9813. 'The sons of Aaron' means things which emanate from the Divine Celestial. This is clear from the meaning of 'the sons' as things which are born from another as from a father, thus things which emanate from it; and from the representation of 'Aaron' as the Lord in respect of the Divine Celestial, dealt with just above in 9810. From this it is evident that by 'the sons of Aaron' things which emanate from the Divine Celestial are meant.
