Fury is a receding from good, and anger is a receding from truth.

In Genesis 49:20, this signifies turning away from confirmed truth. (Arcana Coelestia 6359)

In Exodus 15:7, this signifies the fury of lusts and their endeavor to inflict violence. (Arcana Coelestia 8284)

In Zephaniah 1:15, this signifies the advent of the Lord to judgment. (Divine Love and Wisdom 5)

In Revelation 14:10, this signifies truth from which comes good. (Apocalypse Revealed 635)

745. In general 'bird' means thoughts. This is clear from what has been stated in several places already about birds meaning intellectual concepts or rational concepts. In those places however they are called 'birds of the air' ¹ whereas here it is simply 'bird', which is why thoughts in general are meant. Indeed there are many kinds of birds, clean and unclean, which in verse 14 below are differentiated as birds, flying creatures, and winged creatures. Clean ones are thoughts about truth, the unclean are false thoughts, which will in the Lord's Divine mercy be dealt with later on.
