1875、我被允许感知主祷文中基于下面这句话的天使观念,即:“不叫我们遇见试探,救我们脱离凶恶”(马太福音6:13;路加福音11:4)。离我最近的善灵开始通过我里面可感知的某种观念消除“试探”和“凶恶”,他们如此彻底地弃绝这些观念,直到纯天使的东西,即良善保留下来,没有任何试探和凶恶的概念;字义就这样完全消失了。在消除的过程中,第一步是形成关于该良善的无数观念,即:良善如何从一个人的苦难中出来,而苦难来源于这个人和他的邪恶,这邪恶就含有惩罚在里面。伴随这些观念的,是对以下观点的一种愤慨,即:任何人都应该想到试探及其邪恶来自其它某个源头,并且任何人在想到主时,都应该想到邪恶。这些观念随着它们升得越来越高而逐渐被洁净。它们的上升由前面(1393节)所描述的消除来代表,并且消除以一种无法描述的方式迅速完成,直到最后这些观念进入我思维的阴影中。那时,它们在天堂中,那里只有关于主之良善的无法形容的天使观念。

[NCE]1875. I was given the opportunity to perceive angels' ideas on the following words in the Lord's Prayer: "Do not lead us into crisis but free us from evil" [Matthew 6:13; Luke 11:4]. The good spirits nearest me discarded crisis and evil by a certain way of thinking perceptible to me. They rejected those ideas so thoroughly that what remained was purely angelic; specifically, what was left was goodness, without a hint of crisis or evil. In this way, the literal meaning died away completely. The first step of the process was to form countless ideas of this goodness — how something beneficial comes of our affliction, and yet the affliction rises out of us and our evil, which contains its own penalty. Attached to these ideas was a kind of indignation that anyone should think that crises and their evils come from anywhere else, and that anyone should think about evil when thinking about the Lord. These ideas were purified as they rose higher and higher. Their journey upward was represented by the discarding of certain elements, as also described in 1393. These elements were discarded in a manner and with a speed that are impossible to express, until the ideas finally passed into an area of thought that was shadowy to me. Then they were in heaven, where the angels think only of the Lord's goodness, in thoughts that are ineffable.

1875. It was granted me to have a perception of angelic ideas about these words in the Lord's Prayer: "Lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil." Temptation and evil were rejected by the nearest good spirits, by a certain idea perceptible within me, and this even until what is purely angelic, namely, Good,, remained, without any idea of temptation and evil; the literal sense thus perishing altogether. In the first rejection innumerable ideas were being formed respecting this Good-how good may come from man's affliction while the affliction still is from the man and his evil, in which there is punishment, and this with a kind of indignation joined with it that it should be thought that temptation and its evil come from any other source, and that anyone should have any thought of evil in thinking of the Lord. These ideas were purified in the degree of their ascent. The ascents were represented by rejections (spoken of also n. 1393), which were made with a rapidity and in a manner that were inexpressible, until they passed into the shade of my thought. They were then in heaven, where there are only ineffable angelic ideas concerning the Lord's good.

1875. I was allowed to see the angelic ideas surrounding these words in the Lord's Prayer, 'Do not lead us into temptation, but deliver us from evil'. Good spirits nearest to me began to remove 'temptation' and 'evil' by a certain idea that was perceptible within me, and this they continued to do until that which was purely angelic, that is, good, remained, and no idea of temptation or evil was there - the literal sense thereby perishing altogether. Of that good countless ideas were being formed when that removal first began - ideas of how good may come out of a person's affliction when yet the affliction originates in that person and in his evil, which holds punishment within it. And coupled with these ideas there was a kind of indignation that people should suppose that temptation and the evil going with it should come from any other source, and that there should be any thought of evil when they thought about the Lord. These ideas were being purified every time they rose up higher. These risings were represented by removals, also described in 1393, which were carried out with a rapidity and in a manner that were indescribable, until they passed into the shadowy side of my thought. At that point they were in heaven where angelic ideas beyond words exist regarding that good which is the Lord's.

1875. Datum appercipere ideas angelicas in Oratione Domini circa haec verba, 'ne inducas nos in tentationem, sed libera nos a malo'; a spiritibus bonis proximis idea quadam apud me perceptibili rejiciebatur 'tentatio et malum,' et hoc eo usque, dum pure angelicum, nempe 'bonum,' absque idea tentationis et mali, remaneret, pereunte sic prorsus sensu litterali; de quo bono in prima rejectione formabantur innumerabiles ideae, quomodo bonum ex afflictione hominis veniat, et usque afflictio ex homine et ejus malo cui inest poena, et hoc cum adjuncta specie indignationis quod opinarentur tentationem et ejus malum aliunde venire, et quod cogitandum de malo, cum de Domino; hae ideae purificabantur quo ascendebant altius; ascensus repraesentati sunt per rejectiones, de quibus etiam n. 1393, quae fiebant velocitate et modo inexpressibili, usque dum in umbram cogitationis meae transirent; tunc erant in caelo, ubi ideae angelicae ineffabiles solum de bono Domini.
