Contextual Overview
5 The Messenger-Angel appeared and said, "Look up. Tell me what you see." 6 I said, "What in the world is that?" He said, "This is a bushel basket on a journey. It holds the sin of everyone, everywhere." 7 Then the lid made of lead was removed from the basket—and there was a woman sitting in it! 8 He said, "This is Miss Wicked." He pushed her back down into the basket and clamped the lead lid over her. 9 Then I looked up and to my surprise saw two women flying. On outstretched wings they airlifted the bushel basket into the sky. 10 I said to the Messenger-Angel, "Where are they taking the bushel basket?" 11 He said, "East to the land of Shinar. They will build a garage to house it. When it's finished, the basket will be stored there."

Gill's Notes on the Bible
Then the angel that talked with me went forth,.... From the place where he was, and had been interpreting the vision of the flying roll, unto another more convenient for showing and explaining the following one; and, as it should seem, took the prophet along with him:
and said unto me, Lift up now thine eyes, and see what [is] this that goeth forth; either out of the temple or out of heaven, into some open place, where it might be seen.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
Then the angel went forth - From the choirs of angels, among whom, in the interval, he had retired, as before (Zephaniah 2:3 (7 Hebrew)) he had gone forth to meet another angel.
