285. And they had no rest day and night, saying, Holy, holy, holy. That these words signify what is most holy proceeding from the Lord is evident from the signification of having no rest day and night, when said of the Divine providence and guardianship of the Lord signified by the four cherubim which appeared as four animals, as being universally and perpetually, because the Divine providence and guardianship of the Lord do not rest and cease to eternity; and from the signification of holy, holy, holy, as being what is most holy proceeding from the Lord; for by holy, thrice named, is signified most holy, for the reason that three in the Word signifies what is full, complete and continuous (as may be seen, 33, and that the Lord is alone holy, and that holy is said of the Divine truth which proceeds from Him, may also be seen above, n. 204.)
285. And they had no rest day and night, saying, Holy, holy, holy, signifies that which is most holy proceeding from the Lord. This is evident from the signification of "had no rest day and night;" this, when it is said of the Lord's Divine Providence and guard, which is signified by "the four cherubim" that appeared as four animals, is universally and perpetually, since the Lord's Divine Providence and guard rest not and cease not to eternity. This is evident also from the signification of "Holy, holy, holy," as being that which is most holy proceeding from the Lord, for "holy" thrice named signifies most holy, for this reason, that "three" in the Word signifies what is full, complete, and continuous (See Arcana Coelestia 2788 Arcana Coelestia 2788[1-13], 4495, 7715).
[2] The like is signified by this in Isaiah:
I saw the Lord sitting upon a throne, high and lifted up, and His skirts filled the temple. Above it stood the seraphim: each one had six wings; with twain he covered his face, and with twain he covered his feet, and with twain he did fly. And one cried unto another, Holy, holy, holy, Jehovah of Hosts; the fullness of all the earth is His glory (33 and that the Lord only is holy, and that "holy" is predicated of the Divine truth that proceeds from Him, see above, n. 204)
285. "Et requiem non habebant die et nocte, dicentia, Sanctus, sanctus, sanctus." Quod significet sanctissimum quod procedit a Domino, constat ex significatione "requiem non habere die et nocte", cum de Divina providentia et custodia Domini, quae significantur per "quatuor cherubos" qui apparuerunt sicut "quatuor Animalia", quod sit universaliter et perpetuo, quoniam Divina Domini providentia et custodia in aeternum non requiescit et cessat; et ex significatione "Sanctus, sanctus, sanctus", quod sit sanctissimum quod procedit a Domino, nam per "sanctum" ter nominatum significatur sanctissimum, ex causa quia "tria" in Verbo significant plenum, completum et continuum (videatur n. 2788, 4495, 7715).
[2] Simile significatur per haec apud Esaiam,
"Vidi Dominum sedentem super throno alto et elato, et fimbriae Ipsius implentes Templum; seraphim stantes desuper illo; sex alae cuivis; duabus tegebat facies suas, duabus tegebat pedes suos, et duabus volabat; et clamavit hic ad illum, Sanctus, sanctus, sanctus, Jehovah Zebaoth; plenitudo (omnis) terrae gloria Ipsius" ( 1
; et quod Dominus sit solus Sanctus; et quod sanctum dicatur de Divino Vero, quod procedit ab Ipso, etiam supra, n. 204.)
