JUSTICE.

ISRAELS' PROPHECY OF JUSTICE.

Behold, I will send my messenger, and he shall prepare the way before me: and the Lord, whom ye seek, shall suddenly come to his temple, even the messenger of the covenant, whom ye delight in: behold, he shall come, saith the Lord of hosts.

But who may abide the day of his coming? and who shall stand when he appeareth? for he is like a refiner's fire, and like fullers' soap:

And he shall sit as a refiner and purifier of silver: and he shall purify the sons of Levi, * and purge them as gold and silver, that they may offer unto the Lord an offering in justice. 

Then shall the offerings of Judah and Jerusalem be pleasant unto the Lord, as in the days of old, and as in ancient years.

And I will come near to you to judgement; . . . .

But unto you that fear my name shall the Sun of Justice t arise with healing in his wings;-MALACHI iii, 1-5, iv, 2.
