d also to the same extent in
intelligence, wisdom and happiness, because Divine truth and Divine
good which are the source of all intelligence, wisdom, and happiness,
flow chiefly into marriage love; consequently marriage love, since it
is also the marriage of good and truth, is the very plane of Divine
influx. For that love, as it is a conjunction of the understanding
and will, is also a conjunction of truth and good, since the
understanding receives Divine truth and is formed out of truths, and
the will receives Divine good and is formed out of goods. For what a
man wills is good to him, and what he understands is truth to him;
therefore it is the same whether you say conjunction of understanding
and will or conjunction of truth and good. Conjunction of truth and
good is what makes an angel; it makes his intelligence, wisdom, and
happiness; for an angel is an angel accordingly as good in him is
conjoined with truth and truth with good; or what is the same,
accordingly as love in him is conjoined with faith and faith with
love.

371. The Divine that goes forth from the Lord flows chiefly into
marriage love because marriage love descends from a conjunction of
good and truth; for it is the same thing as has been said above,
whether you say conjunction of understanding and will or conjunction
of good and truth. Conjunction of good and truth has its origin in
the Lord's Divine love towards all who are in heaven and on earth.
From Divine love Divine good goes forth, and Divine good is received
by angels and men in Divine truths. As truth is the sole receptacle
of good nothing can be received from the Lord and from heaven by any
one who is not in truths; therefore just to the extent that the
truths in man are conjoined to good is man conjoined to the Lord and
to heaven. This, then, is the very origin of marriage love, and for
this reason that love is the very plane of Divine influx. This shows
why the conjunction of good and truth in heaven is called the
heavenly marriage, and heaven is likened in the Word to a marriage,
and is called a marriage; and the Lord is called the "Bridegroom" and
"Husband," and heaven and also the church are called the "bride" and
the "wife."{1}

{Footnote 1} The origin, cause, and essence of true marriage
love is the marriage of good and truth; thus it is from heaven
(n. 2728, 2729). Respecting angelic spirit, who have a
perception whether there is anything of marriage from the idea
