<div class="SSN_level2">B. What does this reveal to us of God?</div>
<div class="SSN_level3">1. His parenthood.</div>
<div class="SSN_level4">a. In God fatherhood & motherhood merge.</div>
<div class="SSN_level4">b. Eaglets are of the very being & nature of eagles & thus the supreme object of love.</div>

<div class="SSN_level3">3. His nature.</div>
<div class="SSN_level4">a. The eagle dwells on high & takes its flight sunward, up, up, until out of sight. Here the figure breaks down & thus accomplishes its purposes. "God is the light."</div>

<div class="SSN_level4">b. God does not always explain the disturbance but He assures us of Himself, His love.</div>
<div class="SSN_level2">C. "He spreadeth abroad His wings."</div>
<div class="SSN_level3">1. He is now showing the awakened eaglets purpose.</div>
<div class="SSN_level3">2. He spreads abroad his wings that they might follow instinct & begin spreading abroad their wings.</div>
