242. There is a certain concord in angelic speech that is indescribable. 1 This concord stems from the fact that the thoughts and affections that give rise to speech flow forth and spread out in keeping with heaven's form, heaven's form being what determines how everyone there associates and communicates. (See above, 200-212, on the way heaven's form determines how angels associate and the flow of their thoughts and affections.)
