Genesis 1:21

Study

       

21 And God created great whales, and every living creature that moveth, which the waters brought forth abundantly, after their kind, and every winged fowl after his kind: and God saw that it was good.

Commentary

 

Winged thing

  

'Winged thing' signifies sensory truth. Because they relate to seeing and hearing, sensory truths are described as 'winged,' because they are extremity truths, which is the significance of 'wing,' in reference to other things.
