AE 329 [2-3]
Spiritual food is all the good
that is communicated and given to a person by the Lord,
and spiritual drink
is all the truth that is communicated and given to a person by the Lord.
These two, namely, good and truth, or love and faith,
make a person spiritual . . ..
Again, spiritual nourishment is from the good and truth
that proceed from the Lord,
as all nourishment of the body is from food and drink;
their correspondence also is from this,
which is such that where anything of food, or that serves for food,
is mentioned in the Word, good is meant,
and where anything of drink, or that serves for drink,
is mentioned, truth is meant.
