Angelic Wisdom about Divine Love and Wisdom 65 65. THE USES OF ALL CREATED THINGS ASCEND BY DEGREES FROM LAST THINGS TO MAN, AND THROUGH MAN TO GOD THE CREATOR, FROM WHOM THEY ARE. Last things, as was said above, are each and all things of the mineral kingdom, which are materials of various kinds, of a stony, saline, oily, mineral, or metallic nature, covered over with soil formed of vegetable and animal matters reduced to the finest dus... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dlw§ion=65 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Love and Wisdom 154 154. The universe and all things thereof were created by the Lord, the sun of the spiritual world serving as a medium, because that sun is the first proceeding of Divine Love and Divine Wisdom, and from Divine Love and Divine Wisdom all things are (as was pointed out above, n. 52-82). In every thing created, greatest as well as least, there are these three, end, cause and effect. A created thing i... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dlw§ion=154 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Love and Wisdom 184 184. DEGREES ARE OF A TWOFOLD KIND, DEGREES OF HEIGHT AND DEGREES OF BREADTH. A knowledge of degrees is like a key to lay open the causes of things, and to give entrance into them. Without this knowledge, scarcely anything of cause can be known; for without it, the objects and subjects of both worlds seem to have but a single meaning, as if there were nothing in them beyond that which meets... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dlw§ion=184 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Love and Wisdom 185 185. Each and all things that have existence in the spiritual world and in the natural world, have conjoint existence from discrete degrees and from continuous degrees together, that is, from degrees of height and from degrees of breadth. The dimension which consists of discrete degrees is called height, and the dimension that consists of continuous degrees is called breadth; their position relati... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dlw§ion=185 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Love and Wisdom 189 189. DEGREES OF HEIGHT ARE HOMOGENEOUS, AND ONE IS FROM THE OTHER IN SUCCESSION LIKE END, CAUSE, AND EFFECT. As degrees of breadth, that is continuous degrees, are like gradations from light to shade, from heat to cold, from hard to soft, from dense to rare, from thick to thin, and so forth; and as these degrees are known from sensuous and ocular experience, while degrees of height, or discr... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dlw§ion=189 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Love and Wisdom 190 190. All things which have existence in the world, of which threefold dimension is predicated, that is, which are called compounds, consist of degrees of height, that is, discrete degrees; as examples will make clear. It is known from ocular experience, that every muscle in the human body consists of minute fibers, and these put together into little bundles form larger fibers, called motor fibers,... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dlw§ion=190 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Love and Wisdom 202 202. In the spiritual world there are three heavens, arranged according to degrees of height. In the highest heavens are angels superior in every perfection to the angels in the middle heaven; and in the middle heaven are angels superior in every perfection to the angels in the lowest heaven. The degrees of perfections are such, that angels of the lowest heaven cannot attain to the first threshold... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dlw§ion=202 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Love and Wisdom 235 235. Of the threefold ascent of the degrees of height this much has been said in general; but these degrees cannot here be discussed in detail, because (as was said in the preceding chapter) there must be these three degrees in things greatest and things least; this only need be said, that there are such degrees in each and all things of love, and therefrom in each and all things of wisdom, and fr... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dlw§ion=235 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Love and Wisdom 275 275. (3) The three degrees of the natural mind that is a form and image of hell, are opposite to the three degrees of the spiritual mind which is a form and image of heaven. It has been shown above that there are three degrees of the mind, called natural, spiritual, and celestial, and that the human mind, made up of these degrees, looks towards heaven, and turns itself about in that direction. Fro... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dlw§ion=275 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Love and Wisdom 286 286. That God unless He were a Man could not have created the universe and all things thereof, may be clearly apprehended by any intelligent person from this, that he cannot deny that in God there is Love and Wisdom, mercy and clemency, and also goodness itself and truth itself, inasmuch as these are from God. And because he cannot deny this, neither can he deny that God is a Man; for abstractly f... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dlw§ion=286 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Love and Wisdom 351 351. Those who believe in a Divine operation in all the details of nature, are able by very many things they see in nature to confirm themselves in favor of the Divine, as fully as others confirm themselves in favor of nature, yea, more fully. For those who confirm themselves in favor of the Divine give attention to the wonders which are displayed in the production both of plants and animals. In t... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dlw§ion=351 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Love and Wisdom 392 392.

It... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dlw§ion=392 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Love and Wisdom 405 405. That these three from the will's love follow in order in the understanding can, indeed, be comprehended by the rational man but yet cannot be clearly seen and thus so proved as to command belief. But as love that is of the will acts as one with the heart by correspondence, and wisdom that is of the understanding acts as one with the lungs (as has been shown above) therefore what has been said... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dlw§ion=405 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Love and Wisdom 408 408. (10) Love or the will introduces wisdom or the understanding into all things of its house. By the house of love or the will is meant the whole man as to all things of his mind; and as these correspond to all things of the body (as shown above), by the house is meant also the whole man as to all things of his body, called members, organs, and viscera. That the lungs are introduced into all the... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dlw§ion=408 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Love and Wisdom 426 426. (21) Spiritual and celestial love is love toward the neighbor and love to the Lord; and natural and sensual love is love of the world and love of self. By love toward the neighbor is meant the love of uses, and by love to the Lord is meant the love of doing uses (as has been shown before). These loves are spiritual and celestial, because loving uses and doing them from a love of them, is dist... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dlw§ion=426 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Love and Wisdom 432 432. WHAT MAN'S BEGINNING IS FROM CONCEPTION. What man's beginning or primitive form is in the womb after conception no one can know, because it cannot be seen; moreover, it is made up of spiritual substance, which is not visible by natural light. Now because there are some in the world who are eager to investigate even the primitive form of man, which is seed from the father, from which con... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dlw§ion=432 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Providence 72 72. But as few know that this can be a law of the Divine Providence, chiefly because man has thus freedom also to think evil and falsity, although the Divine Providence is continually leading man to think and to will what is good and true, therefore, that this may be clearly perceived it will be set forth distinctly step by step in the following order: I. Man has reason and freedom, or... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dp§ion=72 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Providence 168 168. As few know anything about the enlightenment which affects the understanding of a man who is taught by the Lord, something will now be said about it. There is an interior and an exterior enlightenment from the Lord; and there is an interior and an exterior enlightenment from man. Interior enlightenment from the Lord consists in a man's perceiving at first hearing whether what is said is true... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dp§ion=168 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Providence 174 174. V. MAN IS LED AND TAUGHT BY THE LORD IN EXTERNALS TO ALL APPEARANCE AS OF HIMSELF. This takes place in man's externals but not in his internals. No one knows how the Lord leads and teaches man in his internals just as no one knows how the soul operates to cause the eye to see, the ear to hear, the tongue and mouth to speak, the heart to keep the blood in motion, the lungs to breathe, the stom... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dp§ion=174 Angelic Wisdom about Divine Providence 180 180. II. IF A MAN SAW CLEARLY THE DIVINE PROVIDENCE HE WOULD INTERPOSE IN THE ORDER AND TENOR OF ITS COURSE, AND WOULD PERVERT AND DESTROY THAT ORDER. In order that this may come within the clear perception of the rational man and also of the natural man it may be illustrated by examples and in this order: 1. There is such a connection between external and internal things that they make... http://www.smallcanonsearch.com/read.php?book=dp§ion=180
