CHAP. IV. Verſe 1. A door was opened in heaven]
THat is, Preparation was made for the manifeſtation of more heavenly myſteries.
Was as it were of a trumpet] To rouſe and raiſe up his attention. For it might fare with him, as with a drouſie perſon, who though awaked, and ſet to work, is ready to ſleep at it. Compare Zach. 4.1.
Come up hither] Not by locall motion, but by mentall illumination.
I will ſhew thee] That thou maiſt ſhew the Church, that they have a moſt glorious and almighty deliverer.
