ber is mixed with salt. The chamber is
seven-sided. The last seventh of the passage-way sinks down, giving more
room to move in. Salt was an article used freely with the Jews in
sacrificing. Seven was a sacred number. The sinking of the last seventh
part of the passageway floor may mean the enlarging privilege of the Jews
in this latter day. Of the civilised nations, only Russia and Spain
forbid them citizenship. Even Turkey admits them now as citizens.
The Jews have been represented as being blind in part. The passage-way
and chamber have been difficult to explore because of foul air, there
being no ventilating tubes as in the King's Chamber.
But, strange to say, a gentleman exploring this chamber a short time ago,
found two tubes by an accident in striking the side wall with a hammer.
The tubes had been left entirely closed over with a thin unbroken scale.
These tubes extended inward through the masonry, and into the stones
forming the walls of the room, all nicely cut, but for about one inch
they were not cut through into the room itself. Thus the whole was
designed is evident. This thin scale no doubt symbolises the condition
of the Jew. His eyes are now open, the time of his wandering nearly
spent, as told by this Pyramid.
The curses foretold upon the Jews have been terribly fulfilled. So shall

reject Christ; so he did. But it is also foretold that he will yet look
upon Him whom he pierced, and mourn and repent, and accept the true
Messiah. Lo-ruhamah represents Lost Israel; Lo-Ammi represents cursed
Judah; Ruhamah represents Israel found; Ammi represents the curse removed
from the Jews. So now we must say, as the prophet Hosea long ago
instructed us--we Saxons--"Say ye unto your brother, Ammi," and you Jews,
"say to your sisters, Ruhamah."
We have esteemed the Jews as cursed; we will soon esteem them blest. The
Jews have never thought we were their brethren, the descendants of
Abraham. But God is revealing in this latter day His own great plan; and
Christ will be the Saviour of both.
"In His days Judah shall be saved, and Israel shall dwell safely.
Therefore, behold, the days come, saith the Lord, that they shall no more
say, The Lord liveth, which brought up the children of Israel out of
Egypt; but, The Lord liveth, which brought up, and which led the seed of
the House of Israel out of the North country, and from all c
