To give the stranger food and raiment, pouring oil and wine into his wounds

We have seen* how the stranger in the Word, in its most positive sense -- there are reversed ones as usual with the Word's images -- is one who is willing to be instructed in the doctrines of charity and faith; and how the Word expresses this first from one camera angle then from another according to His custom: 

Deuteronomy 10:16-18 - King James Version (KJV)

<16> Circumcise therefore the foreskin of your heart, and be no more stiffnecked. <17> For the Lord your God is God of gods, and Lord of lords, a great God, a mighty, and a terrible, which regardeth not persons, nor taketh reward: <18> He doth execute the judgment of the fatherless and widow, and loveth the stranger, in giving him food and raiment.

Luke 10:33-34 - King James Version (KJV)

<33> But a certain Samaritan, as he journeyed, came where he was: and when he saw him, he had compassion on him, <34> And went to him, and bound up his wounds, pouring in oil and wine, and set him on his own beast, and brought him to an inn, and took care of him.

The first extract is camera angle one, where we see a reference to "loveth the stranger, in giving him food and raiment". See the * for further context, but the food is teaching about charity and the raiment teaching about the truths of faith. And when the oil was poured in, in camera angle 2 or the parable of the good Samaritan, this was again instruction of a stranger in charity and faith.

Acts 8:27-31 - King James Version (KJV)

<27> And he arose and went: and, behold, a man of Ethiopia, an eunuch of great authority under Candace queen of the Ethiopians, who had the charge of all her treasure, and had come to Jerusalem for to worship, <28> Was returning, and sitting in his chariot read Esaias the prophet. <29> Then the Spirit said unto Philip, Go near, and join thyself to this chariot. <30> And Philip ran thither to him, and heard him read the prophet Esaias, and said, Understandest thou what thou readest? <31> And he said, How can I, except some man should guide me? And he desired Philip that he would come up and sit with him.

This Ethiopian is a stranger. He is willing to be instructed in the doctrines of charity and faith.

And as for Philip, he is loving the Ethiopian and stranger in giving him food and raiment.

He is pouring oil and wine, doctrines of love and faith, into the wounds of one robbed and left for dead. For he had been to Jerusalem, had this eunuch! And had departed without a man to guide him.

Imagine! The man has gone to Jerusalem and none of the whitened sepulchers have coughed up any real knowledge to assist him with interpreting the Word despite their vaunted religiosity and their reputation for such in worldly life! 

Like Nicodemus who came to Jesus by night and understood not the spiritual, seeing only the natural, the "Doctors of Israel" had been of no use in opening the Word. They were duds, and the Ethiopian's hunt for what Isaiah meant went on... which is why he was so receptive to God's orchestrated nudge. He nudges at just the right moment, does your Lord. 

But let us reverse the oil and wine for yet another angle on the situation:

Revelation 6:6 - King James Version (KJV)

<6> And I heard a voice in the midst of the four beasts say, A measure of wheat for a penny, and three measures of barley for a penny; and see thou hurt not the oil and the wine.

Luke 10:31-32 - King James Version (KJV)

<31> And by chance there came down a certain priest that way: and when he saw him, he passed by on the other side. <32> And likewise a Levite, when he was at the place, came and looked on him, and passed by on the other side.

These are, again, the same thing from different camera angles in the Word, which we have seen to be His customary textual practice. The priest and the Levite hurt the oil and wine, and thus they had no oil and wine to pour into anyone's wounds. Any explanation of these verses which does not show you these connections does not even begin to understand the Word.

This priest and Levite were likewise foolish virgins, from yet another camera angle of the Word; they had no oil in their lamps, no compassion in their phylacteries, no good of love in their spiritual knowledge. They were like the rich man "Dives" (traditional) rich with the spiritual riches of the Word but poor in compassion for scabbed Lazarus, the Gentiles outside the Church whom the Church is to instruct and out of whose ranks God calls the New Church into being once that instruction is no longer possible, the Old Church having become a whore. 

John 16:13-14 - King James Version (KJV)

<13> Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will shew you things to come. <14> He shall glorify me: for he shall receive of mine, and shall shew it unto you.

Incidentally, you must understand the true meaning of glory and thus glorify here, in order to appreciate "shall receive of mine, and shall shew it unto you".

The glory of the Lord is the inner meaning encoded into the literal or outer meaning of the Word. It is also a genuine majestic quality of His presence, which is a joy like music that instructs you beyond human language and ordinary channels of communication, thought and feeling.

It is no vain pomp of human royalty, for it is a very real and essential glory that teaches you. What mere blare of trumpets about a human potentate could teach you by its mere presence??

But that is the glorious presence of God.

2 Kings 6:17 - King James Version (KJV)

<17> And Elisha prayed, and said, Lord, I pray thee, open his eyes, that he may see. And the Lord opened the eyes of the young man; and he saw: and, behold, the mountain was full of horses and chariots of fire round about Elisha.

Philippians 1:9 - King James Version (KJV)

<9> And this I pray, that your love may abound yet more and more in knowledge and in all judgment;

The love was full of spiritual understanding and doctrines of love round about Elisha. The love abounded yet more and more in knowledge and in all judgment within the young man's eyes that were opened. May it even be so with you. May the Lord bless your love and faith, that it may abound yet more and more, that it may divide and multiply according to its generations in their order and replenish the earth  / the Church. AMEN!

Isaiah 65:1 - King James Version (KJV)

<1> I am sought of them that asked not for me; I am found of them that sought me not: I said, Behold me, behold me, unto a nation that was not called by my name.

Revelation 22:17 - King James Version (KJV)

<17> And the Spirit and the bride say, Come. And let him that heareth say, Come. And let him that is athirst come. And whosoever will, let him take the water of life freely.

" That "to hunger" is from affection to desire good, is because "bread" in the internal sense is the good of love and of charity, and "food" in general is good (n. 2165, 2177, 3478, 4211, 4217, 4735). That "to thirst" is from affection to desire truth, is because "wine" and also "water" denote the truth of faith (that it is so with "wine," see above n. 1071, 1798; and with "water," n. 2702). That a "stranger" is one who is willing to be instructed, may also be seen above (n. 1463, 4444). That the "naked" means one who acknowledges that there is nothing of good or truth in himself, the "sick" one who acknowledges that he is in evil, and the "bound," or he that is "in prison," one who acknowledges that he is in falsity, is plain from the many passages in the Word in which they are mentioned" (Arcana Coelestia 4958).
