348. THAT THE HEAVEN OF GOD MESSIAH CONSISTS OF A VARIETY OF ALL THINGS The subjects themselves, that is, the angels as to their forms, must be of indefinite variety, being distinguished by their variety into genera and species, in the single things, in each habitation, likewise in all things; also in every degree. Harmony exists from variety alone, being such that all believe themselves to be as if one. From this, that is, from the form of harmony, comes happiness with indefinite variety, and this to eternity. These things were said in a gathering of innumerable souls, spirits and angels, and not one did I hear dissent. 1747, Dec. 15.
