“black and beautiful,” and she is called “the fairest among women.”
Many think this is a description of the Christian church! But Shulamite is seen dancing in the nude. Many Christians have long believed that Tabernacles was of some great, but yet not understood, symbolic significance for the “end-time” which the signs show is now virtually upon us. That its timing is to be found in a Chinese prophecy makes sense when we remember that it was only “the wise men from the East” who knew the time and place of Jesus’ birth, the significance of the Bible prophecies was not understood by the Jews. China is due east of Israel!
My translation for the 1990 prophecy says, “The atomic-end must be, but not yet/For righteousness I give a river and mountain/A woman is beside the water facing the sun, personally visiting/ Dangerous transformation into era of peace and comfort/Observe public festival.” “Shelter and assist/Don’t be mean-spirited, be statesmen/All will end if God’s vessel is wanting - not used.”
In 1988 it would appear that China gets a new leader (possibly named “Wu”). And there will perhaps be a peace-summit visit by the President. Closer relations are likely to develop between Taiwan and the Mainland government. But I haven’t personally translated this poem/prophecy yet. The Chinese New Year does not begin until Feb. 14, however.
Happy Year of the Dragon to Rappahannock County on that date.
