AC 9571 - "And it shall give light over against the faces of it." (Exodus 25:37)

AC 9571
And it shall give light over against the faces of it.
(Exodus 25:37)
. . ."giving light," as being the Divine truth
that proceeds from the Lord's Divine good. . . .
The illumination from this is the illumination of the mind,
from which come intelligence and wisdom in the truths and goods of faith.
The mind is illuminated by means of the Word,
because the Word is Divine truth from the Lord.
And from the signification of "the faces,"
when said of the Lord,
as being all that which is from the Divine good of His Divine love.
