The Holy Scripture
Chapter XX
'Therefore, behold! the days come, And the times shall hasten more than the former, And the seasons shall speed on more than those that are past, And the years shall pass more quickly than the present (years).
Therefore have I now taken away Zion, That I may the more speedily visit the world in its season.
Now therefore hold fast in your heart everything that I command you, And seal it in the recesses of your mind.
And then I will show you the judgment of My might, And My ways which are unsearchable.
Go therefore and sanctify thyself seven days, and eat no bread, nor drink water, nor speak to anyone.
And afterwards come to that place and I will reveal Myself to you, and speak true things with you, and I will give you commandment regarding the method of the times; for they are coming and tarry not.' 21:1-11. Fast of seven Days: Baruch's Prayer: God's Answer The Prayer of Baruch the Son of Neriah.
