459、天堂有三层：第一层是善灵的住所；第二层是天使灵的住所，第三层是天使的住所。灵人、天使灵和天使都分为属天的和属灵的两类。属天的是那些通过爱从主接受信的人，如前面所说的上古教会成员。属灵的是那些通过信的知识或认知从主接受仁，并出于所接受的仁而行事的人。本章末尾将继续阐述这个主题。

[NCE]459. There are three heavens. The first is where good spirits are, the second where angelic spirits are, and the third where actual angels are.
Spirits, angelic spirits, and angels are each as a group divided up into heavenly and spiritual types. The heavenly ones are those whom love has led to receive faith from the Lord, as those who were part of the earliest church did; they have already been described [32:2, 34, 202]. The spiritual ones are those whom religious knowledge has led to receive a feeling of charity from the Lord and then to act on it.
More on this subject follows at the end of the chapter [537-546].

459. There are three heavens: the first is the abode of good spirits; the second, of angelic spirits and the third, of angels. Spirits, angelic spirits, and angels are all distinguished into the celestial and the spiritual. The celestial are those who through love have received faith from the Lord, like the men of the Most Ancient Church treated of above. The spiritual are those who through knowledges of faith have received charity from the Lord, and who act from what they have received. A continuation of this subject will follow at the end of this chapter.
CHAPTER 5. 1. This is the book of the births of Man. In the day that God created Man, in the likeness of God made He him. 2. Male and female created He them, and blessed them, and called their name Man, in the day when they were created. 3. And Man lived a hundred and thirty years, and begat into his likeness, after his image, and called his name Seth. 4. And the days of Man after he begat Seth were eight hundred years; and he begat sons and daughters. 5. And all the days that Man lived were nine hundred and thirty years; and he died. 6. And Seth lived a hundred and five years, and begat Enosh. 7. And Seth lived after he begat Enosh eight hundred and seven years, and begat sons and daughters. 8. And all the days of Seth were nine hundred and twelve years; and he died. 9. And Enosh lived ninety years, and begat Kenan. 10. And Enosh lived after he begat Kenan eight hundred and fifteen years; and begat sons and daughters. 11. And all the days of Enosh were nine hundred and five years; and he died. 12. And Kenan lived seventy years, and begat Mahalalel. 13. And Kenan lived after he begat Mahalalel eight hundred and forty years, and begat sons and daughters. 14. And all the days of Kenan were nine hundred and ten years; and he died. 15. And Mahalalel lived sixty and five years, and begat Jared. 16.

And Enoch walked with God after he begat Methuselah three hundred years, and begat sons and daughters. 23. And all the days of Enoch were three hundred sixty and five years. 24. And Enoch walked with God, and he was no more, for God took him. 25. And Methuselah lived a hundred eighty and seven years, and begat Lamech. 26. And Methuselah lived after he begat Lamech seven hundred eighty and two years, and begat sons and daughters. 27. And all the days of Methuselah were nine hundred sixty and nine years; and he died. 28. And Lamech lived a hundred eighty and two years, and begat a son;
29. And he called his name Noah, saying, He shall comfort us from our work, and the toil of our hands, out of the ground which JEHOVAH hath cursed. 30.

Elliott(1983-1999) 459
459. There are three heavens. The first is where good spirits are, the second where angelic spirits are, and the third where angels are. All three groups - spirits, angelic spirits, and angels - divide into celestial and spiritual. The celestial are those who have by means of love received faith from the Lord, as did members of the Most Ancient Church, dealt with already. The spiritual are those who have by means of cognitions of faith received charity from the Lord, and who act from the charity they have received. This subject is continued at the end of the chapter.

459. Caeli sunt tres, Primum est ubi spiritus boni, Secundum ubi spiritus angelici, Tertium ubi angeli: distinguuntur tam spiritus quam spiritus angelici et angeli, in caelestes et in spirituales, caelestes sunt qui per amorem fidem acceperunt a Domino, sicut illi qui ex Antiquissima Ecclesia, de quibus actum: spirituales sunt qui per cognitiones fidei acceperunt a Domino charitatem, ex qua accepta agunt.
