# the kingdom of heaven

# Whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven
2017-06-21 20:50:04 +00:00
Here "bind" is a metaphor meaning to forbid something, and "loose" is a metaphor meaning to allow something. Also, "in heaven" is a metonym that represents God himself. Alternate translation: "God in heaven will approve whenever you forbid or allow something on earth" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-metaphor]] and [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-metonymy]])
