86、在灵人和天使的概念中，火星和其它星球一样固定在一个位置；该星球在左前方胸部层面的某个距离处，也就是说，在我们地球灵所在的领域之外。各星球的灵人彼此分离，因为每个星球的灵人都对应于巨人的某个特定区域。因此，他们的状态各不相同；这种状态的不同使他们看上去彼此分离，或向右，或向左，并且距离或长或短。天堂与主有一个对应关系，人与天堂在每个细节上都有一个对应关系，以致在主眼里，天堂就是一个规模宏大的人，可称作巨人(AC 2996, 2998, 3624-3249，3636-3643, 3741-3745, 4625)。我已通过亲身经历论述了人及其各个部位与巨人，也就是天堂的对应关系(AC 3021, 3624-3649, 3741-3750, 3883-3896, 4039-4055[原文4051], 4218-28, 4318-31, 4403-21, 4523 [原文4527]-4533, 4622-4633, 4652-4660, 4791-4805, 4931-4953, 5050-61, 5171-5189, 5377-5396, 5552-5573, 5711-5727,10030)。在来世，距离是真实的表象，照着天使与灵人的内在状态而被主变得可见(AC 5605 [原文5604], 9104, 9440, 10146)。
86. As spirits and angels see it, the planet Mars, like other planets in various locations, seems to have its own constant place-a little way out in front, to the left, at the level of the chest, and therefore outside the region where the spirits from our planet live.
The spirits from one planet are kept apart from the spirits of another planet because the spirits of each planet are associated with some particular district in the universal human 1and are therefore in a different state. Difference of state makes them seem more or less widely separated from each other, either to the right or to the left. 2

2. [Swedenborg note] Distances in the other life are manifestations of realities that the Lord makes visible according to the deeper states of angels and spirits: 5605, 9104, 9440, 10146.
86. The planet Mars is thought of by spirits and angels as occupying a fixed position, as the other planets do; this lies in front to the left, some distance away at chest level, that is to say, outside the sphere where the spirits of our world are. The spirits of one world are separated from those of another, because the spirits of each world answer to some particular province in the Grand Man. 1As a result their states are not the same but diverse, and this diversity of state makes them appear separated from one another, either to the right or to the left, and at a greater or lesser distance. 2

1. Heaven has a correspondence to the Lord, and a human being has in every detail a correspondence to heaven, so that in the Lord's eyes heaven is a man on the grand scale, and may be called the Grand Man (Arcana Caelestia 2996, 2998, 3624-3649 [original adds 3636-3643], Arcana Caelestia 3741-3745, 4625). The whole subject of the correspondence of man and all his parts to the Grand Man who is heaven has been described from experience (Arcana Caelestia 3021, 3624-3649, 3741-3750 [3741 in original], Arcana Caelestia 3883-3896, 4039-4055 [4051 in original], Arcana Caelestia 4218-4228, 4318-4331, 4403-4421, 4523-4533 [from 4527 in original], Arcana Caelestia 4622-4633, 4652-4660, 4791-4805, 4931-4953, 5050-5061, 5171-5189, 5377-5396, 5552-5573, 5711-5727, 10030).
2. Distances in the next life appear real, and are rendered visible according to the inner states of angels and spirits (Arcana Caelestia 5605 [5604 in original], Arcana Caelestia 9104, 9440, 10146).
86. The planet Mars in the idea of spirits and angels, like the other planets, appears constantly in its place, which is to the left in front, at some distance, in the plane of the breast, and so out of the sphere where the spirits of our earth are. The spirits of one earth are separate from the spirits of another earth, because the spirits of each earth refer to some particular province in the Greatest Man, and hence are in another and different state; and diversity of state makes them appear separate from each other, either to the right or to the left, at a greater or less distance. 1
Footnotes:
1. Distances in the other life are real appearances, which are presented by the Lord to be seen, according to the state of the interiors of angels and spirits (Arcana Coelestia 5604, 9104, 9440, 10146).
86. Planeta Martis apparet in idea spirituum et angelorum, sicut planetae alibi, in suo loco constanter, et quidem ad sinistrum antrorsum ad aliquam distantiam in plano pectoris, et sic extra sphaeram ubi sunt spiritus nostrae Telluris. Spiritus unius Telluris separati sunt a spiritibus alius telluris, ex causa quia spiritus cujusvis Telluris referunt aliquam peculiarem provinciam in Maximo Homine, 1ac inde in alio et diverso statu sunt; et diversitas status facit, ut a se mutuo vel ad dextrum vel ad sinistrum, ad distantiam majorem vel minorem, separati appareant. 2
