AC 9995 - Bread, Cakes; Grinding

AC 9995 [3, 8]

The external way, by which truth enters,
is through the hearing and sight into the understanding;
but the internal way,
by which good flows in from the Lord,
is through his inmost into the will.

. . . the celestial goods signified by
the "bread, cakes, and wafers of unleavened things"
come forth from the Divine truth
that proceeds from the Lord's Divine good;
and that this is meant by
"of fine flour of wheat thou shalt make them."

. . . what is meant by "grinding;"
that in a good sense it denotes
to select truths from the Word
and explain them so as to be of service to good;
and in a bad sense so as to be of service to evil;
from which it is also evident what is signified by
that which is ground,
consequently by "meal," and "fine flour."
