The Testament of Benjamin Concerning a Pure Mind

Unknown

Section 9

About this work

Author: Unknown

9. Now I suppose, from the words of

‹ Section 8 Section 10 ›

the

righteous

Enoch

,

that

there

will

be

also

evil

-

doings

among

you

:

for

ye

will

commit

fornication

with

the

fornication

of

Sodom

,

and

shall

perish

all

save

a

few

,

and

will

multiply

inordinate

lusts

with

women

;

and

the

kingdom

of

the

Lord

shall

not

be

among

you

,

for

forthwith

He

will

take

it

away

.

Nevertheless

the

temple

of

God

shall

be

built

in

your

portion

,

and

shall

be

glorious

among

you

.

For

He

shall

take

it

,

and

the

twelve

tribes

shall

be

gathered

together

there

,

and

all

the

Gentiles

,

until

the

Most

High

shall

send

forth

His

salvation

in

the

visitation

of

His

only

-

begotten

one

.

And

He

shall

enter

into

the

front

of

the

temple

,

and

there

shall

the

Lord

be

treated

with

outrage

,

and

He

shall

be

lifted

up

upon

a

tree

.

And

the

veil

of

the

temple

shall

be

rent

,

and

the

Spirit

of

God

shall

descend

upon

the

Gentiles

as

fire

poured

forth

.

And

He

shall

arise

from

the

grave

,

and

shall

ascend

from

earth

into

heaven

:

and

I

know

how

lowly

He

shall

be

upon

the

earth

,

and

how

glorious

in

the

heaven

.

This would seem to be the meaning of πρῶτος ναός.
