ultimate principle, it is from its origin natural,
158. The supreme principles in man are turned
upwards to God, the middle principles outwards to
the world, and the lowest principles downwards to self,
269. In man are all the affections of love, and
thence all the perceptions of wisdom, compounded in
the most perfect order, so as to make together what
is unanimous, and thereby a one, 361. Man, as
to the affections and thoughts of his mind, is in
the midst of angels and spirits, and is so consociated
with them, that were he to be plucked asunder from
them, he would instantly die, 28. Man was created
for uses, 249. Man is male and female, 32.
The male man and the female man were so created, that
from two they may become as it were one man, or one
flesh; and when they become one, then, taken together,
they are a man (
homo) in his fulness; but without
such conjunctions they are two, and each is a divided
or half man, 37. Man was born to be wisdom, and
the woman to be the love of the man’s wisdom,
75. Man is such as his love is, and not such
as his understanding is, 269. The natural man,
separate from the spiritual, is only man as to the
understanding, and not as to the will; such a one
is only half man, 432. A spiritual man is sensible
of, and perceives spiritual delight, which is a thousand
times superior to natural delight, 29. Man lives
a man after death, 28. Man after death is not
a natural man, but a spiritual or substantial man,
31. A spiritual or substantial man sees a spiritual
or substantial man, as a natural or material man sees
a natural or material man, 31. Man after death
puts off every thing which does not agree with his
love, yea, he successively puts on the countenance,
the tone of voice, the speech, the gestures, and the
manners of the love proper to his life, 36; instead
of a material body he enjoys a substantial one, wherein
natural delight grounded in spiritual is made sensible
in its eminence, 475. Men left in the forests
when they were about two or three years old, 151*,

MARRIAGE-APARTMENT of the will and understanding,
270.
MARRIAGE is the fulness of man (homo), for
by it a man becomes a full man, 156; thus a state
of marriage is preferable to a state of celibacy,
156. Consent is the essential of marriage, and
all succeeding ceremonies are its formalities, 21.
The covenant of marriage is for life, 276. Marriages
in themselves are spiritual, and thence holy, 53.
Marriages are the seminaries of the human race, and
thence also the seminaries of the heavenly kingdom,
481. Marriages made in the world are for the most
part external, and not at the same time internal, when
yet it is the internal conjunction, or conjunction
of souls, which constitutes a real marriage, 49, 274.
Marriages interiorly conjunctive can hardly be entered
into in the world, the reason why, 320, 49. Of
