Arcana Coelestia (Elliott) n. 9626

9626. 'And join the tent together, that it may be one' means that the external part of the heaven is as a result altogether one. This is clear from the meaning of 'the tent' as the external part of heaven, dealt with in 9615. As regards its being as a result altogether one, see 9613, where 'the dwelling-place', meaning the internal part of the heaven, is the subject.
