God revealed his great plan only in his own due time, and until that time he kept it all to himself.
[22]The divine plan means the arrangement made by Jehovah for the creation of everything that has been created and for carrying out his purposes with reference to his creatures.

The first one to understand the divine plan was Jesus, who prior to coming to earth was known as the Logos, which means one who speaks and acts for Jehovah.

In Revelation, chapter 5, a wonderful picture is given in symbolic language.

Jehovah is pictured as seated upon his throne, holding in his right hand a record or scroll of his great plan.

The hand is a symbol of power and holding it in his hand foreshadowed the fact that Jehovah held it exclusively in his own power and keeping.
