18. That in the last times the same mountain
should be manifested, and upon it the Gentiles should come, and on it
all the righteous should go up.
In Isaiah: “In the last times the
mountain of the Lord shall be revealed, and the house of God upon the
tops of the mountains; and it shall be exalted above the hills, and all
nations shall come upon it, and many shall walk and say, Come, and let
us go up into the mountain of the Lord, and into the house of the God
of Jacob; and He will tell us His way, and we will walk in it.
For from Sion shall proceed the law, and the word of the Lord from
Jerusalem; and He shall judge among the nations, and shall rebuke much
people; and they shall beat their swords into ploughshares, and their
spears into pruning-hooks, and they shall no more learn to
fight.”

Also in
the twenty-third Psalm: “Who shall ascend into the hill of
the Lord, or who shall stand in His holy place? He that is
innocent in his hands, and of a clean heart; who hath not received his
life in vanity, and hath not sworn craftily to his neighbour. He
shall receive the blessing from the Lord, and mercy
4050
from the God that saveth him. This
is the generation of those who seek Him, that seek the face of the God
of Jacob.”
