2786. The Lord in heaven speaks with angels, and indeed, with different ones separately in person, then with many at once

That the Lord in person speaks with many, and with each one individually or in particular according to the mind of each, and indeed, in this manner with many at once-this is the truth. I seemed to have grasped this fact. This is a heavenly truth. Even though no one among earthly humans is able to grasp it rationally that this is the case, nevertheless it follows from His omnipresence with everyone, and from His Divine auspice with each person in the universe. 1748, 10 Aug.
