235# 属灵天使在圣言的属灵意义中，属天天使在其属天意义中；此点，已由诸多经验向我显证。我曾蒙准知觉：当我依圣言字义诵读圣言时，即与诸天相交通；或与其中此群体，或与彼群体。我按属世意义所解者，属灵天使按属灵意义解之，属天天使按属天意义解之；且皆成于顷刻。
此种交通既已为我知觉数千次，故对此不复留有丝毫疑惑。又有诸天以下之灵，妄用此交通；盖他们诵念圣言字义中的若干语句，即刻察认并记取与之交通之群体；此事我亦屡次亲见亲闻。由此，我藉亲证之经验得知：圣言就其字义而言，乃与主相联、并与天堂天使相交之神性媒介。
235# 大量经历已经向我证明，属灵天使处于圣言的属灵意义，属天天使处于圣言的属天意义。我被恩准感知到，当我阅读圣言的字义时，与天堂的共享或交流就实现了，有时是与这一个社群的共享或交流，有时是与另一个社群的共享或交流。我照着属世意义来理解，属灵天使照着属灵意义来理解，属天天使则照着属天意义来理解，并且这是瞬间的。我已经数千次地感知到这种共享或交流，所以对此毫不怀疑。此外，一些住在天堂之下的灵人滥用这种共享或交流；他们从圣言的字义中重复一些经文，立即观察并记录与之交流或共享的社群。我也经常看到并听到这种事。因此，我通过活生生的经历得以知道，字义上的圣言是与主结合并与天堂天使联系的神性媒介。
235. A number of experiences have made it obvious to me that spiritual angels are associated with the Word's spiritual meaning and heavenly angels are associated with the Word's heavenly meaning. I was allowed to perceive that a line of communication to the heavens opened up while I was reading the Word in its literal meaning - at one moment to one community, at another moment to another community. The things that I understood in the earthly meaning the spiritual angels understood in the spiritual meaning and the heavenly angels understood in the heavenly meaning. It was instantaneous. Having perceived this communication several thousand times, I have no room left for doubt about it.
In fact, there are spirits below the heavens who abuse this communication. They recite some saying from the Word's literal meaning and immediately observe and record the community that it communicates with. This too I have often seen and heard.
I have been allowed to know through living experience, then, that the Word in its literal meaning is a divine medium for connecting us to the Lord and associating us with angels in heaven.
235. It has been made evident to me by long experience that the spiritual angels possess the spiritual sense of the Word, and the celestial angels its celestial sense. I have been allowed to perceive that, when I read the Word in its literal sense, communication was established with the heavens, at one time with one community there, at another time with another. The words which I understood in their natural sense were understood by the spiritual angels in their spiritual sense, and by the celestial angels in their celestial sense, and this too upon the instant. Since I have perceived this communication some thousands of times, I have no doubt left concerning it. There are also spirits below the heavens who misuse this communication; for they repeat some verses from the literal sense of the Word, and immediately notice and mark down the community with which communication is established. This too I have seen and heard many times. These direct experiences have enabled me to know that the Word in its literal sense is a Divine means of being linked with the Lord and associated with the angels in heaven.
235. That the spiritual angels are in the spiritual sense of the Word, and the celestial angels in its celestial sense, has been made evident to me by much experience. It has been granted to me to perceive that when I read the Word in the sense of its letter a sharing with the heavens was effected, now with this society there and now with that; and the things that I understood according to the natural sense the spiritual angels understood according to the spiritual sense, and the celestial angels according to the celestial sense, and this instantly. Having perceived this sharing some thousands of times, I have not the least doubt about it remaining. Moreover, there are spirits who are below the heavens, who abuse this sharing by reciting certain passages from the sense of the letter of the Word, and immediately observing and noting the society with which the sharing is effected. This, too, I have often seen and heard. In this way it has been given me to know by a living experience, that the Word in the sense of its letter is the Divine medium of conjunction with the Lord and affiliation with the angels of heaven.
235. It has been proved to me by much experience that the spiritual angels are in the spiritual sense of the Word, and the celestial angels in its celestial sense. It has been granted me to perceive that, while I was reading the Word in the sense of the Letter, communication was opened with the heavens, sometimes with one society, sometimes with another. What I understood according to the natural sense, spiritual angels understood according to the spiritual sense, and this instantly. As I have perceived this communication thousands of times, I have not any doubt left concerning it. Moreover, some spirits, dwelling under the heavens, abuse this communication. They repeat some passages from the sense of the Letter of the Word, forthwith observing and making a note of the society with which communication is effected. I have frequently seen and heard this being done. Thus by actual experience it has been granted me to know that the Word, as to the sense of its Letter, is the Divine medium of conjunction with the Lord, and of association with the angels of heaven.
235. Quod Angeli spirituales in Sensu spirituali Verbi sint, ac Angeli coelestes in Sensu coelesti ejus, manifestatum est mihi per multam experientiam: datum est percipere, quod cum legi Verbum in Sensu literae ejus, communicatio facta sit cum Coelis, nunc cum hac Societate ibi, nunc cum illa; quae ego secundum Sensum naturalem intellexi, Angeli spirituales secundum Sensum spiritualem, et Angeli coelestes secundum Sensum coelestem, intellexerunt; et hoc in instanti; quia haec communicatio, per aliquot millenas vices percepta est, de illa non relicta est mihi ulla dubitatio. Sunt etiam Spiritus, qui infra Coelos sunt, et hac communicatione abutuntur, recitant enim aliquot dicta ex Sensu literae Verbi, et illico animadvertunt et notant Societatem, cum qua communicatio fit; hoc etiam saepe vidi et audivi. Ex his per vivam experientiam datum est scire, quod Verbum quoad sensum literae ejus, sit Divinum medium conjunctionis cum Domino, et consociationis cum Angelis coeli.
