220、关于吃和喝。“吃”表示将爱与仁变成人自己的，并通过它们与主结合（2187，2343，3168，3513，5643节）。因此，它还表示与他人的联系（8001节）。“吃”论及将良善变成人自己的，以及良善成为人的一部分；“喝”论及将真理变成人自己的，以及真理成为人的一部分（3168，3513，3832，9412节）。“在主的国吃喝”（路加福音22:30）表示什么（3832节）。这就是为何在圣言中，“饥渴”表示出于情感对良善和真理的渴望（4958，10227节）。天使只按内义或灵义来理解此处所说的事物，因为他们在灵界（10521节）。因此，当教会的人恭敬地领受圣餐礼时，某种神圣之物就从天堂流入他们（6789节）。这使得他们与主结合（3464，3735，5915，10519，10521，10522节）。
220、关于吃和喝。“吃”表示经由看顾爱护自己与主联合 （2187，2343，3168，3513，5643），也意味着与他人联合 （8001）。“吃”表示使良善成为人自己的一部分，“喝”表示让真理成为人自己的一部分 （3168，3513，3832，9412）。 3832节讲述“在主的国里吃喝”表示什么（3832）。因此，圣经中的“饥”和“渴”表示热爱并渴望良善和真理 （4958，10227）。
天使只能根据内义或灵义理解上述事物，因为他们是在灵界 （10521）。因此，当教会之人虔诚地领受圣餐时，圣洁从天堂流入与他们同在（6789），由此他们与主联合（3464，3735，5915，10519，10521，10522）。
220. Eating and drinking. "Eating" means making caring and love our own and being joined to the Lord by them: 2187, 2343, 3168, 3513, 5643. It therefore also means being associated with others: 8001. "Eating" is said of making goodness our own and its becoming a part of us, and "drinking" is said of making truth our own and its becoming a part of us: 3168, 3513, 3832, 9412. The meaning of "eating and drinking in the Lord's kingdom" [Luke 22:30]: 3832. That is why in the Word "being hungry and thirsty" means having a love and a longing for goodness and truth: 4958, 10227.
Because they live in a spiritual world, angels understand all the elements just discussed solely in an internal or spiritual way: 10521. Therefore something holy flows from heaven into people of the church when they take the sacrament of the Supper reverently (6789), and this joins them to the Lord (3464, 3735, 5915, 10519, 10521, 10522).
220. Not translated.
220. Concerning Eating and Drinking. Eating signifies being appropriated and conjoined through love and charity, Arcana Coelestia 2187, 2343, 3168, 3513, 5643. Hence it signifies being consociated, Arcana Coelestia 8001. Eating is predicated of the appropriation and conjunction of good, and drinking of the appropriation and conjunction of truth, Arcana Coelestia 3168, 3513, 3832, 9412. What is signified by eating and drinking in the Lord's kingdom, Arcana Coelestia 3832. Hence it is, that by being hungry and desiring to eat, in the Word, is signified desiring good and truth from affection, Arcana Coelestia 4958, 10227.
What has here been mentioned the angels do not understand otherwise than according to the internal or spiritual sense, because they are in the spiritual world, Arcana Coelestia 10521. Hence it is that holiness flows in from heaven with the members of the Church, when they partake of the sacrament of the Supper in a holy manner, Arcana Coelestia 6789; and hence there is conjunction with the Lord, Arcana Coelestia 3464, 3735, 5915, 10519, 10521, 10522.
220. Of Eating and Drinking.
"To eat" signifies to be appropriated and conjoined by love and charity (n. 2187, 2343, 3168, 3513, 5643). Hence it signifies to be consociated (n. 8001). "To eat" is predicated of the appropriation and conjunction of good, and "to drink," of the appropriation and conjunction of truth (n. 3168, 3513, 3832, 9412). What "eating and drinking in the Lord's kingdom" signifies (n. 3832). Hence it is, that "to be famished" and "hungry," in the Word, signifies to desire good and truth from affection (n. 4958, 10227).
The angels understand the things here spoken of according to their internal or spiritual sense alone, because the angels are in the spiritual world (n. 10521). Hence holiness from heaven flows in with the men of the church, when they receive the Sacrament of the Supper with sanctity (n. 6789). And thence is conjunction with the Lord (n. 3464, 3735, 5915, 10519, 10521, 10522).
220. De Edere et Bibere.
Quod "edere" significet appropriari et conjungi per amorem et charitatem (Arcana Coelestia 2187, 2343, 3168, 3513, 5643).
Quod inde significet consociari (Arcana Coelestia 8001).
Quod "edere" dicatur de appropriatione et conjunctione boni, ac "bibere" de appropriatione et conjunctione veri (Arcana Coelestia 3168, 3513, 3832, 9412).

Inde est quod "famem habere" et "esurire" in Verbo significet ex affectione desiderare bonum et verum (Arcana Coelestia 4958, 10227).
Quod angeli illa quae nunc dicta sunt, non aliter intelligant quam secundum sensum internum seu spiritualem, quia in spirituali mundo sunt (Arcana Coelestia 10121, [10521?]).
Quod inde sanctum e caelo influat apud homines ecclesiae, cum sancte obeunt Sacramentum Cenae (Arcana Coelestia 6789).
Et quod inde conjunctio Domini (Arcana Coelestia 1519, [10519?] 3464, 3735, 5915, 10521, 10522).
