AC 9806
. . . by "Moses causing Aaron his brother to draw near unto him"
is signified the conjunction of Divine truth
with Divine good in the Lord.
That it signifies in His Divine Human,
is because this was the very thing
in which this conjunction was effected;
for the Lord first made His Human Divine truth,
and afterward Divine good.
That Aaron was chosen to minister in the priesthood,
was because he was the brother of Moses;
for in this way there was at the same time
represented the brotherhood
of Divine truth and Divine good in heaven,
because as before said,
Moses represented Divine truth,
and Aaron Divine good.
[2]
All things in the universe, both in heaven and in the world,
bear relation to good and to truth in order to be anything;
for good is the being of truth,
and truth is the coming-forth of good;
and therefore good without truth does not come-forth,
and truth without good has no being;
from which it is evident that they must be conjoined.
[7]
. . . "the Son of Man," as before said,
denotes the Divine truth;
the Father from whom it proceeds,
denotes the Divine good.
