This night at a time of wakefulness, also by the mercy of God the Messiah, I was enabled to learn that very many of those bound in the pit [see 228, 244] are now being borne upward by God the Messiah, that is, from the pit (which is below the last Heaven), otherwise called the place of the lower ones. The ascent lasted for quite a long time, which leads to the conclusion that there were very many. And that it was the believers who were being raised up, was also shown - by spirits of gold, small ones in effigy. From this one may conclude that the last time is now at hand. Therefore, let those on earth be watchful! 1747, the 20th day of November (old calendar).
