of the Sanctuary: and the fruit thereof shall be for meat, and the leaf thereof for medicine [for bruises and sores].

[John vii. 39; Rev. xxii. 1-5; John xx. 29. The blessings of the Spiritual Kingdom surpass the Millennial Glory. 1 Pet. i. 3-11; Rev. xx. 6; Rom. viii. 16-18.]

RIGHTEOUS JUDGMENT METED OUT

THROUGH THE ENTIRE MILLENNIAL DAY.

Ps. ci. 6-8.

Mine eyes shall be upon the faithful of the Land, that they may dwell with me:

He that walketh perfect in the Way, he shall serve me.
He that worketh deceit shall not dwell within my house:
He that telleth lies shall not be established.

I will early destroy all the wicked of the Land;

That I may cut off all wicked doers from the city of The Lord.

Jer. xxxiii. 15. In those days, and at that Time, will I cause The Branch of Righteousness to grow up unto David; and He shall execute judgment and righteousness in the Land.

Isa. xxvi. 10-15. Let favour be shown to the wicked, yet will he not learn righteousness: in the Land of uprightness will he deal unjustly, and will not behold the Majesty of The Lord.

Lord! when Thy Hand is lifted up they will not see: but they shall see with confusion Thy zeal for Thy people; yea, the Fire shall devour Thine enemies. Lord! Thou wilt ordain peace for us: for Thou also hast wrought all our works for us. O Lord our God! other lords beside Thee have had dominion over us: but henceforth Thee only and Thy Name will we celebrate.

They are dead, they shall not live; they are deceased, they shall not rise therefore [because, Luke vii. 47] Thou hast visited and destroyed them, and made all their memory to perish.

Thou has increased the nation, O Lord! Thou hast increased the nation: Thou art glorified: Thou hadst removed far all the boundaries of the Land [2 Chr. ix. 26].

Isa. xxviii. 5, 6. In that Day shall The Lord of Hosts be for a Crown of Glory, and for a Diadem of Beauty, unto the residue of His people. And for a Spirit of Judgment [xi. 2-5] to him that sitteth in judgment, and for Strength to them that turn the battle to the gate.

Isa. xxxii. 3-8, 16-18. The eyes of them that see shall not be dim, and the ears of them that hear shall hearken. The heart also of the rash shall understand knowledge, and the tongue of the stammerers shall be ready to speak elegantly. The vile person shall be no more called liberal, nor the churl said to be bountiful. For the vile person will speak villany, and his heart will work iniquity, to practise hypocrisy, and to utter error against the Lord, to make empty the soul of the hungry, and he will cause the drink of the thirsty to fail. The instruments also of the churl are evil: he deviseth wicked devices to destroy the poor with lying words, even when he speaketh against the poor in judgment. But the liberal deviseth liberal things; and by liberal things shall he be established.

Then judgment shall dwell in the wilderness, and righteousness remain in the fruitful field. And the work of righteousness shall be peace; and the effect of righteousness quietness and assurance for ever. And My people shall dwell in a peaceable habitation, and in sure dwellings, and in quiet resting-places.

Isa. li. 1, 4-8. Hearken to Me, ye that follow after righteousness, ye that seek The Lord! Hearken unto Me, My people! and give ear unto Me, O My Nation! for a Law shall proceed from Me, and I will make My Judgment to rest for a light of the people. My Righteousness is near; My Salvation is gone forth, and Mine Arms shall Judge the people; the Isles shall wait upon Me, and on Mine Arm shall they trust.

Lift up your eyes to the heavens, and look upon the earth beneath! for the heavens shall vanish away like smoke, and the earth shall wax old like a garment, and they that dwell therein shall die in like

manner: but My Salvation shall be for ever, and My Righteousness shall not be abolished. Hearken unto Me, ye that know Righteousness, the people in whose heart is My Law! fear ye not the reproach of men, neither be ye afraid of their revilings! For the moth shall eat them up like a garment, and the worm shall eat them like wool: but My Righteousness shall be for ever, and My Salvation from generation to generation.

Isa. lviii. 8-14. Then shall thy light break forth as the morning, and thine health shall spring forth speedily: and thy Righteousness shall go before thee: The Glory of The Lord shall be thy Rearward. Then shalt thou call, and The Lord shall answer; thou shalt cry, and He shall say, "Here I am!" If thou take away from the midst of thee the yoke, the putting forth of the finger, and speaking vanity; and if thou draw out thy soul to the hungry, and satisfy the afflicted soul; then shall thy light rise in obscurity, and thy darkness be as the noonday: and The Lord shall guide thee continually, and satisfy thy soul in droughts, and make fat thy bones: and thou shalt be like a watered garden, and like a spring of water, whose waters fail [lie, deceive] not.

And they that be of thee shall build the old waste places: thou shalt raise up the foundations of many generations; and thou shalt be called "The repairer of the breach," "The restorer of paths to dwell in." If thou turn away thy foot from the Sabbath, from doing thy pleasure on My holy Day; and call the Sabbath a delight, the holy of The Lord, honourable; and shalt honour Him, not doing thine own ways, nor finding thine own pleasure, nor speaking thine own words: then shalt thou delight thyself in The Lord; and I will cause thee to ride upon the high places of the earth, and feed thee with the heritage of Jacob thy father: for the Mouth of The Lord hath spoken it.

Isa. lxv. 11-16. But ye are they that forsake The Lord, that forget My holy Mountain, Therefore thus saith The Lord God, "Behold! My servants shall eat, but ye shall be hungry: behold! My servants shall drink, but ye shall be thirsty: behold! My servants shall rejoice, but ye shall be ashamed: behold! My servants shall

sing for joy of heart, but ye shall cry for sorrow of heart, and shall howl for vexation [breaking] of spirit" [Zech. xiv. 16-19]. And ye shall leave your name for a curse unto My chosen for The Lord God shall slay thee, and call His servants by another name: that he who blesseth himself in the earth shall bless himself in The God of Truth; and he that sweareth in the earth shall swear by The God of Truth; because the former troubles are forgotten, and because they are hid from Mine eyes.

Ezek. xviii. 2-4, 30. What mean ye, that ye use this proverb concerning the Land of Israel, saying, "The fathers have eaten sour grapes and the children's teeth are set on edge?" As I live, saith The Lord God, ye shall not have any more to use this proverb in Israel. Behold! all souls are Mine; as the soul of the father, so also the soul of the son is Mine: the soul that sinneth, it shall die.

Therefore I will Judge you, O house of Israel! every one according to his ways, saith The Lord God. Repent, and turn from all your transgressions! so iniquity shall not be your ruin.

Jer. xxxi. 29, 30. In those days they shall say no more, "The fathers have eaten a sour grape, and the children's teeth are set on edge." But every one shall die for his own iniquity: every man that eateth the sour grape, his teeth shall be set on edge.

Ezek. xi. 19-21. And I will give them one heart, and I will put new spirit within you; and I will take the stony heart out of their flesh, and will give them an heart of flesh: that they may walk in My statutes, and keep Mine ordinances, and do them; and they shall be My people, and I will be their God. But as for them whose heart walketh after the heart of their detestable things and their abominations, I will recompense their way upon their own heads, saith The Lord God.

Mic. iv. 3-7. And He shall Judge among many people, and rebuke strong nations afar off; and they shall beat their swords into ploughshares, and their spears into pruning-hooks [scythes]: nation shall not lift up a sword against nation, neither shall they learn war any more. But they shall sit every man under his vine and under

his fig-tree; and none shall make them afraid: for the Mouth of The Lord of Hosts hath spoken it.

For all people will walk every one in the name of his god, and we will walk in The Name of The Lord our God for ever and ever.

In that Day, saith The Lord, will I assemble her that halteth, and I will gather her that is driven out, and her that I have afflicted; and I will make her that halted a remnant, and her that was cast far off a strong nation: and The Lord shall reign over them in Mount Zion from henceforth, even for ever.

Zech. xiv. 17-19 (Isa. lxvi. 24). And it shall be, that whoso will not come up of all the families of the earth unto Jerusalem to worship The King, The Lord of Hosts, even upon them shall be no rain. And if the family of Egypt go not up, and come not, upon whom there is not rain; there shall be the plague, wherewith The Lord will smite the heathen that come not up to keep the Feast of Tabernacles. This shall be the punishment [sin] of Egypt, and the punishment of all nations that come not up to keep the Feast of Tabernacles. [Shall perish, be utterly wasted: Isa. lx. 12.]

Zech. viii. 16-19. These are the things that ye shall do; Speak ye every man the truth to his neighbour; execute the judgment of truth and peace in your gates; and let none of you imagine evil in your hearts against his neighbour; and love no false oath! for all these are things that I hate, saith The Lord.

And the word of The Lord of Hosts came unto me, saying, Thus saith The Lord of Hosts; The Fast of the fourth month [the taking of the city by Nebuchadnezzar], and the Fast of the fifth [the burning of the House of The Lord, and the king's house]; and the Fast of the seventh [the assassination of Gedaliah whom Nebuchadnezzar had made governor of Jerusalem, and flight of the people into Egypt for fear of the Chaldees]; and the Fast of the tenth [the besieging of the city, Jer. lii. 4], shall be to the house of Judah joy and gladness, and cheerful Feasts [solemn, or set times]; therefore love the truth and peace!
