Ezekiel chapter eight is one of the easiest prophetic chapters in the Scriptures. The chapter has a distinct starting point.

Hizqiyo kitobining sakkizinchi bobi Muqaddas Bitiklardagi eng oson tushuniladigan payg‘ambarlik boblaridan biridir. Bu bobning aniq bir boshlanish nuqtasi bor.

And it came to pass in the sixth year, in the sixth month, in the fifth day of the month, as I sat in mine house, and the elders of Judah sat before me, that the hand of the Lord God fell there upon me. Ezekiel 8:1.

Va oltinchi yilda, oltinchi oyda, oyning beshinchi kunida, men o‘z uyimda o‘tirganimda va Yahudoning oqsoqollari oldimda o‘tirganlarida, o‘sha yerda Rabbiy Xudoning qo‘li mening ustimga tushdi. Hizqiyol 8:1.

The vision has a distinct ending in chapter eleven.

Vahiy o‘n birinchi bobda aniq bir yakunga ega.

Afterwards the spirit took me up, and brought me in a vision by the Spirit of God into Chaldea, to them of the captivity. So the vision that I had seen went up from me. Then I spake unto them of the captivity all the things that the Lord had showed me. Ezekiel 11:24, 25.

Shundan keyin Ruh meni ko‘tardi va Xudoning Ruhi orqali vahiyda Xaldeyaga, asirlikdagilar huzuriga olib bordi. So‘ng men ko‘rgan vahiy mendan ko‘tarilib ketdi. Keyin men asirlikdagilarga Egamiz menga ko‘rsatgan hamma narsani aytib berdim. Hizqiyol 11:24, 25.

The vision of chapter eight begins on the fifth day, of the sixth month of the sixth year, just a day before the date aligns with “666,” and sure enough the vision is about the Sunday law, which is the mark of the beast, whose number is the number of the “man of sin,” and also the number of the eighth kingdom that is of the seven. Those that get the victory over the number “666,” receive the seal of God, and in chapter nine, the seal of God is being placed upon God’s faithful people of the last days.

Sakkizinchi bobning vahiyi oltinchi yilning oltinchi oyining beshinchi kunida boshlanadi; bu sana “666” bilan mos kelishidan atigi bir kun oldin bo‘lib, darhaqiqat, vahiy yakshanba qonuni haqida bo‘lib, u yirtqichning tamg‘asidir; uning soni “gunoh odami”ning soni, shuningdek yettitadan bo‘lgan sakkizinchi shohlikning ham sonidir. “666” soni ustidan g‘alaba qozonganlar Xudoning muhrini qabul qiladilar, va to‘qqizinchi bobda Xudoning muhri oxirgi kunlardagi Xudoning sodiq xalqiga bosilmoqda.

And I saw another sign in heaven, great and marvellous, seven angels having the seven last plagues; for in them is filled up the wrath of God. And I saw as it were a sea of glass mingled with fire: and them that had gotten the victory over the beast, and over his image, and over his mark, and over the number of his name, stand on the sea of glass, having the harps of God. And they sing the song of Moses the servant of God, and the song of the Lamb, saying, Great and marvellous are thy works, Lord God Almighty; just and true are thy ways, thou King of saints. Revelation 15:1–3.

Va men osmonda yana bir alomatni ko‘rdim: buyuk va ajoyib alomatni — yetti farishta yetti oxirgi baloga ega edi; chunki ularda Xudoning g‘azabi to‘la nihoyasiga yetadi. Va men go‘yo olov bilan aralashgan shishadek dengizni ko‘rdim; va hayvon ustidan, uning surati ustidan, uning belgisi ustidan hamda uning ismining soni ustidan g‘alaba qozonganlar shisha dengiz ustida turib, Xudoning arfalariga ega edilar. Va ular Xudoning quli Musoning qo‘shig‘ini va Qo‘zining qo‘shig‘ini kuylab, shunday deydilar: Sening ishlaring buyuk va ajoyibdir, ey Qodir Rabbiy Xudo; yo‘llaring adolatli va haqdir, ey azizlarning Shohi. Vahiy 15:1–3.

Just before the close of probation (for the seven angels with the seven last plagues are going to pour out God’s wrath in the next chapter of Revelation), God’s last day people are identified. They have obtained the victory over four things. The word translated as victory means to conquer. The faithful have conquered the beast, the image of the beast, the mark of the beast and the number of his name. The victory includes the fact that they understand what the four symbols represent. It is only a very small percentage of people that know what those four prophetic symbols actually represent.

Sinov muddati yakunlanishidan sal oldin (chunki Vahiy kitobining keyingi bobida yetti so‘nggi baloga ega bo‘lgan yetti farishta Xudoning g‘azabini to‘kib yuboradilar), Xudoning oxirgi kunlardagi xalqi aniqlab ko‘rsatiladi. Ular to‘rtta narsa ustidan g‘alabaga erishganlar. G‘alaba deb tarjima qilingan so‘z zabt etmoq, yengmoq ma’nosini anglatadi. Sodiqlar mahluq ustidan, mahluqning surati ustidan, mahluqning tamg‘asi ustidan va uning ismining soni ustidan g‘alaba qozonganlar. Bu g‘alaba ular ana shu to‘rtta ramz nimani ifodalashini tushunishlarini ham o‘z ichiga oladi. Odamlarning juda ozgina foizigina bu to‘rtta bashoriy ramz aslida nimani anglatishini biladi.

The world used to know the papacy was the whore of Babylon in chapter seventeen, but as God’s Word identified, the understanding of the whore of Tyre who commits fornication with the kings of the earth is forgotten during the history of the United States. To get victory over the beast means to rightly divide the word of truth in ascertaining that the beast of Bible prophecy is the papacy. In the very next chapter, the dragon, the beast and the false prophet lead the world to Armageddon, and God’s faithful of the last days must know who those three powers are.

Dunyo ilgari o‘n yettinchi bobdagi papalik Bobilning fohishasi ekanini bilar edi, biroq Xudoning Kalomi aniqlab berganidek, yer yuzining shohlari bilan zino qiluvchi Tir fohishasi haqidagi tushuncha Qo‘shma Shtatlar tarixi davomida unutilgan. Mahluq ustidan g‘alaba qozonish degani, Muqaddas Kitob bashoratidagi mahluq papalik ekanini aniqlashda haqiqat kalomini to‘g‘ri taqsim etishdir. Aynan keyingi bobda ajdarho, mahluq va soxta payg‘ambar dunyoni Armageddonga yetaklaydi, va oxirgi kunlardagi Xudoning sodiqlari bu uch qudrat kim ekanini bilishlari shart.

And the sixth angel poured out his vial upon the great river Euphrates; and the water thereof was dried up, that the way of the kings of the east might be prepared. And I saw three unclean spirits like frogs come out of the mouth of the dragon, and out of the mouth of the beast, and out of the mouth of the false prophet. For they are the spirits of devils, working miracles, which go forth unto the kings of the earth and of the whole world, to gather them to the battle of that great day of God Almighty. Behold, I come as a thief. Blessed is he that watcheth, and keepeth his garments, lest he walk naked, and they see his shame. And he gathered them together into a place called in the Hebrew tongue Armageddon. Revelation 16:12–16.

Oltinchi farishta o‘z kosasini buyuk Furot daryosi ustiga to‘kdi; va uning suvi quritildi, toki sharq podshohlarining yo‘li tayyorlansin. Va men ajdahoning og‘zidan, hayvonning og‘zidan va soxta payg‘ambarning og‘zidan qurbaqalarga o‘xshash uch nopok ruh chiqayotganini ko‘rdim. Chunki ular mo‘jizalar ko‘rsatuvchi jinlar ruhlaridir; ular Qodir Xudoning o‘sha buyuk kunidagi jangga to‘plash uchun yer yuzining va butun dunyoning podshohlari oldiga chiqadilar. Mana, Men o‘g‘ri kabi kelaman. Yalang‘och yurib, o‘z uyatini ko‘rmasliklari uchun kiyimlarini saqlab, hushyor turgan kishi baxtlidir. Va u ularni ibroniy tilida Armageddon deb ataladigan joyga to‘pladi. Vahiy 16:12–16.

The victory over the beast is the victory of understanding correctly who the beast is. The passage just cited pronounces a blessing upon those that watch and keep their garments, yet by the sixth plague, probation has fully closed for all men. When Michael stands up, human probation closes and then the seven last plagues are poured out. There is no way to change garments after the close of probation, yet there is a warning associated with the sixth plague. That warning has to do with having the correct understanding of the beast before probation closes, and if you do not have that understanding, you will lose the garment of Christ’s righteousness before the close of probation.

Hayvon ustidan qozonilgan g‘alaba — hayvonning kim ekanini to‘g‘ri anglashdagi g‘alabadir. Hozirgina keltirilgan parcha hushyor bo‘lib, o‘z kiyimlarini saqlaydiganlar ustiga baraka e’lon qiladi, holbuki oltinchi balo kelgunga qadar sinov muddati barcha insonlar uchun butunlay yopilgan bo‘ladi. Mixoil o‘rnidan turganida, insoniyat uchun sinov muddati tugaydi, so‘ng esa yetti oxirgi balo yog‘diriladi. Sinov muddati yopilgandan keyin kiyimlarni almashtirishning hech qanday yo‘li yo‘q, ammo oltinchi balo bilan bog‘liq bir ogohlantirish bor. Bu ogohlantirish sinov muddati yopilishidan oldin hayvon haqidagi to‘g‘ri tushunchaga ega bo‘lish bilan bog‘liqdir, va agar sizda bu tushuncha bo‘lmasa, sinov muddati tugashidan oldin Masihning solihligi kiyimini yo‘qotasiz.

“Those who become confused in their understanding of the word, who fail to see the meaning of antichrist, will surely place themselves on the side of antichrist. There is no time now for us to assimilate with the world. Daniel is standing in his lot and in his place. The prophecies of Daniel and of John are to be understood. They interpret each other. They give to the world truths which everyone should understand. These prophecies are to be witness in the world. By their fulfillment in these last days, they will explain themselves.Kress Collection, 105.

“So‘z haqidagi tushunchasida adashib qoladiganlar, maxdiga qarshining ma’nosini anglay olmaydiganlar, shubhasiz, o‘zlarini maxdiga qarshining tomoniga qo‘yadilar. Endi biz uchun dunyo bilan uyg‘unlashib ketish vaqti emas. Doniyor o‘z ulushi va o‘z o‘rnida turibdi. Doniyorning ham, Yuhannoning ham bashoratlari tushunilishi kerak. Ular bir-birini sharhlaydi. Ular dunyoga har bir kishi tushunishi lozim bo‘lgan haqiqatlarni beradi. Bu bashoratlar dunyoda guvohlik bo‘lishi kerak. So‘nggi kunlarda ularning amalga oshishi orqali ular o‘zlarini o‘zlari izohlab beradi.” Kress Collection, 105.

If a person does not understand that the antichrist is the papacy, they will end up on the side of the papacy, or as John wrote, they will walk naked and manifest their shame. To get the victory over the beast is to understand that the beast is the papal power, and all that is revealed of the papal power. Those who get the victory and understand that the papacy is the man of sin, will need to understand that the image of the papacy represents the principle of the combination of church and state, with the church in control of the relationship.

Agar bir kishi masihga qarshi qudrat papalik ekanini tushunmasa, u oxir-oqibat papalik tomonida bo‘lib qoladi, yoki Yuhanno yozganidek, u yalang‘och yurib, o‘z sharmandaligini namoyon qiladi. Mahluq ustidan g‘alaba qozonish — mahluq papalik hokimiyati ekanini va papalik hokimiyati haqida ochib berilgan barcha narsani tushunish demakdir. G‘alabaga erishib, papalik gunoh odami ekanini tushunganlar, papalikning surati jamoat va davlatning birlashuvi tamoyilini, bunda esa munosabat ustidan nazorat jamoat qo‘lida bo‘lishini ifodalashini tushunishlari kerak bo‘ladi.

In the book of Daniel, the structure of the beast, which is the combination of church and state, is represented as the transgression of desolation. Transgression is sin, and the sin that forms the papal beast is when kings surrender their power unto the papal authority. In doing this they commit spiritual fornication, which is Daniel’s transgression of desolation, and John’s image to the beast.

Doniyor kitobida jamoat va davlatning birikmasidan iborat bo‘lgan maxluqning tuzilishi vayronagarchilikning gunohi sifatida tasvirlanadi. Gunoh — bu isyondir, va papalik maxluqini shakllantiradigan gunoh shundaki, shohlar o‘z hokimiyatlarini papalik hokimiyatiga topshiradilar. Shunday qilish bilan ular ruhiy zino qiladilar; bu esa Doniyorning vayronagarchilik gunohi va Yuhannoning maxluqqa bo‘lgan surati-dir.

To get victory over the papal image is to understand through God’s Word that the United States first forms this relationship, and ratifies it at the soon-coming Sunday law, and then forces the entire world to accept the same relationship.

Papalik timsoli ustidan g‘alaba qozonish — Xudoning Kalomi orqali shuni anglashdirki, Qo‘shma Shtatlar avvalo bu munosabatni o‘rnatadi, yaqin orada keladigan yakshanba qonunida uni ratifikatsiya qiladi, so‘ng esa butun dunyoni ayni shu munosabatni qabul qilishga majbur etadi.

The church and state relationship that will be forced upon the earth by the United States consists of the one-world government (the United Nations), coming into an alliance with the papacy as the controlling power in the arrangements. Getting the victory over the image of the beast, is to understand by God’s prophetic Word that the image of the beast represents these very things.

Qo‘shma Shtatlar tomonidan yer yuziga majburan joriy etiladigan cherkov va davlat munosabati, tartibotlar ustidan nazorat qiluvchi hokimiyat sifatida papalik bilan ittifoqqa kirayotgan yagona jahon hukumatidan (Birlashgan Millatlar Tashkiloti) iboratdir. Hayvonning suratining ustidan g‘alaba qozonish — Xudoning bashoratli Kalomi orqali hayvonning surati aynan mana shu narsalarni ifodalashini tushunishdir.

Getting the victory over the beast and the image of the beast includes getting the understanding of the beast’s (the papacy’s) mark of authority.

Yirtqich va yirtqichning surati ustidan g‘alabaga erishish, yirtqichning (papalikning) hokimiyat belgisi haqidagi tushunchaga ega bo‘lishni ham o‘z ichiga oladi.

The mark of the beast is the forced observance of Sunday as God’s Sabbath. To get victory over the mark requires understanding that Sunday worship is the worship of the sun, and that it is nothing less than pagan Baal worship. The victory includes the truth that no one receives the mark of the beast until it is forced upon men.

Hayvonning tamg‘asi — yakshanbani Xudoning Shabbati sifatida majburan tutishga majbur etilishidir. Bu tamg‘a ustidan g‘alaba qozonish uchun yakshanba ibodati quyoshga sig‘inish ekanini va bu butparast Baalga sig‘inishdan boshqa narsa emasligini anglash talab etiladi. Bu g‘alaba shuningdek, hayvonning tamg‘asi odamlarga majburan yuklatilmaguncha hech kim uni qabul qilmasligi haqidagi haqiqatni ham o‘z ichiga oladi.

“But Christians of past generations observed the Sunday, supposing that in so doing they were keeping the Bible Sabbath; and there are now true Christians in every church, not excepting the Roman Catholic communion, who honestly believe that Sunday is the Sabbath of divine appointment. God accepts their sincerity of purpose and their integrity before Him. But when Sunday observance shall be enforced by law, and the world shall be enlightened concerning the obligation of the true Sabbath, then whoever shall transgress the command of God, to obey a precept which has no higher authority than that of Rome, will thereby honor popery above God. He is paying homage to Rome and to the power which enforces the institution ordained by Rome. He is worshiping the beast and his image. As men then reject the institution which God has declared to be the sign of His authority, and honor in its stead that which Rome has chosen as the token of her supremacy, they will thereby accept the sign of allegiance to Rome—‘the mark of the beast.’ And it is not until the issue is thus plainly set before the people, and they are brought to choose between the commandments of God and the commandments of men, that those who continue in transgression will receive ‘the mark of the beast.’” The Great Controversy, 449.

“Ammo o‘tgan avlodlarning masihiylari yakshanbaga rioya qilganlar, buni qilish orqali ular Muqaddas Kitobdagi Shabbatni tutayotganmiz, deb o‘ylaganlar; va hozir ham har bir jamoatda, Rim-katolik jamoatini ham istisno qilmagan holda, yakshanba ilohiy tayinlangan Shabbatdir, deb sidqidildan ishonadigan haqiqiy masihiylar bor. Xudo ularning niyatdagi samimiyatini va Uning huzuridagi vijdonliligini qabul qiladi. Ammo yakshanbaga rioya qilish qonun bilan majburiy etilganda, va dunyo haqiqiy Shabbatning majburiyati haqida ma’rifat olganda, shunda kimki Xudoning amrini buzib, Rimnikidan yuqoriroq hokimiyatga ega bo‘lmagan bir farmonga itoat etsa, shu bilan papalikni Xudodan ustun qo‘ygan bo‘ladi. U Rimga va Rim tomonidan tayinlangan muassasani majburan joriy etuvchi hokimiyatga ta’zim qilmoqda. U hayvonga va uning suratiga sajda qilmoqda. Odamlar Xudo O‘z hokimiyatining belgisi deb e’lon qilgan muassasani rad etib, uning o‘rniga Rim o‘z ustunligining nishonasi sifatida tanlagan narsani e’zozlaganlarida, shu orqali ular Rimga sadoqat belgisini — ‘hayvonning tamg‘asi’ni — qabul qilgan bo‘ladilar. Va masala xalqqa ana shunday ravshan qo‘yilib, ular Xudoning amrlari bilan insonlarning amrlari o‘rtasida tanlov qilish holatiga keltirilmaguncha, qonunbuzarlikda davom etayotganlar ‘hayvonning tamg‘asi’ni qabul qilmaydilar.” Buyuk Kurash, 449.

Those who obtain the victory over the beast, the image of the beast and the mark of the beast must also obtain the victory over the number of his name. In the period of history when the whore of Tyre was not forgotten, the Protestant world knew the papacy was the antichrist. They knew that Paul had identified the papacy as “that wicked,” “the man of sin,” “the mystery of iniquity” and “the son of perdition; Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, showing himself that he is God.” But now the great whore of Tyre has been forgotten.

Yirtqich, yirtqichning surati va yirtqichning belgisi ustidan g‘alaba qozonganlar, uning ismining soni ustidan ham g‘alaba qozonishlari kerak. Tarixning Tir fohishasi unutilmagan davrida, protestant olami papalikning daxjol ekanini bilardi. Ular Pavlus papalikni “o‘sha badkor”, “gunoh odami”, “qabihlik siri” va “halokat o‘g‘li” deb ta’riflaganini bilardilar; u “Xudo deb atalgan yoki sajda qilinadigan har qanday narsaga qarshi chiqib, o‘zini ulardan yuqori qo‘yadi; hatto o‘zini Xudo deb ko‘rsatib, Xudoning ma’badida Xudo sifatida o‘tiradi.” Ammo endi Tirning buyuk fohishasi unutilgan.

In ages past there were various isopsephy, or gematria, applications that demonstrated that the number “666” symbolically represented the papacy. A classic example of this is that on the pope’s miter the words Vicarius Filii Dei are written. Vicarius Filii Dei, which means the “Vicegerent of the Son of God”, and therefore addresses his claim of being seated in God’s temple, claiming to be God. The Latin letters of Vicarius Filii Dei equate to the number six hundred and sixty-six.

O‘tgan asrlarda “666” soni ramziy ma’noda papalikni ifodalashini ko‘rsatadigan turli isopsefiya, ya’ni gematriya, qo‘llanmalari bo‘lgan. Buning klassik misoli shuki, papaning mitrasida Vicarius Filii Dei so‘zlari yozilgan. Vicarius Filii Dei “Xudoning O‘g‘lining noibi” degan ma’noni anglatadi va shu bois uning Xudoning ma’badida o‘tirib, o‘zini Xudo deb da’vo qilish haqidagi da’vosiga taalluqlidir. Vicarius Filii Dei ifodasidagi lotin harflari olti yuz oltmish olti soniga teng keladi.

The beast, which is the papal power, is identified by his number and his number is “666,” but the man of sin received a deadly wound in 1798, and has been forgotten. In the last days the deadly wound is to be healed, and the healing of the deadly wound identifies that the United States first forms an image to the beast in its own nation, and then forces the world to do the same.

Hayvon, ya’ni papalik hokimiyati, uning soni orqali aniqlanadi va uning soni “666”dir, biroq gunoh odami 1798-yilda halokatli yara oldi va unutilgan. Oxirgi kunlarda bu halokatli yara tuzalishi kerak, va halokatli yaraning tuzalishi shuni ko‘rsatadiki, Amerika Qo‘shma Shtatlari avvalo o‘z yurtida hayvonga bir surat yasaydi, so‘ngra esa butun dunyoni ham xuddi shunday qilishga majbur etadi.

The world image of the beast is both twofold and threefold. It is prophetically twofold for it is made up of a combination of church and state, but it is threefold in that it is made up of the dragon, the beast and the false prophet. When the threefold union of the very powers that will lead the world to Armageddon is established, they will be the beast that is the eighth kingdom that is of the seven, and it will also be the threefold union of the sixth kingdom. The number of the beast’s name in the last days is again “666,” for it represents three kingdoms that are each part of the sixth kingdom.

Dunyo miqyosidagi hayvonning surati ham ikki qirrali, ham uch qirrali. U payg‘ambarlik ma’nosida ikki qirralidir, chunki u jamoat va davlatning birikmasidan tashkil topgan; biroq u uch qirralidir, chunki u ajdar, hayvon va soxta payg‘ambardan tashkil topgan. Butun dunyoni Armageddonga olib boradigan aynan o‘sha kuchlarning uch tomonlama ittifoqi qaror topganda, ular yettidan bo‘lgan sakkizinchi shohlik bo‘lgan hayvon bo‘ladilar, va u, shuningdek, oltinchi shohlikning uch tomonlama ittifoqi ham bo‘ladi. Oxirgi kunlarda hayvonning ismining soni yana “666”dir, chunki u har biri oltinchi shohlikning bir qismi bo‘lgan uchta shohlikni ifodalaydi.

To get victory over the beast, his image, his mark and the number of his name is to understand the riddle that “the eighth is of the seven”, which is the secret of Daniel two, which Daniel prayed to understand. It is an element of the Revelation of Jesus Christ that is unsealed just before probation closes, for as John said, the “time is at hand.” For this reason, those who get that victory are represented as being with the angels who pour out the plagues, for they get the victory, or the necessary prophetic understanding, just before probation closes.

Yirtqich, uning surati, uning tamg‘asi va uning nomining soni ustidan g‘alabaga erishish — “sakkizinchisi yettitadan” ekanligi haqidagi topishmoqni anglash demakdir; bu Doniyor ikkinchi bobining siridir, Doniyor uni tushunish uchun ibodat qilgan. Bu Iso Masihning Vahiyining bir unsuridir va sinov muddati yopilishidan sal oldin muhrdan ochiladi, chunki Yuhanno aytganidek, “vaqt yaqin.” Shu sababdan, bu g‘alabaga erishganlar balolarni to‘kadigan farishtalar bilan birga tasvirlanadi, chunki ular sinov muddati yopilishidan sal oldin g‘alabaga, ya’ni zarur bo‘lgan payg‘ambarlik tushunchasiga, erishadilar.

Those who understand that the Revelation of Jesus Christ is unsealed just before the close of probation, and that the number “666,” is an element of that vision will not miss that the vision of Ezekiel chapter eight begins on the fifth day (which is the day before the sixth day), in the sixth month of the sixth year. By the end of chapter eight twenty-five men are bowing down to the sun, and chapter nine identifies those who receive the seal of God.

Iso Masihning Vahiyi sinov muddati yopilishidan sal avval muhrdan ochilishini va “666” soni o‘sha vahiy tarkibiy unsurlaridan biri ekanini tushunadiganlar, Hizqiyol kitobining sakkizinchi bobidagi vahiy oltinchi yilning oltinchi oyida, beshinchi kuni (ya’ni oltinchi kundan oldingi kunda) boshlanishini ko‘zdan qochirmaydilar. Sakkizinchi bobning oxiriga kelib, yigirma besh kishi quyoshga sajda qilmoqda, to‘qqizinchi bob esa Xudoning muhrini oladiganlarni ko‘rsatadi.

The context of the vision is the mark of the beast and the seal of God, and the vision is opened up just before probation closes at the Sunday law, as typified by the number “666.” But the close of probation that is identified as occurring at the Sunday law in the United States, is not the close of human probation, it is the close of probation only for Seventh-day Adventists.

Vahiyning konteksti — yirtqichning belgisi va Xudoning muhridir; bu vahiy “666” soni bilan timsollangan yakshanba qonuni paytida sinov muddati yopilishidan sal avval ochib beriladi. Ammo Qo‘shma Shtatlardagi yakshanba qonuni paytida yuz berishi sifatida ko‘rsatilgan sinov muddatining yopilishi insoniyatning sinov muddati yopilishi emas, balki faqat Yettinchi kun adventistlari uchun sinov muddatining yopilishidir.

The vision is represented as taking place within Jerusalem, which is a symbol of the Seventh-day Adventist church. At the Sunday law in the United States, Seventh-day Adventists are the only class that is, there and then, held accountable to the light of the Sabbath.

Vahiy Quddus ichida sodir bo‘layotgandek tasvirlanadi; Quddus — Yettinchi kun adventistlari jamoatining timsolidir. Amerika Qo‘shma Shtatlarida yakshanba qonuni joriy etilganda, Yettinchi kun adventistlari Shabbat haqidagi nur oldida aynan o‘sha yerda va o‘sha paytda javobgar deb hisoblanadigan yagona toifadir.

“If the light of truth has been presented to you, revealing the Sabbath of the fourth commandment, and showing that there is no foundation in the Word of God for Sunday observance, and yet you still cling to the false sabbath, refusing to keep holy the Sabbath which God calls ‘my holy day,’ you receive the mark of the beast. When does this take place?—When you obey the decree that commands you to cease from labor on Sunday and worship God, while you know that there is not a word in the Bible showing Sunday to be other than a common working-day, you consent to receive the mark of the beast, and refuse the seal of God. If we receive this mark in our foreheads or in our hands, the judgments pronounced against the disobedient must fall upon us. But the seal of the living God is placed upon those who conscientiously keep the Sabbath of the Lord.” Review and Herald, April 27, 1911.

“Agar haqiqat nuri sizga taqdim etilgan bo‘lsa, to‘rtinchi amrning Shabbatini ochib berib, yakshanbaga rioya qilish uchun Xudoning Kalomida hech qanday asos yo‘qligini ko‘rsatgan bo‘lsa, va siz shunga qaramay hanuz soxta shabbatga yopishib olib, Xudo ‘mening muqaddas kunim’ deb ataydigan Shabbatni muqaddas tutishdan bosh tortsangiz, siz mahluqning tamg‘asini qabul qilasiz. Bu qachon sodir bo‘ladi?—Sizga yakshanba kuni mehnatdan to‘xtashni va Xudoga sajda qilishni buyuradigan farmonga itoat etganingizda, ayni vaqtda Muqaddas Kitobda yakshanbaning oddiy ish kuni ekanidan boshqa narsa ekanini ko‘rsatuvchi biror so‘z yo‘qligini bilgan holda, siz mahluqning tamg‘asini qabul qilishga rozilik bildirasiz va Xudoning muhrini rad etasiz. Agar biz bu tamg‘ani peshonamizda yoki qo‘limizda qabul qilsak, itoatsizlar ustidan e’lon qilingan hukmlar boshimizga tushishi shart. Ammo barhayot Xudoning muhri Rabbiyning Shabbatini vijdonan tutadiganlarning ustiga qo‘yiladi.” Review and Herald, 1911-yil 27-aprel.

The vision of Ezekiel chapter eight through chapter eleven, identifies the history leading up to the close of probation for Jerusalem. It is portrayed as taking place just a day before the number “666” arrives, and chapter eight identifies an escalating rebellion within Jerusalem that culminates with the leading men bowing to the sun, thus receiving the mark of the beast.

Hizqiyol kitobining sakkizinchi bobidan o‘n birinchi bobigacha bo‘lgan vahiy, Quddus uchun sinov muddatining yopilishigacha olib kelgan tarixni ko‘rsatib beradi. U “666” soni yetib kelishidan atigi bir kun oldin sodir bo‘layotgandek tasvirlanadi, va sakkizinchi bob Quddus ichidagi tobora kuchayib borayotgan isyonni ko‘rsatadi; bu isyon oxir-oqibat yetakchi kishilarning quyoshga sajda qilishi bilan yakun topadi va shu tariqa ular hayvonning tamg‘asini qabul qiladilar.

Chapter nine, represents an angel going through Jerusalem (thus identifying a progression), and placing a seal upon one class in advance of the destroying angels who thereafter slay all who do not have the seal. Both chapters represent a progressive history that leads to the Sunday law, where one class bows to the sun, and the other receives the seal of God. The wicked are then removed from Jerusalem, for the Sunday law separates the wicked and the wise.

To‘qqizinchi bob Quddus bo‘ylab o‘tib borayotgan bir farishtani ifodalaydi (shu tariqa bir taraqqiyotni ko‘rsatadi) va undan keyin muhrga ega bo‘lmaganlarning barchasini qirib tashlaydigan halok qiluvchi farishtalardan oldinroq bir toifa ustiga muhr qo‘yadi. Har ikkala bob ham Yakshanba qonuniga olib boradigan izchil tarixni ifodalaydi; o‘sha yerda bir toifa quyoshga sajda qiladi, boshqasi esa Xudoning muhrini qabul qiladi. Shundan so‘ng fosiqlar Quddusdan olib tashlanadi, chunki Yakshanba qonuni fosiqlar bilan donolarni ajratadi.

The sealing that is represented in Ezekiel chapter nine is the same sealing that is represented in Revelation chapter seven.

Hizqiyol kitobining to‘qqizinchi bobida tasvirlangan muhrlash Vahiy kitobining yettinchi bobida tasvirlangan o‘sha muhrlashning o‘zidir.

“If such scenes as this are to come, such tremendous judgments on a guilty world, where will be the refuge for God’s people? How will they be sheltered until the indignation be overpast? John sees the elements of nature—earthquake, tempest, and political strife—represented as being held by four angels. These winds are under control until God gives the word to let them go. There is the safety of God’s church. The angels of God do His bidding, holding back the winds of the earth, that the winds should not blow on the earth, nor on the sea, nor on any tree, until the servants of God should be sealed in their foreheads. The mighty angel is seen ascending from the east (or sunrising). This mightiest of angels has in his hand the seal of the living God, or of Him who alone can give life, who can inscribe upon the foreheads the mark or inscription, to whom shall be granted immortality, eternal life. It is the voice of this highest angel that had authority to command the four angels to keep in check the four winds until this work was performed, and until he should give the summons to let them loose.

“Agar bunday manzaralar ro‘y beradigan bo‘lsa, aybdor dunyo ustiga shunday dahshatli hukmlar keladigan bo‘lsa, Xudoning xalqi uchun boshpana qayerda bo‘ladi? G‘azab o‘tib ketguncha ular qanday panada saqlanadi? Yuhanno tabiat unsurlarini — zilzila, bo‘ron va siyosiy nizoni — to‘rt farishta tomonidan ushlab turilgan holda ko‘radi. Bu shamollar Xudo ularni qo‘yib yuborish haqida so‘z bermaguncha nazorat ostidadir. Ana shunda Xudoning jamoatining xavfsizligi namoyon bo‘ladi. Xudoning farishtalari Uning amrini bajo keltirib, yer shamollarini ushlab turadilar, toki Xudoning qullari peshonalarida muhrlanmaguncha shamollar na yerga, na dengizga, na biror daraxtga esmasin. Sharqdan (yoki quyosh chiqish tomondan) ko‘tarilib kelayotgan qudratli farishta ko‘rinadi. Farishtalarning eng qudratlisi o‘z qo‘lida barhayot Xudoning, ya’ni hayotni ato eta oladigan, peshonalarga kimlarga boqiylik, abadiy hayot berilishi lozim bo‘lsa, o‘shalarga belgi yoki bitikni yozib qo‘ya oladigan Zotning muhrini tutib turadi. Ana shu eng yuksak farishtaning ovozi bu ish bajarilmaguncha va ularni qo‘yib yuborish haqida buyruq bermaguncha, to‘rt shamolni tiyib turish uchun to‘rt farishtaga amr etish hokimiyatiga ega edi.”

“Those that overcome the world, the flesh, and the devil, will be the favored ones who shall receive the seal of the living God. Those whose hands are not clean, whose hearts are not pure, will not have the seal of the living God. Those who are planning sin and acting it will be passed by. Only those who, in their attitude before God, are filling the position of those who are repenting and confessing their sins in the great anti-typical Day of Atonement, will be recognized and marked as worthy of God’s protection. The names of those who are steadfastly looking and waiting and watching for the appearing of their Saviour—more earnestly and wishfully than they who wait for the morning—will be numbered with those who are sealed. Those who, while having all the light of truth flashing upon their souls, should have works corresponding to their avowed faith, but are allured by sin, setting up idols in their hearts, corrupting their souls before God, and polluting those who unite with them in sin, will have their names blotted out of the book of life, and be left in midnight darkness, having no oil in their vessels with their lamps. ‘Unto you that fear My name shall the Sun of Righteousness arise with healing in His wings.’

“Dunyo, tana va iblis ustidan g‘olib kelganlar tirik Xudoning muhrini qabul qiladigan marhamat topgan kishilar bo‘ladilar. Qo‘llari pok bo‘lmagan, qalblari sof bo‘lmaganlar tirik Xudoning muhriga ega bo‘lmaydilar. Gunohni rejalashtirib, uni amalga oshirayotganlar chetlab o‘tiladilar. Faqat Xudo huzuridagi ruhiy holatida buyuk antitipik Kafforat kunida tavba qilayotgan va gunohlarini e’tirof etayotganlar o‘rnini egallayotganlargina Xudoning himoyasiga loyiq deb tan olinib, belgilab qo‘yiladilar. O‘z Najotkorining zohir bo‘lishini tongni kutuvchilardan ham ko‘ra yanada jiddiyroq va orziqib kutayotgan, kutib turayotgan va hushyorlik bilan kuzatayotganlarning nomlari muhrlanganlar qatoriga kiritiladi. Jonlariga haqiqat nuri to‘la porlab turgan holda, o‘z e’lon qilingan imonlariga muvofiq ishlar qilishi kerak bo‘lsa-da, gunohga mahliyo bo‘lib, qalblarida butlar o‘rnatayotgan, Xudo oldida jonlarini buzayotgan va gunohda ularga qo‘shilayotganlarni bulg‘ayotganlarning nomlari hayot kitobidan o‘chirib tashlanadi va ular chiroqlari bilan birga idishlarida moyi bo‘lmay, yarim tun zulmatida qoldiriladilar. ‘Mening ismimdan qo‘rqadigan sizlar uchun esa Solihlik Quyoshi O‘z qanotlarida shifo bilan porlab chiqadi.’”

This sealing of the servants of God is the same that was shown to Ezekiel in vision. John also had been a witness of this most startling revelation. He saw the sea and the waves roaring, and men’s hearts failing them for fear. He beheld the earth moved, and the mountains carried into the midst of the sea (which is literally taking place), the water thereof roaring and troubled, and the mountains shaking with the swelling thereof. He was shown plagues, pestilence, famine, and death performing their terrible mission.” Testimonies to Ministers, 445.

“Xudoning qullarini muhrlash — Hizqiyoga vahiyda ko‘rsatilgan o‘sha narsaning o‘zidir. Yuhanno ham bu nihoyatda dahshatli vahiyning guvohi bo‘lgan edi. U dengiz va to‘lqinlarning gumburlab qaynayotganini, odamlarning yuraklari esa qo‘rquvdan holsizlanayotganini ko‘rdi. U yerning silkinayotganini va tog‘larning dengiz o‘rtasiga ko‘chirilayotganini (bu tom ma’noda sodir bo‘lmoqda), uning suvlari shovullab, to‘lqinlanayotganini va tog‘lar uning toshqinidan larzaga kelayotganini ko‘rdi. Unga balolar, vabolar, qahatchilik va o‘lim o‘z dahshatli vazifasini ado etayotgan holda ko‘rsatildi.” Testimonies to Ministers, 445.

The sealing of the one hundred and forty four thousand in Revelation chapter seven is also represented in chapter nine of Ezekiel, and the sealing angel is the mightiest angel, who ascends from the east. Those who are lost, who have their names blotted out of the book of life, are represented as having “no oil in their vessels with their lamps.” The two classes in the vision of Ezekiel chapter eight through eleven, are the wise and foolish virgins of Matthew twenty-five, and they are therefore Adventists.

Vahiy kitobining yettinchi bobida tilga olingan bir yuz qirq to‘rt ming kishining muhrlanishi Hizqiyo kitobining to‘qqizinchi bobida ham tasvirlangan bo‘lib, muhrlovchi farishta sharqdan ko‘tarilib keladigan eng qudratli farishtadir. Halok bo‘ladiganlar, hayot kitobidan ismlari o‘chirib tashlanadiganlar, “chiroqlari bilan birga idishlarida moy yo‘q” bo‘lganlar sifatida tasvirlangan. Hizqiyo kitobining sakkizinchi bobidan o‘n birinchi bobigacha bo‘lgan vahiydagi ikki toifa Matto yigirma beshinchi bobidagi dono va nodon bokiralardir; demak, ular adventistlardir.

“The parable of the ten virgins of Matthew 25 also illustrates the experience of the Adventist people.The Great Controversy, 393.

“Matto 25-bobdagi o‘nta bokira qiz haqidagi masal ham Adventist xalqining tajribasini tasvirlaydi.” Buyuk kurash, 393.

Sister White specifically identifies Jerusalem of Ezekiel’s vision as Adventism:

Opa Uayt Hizqiyoning vahiyidagi Quddusni aniq ravishda Adventizm deb belgilaydi:

“The true people of God, who have the spirit of the work of the Lord and the salvation of souls at heart, will ever view sin in its real, sinful character. They will always be on the side of faithful and plain dealing with sins which easily beset the people of God. Especially in the closing work for the church, in the sealing time of the one hundred and forty-four thousand who are to stand without fault before the throne of God, will they feel most deeply the wrongs of God’s professed people. This is forcibly set forth by the prophet’s illustration of the last work under the figure of the men each having a slaughter weapon in his hand. One man among them was clothed with linen, with a writer’s inkhorn by his side. ‘And the Lord said unto him, Go through the midst of the city, through the midst of Jerusalem, and set a mark upon the foreheads of the men that sigh and that cry for all the abominations that be done in the midst thereof.’” Testimonies, volume 3, 266.

“Rabbiy ishining ruhi va jonlarning najotini dilda tutgan Xudoning haqiqiy xalqi gunohni har doim uning asl, gunohkor tabiatida ko‘radi. Ular Xudoning xalqini osonlik bilan qamrab oladigan gunohlarga nisbatan doimo sadoqatli va ochiq muomala tarafida bo‘ladilar. Ayniqsa jamoat uchun bo‘layotgan yakunlovchi ishda, Xudoning taxti oldida aybsiz turishi kerak bo‘lgan bir yuz qirq to‘rt mingning muhrlanish vaqtida, ular Xudoning nomini da’vo qiluvchi xalqining nohaqliklarini eng chuqur tarzda his qiladilar. Bu holat payg‘ambarning oxirgi ish haqidagi tasvirida, qo‘lida qirg‘in quroli bo‘lgan kishilar timsoli ostida kuchli tarzda bayon etilgan. Ular orasidagi bir kishi zig‘ir libosga burkangan bo‘lib, yonida kotibning siyohdonini olib yurardi. ‘Va Egamiz unga dedi: Shahar o‘rtasidan, Quddus o‘rtasidan o‘tib, uning o‘rtasida qilinayotgan barcha jirkanchliklar uchun oh tortib, faryod qilayotgan kishilarning peshonalariga belgi qo‘y.’” Testimonies, 3-jild, 266.

The vision of Ezekiel chapters eight through eleven, is directly addressing the history of Adventism leading up to and at the Sunday law. It identifies the two classes of worshippers who are within Jerusalem (Adventism), and is prophetically associated with the Revelation of Jesus Christ that is unsealed just before the close of probation, for its first references is setting forth the number “666” in prophetic symbolism. In doing so it identifies one of four things the wise must get victory over in the last days, and those four things are part of the light of the eighth being “of the seven”. Revelation fifteen also identifies that those that get the victory over the four symbolic aspects of the papacy, sing the song of Moses and the Lamb.

Hizqiyol kitobining sakkizinchi bobidan o‘n birinchi bobigacha bo‘lgan vahiy bevosita Adventizm tarixiga, yakshanba qonunigacha bo‘lgan davrga va uning o‘ziga murojaat qiladi. U Quddus (Adventizm) ichida bo‘lgan sajda qiluvchilarning ikki toifasini aniqlab beradi hamda sinov muddati yakunlanishidan sal oldin muhrdan yechiladigan Iso Masihning Vahiy kitobi bilan payg‘ambarlik jihatidan bog‘liqdir, chunki uning ilk ishoralari payg‘ambarlik ramziyligida “666” sonini bayon qiladi. Shu tariqa u oxirgi kunlarda donolar g‘alaba qozonishi lozim bo‘lgan to‘rt narsadan birini aniqlab beradi, va o‘sha to‘rt narsa sakkizinchining “yettidan” ekani haqidagi nurning bir qismidir. Vahiy o‘n beshinchi bob ham papalikning to‘rtta ramziy jihati ustidan g‘alaba qozonganlar Muso va Qo‘zining qo‘shig‘ini kuylashlarini ko‘rsatadi.

In that day Isaiah, in chapter twenty-seven says that the righteous of the last days will sing the song of the vineyard, which is a song that the Lamb sang when he walked among men that identifies a chosen people who are being passed by as a new chosen people are being selected. That song is sung by “the wise” of the last days during the sealing of Ezekiel nine and Revelation seven. Ezekiel’s vision of chapters eight through eleven is part of that very song.

O‘sha kunda Ishayo yigirma yettinchi bobda aytadiki, oxirgi kunlardagi solihlar uzumzor qo‘shig‘ini kuylaydilar; bu — Qo‘zi insonlar orasida yurganida kuylagan, tanlangan yangi bir xalq saralanayotgan paytda chetlab o‘tilayotgan tanlangan xalqni ajratib ko‘rsatadigan qo‘shiqdir. Bu qo‘shiq Hizqiyol to‘qqizinchi bob va Vahiy yettinchi bobdagi muhrlash davrida oxirgi kunlarning “donolari” tomonidan kuylanadi. Hizqiyolning sakkizinchi bobdan o‘n birinchi bobgacha bo‘lgan vahiylari aynan o‘sha qo‘shiqning bir qismidir.

We will continue this study in the next article.

Biz bu tadqiqotni keyingi maqolada davom ettiramiz.

“The true people of God, who have the spirit of the work of the Lord and the salvation of souls at heart, will ever view sin in its real, sinful character. They will always be on the side of faithful and plain dealing with sins which easily beset the people of God. Especially in the closing work for the church, in the sealing time of the one hundred and forty-four thousand who are to stand without fault before the throne of God, will they feel most deeply the wrongs of God’s professed people. This is forcibly set forth by the prophet’s illustration of the last work under the figure of the men each having a slaughter weapon in his hand. One man among them was clothed with linen, with a writer’s inkhorn by his side. ‘And the Lord said unto him, Go through the midst of the city, through the midst of Jerusalem, and set a mark upon the foreheads of the men that sigh and that cry for all the abominations that be done in the midst thereof.’

“Xudoning haqiqiy xalqi, qalbida Rabbiyning ishini va jonlarning najotini olib yurganlar, gunohni doimo uning asl, gunohkor tabiatida ko‘radilar. Ular Xudoning xalqini osonlik bilan o‘rab oladigan gunohlarga nisbatan har doim sodiq va ochiqchasiga muomala qilish tomonida bo‘ladilar. Ayniqsa jamoat uchun bo‘layotgan yakuniy ishda, Xudoning taxti oldida nuqsonsiz turishi lozim bo‘lgan bir yuz qirq to‘rt ming kishining muhrlanish vaqtida, ular Xudoning nomini da’vo qiluvchi xalqining nohaqliklarini eng chuqur his qiladilar. Bu narsa payg‘ambarning oxirgi ish haqidagi tasvirida, har biri qo‘lida qirg‘in quroli bo‘lgan kishilar timsoli ostida kuchli tarzda bayon etilgan. Ularning orasidagi bir kishi zig‘ir kiyimga burkangan bo‘lib, yonida kotibning siyohdonini olib yurgan edi. “Va Rabbiy unga dedi: Shahar o‘rtasidan, Quddus o‘rtasidan o‘tib, uning ichida qilinayotgan barcha jirkanch ishlar uchun xo‘rsinib, faryod qilayotgan kishilarning peshonalariga belgi qo‘y.”

“Who are standing in the counsel of God at this time? Is it those who virtually excuse wrongs among the professed people of God and who murmur in their hearts, if not openly, against those who would reprove sin? Is it those who take their stand against them and sympathize with those who commit wrong? No, indeed! Unless they repent, and leave the work of Satan in oppressing those who have the burden of the work and in holding up the hands of sinners in Zion, they will never receive the mark of God’s sealing approval. They will fall in the general destruction of the wicked, represented by the work of the five men bearing slaughter weapons. Mark this point with care: Those who receive the pure mark of truth, wrought in them by the power of the Holy Ghost, represented by a mark by the man in linen, are those ‘that sigh and that cry for all the abominations that be done’ in the church. Their love for purity and the honor and glory of God is such, and they have so clear a view of the exceeding sinfulness of sin, that they are represented as being in agony, even sighing and crying. Read the ninth chapter of Ezekiel.

“Bu vaqtda Xudoning maslahatida turayotganlar kimlar? Xudoning nomini tutgan xalq orasidagi gunohlarni amalda oqlaydigan va gunohni fosh etadiganlarga qarshi, oshkora bo‘lmasa ham, yuraklarida g‘udranadiganlar shularmi? O‘zlarini ularga qarshi qo‘yib, nohaqlik qiluvchilarga hamdardlik bildiradiganlar shularmi? Yo‘q, aslo! Agar ular tavba qilmasalar va ishning yukini ko‘targanlarni ezishda hamda Siondagi gunohkorlarning qo‘lini ko‘tarishda Shaytonning ishini tark etmasalar, ular hech qachon Xudoning muhrlovchi ma’qullash alomatini olmaydilar. Ular qirg‘in qurollarini ko‘targan besh kishining ishi bilan tasvirlangan, yovuzlarning umumiy halokatida halok bo‘ladilar. Bu nuqtani diqqat bilan qayd eting: Muqaddas Ruhning qudrati orqali ularda hosil qilingan, zig‘ir kiyimdagi kishi qo‘ygan belgi bilan ifodalangan haqiqatning pok alomatini oladiganlar, jamoatda qilinayotgan barcha jirkanch ishlardan ‘uh tortib, faryod qiladiganlar’dir. Ularning poklikka bo‘lgan sevgisi hamda Xudoning sha’ni va ulug‘vorligiga bo‘lgan sadoqati shunchalik buyuk, gunohning nihoyatda gunohkor ekanini ko‘rishlari shunchalik ravshanki, ular iztirobda bo‘lgandek, hatto uh tortib, faryod qilayotganlar sifatida tasvirlanadi. Hizqiyolning to‘qqizinchi bobini o‘qing.”

“But the general slaughter of all those who do not thus see the wide contrast between sin and righteousness, and do not feel as those do who stand in the counsel of God and receive the mark, is described in the order to the five men with slaughter weapons: ‘Go ye after him through the city, and smite: let not your eye spare, neither have ye pity: slay utterly old and young, both maids, and little children, and women: but come not near any man upon whom is the mark; and begin at My sanctuary.” Testimonies, volume 3, 266, 267.

“Ammo gunoh bilan solihlik o‘rtasidagi keng tafovutni shu tarzda ko‘rmaydigan va Xudoning maslahatida turib, tamg‘ani qabul qilganlar kabi his etmaydiganlarning barchasining umumiy qirilishi qirg‘in qurollarini ko‘targan besh kishiga berilgan amrda tasvirlangan: ‘Uning ortidan shahar bo‘ylab yuringlar va uringlar: ko‘zingiz ayamansin, rahm ham qilmanglar: qari-yoshni, qizlarni, kichik bolalarni va ayollarni batamom o‘ldiringlar; ammo ustida tamg‘a bo‘lgan biror kishiga yaqinlashmanglar; va Mening muqaddas joyimdan boshlanglar.’ Testimonies, 3-jild, 266, 267.”
