The Purpose of the Accursed Valley 27:1 Then said I: ‘For what object is this blessed land, which is entirely filled with trees, and this accursed valley between? 27:2 Then Uriel, one of the holy angels who was with me, answered and said: ‘This accursed valley is for those who are accursed for ever: here shall all the accursed be gathered together who utter with their lips against Yehuveh unseemly words and of His glory speak hard things. Here shall they be gathered together, and here shall be their place of judgment. 27:3 In the last days there shall be upon them the spectacle of righteous judgment in the presence of the righteous for ever: here shall the merciful bless Yehuveh of Glory, the Eternal King. 27:4 In the days of judgment over the former, they shall bless Him for the mercy in accordance with which He has assigned them their lot.’ 27:5 Then I blessed Yehuveh of Glory and set forth His glory and lauded Him gloriously. |

27:3 The words the last days, like the phrase the time of the end used in Daniel 12:4, apply to a very specific time near the end of the final week of Daniel’s seventy-week prophecy, specifically during the closing of the seven years while Yehuveh is confirming His covenant with many. The final great judgment comes at this time. Gael Bataman Originally Written: 11 July 2006 Latest Update: 1 December 2011 Return to Zadok Home Continue . . .
