The Seven Mountains in the North-West and the Tree of Life 24:1 And from thence I went to another place of the earth, and he showed me a mountain range of fire which burnt day and night. 24:2 And I went beyond it and saw seven magnificent mountains all differing each from the other, and the stones thereof were magnificent and beautiful, magnificent as a whole, of glorious appearance and fair exterior: three towards the east, one founded on the other, and three towards the south, one upon the other, and deep rough ravines, no one of which joined any other. 24:3 And the seventh mountain was in the midst of them, and it excelled them in height, resembling the seat of a throne: and fragrant trees encircled the throne. 24:4 And among them was a tree such as I had never yet smelt, neither was any amongst them nor were others like it: it had a fragrance beyond all fragrance, and its leaves and blooms and wood wither not for ever: and its fruit is beautiful and its fruit resembles the dates of a palm. 24:5 Then I said: How beautiful is this tree and fragrant, and its leaves are fair, and its blooms very delightful in appearance. 24:6 Then answered Michael, one of the holy and honoured angels who was with me, and was their leader. |
