644. Verse 15. And another angel went out from the temple, signifies the angelic heaven. What is signified by "an angel" and "angels," may be seen above (n. 5, 65, 170, 258, 342, 343, 344, 415, 465); here the angelic heaven, because it is said that he went out "from the temple," and by "the temple" is signified heaven as to the church (n. 191, 529, 585); for there is a church in the heavens equally as on earth.
