Balai referred to the praise in Isaiah 6 in his madrasa On dedication of the church of Qennesrin and made the angelic proclamation a model of Christian liturgy that would take place in the new 'Sanctuary', the real heaven on earth. In Dialog III with Thomasios, John the Solitary explained the significance of the 'wings' of the Seraphs in Isaiah 6 with a brief but punctual exegesis: the 'wings' cover the vision of God, even though these same creatures, as Isaiah 6 proved, belonged to an elevated level of the world 'on high'. This hierarchical structure of various 'orders' of existing beings is included by John the Solitary in a coherent doctrine which includes an appreciation of man's creation in the condition of 'our world' and the hope in the 'world to come', namely the revelation of loving attention of God, who has reserved an even better condition for humanity.
