10784. On the way or during that journey I was allowed to observe how vast was the Lord's heaven provided for angels. For from the uninhabited places I was allowed to deduce that it was so vast that even if millions of planets existed and the population on each of them was as great as that on ours, a place would always be there for them; it would never be filled. This I was able to deduce after I had compared it with the extent of the heaven which surrounds and serves our planet.
