272. About a certain one let down into the lower place, who was finally raised up

A certain one who had been let down into the lower place was finally being raised up, but on the way he labored very hard and struggled with the greatest exertion and labor to ascend, but for a long time it was in vain. From this, I was able to infer that an ascent and raising up comes through God the Messiah, Who Alone releases the miserable from the pit, and elevates and bears them into the heavens.

I spoke with this person while he was laboring, and after he was allowed to emerge from the place of the lower ones; so the truth of this has been witnessed to by actual experience. 1747, the 27th or 28th of November.
