10091. 'And you shall sanctify the breast of the wave offering' means the Divine Spiritual acknowledged in heaven and in the Church. This is clear from the meaning of 'sanctifying' as representing the Lord and holy things that spring from Him, dealt with in 9956, 9988; from the meaning of 'the breast' as the Divine Spiritual in heaven, dealt with in 10087; and from the meaning of 'the wave offering' as endowing with life through acknowledgement, dealt with in 10083, 10089. The Divine Spiritual is Divine Truth in the middle or second heaven, the heaven that is also called the spiritual kingdom.
