Metaphysical meaning of priests (rw)
priests--Metaphysically, ideas of priestly authority and the religious guidance of the intellect. The "priests and Levites" represent our so-called natural religious tendencies. These officiate in the rites and ceremonies of the tent, or tabernacle, and when the more permanent structure (temple) is built, they bring up all the "holy vessels" from the tent or tabernacle.
