89. Since in the whole Word and in every part of it there is the marriage of the Lord and the Church, it may be evident that all things of the Word, in general and in particular, treat of the Lord, as is shown in THE DOCTRINE OF THE LORD, Nos. 1-7. The Church, which is likewise treated of, is also the Lord; for the Lord teaches that the man of the Church is in Him, and He in him, John vi 56; xiv 20, 21; xv 5, 7.
