MEASURE
A symbol of correspondence in quality.
"Man is the measure of all things; of those things which exist as he
is ; and of those things which do not exist as he is not." -
Protogoras of Abdera.
The human soul corresponds in quality with the whole universe. It
has in it all the elements of the planes of manifestation. This
truth is recognised when to the soul's actual qualities there are
added the soul's latent qualities.
"To measure signifies to know and scrutinise the quality of a thing
or state." - SWEDENBORG, Apocalypse Revealed, n. 486.
"And he measured the wall thereof, a hundred and forty and four
cubits, according to the measure of a man, that is, of an angel." -
REV. xxi. 17.
The perfected soul is complete in all its qualities and attributes
(12 × 12), according to its correspondence with the potential within
it, that is, of the Archetypal Man (angel). - EPH. iv. 13.
