5543. ABOUT THE LAST JUDGMENT AND THE NEW JERUSALEM

I saw an enormous multitude sent down from heaven toward the east and allotted a place there toward the front. Those who were evil were allotted places in uninhabited areas round about and thrown into hells. Those who were good received houses to live in. After this I heard an enormous multitude who had been sent down from heaven to all the remaining quarters round about, the western, southern, and northern, with whom the same thing happened; and those who were good were allotted houses and dwellings there. This went on for several hours, through the whole night.

165. [165.] 31. I later saw a great number of people sent from the heavens and also rising up below and left to themselves who were allotted dwellings and habitations - in the east those who were possessed of a clear goodness of love and charity, to the west those who were possessed of a hazy goodness of love and charity, to the south those who were possessed of truths arising from good in a state of clarity, to the north those who were possessed of truths arising from good in a state of haziness - all acknowledging the Lord as God of heaven and earth.
