    Ps.50:2-5 "Zion"

    "Out of Zion, the perfection of beauty, God hath shined. Our God shall come, and shall not keep silence: A fire shall devour before him, and it shall be very tempestuous round about him. He shall call to the heavens from above, And to the earth, that he may judge his people."

    Here we have what restores order so all seven days in the eternal covenant are restored. This restoration has God in all, where God and His creation, both in heaven and on earth are in repose. The Psalm sets the question, "If the foundations be destroyed, what can the righteous do?"(Ps.11:3)

(Ph.2:9-11) The 'little ones' 12 in number merely represent the cloud of witnesses that forsook the glory of the world for his name's sake. The 12 signifies the Gospel. The fulness of God was in Christ by which the volume of every little one signified that they are priests and kings 'forever'. (Re.1:6) '
