Note 31 — X. NATURE.
Reading edition
It is true, the Lord has given us some notion of the vastness of His works, of Kolob, "the first creation, nearest the celestial or residence of God; first in government, last pertaining to the measurement of time," whose day "is equal to a thousand years, according to the measurement of this earth;"[31] of "Oliblish, which is the next grand governing creation, holding the key of power also, pertaining to other planets;"[32] and has revealed to us that "were it possible that men could number the particles of the earth, yea, and millions of earths like this, it would not be a beginning to the number of His creations;"[33] yet a knowledge of His dominions, except in this general way, concerning any other of His creations than this earth, is withheld from us.
