Detailed explanation-1: -Furthermore, the traveler Dante himself assents to the Bernardian explanation of Christian love in Canto XXVI of the Paradiso, during the second part of St. John’s examination on love.
Detailed explanation-2: -(St. Bernard may represent God, since he welcomes the pilgrim to the Empyrean, after which Dante is able to see God; in this reading, Beatrice would represent the Holy Spirit because she purifies Dante and brings him to St. Bernard and the Empyrean.)
Detailed explanation-3: -Bernard of Clairvaux was a 12th-century Benedictine monk and contemplative theologian. In the Empyrean, where he is depicted as a kindly, fatherly soul, he takes Beatrice’s place as Dante’s guide. He is especially devoted to the Virgin Mary, to whom he prays on Dante’s behalf before Dante’s vision of God.
Detailed explanation-4: -Inside the rose Dante sees the host of the blessed spirits. The other host-consisting of the angels-swoops around from the light of the God to the rose itself. As the angels fly, they sing. The angels’ wings are gold and they are dressed in a white paler than snow.
Detailed explanation-5: -The poem consists of 100 cantos, which are grouped together into three sections, or canticles, Inferno, Purgatorio, and Paradiso. Technically there are 33 cantos in each canticle and one additional canto, contained in the Inferno, which serves as an introduction to the entire poem.
