1
The great messenger sounds the golden trumpet upward toward heaven.
2
Heaven opens from sunrise to sunset and from north to south.
3
Tzefanyah again sees the sea at the bottom of Hades, its fiery waves rising upward.
4
He sees souls sinking in it, some bound hand to neck and hand to foot.
5
He is told that some are those who accepted bribes and silver until the souls of other people were led astray.
6
He sees others covered with mats or wrappings of fire and is told that they gave money at interest and demanded interest upon interest.
7
He sees blind souls crying out and is told that they heard the word of Elohim but did not complete it in their deeds.
8
Tzefanyah asks whether repentance is possible in that place.
9
He is told that there is still a measure of repentance until the day when Yahuah judges.
10
He asks whether souls there possess body and hair, and the messenger answers that the Master gives them form as He wills.
