II.1 chapter 19

The meaning of some places in the Bible is hidden; but although it can be advantageous when it brings forth many truthful insights, it has to be noted that it always can be confirmed by obvious facts or other places in the Bible that are more clear.

In this way we can state the following: that with the creation of the light we can understand the angels to be created; and that a separation has been made between the holy angels and evil angels when it is said that God separated light from darkness. Gods could make this separation even before the evil angels were fallen, by his foreknowledge; and by the same he saw that these angels would persist in the darkness of pride.
