TREE, a, signifies man, 135.  The tree of life signifies man living from God, or God living in man, 135.  To eat of this tree signifies to receive eternal life, 135.  The tree of the knowledge of good and evil, signifies the belief that life for man is not God, but self, 135.  By eating thereof signifies damnation, 135.

TRINITY, the Divine, is in Jesus Christ, in whom dwells all the fulness of the Godhead bodily, 24.

TRUTH.—­What the understanding perceives and thinks is called truth, 490.  Truth is the form of good, 198, 493.  There is the truth of good, and from this the good of truth, or truth grounded in good, and good grounded in that truth; and in these two principles is implanted from creation an inclination to join themselves together into one, 88.  The truth of good, or truth grounded in good, is male (or masculine), and the good of truth, or good grounded in truth, is female (or feminine), 61, 88.  See Good and Truth.

TRUTH does not admit of reasonings, 481.

TRUTHS pertain to the understanding, 128.

TWO.—­In every part of the body where there are not two, they are divided into two, 316.

TZIIM.—­In hell, the forms of birds, and under which the lascivious delights of adulterous love are presented to the view, are birds called tziim, 430.

ULCERS, 253.

ULTIMATE.—­It is a universal law that things primary exist, subsist, and persist from things ultimate, 44.  That the ultimate state is such as the successive order is, from which it is formed and exists, is a canon which, from its truth, must be acknowledged in the learned world, 313.

ULYSSES, companions of, changed into hogs, 521.

UNCHASTITY, difference between, and what is not chaste, 139.  Unchastity is entirely opposed to chastity, 139.  There is a conjugial love which is not chaste, and yet is not unchastity, 139.  The love opposite to conjugial love is essential unchastity, 139.  If the renunciations of whoredoms be not made from a principle of religion, unchastity lies inwardly concealed like corrupt matter in a wound only outwardly healed, 149.

UNCLEAN or FILTHY, every, principle of hell is from adulterers, 500.

UNCLEANNESS, 252, 472.

UNDERSTANDING, the.—­Man has understanding from heavenly light, 233.  The understanding considered in itself is merely the ministering and serving principle of the will, 196.  It is only the form of the will, 493.  Man is capable of elevating his intellect above his natural loves, 96.  See Will and Understanding.

UNION.—­Spiritual union of two married partners is the actual adjunction of the soul and mind of the one to the soul and mind of the other, 321.  Conjugial love is the union of souls, 179, 480, 482.  Union between two married partners in heaven is like that of the two tents in the breast, which are called the heart and the lungs, 75.

UNITY, the, of souls between two married partners in heaven is seen in their faces; the life of the husband is in the wife, and the life of the wife is in the husband—­they are two bodies but one soul, 75.
