Honey s, the delight which is derived from good and truth, or from the affection thereof, and specifically the external delight, thus the delight of the exterior natural principle; inasmuch as this latter delight is of such a nature, that it comes from the world through the things of sense, therefore the use of h. was forbidden in the meat offerings. H. den. delight, because it is sweet, and every thing sweet in the natural world cor. to what is delightful and pleasant in the spiritual; the reason why it is said the delight thereof, viz., the delight of truth derived from good in the exterior natural principle, is, because every truth, and especially every truth of good, has its delight, but a delight arising from the affection of good and truth, and from consequent use. 5620.

It is also delightful, because it is natural, and the spiritual principle conceals itself deep within; it must likewise be delightful to the intent, that man may receive, that is, that he may be introduced, and not deterred at the threshold, 5620.
