313. THAT THOSE WHO HAVE NOT SO RECENTLY COME FROM THE LIFE OF THE BODY CAN ALSO BE ADMITTED INTO THE HABITATIONS OF THE MORE INTERIOR HEAVEN; BUT STILL IN ANOTHER MANNER Some with whom I spoke were also admitted into the more interior heaven, and I knew some of them had been dead only a few months, and some a few years. These were also admitted into certain habitations of the more interior heaven, in order that they might there see and sensibly perceive, and at the same time hear the heavenly glory. But because they could not as yet be in that state so as to remain there, they were therefore encompassed by an angelic sphere by which all dissension was taken away, so that the angels of that habitation could not be hurt or disturbed thereby. 1747, Dec. 6.
