AE 668 - "a great voice"

AE 668 (Rev. 11:12)
And they heard a great voice out of heaven, saying unto them,
signifies the Lord's Divine Providence.
"A voice out of heaven" signifies all that proceeds from the Lord, which in general is called Divine truth, and with us in the world is called the Word; thus in particular every precept and command in the Word is meant; this is called "a voice out of heaven" because it descended and is continually descending from the Lord through heaven with those who read the Word from the spiritual affection of truth.
