10734. 我被带到我们太阳系之外的宇宙中的另一个星球, 这一切是通过我心智的状态变化, 因而我灵的变化实现的. 因为如前面数次所说明的, 灵从一个地方被带到另一个地方, 只能通过其内层状态的变化而实现; 但这些变化在他看来, 就像从一个地方移动到另一个地方或旅行. 在我从我的生命状态过渡到他们的生命状态, 因而就灵而言, 我被带到那里之前, 我所经历的变化持续了大约十个小时. 唯独主能以这种方式依次改变一个人的心智状态, 直到它最终接近另一个距离如此遥远之人的心智状态. 我被带到东边, 左侧, 似乎逐渐被提到水平面之上. 我还被允许清楚观察到我远离原先的地方, 直到最后我所离开的那些人消失不见了; 与此同时, 我在路上与陪同我的灵人谈论了各种话题.

As with many common verbs, the meaning of “to say” in the Bible is highly dependent on context. Who is speaking? Who is hearing? What is it about? Is it a command, a message, an apology, instruction? All these things enter into the meaning of “say.” In general, though, “saying” has to do with sharing truth at various levels -- from the most exalted power people can have to perceive the Lord's desires directly to the most basic of orders issued to people at their lowest.
