Pillar of Fire, the Divine Idea of the World

the Divine Idea of the World, i.e., the ordering principle in the Unknown Deep of Nature itself, Sartor Resartus/Book 3/Chapter 2 - Wikisource ... invested the Divine Idea of the World with a sensible and practically active Body, so that it might dwell among them as a living and life-giving WORD. .. A Pillar of Fire was one of the manifestations of the God of the Israelites (for Nontrinitarians, Yahweh; for Trinitarians, God in the Person of the Holy Spirit) in the Old Testament. In Exodus the pillar of fire provides light so the Israelites can travel by night. Usage Exodus 13:21-22. By day the Lord went ahead of them in a pillar of cloud to guide them on their way and by night in a pillar of fire to give them light, so that they could travel by day or night.

In the true Literary Man there is thus ever, acknowledged or not by the world, a sacredness: he is the light of the world; the world's Priest; — guiding it, like a sacred Pillar of Fire, in its dark pilgrimage through the waste of Time.
