XX.] JULY, 1913 [No. 3.
THE DIVINE AND THE HUMAN IN REVELATION Twice in the later chapters of the Book of Revelation, once in the nineteenth chapter and once in the twenty-sec- ond, we read that John was about to worship his angel guide and instructor. In the first instance it was the angel who speaking for a great rejoicing multitude bade him to write, "Blessed are they which are called unto the marriage supper of the Lamb; these are the true sayings of God"; and in the second instance it was ...the angel who showed him the bride, the Lamb's wife, the Holy City New Jerusalem de- scending out of heaven from God, and who presently de- clared, "I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, the first and the last I Jesus have sent mine angel to testify unto you these things in the churches." John twice fell down to worship, but both angels refused his worship, answering in almost the same words : "See thou do it not : I am thy fellow servant, and of them that have the testi- mony of Jesus: worship God." In comment upon these verses of the Revelation Swe- denborg explains the seeming contradiction of these angels who spoke the message of heaven and of the Lord, and could even say, "I am Alpha and Omega 1 Jesus," and who still refused to accept John's worship, saying, "I am thy fellow servant; worship God."
