The angel notices John's amazement. "And so," John continues, "the angel said to me: 'Why is it you wondered? I will tell you the mystert of the woman and of the wild beas that is carrying her and that has the seven heads and the ten horns.'" (Revelation 17:7) Ah, the angel will now unravel the mystery! He explains to the wide-eyed John the various facets of the vision and the dramatic events that are about to unfold. Likewise, as it serves under angelic direction today, the watchful John class has had revealed to it the understanding of the prophecy. "Do not interpretations belong to God?" Like faithful Joseph we believe that they do. (Genesis 40:8; compare Daniel 2:29, 30) God's people are placed. as it were center stage as Jehovah interprets to them the meaning of the vision and its impact on their lives. (Psalm 25:14) Right on time, he has opened up to their understanding the mystery of the woman and of the beast. - PSALM 32:8.
