AE 395 - "Rejoice in Jehovah"; AE 397 - Angels and Spirits

AE 395 [12]

"I will greatly rejoice in Jehovah,
my soul shall exult in my God;
for He has clothed me with the garments of salvation;
He has covered me with a cloak of justice."
(Isaiah 61:10)

To rejoice in Jehovah,
means to rejoice in Divine good;
to exult in God, means, in the Divine truth;
for the Lord is called Jehovah from Divine good,
and God from Divine truth;
and all spiritual joy is from them.
To clothe with the garments of salvation,
means to instruct and gift with truths;
and to cover with a cloak of Justice,
means to fill with every truth from good,
a cloak denoting all truth
because it denotes truth in general,
justice being said of good.

AE 397

. . . all consociations (associations) in the spiritual world
are effected according to the agreement of affections,
and of the thoughts from them,
for angels and spirits are nothing
but affections and the thought from them
in a human form . . ..
