Arcana Coelestia (Potts) n. 9727

Previous Number Next Number Next Translation See Latin 

9727. Of brass. That this signifies which also is from good, is evident from the signification of "brass," as being external or natural good (see n. 425, 1551). As by the "grating, a network round about the altar" is signified the sensuous of the Lord's Divine Human (n. 9726), therefore the good which is here signified is the Divine good of His Divine love. All things of the Lord's Divine Human are from this good.
