329. THAT ALL THINGS WHATSOEVER THAT MEET THE EYE, HOWEVER DIVERSE THEY MAY BE, ARE NEVERTHELESS VIVIFIED BY GOD MESSIAH INTO LOVELY DELIGHTS AND SERIES OF DELIGHTS When I was walking in the street, and with my eyes looking at different objects which, on account of their diversity, no one would ever suppose could be translated into a continuous series of delights, and thus vivified, I then heard from the angels that they had thence perceived a continuous variety of delights, and thus from objects of which they had no perception; and I could understand this, for there is nothing in the world that is not representative of the Kingdom of God Messiah. 1747, Dec. 10.
