AR 344 & 347 - receiving the Lord

AR 344
"Angel and 'sent" in the Hebrew language,
are expressed by one word;
hence it is that the Lord so often calls Himself
"sent by the Father,"
by which is meant the Divine Human.
But "an angel," in a relative sense,
is every one who receives the Lord,
both in heaven and in the world.

AR 347
It should be known,
that the Lord looks at the angels in the forehead,
while they look at the Lord through the eyes;
by reason that the Lord looks at all from the good of love,
and wills that they, on their part,
should look at Him from the truths of wisdom;
in this manner conjunction is effected.
