1. The Capacity of the Place; Vast, 1and (as to us) infinite will be the numberless numbers of those that do meet in this universal Assembly. Behold, the Lord will come with ten thousands of his Saints; 2Yea thousand thousands minister unto him, and ten thousand times ten thousand stand before him; All the Saints that slept in Jesus from the Creation of man, and all the Saints which are found alive upon the Earth at Christs Coming, must all appear before the Lord Josus. And besides these, the Judge cometh with his Royal Satellites, his Officers of State, Myriads and Legions of Angels;—All his holy Angels, Math. 25.31. There shall not be an Angel (as it were) left in Heaven as it were. Jacob met two Hosts or Camps of Angels of God, in his Travel, Gen. 32.12. Our Saviour mentions more then 12 Legions, which as a commanded party, 3would have been (in an instant) sent out for his rescue, (if there had been need). What an infinite Army of Angels must it needs be then, when all the Angels come in Christ's Train? An innumerable company of Angels? 4And all these must not appear in confused heaps and multitudes, but in their distinct ranks and order; and the Saints are to sit in Order, in their several degrees round about the Throne.
