Arcana Coelestia (Potts) n. 6409

Previous Number Next Number Next Translation See Latin 

6409. His bread is fat. That this signifies delight from good, is evident from the signification of "fat," as being delight; for by "fatness" is signified what is celestial, or the good of love (see n. 353, 5943); but when the word "fat" is used, and is joined to "bread," which signifies the good of love, then by "fat" is signified the delight of this love. (That "bread" signifies the good of love may be seen above, n. 276, 680, 2165, 2177, 3464, 3478, 3735, 3813, 4211, 4217, 4735, 4976, 5915.)
