Arcana Coelestia (Potts) n. 9611

Previous Number Next Number Next Translation See Latin 

9611. And thou shalt make fifty hooks of gold. That this signifies a full capability of conjunction from good, is evident from the signification of "fifty," as being what is full (see n. 9608); from the signification of "the hooks," as being the capability of conjunction, for the capability of conjunction is inherent in them from their form, which is that of something bent backward or curved inward; and from the signification of "gold," as being good (n. 113, 1551, 1552, 5658, 6914, 6917, 9490, 9510).
