Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Heavenly Arcana, Vol. 3: Contained in the Holy Scripture, or Word of the Lord, Unfolded At the end of the preceding chapter, the subject of the Last Judgment was treated of, and it was shown what is signified thereby, namely, not the destruction of the world, but the last time of the church. When this is at hand, the Lord says that He "will come in the clouds of the heavens, with power and glory" (Matt. xxiv. 30; Mark xiii. 26; Luke xxi. 27). Hitherto no one has known what is meant by the "clouds of the heavens." But it has been disclosed to me that nothing else is meant than the literal sense of the Word; and by "power and glory" the internal sense of the Word, for in the internal sense of the Word there is glory, since whatever is there is concerning the Lord and His kingdom (see in Part First, n.1769-1772). [2] Similar is the signification of the cloud which encompassed Peter, James, and John, when the Lord appeared to them in glory; of which it is said in Luke: - A voice came out of the cloud, saying, This is My beloved Son, hear ye Him; but when the voice had passed, Jesus was found alone (ix. 35, 36), where by "Moses" and "Elias" who spake with the Lord, was represented the Word of the Old Testament, which is also called "Moses and the Prophets" (by "Moses," his books together with the other historical books, and by "Elias" the prophet, all the books of the Prophets); but by "Peter, James, and John," as in all other places where they are named in the books of the Evangelists, were represented faith, charity, and the good of charity.
