73. 2. From the Prophets

The day of Jehovah of Hosts shall be upon everyone that is proud and haughty. In that day shall a man cast away his idols; when He arises to terrify the earth (Isaiah 2:12-21). Concerning the Last Judgment.

Jehovah of Hosts shall be exalted in judgment, and God that is holy shall be sanctified in justice (Isaiah 5:16-17). In the first part desolation is treated of (verses 3-15), afterwards the curse upon the evil (verses 18-30).

When thou shalt be visited of Jehovah God with thunder and with earthquake, and a great voice, with storm and tempest, and the flame of devouring fire (Isaiah 29:6).

It is called a day of vengeance (Isaiah 61:2).

Of the Lord's battle with the hells and of their subjugation, and thus of the redemption of the faithful (Isaiah 63:1-14).

As an east wind will I scatter them; I will regard them from the back and not from the face in the day of their calamity (Jeremiah 18:17).

They have been driven before thee; in the time of thine anger deal with them (Jeremiah 18:23).

Concerning the day of judgment, which is called the day of revenge, of vengeance, of ruin, of anger. See many places in the section on Redemption.

Romans 2:5-10

5 But according to your hardness and unrepentant heart you are treasuring up for yourself wrath in the day of wrath, revelation, and of the righteous judgment of God;

6 who "will pay back to everyone according to their works:"

7 to those who by patience in well-doing seek for glory, honor, and incorruptibility, eternal life;

8 but to those who are self-seeking, and don't obey the truth, but obey unrighteousness, will be wrath and indignation,

9 oppression and anguish, on every soul of man who works evil, to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.

10 But glory, honor, and peace go to every man who works good, to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.
