AC 8416
Behold, I am making it rain bread for you from heaven.
That this signifies that heavenly good shall flow in,
is evident from the signification of "raining," as being a blessing;
that "to rain" denotes a blessing
is because rain comes down from heaven
and causes the fertility of the earth,
just as Divine good and truth descend from heaven into a person
and cause a blessing,
whence it can be seen that in the proximate (closest) sense "to rain"
signifies to flow in, for all good from the Divine flows in;
and from the signification of "bread," as being heavenly good.
