10106. 'And Aaron and his sons shall eat the flesh of the ram' means the making of spiritual good their own by those who are at home with internal things, from the Lord. This is clear from the meaning of 'eating' as making one's own, dealt with in 3168, 3513(end), 3596, 4745; from the representation of 'Aaron and his sons' as the Lord in respect of Divine Good and Divine Truth, dealt with in 9806, 9807, 10068, at this point that Good and Truth in the heavens since 'filling the hand', which means the transmission and the reception of them, is the subject; and from the meaning of 'the flesh of the ram' as the good of the internal man or good on internal levels ('flesh' means good, see 3813, 7850, 9127, and 'the ram' the good of innocence and charity in the internal man, 9991, 10042). The words 'the Lord in respect of Divine Good and Divine Truth in the heavens, and the transmission and the reception of that Good and Truth there' are used because the Lord is above the heavens. He is the Sun of heaven and is also actually seen by those in heaven as the Sun; and all the light the heavens have comes from this. By means of the light and heat from it He is present in the heavens, so much so that He seems to be present there entirely; for He fills the heavens and constitutes them. The light radiating from Him as the Sun is essentially Divine Truth, from which angels derive the wisdom and intelligence they possess. And the heat radiating from Him as the Sun is the Divine Good of His Divine Love there. The transmission and the reception of this Divine Good and that Divine Truth in the heavens is what 'filling the hand' means.
The Lord is the Sun of heaven, the source of the light and heat in the heavens from which angels derive the life, that is, the wisdom and love, they possess, see 3636, 3643, 4321(end), 5097, 7078, 7083, 7171, 7173, 7270, 8644, 8812.
