415. Verse 13. And I saw and I heard an angel flying in the midst of heaven, signifies instruction and prediction from the Lord. By "an angel," in the highest sense, is meant the Lord, and thence also something from the Lord (n. 344) and by "flying in the midst of heaven and saying," is signified to perceive and understand, and when concerning the Lord, to foresee and provide (n. 245); but here, to instruct and foretell.
