AC 3596 - what we understand

AC 3596
What is implied by making its own
and joining to itself the truth represented by Jacob
may become clear from what has been stated already.
But because these matters are such
as to be beyond the range of anything
grasped by the natural person
and so cannot be seen
except in the light in which the rational or internal person sees
 - a light in which few see at the present day
because few are regenerate -
it is better not to illustrate them any further,
for the elucidation of things which are not known
and which go beyond the range of a person's understanding
does not throw light on them
but rather puts them in the shade.
Moreover such things are to be built upon ideas of natural truths,
through which they are to be understood,
and at the present day these also are wanting.
This is the reason why the words just preceding
have been explained so briefly,
and merely as to the internal sense of the expressions.
