9046. 'As the master of the woman imposes on him' means till it agrees with the truth that goes with the good. This is clear from the meaning of 'as he imposes on him', when it refers to a fine, as amendment to the point of satisfaction, thus to the point at which there is agreement, dealt with below; from the meaning of 'the master' - 'the master of the woman', that is, her man or husband - as truth; and from the meaning of 'the woman' as good. For 'the master of a woman', or her man, in the spiritual sense of the Word means truth, and 'the woman' good, because the marriage of a man to a woman represents the marriage of truth and good, 915, 2517, 4510, 4823. 'Amendment till it agrees' is used to mean compensating for injury caused through premature birth, in the spiritual sense through the delivery of good springing from truths or the sending out of such good from the internal man into the external or natural man in a way that is not right and orderly. The compensation has been paid or the restoration made when agreement is reached; and this is reached when the external or natural man does not act independently but under the direction of the internal or spiritual man. For the internal must reside within the external, or the spiritual within the natural, as the soul does within its body. When this comes about the external or natural receives its life from the life of the internal, which is the new life or the life a regenerated person has.
