Arcana Coelestia (Elliott) n. 6064

6064. 'My father and my brothers' means spiritual good within the natural and the truths of the Church there. This is clear from the representation of Israel, to whom 'father' refers here, as spiritual good within the natural, as in 5801, 5803, 5806, 5812 from the representation of 'the sons of Israel' as the truths of the Church within the natural, dealt with in 5414, 5879, 5951. The influx and perception spoken of immediately above in 6063 have regard to these - to spiritual good and to the truths of the Church within the natural.
