Chapter 23

1

AND I answered and said: Not so, O Yahuah, my Adonai.

2

And he answered and said unto me: Why therefore are you troubled about that which you know not, and why are you ill at ease about things in which you are ignorant?

3

For as you have not forgotten the people who now are and those who have passed away, so I remember those who are appointed to come.

4

Because when A'dam sinned and death was decreed against those who should be born, then the multitude of those who should be born was numbered, and for that number a place was prepared where the living might dwell and the dead might be guarded.

5

Before, therefore, the number aforesaid is fulfilled, the creature will not live again for my Ruach is the Creator of life, and She'ol will receive the dead.

6

And again it is given to you to hear what things are to come after these times.

7

For truly my redemption has drawn nigh, and is not far distant as aforetime.
