There are many passages in Scripture which foretell of a Great Tribulation Period that is to come upon the whole earth in the latter days. The Word describes the warning signs that period is quickly approaching, exactly how those years will play out, and what effect those events will have on heaven, earth, and their inhabitants in those days and the days thereafter. The study of those events and the order of their manifestation is called Eschatology. However, understanding the proper Eschatology Timeline often proves most difficult, because many of these passages are meant literally and others symbolically. Regardless, all the passages are written to be understood by all Believers, as their intended purpose is to prepare us for them (1 Thess. 5:1-3), encourage us as we experience them (1 Corin. 14:3), and to know the Father and Messiah are Who they say They are (John 16:4 & 13:19) because They foretold of them long before the day they come to pass. To properly discern the order of these events, we must receive the Set Apart Spirit of Prophecy (Rev. 19:10, John 15:26) by confessing our sin, believing the Good News of the Testimony of Messiah, repenting from sin, and become immersed for the forgiveness of sin (Acts 2:38). Although the revelation does not usually come all at once, the Set Apart Spirit does come to dwell within us to lead, guide, teach and remind us of "all truth" so we may grow up into perfection (John 14:26, Matt. 4:48). When we patiently allow the Spirit to lead us, we take an unbiased view of all the passages as they relate to one another and carefully consider the clues within each which express their order and both literal and symbolic meanings. Many critical passages are often referred to in the 66 Book Canon in passing but are expounded upon in some of the ancient canonized Books of Scripture included in the Eth Cepher in much greater detail. We have included some of those passages here to help the process of sorting them, although the same conclusions about the Eschatology Timeline could be drawn from simply using the 66 Book Modern Western Protestant Canon alone.
The Ages of Heaven and Earth
Scripture often prophesies particular events, blessings and curses which will manifest during specific periods of time. These time periods can often overlap, begin, and end with other periods, and as these events progress, we see scribes and prophets refer to them as manifesting “through the Ages” (Col. 1:26, Mark 10:30, Luke 18:30). In fact, usually when we see the English translation state a particular event shall last “forever ”, the words rendered “forever ” are best interpreted in the Hebrew and Greek as “through the ages” or “until the end of the Age”. We must carefully determine which Age the declaration begins and which Age it ends, rather than assume the word always means “throughout every age” as if the English word “forever” always means “eternally”. Chanak (Enoch) prophesies of the Ages of Heaven and Earth from the overarching plan of humanity from the Father’s point of view, which he expresses in chapter 93. These Ages seem to follow a general timeline of 1000 year periods, however as the latter days approach, the "Ages" seem to fluctuate depending on purpose.
Chanak/Enoch 93:1-4:
"After this, Chanak began to speak from a Caphar (Book). And Chanak said, concerning the Children of Righteousness, concerning the Elect of the World, and concerning the Plant of Righteousness and Integrity. These things will I speak of, and will I explain to you, my children: I am Chanak. In consequence of that which has been shown to me, from my Heavenly Vision and from the Voice of the Watchers and Set Apart Ones, have I acquired Knowledge; and from the Tablet of Heaven have I acquired Understanding. Chanak then began to speak from a Caphar, and said:
The Age of Great Tribulation
We see in 1 Chanak/Enoch 93 there is a period of Great Distress which falls on a most "perverse generation" during 7th Age, at which time the Righteous are “selected from the Eternal Plant”. This period is known as the Seven Year Tribulation Period which is divided into two parts of 3.5 years of "1260 days" each, or "forty-two (30 day) months", or "a time, time and half a time," or "3.5 days", meaning 3 years and a half years according to verses found in 2 Baruk 29:1-6, 4 Ezra 7:29-31, Daniel 9:24-27, Rev. 11:1-12 and Rev. 12:6 & 14:
“Nevertheless, whosoever Understands shall then be Wise. For the measure and reckoning of that time are two parts a week of seven weeks. And I answered and said: It is good for a man to come and behold, but it is better that he should not come lest he fall. But I will say this also: 'Will he who is incorruptible despise those things which are corruptible, and whatsoever befalls in the case of those things which are corruptible, so that he might look only to those things which are not corruptible?' But if, O Yahuah, those things shall assuredly come to pass which You have foretold to me, so do you show this also unto me if indeed I have found grace in your sight. Is it in one place or in one of the parts of the earth that those things are come to pass, or will the whole earth experience them?”
-2 Baruk 28:1-6
"And the world shall be turned into the old silence seven days, like as in the former Judgments: so that no man shall remain. And after seven days the world, that yet awakens not, shall be raised up, and that shall die that is corrupt."
-4 Ezra 7:30-31
"24Seventy weeks [490 years] are decreed for your People [Yasharal: Rom. 11] and for your Set Apart City [Yarushalam], to put an end to the transgression, and to seal up sins, and to cover crookedness, and to bring in Everlasting Righteousness [lit. the Olam/Age of Righteousness], and to seal up vision and prophet [The Messiah's First Coming: Mt. 5:17-18, Lk. 24:26-27, Jn. 28-30,], and to Anoint the Most Set Apart(a). 25Know, then, and understand: from the going forth of the command to restore and build Yarushalam(b) until Messiah the Prince(c) is 7 weeks [49 years](d) and 62 weeks [434 years](e) [69 total weeks/483 total years]. It shall be built again, with streets and a trench, but in Times of Affliction. 26And after the 62 weeks [434 years] Messiah shall be cut off and have naught. And the people of a coming prince [The Anti-messiah] shall destroy the City and the Set Apart Place. And the end of it is with a flood [Rev. 12:13-17]. And wastes are decreed, and fighting until the end. 27And he
shall confirm a Covenant with many for 1 week [7 years]. And in the middle of the week [3.5 years] he shall put an end to slaughtering and meal offering. And on the Wing of Abominations he shall lay waste, even until the complete End [end of the 7 Years] and that which is Decreed is poured out on the one who lays waste.”
-DanyAl/Daniel 9:24-27
(a) That is 490 Total Years from the Decree of the End of the Southern Kingdom's Dispersion to the beginning of the New Covenant Age when the Messiah would be sacrificed to atone for His People's transgressions of the First Covenant Age after He was Anointed with the Set Apart Spirit upon His Immersion (27 CE, at 30 Years of Age), until He Returns to reclaim His Bride at the End of the Age
(b) That is from the time that Cyrus gave Yasharal a Decree (official permission) to depart from exile and to rebuild the Temple (2 Chron. 36:22-23, Ezra 1:1-4 & 6:1-5 in 536/538 BC)
(c) That is until the Messiah's Immersion (27 CE), "anointing of the Set Apart Spirit" (John 1)
(d) These weeks make 49 years, of which 46 are referred to the time of the building of the Second Temple, and 3 to the laying of the foundation (Isa. 44:28, Ezra 1:1-5, 2 Chron. 36:19-23, Ezra 6:1-15)
(e) Counting from the 6th year of Darius, who gave the second commandment for the building of the Temple is 62 weeks, which totals 434 years, which was the time from the building of the Second Temple until the Messiah's cutting off
The 69 weeks were accomplished between the decree of the building of the Second Temple and the time of the Messiah. However, the last 7 years are separate and will happen at the “End of the Age” as the last 7 years before His Second Coming.
Understanding the Signs of the Seasons
Although the Age of the Great Tribulation seems to be a very short period, more will happen in those short years than one can imagine. To understand the Signs of that season and separate the events which take place before and after, we must refer to several passages of Scripture which discuss their order. Although the following passages are not exhaustive, these include key phrases which help us to begin sorting the end of one Age as another begins, and those events which fall within each.
“4And Yahusha answering, said to them, “Take heed that no one leads you astray. 5For many shall come in My Name, saying, ‘I am the Messiah,’ and they shall lead many astray. 6“And you shall begin to hear of fightings and reports of fightings. See that you are not troubled, for these have to take place, but the end is not yet. 7For nation shall rise against nation, and reign against reign. And there shall be scarcities of food, and deadly diseases, and earthquakes in places. 8And all these are the beginning of Birth Pains. 9Then they shall deliver you up to affliction and kill you, and you shall be hated by all nations for My
Name’s sake. 10And then many shall stumble, and they shall deliver up one another, and shall hate one another. 11And many false prophets shall rise up and lead many astray. 12And because of the increase in lawlessness, the love of many shall become cold. 13But he who shall have endured to the end shall be saved. 14And this Good News of the Reign shall be Proclaimed in all the world as a Witness to all the nations [Rev. 12 Signs], and then the end shall come. 15So when you see the ‘Abomination of Desolation,’ spoken of by Danial the prophet, set up in the Set Apart Place – he who reads, let him understand – 16then let those who are in Yahudah (Judea) flee to the mountains [Petra in the Mountains of Seir]. 17Let him who is on the house-top not come down to take whatever out of his house. 18And let him who is in the field not turn back to get his garments. 19And woe to those who are pregnant and to those who are nursing children in those days! 20And pray that your flight does not take place in winter or on the Sabbath. 21For then there shall be Great Distress, such as has not been since the beginning of the world until this time, no, nor ever shall be. 22And if those days were not shortened [Enoch 93 discusses this millennia is shortened not to last the full 1000 years!], no flesh would be saved, but for the sake of the Chosen Ones those days shall be shortened. 23If anyone then says to you, ‘Look, here is the Messiah!’ or ‘There!’ do not believe. 24For false messiahs and false prophets shall arise, and they shall show great signs and wonders, so as to lead astray, if possible, even the Chosen Ones. 25See, I have forewarned you. 26So if they say to you, ‘Look, He is in the desert!’ do not go out; or ‘Look, He is in the inner rooms!’ do not believe. 27For as the lightning comes from the east and shines to the west, so also shall the Coming of the Son of Adam be. 28For wherever the dead body is, there the eagles shall be gathered together. 29And immediately after the Distress of those days the sun shall be darkened, and the moon shall not give its light, and the stars shall fall from the heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken. 30And then the Sign of the Son of Adam shall appear in the heaven, and then all the tribes of the earth shall mourn, and they shall see the Son of Adam Coming on the clouds of the heaven with Power and much Glory. 31And He shall send His Messengers with a Great Sound of a Trumpet, and they shall gather together His chosen ones from the four winds [Second Exodus End], from one end of the heavens to the other. 32And learn this parable from the fig tree: When its branch has already become tender and puts forth leaves, you know that the summer is near [a sign when Believers begin returning to Torah]. 33So you also, when you see all these, know that He is near, at the doors. 34Truly, I say to you, this generation shall by no means pass away until all this takes place [all these Signs happen within 70 years, [Psalms 90:10]. 35The heaven and the earth shall pass away, but My Words shall by no means pass away. 36But concerning that day and the hour no one knows, not even the Messengers of the Heavens, but My Father only. 37And as the days of Nuach (Noah), so also shall the Coming of the Son of Adam be. 38For as they were in the days before the flood, eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Nuach entered into the ark, 39and they did not know until the flood came and took them all away, so also shall the Coming of the Son of Adam be. 40Then two shall be in the field, the one is taken and the one is left. 41Two shall be grinding at the mill, one is taken and one is left. 42Watch therefore [Continue in The Way, Natsarym],
for you do not know what hour your Master is Coming.”
-Matthew 24:4-42
“6And the Woman fled into the wilderness, where she has a place prepared by Alahym, to be nourished there 1260 days… “14And the woman was given two wings of a great eagle, to fly into the wilderness to her place, where she is nourished for a time and times and half a time, from the presence of the Serpent. 15And out of his mouth the Serpent spewed water like a river after the Woman, to cause her to be swept away by the river. 16And the earth helped the Woman, and the earth opened its mouth and swallowed up the river which the Dragon had spewed out of his mouth. 17And the Dragon was enraged with the woman, and he went to fight with the Remnant of Her Seed: those Guarding the commands of Alahym and possessing the Witness of Yahusha Messiah.”
-Revelation 12:6, 14-17
“And whereas you saw 2 feathers under the wings passing over the head that is on the right side; 'It signifies that these are they, whom Al Alyun has kept unto their end: this is the Small Kingdom and Full of Trouble [Yasharal, Jer. 30:7 as defined in Rom. 11], as you saw. 'And the Lion, whom you saw rising up out of the wood, and roaring, and speaking to the eagle, and rebuking her for her unrighteousness with all the Words which you have heard; 'This is the Anointed [Messiah] which Al Alyun has kept for them and for their wickedness unto the end: He shall reprove them, and shall upbraid them with their cruelty. 'For He shall set them before Him alive in Judgment, and shall rebuke them, and correct them [sanctify the two feathers in the Tribulation while the eagle is destroyed]. 'For the rest of My People [the Sealed 144k out of Yasharal] shall He deliver with Mercy, those that have been pressed upon My borders, and He shall make them joyful until the Coming of the Day of Judgment, whereof I have Spoken unto you from the Beginning.'"
-4 Ezra 12:29-34
“And it came to pass after seven days, I dreamed a dream by night: 'And, lo, there arose a wind from the sea, that it moved all the waves thereof. 'And I beheld, and, lo, that a man waxed strong with the thousands of heaven: and when He turned His countenance to look, all the things trembled that were seen under Him. 'And whensoever the Voice went out of His mouth, all they burned that heard His voice, like as the earth fails when it feels the fire. 'And after this I beheld, and, lo, there was gathered together a multitude of men, out of number, from the four winds of the heaven, to subdue the man that came out of the sea. 'But I beheld, and, lo, He had graved Himself a great mountain, and flew up upon it. ‘But I would have seen the region or place whereout the hill was graven, and I could not. 'And after this I beheld, and, lo, all they which were gathered together to subdue Him were sore afraid, and yet dared fight. And, lo, as He saw the violence of the multitude that came, He neither lifted up His hand, nor held sword, nor any instrument of war: 'But only I saw that He sent out of His mouth as it had been a blast of fire, and out of His lips a flaming breath, and out of His tongue He cast out sparks and tempests. And they were all mixed together; the blast of fire, the flaming breath, and the great tempest; and fell with violence upon the multitude which was prepared to fight, and burned them up everyone, so that upon a sudden of an innumerable multitude nothing was to be perceived, but only dust and smell of smoke: when I saw this I was afraid. Afterward saw I the same Man come down from the mountain, and call unto Him another Peaceable Multitude. 'And there came much people unto Him, whereof some were glad, some were sorry, and some of them were bound, and other some brought of them that were offered: then was I sick through great fear, and I awakened, and said, 'You have showed your servant these wonders from the Beginning, and have counted me worthy that you should receive my prayer: 'Show me now yet the interpretation of this dream.
'For as I conceive in my understanding, woe unto them that shall be left in those days and much more woe unto them that are not left behind! 'For they that were not left were in heaviness. 'Now understand I the things that are laid up in the latter days, which shall happen unto them, and to those that are left behind. 'Therefore are they come into great perils and many necessities, like as these dreams declare. Yet is it easier for him that is in danger to come into these things, than to pass away as a cloud out of the world, and not to see the things that happen in the last days. And he answered unto me, and said, The interpretation of the vision shall I show you, and I will open unto you the thing that you have required. Whereas you have spoken of them that are left behind, this is the interpretation: He that shall endure the Peril in that time has kept himself: they that be fallen into danger are such as have Works, and Belief toward AL SHADDAI. Know this therefore, that they which be left behind are more blessed than they that be dead. This is the meaning of the vision. Whereas you saw a Man coming up from the midst of the sea: The same is He Whom AL ALYUN has kept a great season, which by His Own Self shall deliver His Creature: and He shall order them that are left behind. And whereas you saw, that out of His mouth there came as a blast of wind, and fire, and storm; And that He held neither sword, nor any instrument of war, but that the rushing in of Him destroyed the whole multitude that came to subdue Him. This is the interpretation: 'Behold, the days come, when AL ALYUN will begin to deliver them that are upon the earth [Beginning of the Second Exodus]. And He shall come to the astonishment of them that dwell on the earth. And one shall undertake to fight against another, one city against another, one place against another, one people against another, and one realm against another. And the time shall be when these things shall come to pass, and the Signs shall happen which I showed you before, and then shall my Son be declared, Whom you saw as a man ascending. And when all the people hear His voice, every man shall in their own land leave the battle they have one against another. And an innumerable multitude shall be gathered together, as you saw them, willing to come, and to overcome Him by fighting. But He shall stand upon the top of Mount Tsayan. And Tsayan shall come, and shall be showed to all men, being prepared and built, like as you saw the hill graven without hands. And this My Son shall rebuke the wicked inventions of those nations, which for their wicked life are fallen into the tempest; And shall lay before them their evil thoughts, and the torments wherewith they shall begin to be tormented, which are like unto a flame: and He shall destroy them without labour by the Torah which is like unto Me. And whereas you saw that He gathered another Peaceable Multitude unto Him; Those are the Ten Tribes, which were carried away prisoners out of their own land in the time of Husha the king [Northern Kingdom of Yasharal “Aphraym’s” Last King who reigned 735-724 BCE], whom Shalman'ecer the king of Ashshur led away captive, and he carried them over the waters, and so came they into another land. But they took this Counsel among themselves, that they would leave the multitude of the heathen, and go forth into a further country, where never mankind dwelt, That they might there Guard their Statutes, which they never kept in their own land. And they entered into Perath [Euphrates River] by the Narrow Places of the river. For AL ALYUN then showed Signs for them, and held still the flood, till they were passed over. For through that country there was a great way to go, namely, of a year and a half: and the same region is called ‘Arzarath’ [Arzarath: Hebrew for “Another Land”, Deut. 29:28 This is North America as it was called “New Foundland” and the “New World” and by ship in those days from the Persian Gulf would take 1.5 years to sail]. Then dwelt they there until the Latter Time; and now when they shall begin to come, AL ALYUN shall stay the springs of the stream again, that they may go through: therefore saw you the Multitude with Peace. But those that be left behind of your People are they that are found within My borders. Now when He destroys the multitude of the nations that are gathered together, He shall defend His people that remain. And then shall he show them great wonders. Then said I, O YAHUAH ADUNAI, show me this: Wherefore have I seen the man coming up from the midst of the sea? And He said unto me, Like as you can neither seek out nor know the things that are in the deep of the sea: even so can no man upon earth see My Son, or those that be with Him, but in the daytime."
-4 Ezra/Esdras 13:1-52
“13Now, brothers, we do not wish you to be ignorant concerning those who have fallen asleep, lest you be sad as others who have no Expectation. 14For if we Believe that Yahusha died and rose again, so also Alahym shall bring with Him those who sleep in Yahusha. 15For this we say to you by the Word of the Master, that we, the living who are left over at the Coming of the Master shall in no way go before those who are asleep. 16Because the Master Himself shall come down from heaven with a shout, with the Voice of a Chief Messenger, and with the Trumpet of Alahym, and the dead in Messiah shall rise first. 17Then we, the living who are left over, shall be caught away together with them in the clouds to meet the Master in the air – and so we shall always be with the Master.”
-1 Thessalonians 4:13-17
“[59] He answered me and said, "Weigh within yourself what you have thought, for he who has what is hard to get rejoices more than he who has what is plentiful. [60] So also will be the judgment which I have promised; for I will rejoice over the few who shall be saved, because it is they who have made my glory to prevail now, and through them my name has now been honored. [61] And I will not grieve over the multitude of those who perish; for it is they who are now like a mist, and are similar to a flame and smoke -- they are set on fire and burn hotly, and are extinguished." [62] I replied and said, "O earth, what have you brought forth, if the mind is made out of the dust like the other created things! [63] For it would have been better if the dust itself had not been born, so that the mind might not have been made from it. [64] But now the mind grows with us, and therefore we are tormented, because we perish and know it. [65] Let the human race lament, but let the beasts of the
field be glad; let all who have been born lament, but let the four-footed beasts and the flocks rejoice! [66] For it is much better with them than with us; for they do not look for a judgment, nor do they know of any torment or salvation promised to them after death. [67] For what does it profit us that we shall be preserved alive but cruelly tormented? [68] For all who have been born are involved in iniquities, and are full of sins and burdened with transgressions. [69] And if we were not to come into judgment after death, perhaps it would have been better for us." [70] He answered me and said, "When the Most High made the world and Adam and all who have come from him, He first prepared the judgment and the things that pertain to the judgment. [71] And now understand from your own words, for you have said that the mind grows with us. [72] For this reason, therefore, those who dwell on earth shall be tormented, because though they had understanding they committed iniquity, and though they received the commandments they did not keep them, and though
they obtained the law they dealt unfaithfully with what they received. [73] What, then, will they have to say in the judgment, or how will they answer in the last times? [74] For how long the time is that the Most High has been patient with those who inhabit the world, and not for their sake, but because of the times which he has foreordained!" [75] I answered and said, "If I have found favor in thy sight, O Adonai, show this also to thy servant: whether after death, as soon as every one of us yields up his soul, we shall be kept in rest until those
times come when thou wilt renew the creation, or whether we shall be tormented at once?"
[76] He answered me and said, "I will show you that also, but do not be associated with those who have shown scorn, nor number yourself among those who are tormented. [77] For you have a treasure of works laid up with the Most High; but it will not be shown to you until the last times. [78] Now, concerning death, the teaching is: When the decisive decree has gone forth from the Most High that a man shall die, as the Spirit leaves the body to return again to him who gave it, first of all it adores the glory of the Most High. [79] And if it is one of those who have shown scorn and have not kept The Way of the Most High, and who have despised his law, and who have hated those who fear Alahym -- [80] such spirits shall not enter into habitations, but shall immediately wander about in torments, ever
grieving and sad, in seven ways. [81] The first way, because they have scorned the law of the Most High. [82] The second way, because they cannot now make a good repentance that they may live. [83] The third way, they shall see the reward laid up for those who have trusted the covenants of the Most High. [84] The fourth way, they shall consider the torment laid up for themselves in the last days. [85] The fifth way, they shall see how
the habitations of the others are guarded by angels in profound quiet. [86] The sixth way, they shall see how some of them will pass over into torments. [87] The seventh way, which is worse than all the ways that have been mentioned, because they shall utterly waste away in confusion and be consumed with shame, and shall wither with fear at seeing the glory of the Most High before Whom they sinned while they were alive, and before Whom they are to be judged in the Last Times. [88] "Now this is the order of those who have kept The Ways of the Most High, when they shall be separated from their mortal body. [89] During the time that they lived in it, they laboriously served the Most High, and withstood danger every hour, that they might keep the law of the Lawgiver perfectly. [90] Therefore this is the teaching concerning them: [91] First of all, they shall see with great joy the glory of Him who receives them, for they shall have rest in seven orders. [92] The first order, because they have striven with great effort to overcome the evil thought which was formed with them, that it might not lead them astray from life into death. [93] The second order, because they see the perplexity in which the souls of the unrighteous wander, and the punishment that awaits them. [94] The third order, they see the witness which He who formed them bears concerning them, that while they were alive they kept the law which was given them in trust. [95] The fourth order, they understand the rest which they now enjoy, being gathered into their chambers and guarded by angels in profound quiet, and the glory which awaits them in the last days. [96] The fifth order, they rejoice that they have now escaped what is corruptible, and shall inherit what is to come; and besides they see the straits and toil from which they have been delivered, and the spacious liberty which they are to receive and enjoy in immortality. [97] The sixth order, when it is shown to them how their face is to shine like the sun, and how they are to be made like the light of the stars, being incorruptible from then on. [98] The seventh order, which is greater than all that have been mentioned, because they shall rejoice with boldness, and shall be confident without confusion, and shall be glad without fear, for they hasten to behold the face of Him Whom they served in life and from Whom they are to receive their reward when glorified. [99] This is the order of the souls of the Righteous, as henceforth is announced; and the aforesaid are the ways of torment which those who would not give heed shall suffer hereafter." [100] I answered and said, "Will time therefore be given to the souls, after they have been separated from the bodies, to see what you have described to me?" [101] He said to me, "They shall have freedom for seven days, so that during these seven days they may see the things of which you have been told, and afterwards they shall be gathered in their habitations." [102] I answered and said, "If I have found favor in thy sight, show further to me, thy servant, whether on the Day of Judgment the Righteous will be able to intercede for the unrighteous or to entreat the Most High for them, [103] fathers for sons or sons for parents, brothers for brothers, relatives for their kinsmen, or friends for those who are most dear." [104] He answered me and said, "Since you have found favor in my sight, I will show you this also. The Day of Judgment is decisive and displays to all the seal of truth. Just as now a father does not send his son, or a son his father, or a master his servant, or a friend his dearest friend, to be ill or sleep or eat or be healed in his stead, [105] so no one shall ever pray for another on that day, neither shall any one lay a burden on another; for then every one shall bear his own Righteousness and unrighteousness." [36(106)] I answered and said, "How then do we find that first Abraham prayed for the people of Sodom, and Moses for our fathers who sinned in the desert, [37(107)] and Joshua after him for Israel in the days of Achan, [38(108)] and Samuel in the days of Saul, and David for the plague, and Solomon for those in the sanctuary, [39(109)] and Elijah for those who received the rain, and for the one who was dead, that he might live, [40(110)] and Hezekiah for the people in the days of Sennacherib, and many others prayed for many? [41(111)] If therefore the Righteous have prayed for the unrighteous now, when corruption has increased and unrighteousness has multiplied, why will it not be so then as well?" [42(112)] He answered me and said, "This present world is not the end; the full glory does not abide in it; therefore those who were strong prayed for the weak. [43(113)] But the Day of Judgment will be the End of this Age and the Beginning of the Immortal Age to come, in which corruption has passed away, [44(114)] sinful indulgence has come to an end, unbelief has been cut off, and Righteousness has increased and Truth has appeared. [45(115)] Therefore no one will then be able to have mercy on him who has been condemned in the Judgment, or to harm him who is victorious." -4 Ezra/Esdras 7:59-115
“AND he answered and said unto me: You too shall be preserved till that time till that Sign which AL ALYUN will work for the inhabitants of the earth in the End of Days. This therefore shall be the Sign. When a stupor shall seize the inhabitants of the earth, and they shall fall into many Tribulations, and again when they shall fall into Great Torments. And it will come to pass when they say in their thoughts by reason of their much Tribulation: AL ALAHYM no longer remembers the earth yea, it will come to pass when they abandon hope, that the Time will then awake.”
-2 Baruch25:1-4
“And I answered and said: Will that Tribulation which is to be continue a long time, and will that necessity embrace many years?” -2 Baruch 26:1
“And he answered and said unto me: Into twelve parts is that Time divided,
and each one of them is reserved for that which is Appointed for it.
In the First Part there shall be the Beginning of Commotions.
And in the Second Part there shall be slayings of the great ones.
And in the Third Part the fall of many by death.
And in the Fourth Part the sending of the sword.
And in the Fifth Part famine and the Withholding of Rain.
And in the Sixth Part earthquakes and terrors.
Wanting. [the 7th Part]
And in the Eighth Part a multitude of Spectres and attacks of the Shediym.
And in the Ninth Part the fall of fire.
And in the Tenth Part rapine and much oppression.
And in the Eleventh Part wickedness and unchastity.
And in the Twelfth Part confusion from the mingling together of all those things aforesaid.
For these Parts of that Time are reserved,
and shall be mingled one with another and minister one to another.
For some shall leave out some of their own, and receive in its stead from others,
and some complete their own and that of others,
so that those may not understand who are upon the earth in those days
that this is the "Consummation of the Times."”
-2 Baruch 27:1-15
“Nevertheless, whosoever Understands shall then be Wise. For the Measure and Reckoning of that Time are two parts a week of seven weeks. And I answered and said: It is good for a man to come and behold, but it is better that he should not come lest he fall. But I will say this also: Will he who is incorruptible despise those things which are corruptible, and whatsoever befalls in the case of those things which are corruptible, so that he might look only to those things which are not corruptible? But if, O YAHUAH, those things shall assuredly come to pass which you have foretold to me, so do you show this also unto
me if indeed I have found grace in your sight. Is it in one place or in one of the parts of the earth that those things are come to pass, or will the whole earth experience them?”
-2 Baruch 28:1-6
“And He answered and said unto me: Whatsoever will then befall will befall the whole earth; therefore all who live will experience them. For at That Time, I will protect only those who are found in those selfsame Days in this Land. And it shall come to pass when all is accomplished that was to come to pass in those Parts, that the Messiah shall then begin to be revealed. And Behemoth shall be revealed from his place and Leviathan shall ascend from the sea, those two great monsters which I created on the fifth day of creation, and shall have kept until that Time; and then they shall be for food for all that are left. The earth also shall yield its fruit ten thousandfold and on each vine there shall be a thousand branches, and each branch shall produce a thousand clusters, and each cluster produce a thousand grapes, and each grape produce a cor of wine. And those who have hungered shall rejoice: moreover, also, they shall behold marvels every day. For winds shall go forth from before me to bring every morning the fragrance of aromatic fruits, and at the close of the day clouds distilling the dew of health. And it shall come to pass at that selfsame Time that the treasury of manna shall again descend from on high, and they will eat of it in Those Years, because these are they who have come to the Consummation of Time.”
-2 Baruch 29:1-8
“And it shall come to pass after these things, when the Time of the Advent of the Messiah is fulfilled, that He shall Return in Glory. Then all who have fallen asleep in hope of Him shall rise again. And it shall come to pass at that Time that the treasuries will be opened in which is preserved the number of the souls of the Righteous, and they shall come forth, and a multitude of souls shall be seen together in One Assemblage of one Thought, and the first shall rejoice and the last shall not be grieved. For they know that the Time has Come of which it is said, that it is the "Consummation of the Times". But the souls of the wicked, when they behold all these things, shall then waste away the more. For they shall know that their torment has come and their perdition has arrived.”
-2 Baruch 30:1-5
“BUT as for you, if ye prepare your hearts, so as to sow in them the fruits of the Torah, it shall protect you in that Time in which AL ALAHYM is to shake the whole creation. Because after a little time the building of Tsayan will be shaken in order that it may be built again. But that building will not remain, but will again after a time be rooted out, and will remain desolate until the Time. And afterwards it must be Renewed in Glory, and Perfected forevermore. Therefore, we should not be distressed so much over the evil which has now come as over that which is still to be. For there will be a Greater Trial than these two tribulations when AL ALAHYM will Renew His Creation. And now do not draw near to me for a few days, nor seek me till I come to you. And it came to pass when I had spoken to them all these Words, that I, Baruch, went my way, and when the people saw me setting out, they lifted up their voice and lamented and said: Whither do you depart from us, Baruch, and forsake us as a father who forsakes his orphan children, and departs from them?”
-2 Baruch 32:1-9
“And he answered and said unto me: Baruch, this is the interpretation of the Vision which you have seen. As you have seen the great forest which lofty and rugged mountains surrounded, this is the word. Behold! the Days Come, and this kingdom will be destroyed which once destroyed Tsayan, and it will be subjected to that which Comes after it. Moreover, that also again after a Time will be destroyed, and another, a third, will arise, and that also will have dominion for its Time, and will be destroyed. And after these things a fourth kingdom will arise, whose power will be harsh and evil far beyond those which were before it, and it will rule many times as the forests on the plain, and it will hold fast for Times, and will exalt itself more than the cedars of Lebanon. And by it the Truth will be hidden, and all those who are polluted with iniquity will flee to it, as evil beasts flee and creep into the forest. And it will come to pass when the Time of its Consummation that it should fall has approached, then the Principate of My Messiah will be revealed, which is like the fountain and the vine, and when it is revealed it will root out the multitude of its host. And as touching that which you have seen, the lofty cedar, which was left of that forest, and the fact, that the Vine spoke those Words with it which you did hear, this is the Word.” -2 Baruch 39:1-8
“The last leader of That Time will be left alive, when the multitude of his hosts will be put to the sword, and he will be bound, and they will take him up to Mount Tsayan, and My Messiah will convict him of all his impieties, and will gather and set before him all the works of his hosts. And afterwards he will put him to death, and protect the rest of my people which shall be found in the place which I have chosen. And His Principate will stand forever, until the world of corruption is at an end, and until the Times aforesaid are fulfilled. This is your Vision, and this is its interpretation.”
-2 Baruch 40:1-4
“And it shall come to pass in those days that all the inhabitants of the earth shall be moved one against another because they know not that My Judgement has drawn nigh. For there shall not be found many Wise at that Time, and the Intelligent shall be but a few. Moreover, even those who Know shall most of all be silent. And there shall be many rumours and tidings not a few and the doings of Phantasmata shall be manifest and promises not a few be recounted. Some of them shall prove idle, And some of them shall be confirmed. And honour shall be turned into shame and strength humiliated into contempt and probity destroyed and beauty shall become ugliness. And many shall say to many at that Time: Where has the multitude of Intelligence hidden itself and whither has the multitude of Wisdom removed itself? And while they are meditating on these things, then envy shall arise in those who had not thought ought of themselves and passion shall seize him that is peaceful, And many shall be stirred up in anger to injure many, and they shall rouse up armies in order to shed blood and in the end they shall perish together with them. And it shall come to pass at the selfsame Time that a Change of Times shall manifestly appear to every man because in all those Times they polluted themselves, and they practiced oppression, and walked every man in his own works, and remembered not the Torah of AL ALAHYM. Therefore, a fire shall consume their thoughts and in flame shall the meditations of their mind be tried. For the Judge shall come and will not tarry. Because each of the inhabitants of the earth knew when he was transgressing, but My Torah they knew not by reason of their pride. But many shall then assuredly weep, yea over the living more than over the dead.” -2 Baruch 48:32-41
“Nevertheless, I will again ask from you, O AL ALAHYM, yea, I will ask mercy from Him Who made all things. In what shape will those live who live in Your day? Or how will the splendour of those who are after that Time continue? Will they then resume this form of the present and put on these entrammelling members which are now involved in evils and in which evils are consummated or will you perchance change these things which have been in the world as also the world?” -2 Baruch 49:1-3
“And he answered and said unto me: Hear Baruch this Word and Write in the Remembrance of your heart all that you shall learn. For the earth shall then assuredly restore the dead, which it now receives, in order to preserve them. It shall make no change in their form, but as it has received so shall it restore them, and as I delivered them unto it, so also shall it raise them. For then it will be necessary to show to the living that the dead have come to life again, and that those who had departed have returned again. And it shall come to pass when they have severally recognized those whom they now know, then Judgment shall grow strong, and those things which before were Spoken of shall Come.”
-2 Baruch 50:1-4
“And it shall come to pass, when that appointed day has gone by that then shall the aspect of those who are condemned be afterwards changed, and the glory of those who are Justified. For the aspect of those who now act wickedly shall become worse than it is, as they shall suffer torment. Also as for the glory of those who have now been Justified in My Torah, who have had Understanding in their life, and who have Planted in their heart the Root of Wisdom, then their splendour shall be glorified in changes, and the form of their face shall be turned into the light of their beauty, that they may be able to acquire and receive the world which does not die, which is then Promised to them. For over this above all shall those who come then lament that they rejected my Torah and stopped their ears that they might not hear Wisdom or receive Understanding. When therefore they see those, over whom they are now Exalted, but who shall then be exalted and glorified more than they, they shall respectively be transformed the latter into the splendour of angels, and the former shall yet more waste away in wonder at the visions and in the beholding of the forms. For they shall first behold, and afterwards depart to be tormented. But those who have been saved by their works and to whom the Torah has been now a hope and understanding an expectation and wisdom a confidence shall wonders appear in their Time. For they shall behold the world which is now invisible to them and they shall behold the Time which is now hidden from them: And Time shall no longer age them. For in the heights of that world shall they dwell and they shall be made like unto the angels and be made equal to the stars, and they shall be changed into every form they desire, from beauty into loveliness, and from light into the splendour of glory. For there shall be spread before them the extents of Paradise, and there shall be shown to them the beauty of the majesty of the living creatures which are beneath the Throne and all the armies of the angels who are now held fast by My Word, lest they should appear, and are held fast by a Command, that they may stand in their places till their Advent Comes. Moreover, there shall then be Excellency in the Righteous surpassing that in the angels. For the first shall receive the last, those whom they were expecting, and the last those of whom they used to hear that they had passed away. For they have been delivered from this world of Tribulation and laid down the burden of anguish. For what then have men lost their life and for what have those who were on the earth exchanged their soul? For then they chose not for themselves this Time which beyond the reach of anguish could not pass away: but they chose for themselves that Time whose issues are full of lamentations and evils; and they denied the world which ages not those who come to it; and they rejected the Time of glory so that they shall not come to the honour of which I told you before.” -2 Baruch 51:1-16
“And I answered and said: How can we forget those for whom woe is then reserved? And why therefore do we again mourn for those who die? Or why do we weep for those who depart to Sheol? Let lamentations be reserved for the beginning of that Coming torment and let tears be laid up for the Advent of the destruction of that Time. But even in the face of these things will I speak and as for the Righteous what will they do now? Rejoice ye in the suffering which ye now suffer: for why do ye look for the decline of your enemies? Make ready your soul for that which is reserved for you and prepare your souls for the reward which is laid up for you.” -2 Baruch 52:1-6
“Hear therefore the interpretation of the last black waters which are to come after the black: this is the word. Behold! The Days come, and it shall be when the time of the Age has ripened, and the harvest of its evil and good seeds has come, that AL ALAHYM will bring upon the earth and its inhabitants and upon its rulers Perturbation of the Ruach and stupor of heart. And they shall hate one another, and provoke one another to fight, and the mean shall rule over the honourable, and those of low degree shall be extolled above the famous. And the many shall be delivered into the hands of the few, and those who were nothing shall rule over the strong, and the poor shall have abundance beyond the rich, and the impious shall exalt themselves above the heroic. And the wise shall be silent, and the foolish shall speak, neither shall the thought of men be then confirmed, nor the counsel of the mighty, nor shall the hope of those who hope be confirmed. And when those things which were predicted have come to pass, then shall confusion fall upon all men, and some of them shall fall in battle, and some of them shall perish in anguish, and some of them shall be destroyed by their own.” -2 Baruch 70:1-6
“And the holy land shall have mercy on its own, and it shall protect its inhibitors at that time. This is the vision which you have seen, and this is the interpretation. For I have come to tell you these things because your prayer has been heard with AL ALYUN.”
-2 Baruch 71:1-3
“Then AL ALYUN will reveal those peoples whom He has prepared before, and they shall come and make war with the leaders that shall then be left. And it shall come to pass that whosoever gets safe out of the war shall die in the earthquake, and whosoever gets safe out of the earthquake shall be burned by the fire, and whosoever gets safe out of the fire shall be destroyed by famine. And it shall come to pass that whosoever of the victors and the vanquished gets safe out of and escapes all these things aforesaid will be delivered into the hands of My Servant Messiah. For all the earth shall devour its
inhabitants.” -2 Baruk 70:7-10
“Hear now also regarding the bright lightning which is to come at the Consummation after these black waters: this is the Word. After the signs have come, of which you were told before, when the nations become turbulent, and the Time of My Messiah is Come, He shall both summon all the nations, and some of them He shall spare, and some of them He shall slay. These things therefore shall come upon the nations which are to be spared by Him. Every nation, which knows not Yasharal and has not trodden down the seed of Yaacub, shall indeed be spared. This because some out of every nation shall be subjected to your People. But all those who have ruled over you, or have known you, shall be given up to the sword.” -2 Baruch 72:1-6
“AND it shall come to pass, when He has brought low everything that is in the world, and has sat down in Peace for the Age on the Throne of His Kingdom, that joy shall then be revealed, and rest shall appear. And then healing shall descend in dew, and disease shall withdraw, and anxiety and anguish and lamentation pass from amongst men, and gladness proceed through the whole earth. And no one shall again die untimely, nor shall any adversity suddenly befall. And judgments, and revilings, and contentions, and revenges, and blood, and passions, and envy, and hatred, and whatsoever things are like these shall go into condemnation when they are removed. For it is these very things which have
filled this world with evils, and on account of these the life of man has been greatly troubled. And wild beasts shall come from the forest and minister unto men, and asps and dragons shall come forth from their holes to submit themselves to a little child. And women shall no longer then have pain when they bare, nor shall they suffer torment when they yield the fruit of the womb.” -2 Baruch 73:1-7
“And it shall come to pass in those days that the reapers shall not grow weary,
nor those that build be toil worn; for the works shall of themselves speedily advance together with those who do them in much tranquility. For that time is the Consummation of that which is corruptible, and the beginning of that which is not corruptible. Therefore, those things which were predicted shall belong to it: therefore, it is far away from evils, and near to those things which die not. This is the bright lightning which came after the last dark waters.” -2 Baruch 74:1-4
The Greater Exodus: Sanctifying the Bride
While it is important we understand when the Tribulation Period is expected, it is imperative we understand the intended purpose. Many expect all Believers will be exempt from experiencing the plagues which will come upon the whole earth; however the Scriptures express an alternative reality. In fact, the true intent of the Tribulation is to sanctify the Bride of Messiah, cleansing Her from all Her unrighteousness. Through this process the “chaff will be separated from the wheat,” and the “goats from the sheep,” thus many unbelievers will indeed be destroyed physically, however this is only secondary to
the Father “finishing the good work He started” in His People. This Age of Ya'acub’s Distress is often likened to the First Exodus when the Father took Yasharal out of Egypt and brought them into the Wilderness where He taught them, tested them and cleansed them. Ultimately, all those who failed to trust in Him in the wilderness were not authorized to enter into the Promised Land. In the same way, the Greater Exodus will reveal a similar decree for the Seed of Ya'acub as they are set free from their captivity in the last days:
“1The Word that came to YarmYahu from Yahuah, saying, 2”Thus spoke Yahuah Alahym of Yasharal, saying, ‘Write in a Book for yourself all the Words that I have spoken to you. 3For look, the Days are Coming,’ declares Yahuah, ‘when I shall turn back the captivity of My People Yasharal and Yahudah,’ declares Yahuah, ‘and I shall bring them back to the land that I gave to their fathers, and let them possess it.’ 4And these are the Words Yahuah spoke concerning Yasharal and Yahudah, 5for this is what Yahuah said, ‘We have heard a voice of trembling, of fear, and not of peace. 6‘Ask now, and see if a man is giving birth. Why do I see every man with his hands on his loins like a Woman in labour, and all faces turned pale? 7Oh! For Great is That Day, there is none like it. And it is the ‘Time of Yaacub’s Distress’, but he shall be saved out of it. 8And it shall be in That Day,’ declares Yahuah of Hosts, ‘that I break his yoke from your neck, and tear off your bonds, and foreigners no more enslave them. 9And they shall serve Yahuah their Alahym and Daud (David) their Sovereign, whom I raise up for them. 10And you, do not fear, O Yaacub My servant,’ declares Yahuah, ‘nor be discouraged, O Yasharal. For look, I am saving you from afar, and your Seed from the land of their captivity. And Yaacub shall return, and have rest and be at ease, with no one to trouble him. 11For I am with you,’ declares Yahuah, ‘to save you. Though I make a complete end of all gentiles where I have scattered you, yet I do not make a complete end of you. But I shall Reprove you in Judgement, and by no means leave you unpunished.’
12For thus said Yahuah, ‘Your breach is incurable, your wound is grievous. 13No one pleads your cause, to bind up. There are no healing medicines for you. 14All those loving you have forgotten you, they do not seek you. For I smote you as an enemy smites, with cruel chastisement, because your crookedness is great, your sins have increased. 15Why do you cry about your breach? Your pain is incurable. Because of your many crookednesses, because your sins have increased, I have done this to you. 16However, all those who devour you shall be devoured. And all your adversaries, every one of them, shall go into captivity. And those who exploit you shall be exploited, and all who prey upon you I shall make a prey. 17For I restore health to you and heal you of your wounds,’ declares Yahuah, ‘for they have called you an Outcast saying, “This is Tsayan, no one is seeking her.” 18Thus said Yahuah, ‘See, I turn back the captivity of Yaacub’s tents, and have compassion on his dwelling places. And the City shall be built upon its own mound, and the Palace stand on its right place. 19‘And out of them shall arise thanksgiving and the voice of those who are laughing. And I shall increase them, and they shall not diminish. And I shall esteem them, and they shall not be small. 20And his children shall be as before, and his congregation shall be established before Me. And I shall punish all who oppress them. 21And his Prince shall be from him, and his Ruler shall come from among him. And I shall bring him near, and he shall approach Me, for who is this who pledged his heart to approach Me?’ declares Yahuah. 22And you shall be My People, and I shall be your Alahym.’” 23See, the storm of Yahuah shall go forth in a rage, a whirling storm! It bursts upon the head of the wrong. 24The burning displeasure of Yahuah shall not turn back until He has done and established the purposes of His heart. In the Latter Days you shall understand it.”
-YarmYahu/Jeremiah 30:1-24
“23Also, I Myself lifted My hand in an Oath to those in the wilderness, to scatter them among the gentiles and disperse them throughout the lands, 24because they had not done My right-rulings, and they rejected My laws, and they profaned My Sabbaths, and their eyes were on their fathers’ idols. 25And I also gave them up to laws that were not good, and right-rulings by which they would not live. 26And I defiled them by their own gifts, as they passed all their first-born through the fire, so that I might stun them, so that they know that I am Yahuah. 27Therefore, son of man, speak to the House of Yasharal, and you shall say to them, ‘Thus said the Master Yahuah, “In this your fathers have further reviled Me, by committing trespass against Me. 28When I brought them into the land for which I had lifted My hand in an oath to give them, and they saw all the high hills and all the thick trees, they offered their slaughterings there and provoked Me with their offerings there. And they sent up their sweet fragrance there and poured out their drink offerings there. 29And I said to them, ‘What is this high place to which you go?’ So its name is called High Place to this day.” 30“Therefore say to the house of Yasharal, ‘Thus said the Master Yahuah, “Are you defiling yourselves in the way of your fathers? And do you whore after their abominations? 31For when you lift up your gifts and make your sons pass through the fire, you defile yourselves with all your idols, even to this day. And shall I be inquired of by you, O house of Yasharal? As I live,” declares the Master Yahuah, “I am not being inquired of by you. 32And what comes up in your spirit shall never be, when you say, ‘Let us be like the gentiles, like the tribes in other lands, serving wood and stone.’ 33As I live,” declares the Master Yahuah, “do not I, with a mighty hand, with an outstretched arm, and with wrath poured out, reign over you? 34And I shall bring you out from the peoples and gather you out of the lands where you are scattered, with a mighty hand, and with an outstretched arm, and with Wrath poured out. 35And I shall bring you into the wilderness of the peoples, and shall enter into Judgement with you face to face there. 36As I entered into Judgment with your fathers in the wilderness of the land of Egypt, so I shall enter into judgment with you,” declares the Master Yahuah. 37And I shall make you pass under the rod, and shall bring you into the Bond of the Covenant, 38and purge the rebels from among you, and those who transgress against Me. From the land where they sojourn I bring them out, but they shall not come into the Land of Yasharal. And you shall know that I am Yahuah.”
-Yachazqal/Ezekiel 20:23-38
“18And to the Messenger of the Assembly in Thyatira write, ‘This says the Son of Alahym, Who has eyes like a flame of fire, and His feet like burnished brass: 19I know your works, and love, and service, and belief, and your endurance. And as for your works, the last are more than the first. 20But I hold against you that you allow that woman Izebel, who calls herself a prophetess, to teach and lead My Servants astray to commit whoring and to eat food offered to idols. 21And I gave her time to repent of her whoring, and she did not repent. 22See, I am throwing her into a sickbed, and those who commit adultery with her into Great Tribulation, unless they repent of their works. 23And I shall slay her children with death. And all the Assemblies shall know that I Am the One searching the kidneys and hearts. And I shall give to each one of you according to your works. 24And to you I say, and to the rest in Thyatira, as many as do not possess this Teaching, and who have not known the depths of Satan, as they call them, I am not putting on you another burden. 25But hold fast what you have until I come. 26And he who overcomes, and guards My Works until the End, to him I shall give Authority over the nations, 27and He shall Shepherd them with a rod of iron, as the potter’s vessels shall be broken to pieces, as I also have received from My Father. 28And I shall give him the Morning Star.”

Eagle Takes over the world: no one speaks against him
Eagles rises up on his talons
Eagle’s Body tells his Wings to not reign all at once and to let the Heads reign at the End (great struggles shall arise, and it shall be in danger of falling; but it shall not fall then, and regains its former power)
One Right Wing arises and reigns over the earth until it disappears
The next Wing arises and reigns in its place for a long time until it too disappears
The Eagle Body says to the Wing that no one will rule as long as the last one did again
Third Wing arises up and reigns like the other two until it disappears
Fourth, Fifth, Sixth, Seventh and Eighth, Ninth, Tenth, Eleventh and Twelfth Wings arise one after another (some reigning for a very short time, or some rising up and not ruling at all)
The 12 Wings and the 2 of the 8 Little Wings disappear
The Three Heads remain on the Eagle’s Body with the 6 out of the 8 “contrary feathers”
2 Wings separate from the 6 staying under the Right Head (The "Two Witnesses": Yasha/Isa. 48:20, 2 Corin. 6:17, Rev. 18:4, Yarm./Jer. 51:6 & 45)
4 Wings remain in their place and desire to rule
1 of the 4 rises up to rule then suddenly disappears
The 2nd of the 4 rises up but disappears even faster than the 1st
The 2 of the 4 remaining plan to reign together
The Middle Head wakes up while they’re planning and devours them
The Middle Head gains control over the whole world and dominates it with more power and oppression than any before until it suddenly disappears leaving Two Remaining Heads
Disappears because this king dies in his bed, but in agonies
The Right Head [King of the North & the Anti-Messiah] rises up and devours the Left Head (killed by the sword of the Right Head)
Then a Lion (the Messiah) comes out and asks the Eagle if he is not one of the 4 Beasts which the Most High left to rule the earth so “The End” of the world might come through him. The Lion then says it is the 4th Beast of DanyAl/Daniel that has come, which conquered all the previous Beasts that have came before it, which controlled the world with terror, oppression, lies, and false judgment by afflicting the righteous, hating those who tell the truth, and that loved liars; which destroyed the dwellings those who brought forth fruit, and destroyed the walls of those who did not attack it, so the Most High recognized its pride and decides to end his reign with its “terrifying wings, evil little wings, malicious heads, evil talons, and entire worthless body, so that the whole earth, freed from its violence, may be refreshed and relieved, and may hope for the judgment and mercy of Alahym”.
The Right Head then disappears (killed by the sword also)
The 2 Little Wings go to rule for a very short time "in trouble" until they disappear (they are those whom the Most High kept for the Eagle's end; this was the reign which was “brief and Full of Trouble”); i.e. the "Great Multitude/Two Witnesses"
Then the whole Eagle’s body is burned and the whole earth becomes afraid
Revelation 13 Beasts
Dragon (a Serpent): Pagan Rome/Roman Papacy
Worshipped/rules over all the nations and loved by the whole world
Throne is in the “Vatican” meaning “Divine/Prophetic Serpent” from Latin
The Vatican has serpent symbolism in the throne room
Has made war against the saints more than anyone
1st Beast (like a leopard, feet like a bear, mouth like a lion with 7 heads and 10 Horns with 10 Crowns): The Anti-Messiah who rises out of the Statue of Danyal/Daniel 2, The Little Horn of the 4th Beast of Danyal 7, the King of the North in Danyal 11, and the Eagle in 4 Ezra 11-12 (as the last remaining “Right Head”)
given authority from the "Dragon"
1 of his wounded heads that heals
given power to make war and given a mouth to speak great Blasphemies
power to make war against the saints and the whole world
given power for 42 months (3.5 years/"time, times and half a time")
the world worshipped the dragon (Pagan Rome) who gave authority to the 1st Beast

enforces the Mark of the 1st Beast
The Woman riding the 1st Beast: “Whore of Babylon” which is "Jerusalem"
The False Prophet: possibly Pope Francis (due to him going against the normal Catholic doctrine and trying to unite all world religions under “Roman Catholicism” which translates to Universal Babylon) through the "Ecumenical Movement"
*The characters described in Revelation 13 are best understood when compared to the Story of Danyal/Daniel 3 which explains how Nebuchadnezzar used his Guards to enforce those under his dominion to bow down to a Statue made in the likeness of himself to symbolize submission and worship of Nebuchadnezzar:
1st Beast: Nebuchadnezzar
2nd Beast: Nebuchadnezzar's Guards who brought the 3 Hebrews to be thrown into the Fire
Image of the 1st Beast: Statue of Nebuchadnezzar
The Birth Pains
The Pregnancy Birth Pains (“Braxton-Hicks” contractions) begin (Matt. 24:4-8):

The Gospel is proclaimed in all the world as a witness to the Gentiles [Rev. 12 Signs]
and then the end shall come (i.e. the Tribulation begins)
A Temple in Jerusalem is functioning with approval of the Jews and Levitical Priesthood including a daily sacrifice (Matt. 24:15-16, Eze. 8-10)
The Great Seal of Yahuah: 144k are Sealed and Set Apart sent into the Wilderness to their “Place of Safety” for 3.5 years (Rev. 14:1, Rev. 7:1-4, Ezekiel 9:4, Rev. 12:6 & 14)
They receive a Seal of the Father and Son’s true names on their foreheads (Rev. 14:1)
They are “pure and blameless”, which is perfected in faith and no longer sin (Rev. 14:4-5)
They are the Sect of Natsarym - they have the Testimony of Messiah and keep the commands of Alahym (Acts 24:5, Rev. 12:17, Rev. 14:12)
They have perfect doctrine and believe no false teachings (Rev. 14:4)
They cry over the abominations and sacrifices done by Yasharal (Eze. 8-10)
They are supernaturally protected and nourished during the Tribulation Period and do not experience the Tribulation plagues as the rest of the world and Body of Messiah (Rev. 14:3, Rev. 12:13-17)

Requires a temple to be built in Yarushalam/"Jerusalem" (Eze. 8-10)
Requires a priesthood to officiate the daily offering
The “Two Witnesses” (Aphrayam and Yahudah) go out dressed in Sackcloth (in mourning and repentance) to rebuke the Beast System for 1260 days/3.5 Years (Rev. 11:3), are given power to call fire from heaven to destroy their enemies, to turn the water to blood, and to smite earth with plagues: The Dwelling Place is The Spiritual Temple = New Yarushalam (Rev. 21:22) New Yarushalam = Yasharal (Rev. 21:2-12) Yasharal = The Two Houses = Yahudah and Aphraym (Ezekiel 37:21) The Two Houses = The Two Sticks (Ezekiel 37:16) The Two Sticks = The Two Branches = The Two Olive Trees (ZacharYah 4:12) The Two Olive Trees = The Two Golden Lampstands (Revelation 11:4) The Two Golden Lampstands = The Two Witnesses (Revelation 11:3-4) Therefore: The Two Witnesses = Yasharal “And they overcame him by the Blood of the Lamb, and because of the Word of their Witness, and they did not love their lives to the death.” -Revelation 12:11

A 1/3 of the day becomes dark like night

smoke comes up to darken the sun and air
out of the pit comes “locusts prepared for battle”
heads have crowns like gold

The End of the "First Part/Half" of the 7 Year Tribulation Period of 3.5 Years/42 Months/1260 days (Rev. 11:2-3)
Anti-Messiah "Breaks" the 7 year Covenant with the many 3.5 years/1260 days/42 months into the Tribulation

He shows regard for those who forsake the Set Apart Covenant
He conquers the entire earth (including the Land of Yasharal/"Israel" and Yarushalam/"Jerusalem"), all except for the land of Edom, Moab and Ammon/Mountains of Seir (Dan. 11:35-45)
Those in Yarushalam/"Jerusalem" are told to “flee to the Mountains [of Seir/Petra]” (Matt. 24:15-21, Mark 13:14-19); could be when many of the 144k leave their places in the Wilderness and head to Petra also
Destruction begins at the Third Temple in Yarushalam/"Jerusalem" (Rev. 11:2-3, Dan. 9:24-27) firstly upon the Jewish and Levite Elders, Rabbis and Priests and all found there who do not have the “Seal of Yahuah and Yahusha” on their foreheads including the elderly, women and children (Rom. 2:9, Ezekiel 9:6) of the Righteous “Great Multitude” and Unrighteous “Great Multitude”
There the Two Witnesses complete their Witness, and the Beast comes up out of the Pit and kills them, then their dead bodies lie in the streets of Yarushalem/"Jerusalem" for "3.5 days" (Rev. 11:1-12) symbolizing 3.5 Years (Rev. 15:8, 4 Ezra 7:29-31); End of the Second Woe with the Death of the Two Witnesses

Sixth Bowl (Rev. 16:12-15) –
Euphrates river is dried up to prepare the way of the Kings from the east (stage for the Battle of Armageddon is set)
Unclean Demonic Spirits like frogs come out of the mouth of the Dragon, 1st Beast and False Prophet to do signs and wonders to gather the Kings of the world to the Battle of Armageddon (2 Bar. 27:9)
Seventh Bowl (Rev. 16:17-21) –
Voice from a Messenger pours out his bowl in the air and a voice from the Temple of Heaven cries out “It is Finished!”
Noises, thunders and lightings
Greatest earthquake on earth ever happens

Every island and mountain go away (under water?)

He separates the “goats from the sheep”
The Righteous stand on His Right Hand and the Unrighteous stand on His Left Hand
The First Resurrection
The Two Witnesses and the rest of the dead who were Righteous are resurrected in their corrupted bodies as they appeared upon their first death (2 Baruch 50:1-4, 4 Ezra 7:31-32, 2 Baruch 30:1-3) to appear before the Unrighteous as evidence of the Consummation of Times/End of the Age
They are then transformed into their incorruptible bodies in the twinkling of an eye (2 Baruch 51:1, 1 Enoch 50:1 EC)

"1Now, brothers, as to the Times and the Seasons, you do not need to be Written to.
2For you yourselves know very well that the Day of Yahuah comes as a thief in the night.
3For when they say, “Peace and safety!” then suddenly destruction comes upon them,
as labour pains upon a pregnant woman, and they shall not escape.
4But you, brothers, are not in darkness, so that this Day should overtake you as a thief.
5For you are all Sons of Light and Sons of the Day. We are not of the night nor of darkness.
6So, then, we should not sleep, as others do, but we should Watch and be sober.
7For those who sleep, sleep at night, and those who get drunk are drunk at night.
8But we who are of the day should be sober, putting on the breastplate of Belief and Love, and as a helmet the expectation of deliverance. 9Because Alahym did not appoint us to Wrath, but to obtain Deliverance through our Master Yahusha Messiah, 10Who died for us,
so that we, whether awake or asleep, should Live together with Him. 11Therefore encourage one another, and build up one another, as indeed you do. 12But brothers, we beg you to know those who labour among you, and are over you in the Master and admonish you, 13and to hold them in the highest regard in love because of their Work.
Be at peace among yourselves!"
-1 Thessalonians 5:1-11
