Arcana Coelestia (Elliott) n. 10120

Previous Number Next Number Next Translation See Latin 

10120. 'Seven days you shall fill their hand' means a representative sign of the Lord's total power in the heavens, which comes through influx from the Divine Good of the Divine Love of His Human. This is clear from the meaning of 'seven days' as a complete state or that which is total, dealt with in 6508, 9228; and from the meaning of 'filling the hand' as a representative sign of the Lord's Divine power in the heavens, and the transmission and the reception of it there, dealt with in 10019. And since this is accomplished by means of influx from the Divine Good of His Divine Love, coming from His Divine Human, this too is meant.
