119. * is the case, could be illustrated by so many examples and actual proofs, that if the abundance of proof within myself would accomplish anything, no one would be able to raise a doubt about this matter. For heavenly minds are in the very essence of things, whence they bring forth meanings into words, the words following from the things. Angels, when speaking, do not even know what words follow, or to which language the words belong. Yet they know very well everything that lies within each word, as I have very often observed, and on which subject I have spoken with them on several occasions. Even when I was speaking other languages I had learned, they did not know which language it was, unless I took thought that it was this particular language; besides other examples showing that understanding flows in, sometimes more abundant, sometimes more limited, entirely according to the will of God the Messiah, Who disposes the state of minds, imparting to them whatever will serve a use, etc. etc. From this it may be evident that it was an understanding of things at that time that caused the people to tremble, to stand afar off, terrified; and thus that by "voices" are meant the words of God the Messiah, understood, etc. etc. [Essence; Inflow; Inward; Speak, Speech; Things; Voice (Words)]
