horses coming out from the book (6)
seven angels with trumpets (8) the pit of the abyss opened, and locusts coming out a dragon, and its battle with Michael (12) two beasts, rising, one from the sea and the other from the land (13) a woman seated on a scarlet beast (17) Babylon destroyed (18) a white horse, and One seated on it (19) a new heaven and a new earth, and the holy Jerusalem descending from heaven (21) the river of the water of life (22). That he saw these "in the vision of the spirit" is said 1:10; 4:2; 5:1; 6:1; 21:1, 2. [4] Such were the visions which appeared from heaven to the sight of the spirit of these men, but not to their bodily sight. Such visions do not occur at this day because if they did, they would not be understood inasmuch as they are produced by representations the details of which signify internal things of the church and arcana of heaven. Daniel also foretold (9:24) that they would cease when the Lord came into the world. |
