2680. Heavenly cycles and revolutions
Heavenly cycles and revolutions occur according to the order represented in the world by years - the year's spring, summer, autumn, winter, and on to spring - and by days - the day's morning, noon, evening, night, and on to morning. The revolutions are from outward toward inward and more perfect regions, which is evident from the things we read about the Church from the ancient to the succeeding ones [cf. Gen. 8:22], so [revolutions] are the variations occurring in all things. 1748, 25 July.
2680. THE HEAVENLY CHANGES [VICES] AND REVOLUTIONS.
The heavenly changes and revolutions are circumstanced according to order, represented in the word by years, the spring, summer, autumn [and] winter thereof, and so on to spring [again] also by days, the morning, noon, evening [and] night thereof, and soon to morning again. The revolutions are from exteriors to interiors, thus to more perfect things. Likewise it may be apparent from those things which are real concerning the Church from the Ancient [Church] to the succeeding [ones]: thus [are circumstanced] the varieties of all [these]. - 1748, July 25.
2680. Vices et revolutiones coelestes
Vices et revolutiones coelestes se habent secundum ordinem, repraesentatum in mundo, per annos, ejus ver, aestatem, autumnum, hyemem, sic ad ver, tum per dies, ejus mane, meridiem, vesperam, noctem, sic ad mane; revolutiones, ab exterioribus ad interiora, ita ad perfectiora; sicut constare potest ex iis, quae leguntur de Ecclesia ab antiqua, ad sequentes [cf. Gen. VIII: 22]; sic omnium varietates. 1748, 25 Julius.
