immediately below in 10053. The glorification of His internal man, that is, of His internal Human, is what the representative signs associated with the burnt offerings of rams and of lambs serve to describe.
[3] 'Burning the whole ram on the altar' means uniting the Divine Good of Divine Love to the internal of His Human. It does so firstly because the altar was representative of the Lord's Divine Human, and the fire on the altar, which burned the offering, meant the Divine Good of Divine Love, as may recognized from the places referred to immediately above in 10051(end), and secondly because 'the ram' - the offering that was burned - means that which is internal with a person, and so the internal of the Lord's Human, 10042. From all this it is evident that 'you shall burn the whole ram on the altar as a burnt offering' means the internal of the Lord's Human united to the Divine Good of His Divine Love, which was within Him.
