623. Verse 11. And he said unto me, Thou must prophesy again over peoples, and nations, and tongues, and many kings.- "And he said unto me, Thou must, prophesy again," signifies the Divine command that the Word may yet be taught; "over peoples, and nations, and tongues, and many kings," signifies with all who are in truths and goods as to life, and at the same time in goods and truths as to doctrine, consequently, that the Word may be taught as to goods of life, and as to truths of doctrine.
