9232. MOON SPIRITS
Some spirits appeared overhead, and I heard voices coming from there which sounded like thunder; for their voices boomed just like thunder coming from the clouds after flashes of lightning. I assumed that it was a huge number of spirits who had been taught to use their voices to emit such a sound. But some quite ordinary spirits who were present with me laughed at them, which amazed me very much. The reason for their laughter soon became clear. It was that the spirits who boomed like thunder were not many but few, and also that they were small, like children, and that although they had previously terrified these other spirits by making such sounds they had been unable to do any harm whatever.
John 11:1-3
1
Now a certain man was sick, Lazarus from Bethany, of the village of Mary and her sister, Martha.
2
It was that Mary who had anointed the Lord with ointment, and wiped his feet with her hair, whose brother, Lazarus, was sick.
3
The sisters therefore sent to him, saying, "Lord, behold, he for whom you have great affection is sick."
