Arcana Coelestia (Elliott) n. 9628

Previous Number Next Number Next Translation See Latin 

9628. 'The half of the additional curtain, shall trail over the back of the dwelling-place' means the last and lowest part of that heaven, that is to say, an extension of it. This is clear from the meaning of 'the additional part trailing backwards' as an extension, dealt with immediately above in 9627; and from the meaning of 'the back of the dwelling-place' as the last and lowest part of that heaven, 'the dwelling-place' meaning the heaven that is the subject here, 9594.
