The angelic symphony--5:11-12. 1. “ I heard the voice of many angels . . . and the beasts (beings), and the elders . . . ten thousand times ten thousand, and thousands of thousands” --5:11. The voice: The sound of myriad thousands of angels and beings was but one voice, a concert of praise; with one object, the Lamb; and with one theme, in symphony of the adoration to the Lamb. Thousands: The literal computation would be ten thousand times ten thousand--100,000,000--One hundred million, plus thousands of thousands, on multiplied thousands more. So figuratively it signified that all the church on earth, represented by the four and twenty elders, and the whole family of heaven (Ephesians 3:14), represented by the multiplied decimals, joined in the adoration of the Lamb in the midst of the throne. (see verse 13)
