Previous Number Next Number Next Translation See Latin 

10077. 'And one loaf of bread' means inmost celestial good from the Lord. This is clear from the meaning of 'bread' as celestial good, dealt with in 2165, 2177, 3478, 9545. Celestial good is the good of love to the Lord, the reason why it is called celestial being that it is the celestial kingdom's good.
