3452、“便说,让我们之间,就是我们和你之间,立一个誓言,让我们与你立约吧”表示就本身而言,他们的信之教义事物不应该被否认,也就是说,只要它们取自圣言的字义。这从“我们之间的誓言”、“我们和你之间”、“让我们立约”的含义清楚可知:“我们之间的誓言”是指教义事物与圣言字义的和谐一致;“我们和你之间”是指与内义的和谐一致;“让我们立约”是指他们以这种方式能结合在一起,“约”是指结合(参看665, 666, 1023, 1038, 1864, 2003, 2021节)。从这一切流出的意义或观念是:正因如此,就本身而言,他们的信之教义事物不应该被否认,因为如前所述,教义事物只要取自圣言,就永远不会被否认。只要拥有它们的那个人过着仁爱的生活,它们就蒙主悦纳,因为圣言的一切事物都能与这种生活结合。但圣言的内层事物能与存在于仁之内层良善中的生活结合。可参看前面的阐述和引用的内容(3324节)。

3452. And we said, Now let there be an oath between us, between us and thee, and let us cut out a covenant with thee. That this signifies that regarded in themselves the doctrinal things of their faith should not be denied, that is, insofar as they are from the literal sense of the Word, is evident from the signification of "an oath between us," as being the agreement of the doctrinal things with the literal sense of the Word; from the signification of "between us and thee," as being the agreement with the internal sense; and from the signification of "let us cut out a covenant," as being that thus there might be conjunction. (That a "covenant" is conjunction, may be seen above, n. 665, 666, 1023, 1038, 1864, 2003, 2021.) The sense hence resulting is that because this is the case, regarded in themselves the doctrinal things of their faith should not be denied; for as before said no doctrinal things whatever are denied provided they are from the Word, for they are accepted by the Lord provided that he who is in them is in the life of charity, because with this life all things of the Word can be conjoined; but the interior things of the Word are conjoined with the life which is in the interior good of charity. See what has been stated and adduced above (n. 3224).
Elliott(1983-1999) 3452
3452. 'And we said, Let there be now a solemn agreement between us, between us and you, and let us make a covenant with you' means that their matters of doctrine concerning faith, regarded in themselves, should not be refused recognition, that is to say, insofar as they are drawn from the literal sense of the Word. This is clear from the meaning of 'a solemn agreement between us' as the general agreement between matters of doctrine and the literal sense of the Word; from the meaning of 'between us and you' as agreement with the internal sense; and from the meaning of 'let us make a covenant' as the fact that in this way they could be joined together - 'a covenant' meaning a joining together, see 665,666, 1023, 1038, 1864, 2003, 2021. The meaning which flows from all this is that this being so, their matters of doctrine concerning faith, regarded in themselves, should not be refused recognition, for as has been stated, no matters of doctrine at all, provided they are drawn from the Word, are refused recognition. They are acceptable to the Lord provided that the person who possesses them is leading a charitable life, for everything in the Word is able to be joined to that life. But the interior aspects of the Word are able to be joined to the life present in the interior good that flows from charity. See what has been stated and brought forward in 3324.

3452. `Et diximus, Sit quaeso sacramentum inter nos, inter nos et inter te, et excidamus foedus cum te': quod significet quod doctrinalia fidei eorum in se spectata non negarentur, nempe quatenus sunt ex sensu litterali Verbi, constat ex significatione `sacramenti inter nos' quod sit consensio doctrinalium cum sensu litterali Verbi; et a significatione `inter nos et inter te' quod sit concordantia cum sensu interno; et ex significatione `excidamus foedus' quod sit quod sic posset esse conjunctio; quod `foedus' sit conjunctio, videatur n. 665, 666, 1023, 1038, 1864, 2003, 2021; sensus qui inde redundat est quod quia ita, doctrinalia fidei eorum in se spectata non negarentur; nam, ut dictum, doctrinalia quaecumque {1}, modo sint ex Verbo, non negantur, acceptantur enim a Domino, modo is qui in illis est, in vita charitatis sit, nam illi vitae omnia quae Verbi sunt, conjungi possunt; sed Verbi interiora vitae quae est in charitatis interiore bono; videantur quae n. 3324 dicta et allata sunt. @1 i sint$
