    Ze.1:7-17

    The Man Among the Myrtle Trees (2 of 3)

    The boisterous winds in heaven mirror on the earth so the sea is always synonymous for restless sea, "But the wicked are like the troubled sea, when it cannot rest, whose waters cast up mire and dirt."(Is.57:20). There is no stopping till God steps in and bring judgment upon the four beasts. So what peace are we looking at?

    The only answer is in the vision of St. John."And after these things I saw four angels standing on the four corners of the earth, holding the four winds of the earth,"(Re.7:1). From the following verses it shall be clear that a body of 'the nation of Israel' has to be preserved. They shall be as trees of righteousness as myrtle tree signifies. Compare with 144,000 the first fruits standing with the Lamb on Mount Sion.(Re.14:1)

    Who are they? There is no more temple worship, no king and no more Levitical priesthood. Yet we have here Joshua ( along with Zerubabbel) an historical personage figuring in the vision. "And he shewed me Joshua the high priest standing before the angel of theLord, and Satan standing at his right hand to resist him." Satan is resisting him before the most High, with 'facts'. But by holding up the four winds the angels at the command has set curfew 'which is the half an hour silence in heaven' signifying that Satan and his cohorts shall not interfere in this translation. "And when he had opened the seventh seal, there was silence in heaven about the space of half an hour." (Re.8:1)

    Thus a brief respite is allowed for the left-behind church to step into the void just as Seth stepped in place of Abel whom Cain slew. This group shall be in place of Israel till a remnant from them make up the body of Christ or New Jerusalem.
