The Testaments of the XII Patriarchs 33 — Levi Chapter 17

The Testaments of the XII Patriarchs · Restored Names Edition · first paragraph

¹And whereas ye have heard concerning the seventy weeks, hear also concerning the priesthood.

²For in each jubilee there shall be a priesthood. And in the first jubilee, the first who is anointed to the priesthood shall be great, and shall speak to Elohim (God) as to a father. And his priesthood shall be perfect with Yahuah (Lord), [and in the day of his gladness shall he arise for the salvation of the world].

³In the second jubilee, he that is anointed shall be conceived in the sorrow of beloved ones; and his priesthood shall be honoured and shall be glorified by all.

⁴And the third priest shall be taken hold of by sorrow.

⁵And the fourth shall be in pain, because unrighteousness shall gather itself against him exceedingly, and all Yashar'el (Israel) shall hate each one his neighbour.
