'A volume' or 'roll,' as in Zechariah 5:2, signifies the curse going forth upon the faces of the whole earth. 'A roll of a book written within and without,' as in Ezekiel 2:9-10 and 3:1-3, signifies the state of the church and thus the quality of life of the people at that time.

It is plain that the power of the forces involved in fighting is meant since conflict is the subject.
