6137. Buy us and our ground for bread. That this signifies the appropriation of both receptacles that they may be sustained with good, is evident from the signification of "buying," as being appropriation (see n. 4397, 5374, 5397, 5406, 5410, 5426); from the signification of "us and our ground," as being the receptacles of good and truth (as above, n. 6135, 6136), thus both receptacles; and from the signification of, "for bread," as being sustenance from good. That "bread" is the good both of love and of faith, is because by it is meant also all food in general (n. 6118).
