The EXCITING Prophecy in Aramaic of The SON+ of GOD from Qumran Cave 4 --- 4Q24

4Q246 -- SON+ OF GOD document from QUMRAN CAVE 4

An Exciting Prophecy of the "SON+ of GOD" Document

from Qumran Cave 4

Has Scholars "Puzzled" as to Who+ this "SON+ of GOD" Might be . . .

. . .  but we know !  

This is an Aramaic fragment , one page long, from a longer scroll which has perished. It was found in Qumran Cave 4. 

Scholars have named it "The Apocryphon of Daniel", the "Aramaic Apocalypse" , or Pseudo-Daniel."  It was written in Aramaic and is believed to have been written  by someone around the first century BC.

Scholars are puzzled and hence, much debate reigns, over the identity of the "SON of GOD" in this end-time prophecy. 

However, Born-Again, Anew, From-Above Christians will have no trouble verifying "WHO+" the "SON+ of GOD"  is . . . and the events recorded in this prophecy.

So, before we tell you, dear Reader, see if you can figure it out, also.

The first column has many lapses. It is filled in with suppositions of the letters and words by the scholars. We have omitted it here and placed it at the end of this article.

 It is available at the WIKIPEDIA LINK . SON of GOD DOCUMENT 4Q246 from Qumran Cave 4 DEAD SEA SCROLLS

HOWEVER . . . the second column of the scroll document is well defined and clearly legible. Here is the translation of Column Two.

1. He will be called the son of God,

they will call him the son of the Most High.

But like the meteors

2. that you saw in your vision,

so will be their kingdom.

They will reign only a few years over

3. the land, while people tramples people

and nation tramples nation.

4. Until the people of God arise;

then all will have rest from warfare.

5. Their kingdom will be an eternal kingdom,

and all their paths will be righteous. They will judge

6. the land justly, and all nations will make peace.

Warfare will cease from the land,

7. and all the nations shall do obeisance to them.

The great God will be their help,

8. He Himself will fight for them,

putting peoples into their power,

9. overthrowing them all before them.

God's rule will be an eternal rule

and all the depths of 10. [the earth are His].

COURTESY OF: 4Q246 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/4Q246

Now, here are Scriptures which reflect these same things as found in 4Q246 -- the "Son of God" document from Qumran Cave 4. .

1. HE+ will be called the SON+ of GOD,

they will call HIM+  the SON+ of the MOST HIGH. 

And the angel answered and said unto her, 

The HOLY SPIRIT shall come upon thee, 

and the power of the HIGHEST shall overshadow thee: therefore also that HOLY THING Which shall be born of thee shall be called the SON+ of GOD.

 Luke 1:35

 HE+ shall be great, 

and shall be called the SON+ of the HIGHEST: 

and the LORD GOD shall give unto HIM+ 

the throne of his father David: 

Luke 1:32

But like the meteors

 2. that you saw in your vision,

so will be their kingdom. 

They will reign only a few years over

3. the land, while people tramples people

and nation tramples nation.

And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet.

 For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places.

All these are the beginning of sorrows. 

Matthew 24: 6-9

4. Until the people of GOD arise; 

¹⁴ For if we believe that JESUS died and rose again, even so them also which sleep in JESUS will GOD bring with HIM+.

¹⁵ For this we say unto you by the Word of the LORD, that we which are alive and remain unto the coming of the LORD shall not precede them which are asleep.

¹⁶ For the LORD HIMSELF+ shall descend from Heaven with a shout, with the Voice of the Archangel, and with the Trump of GOD: 

and the DEAD in CHRIST shall rise first:

¹⁷ Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the LORD in the air: and so shall we ever be with the LORD. 

1 Thessalonians 4: 14 -17

then all will have rest from warfare.

And HE+ shall judge among the nations, 

and shall rebuke many people: 

and they shall beat their swords into plowshares, 

and their spears into pruninghooks: 

nation shall not lift up sword against nation, 

neither shall they learn war any more. 

Isaiah 2:4

5. Their kingdom will be an eternal kingdom, 

⁴ And I saw thrones, and they sat upon them, and judgment was given unto them: 

and I saw the souls of them that were beheaded for the witness of JESUS, and for the Word of GOD, and which had not worshipped the beast, neither his image, neither had received his mark upon their foreheads, or in their hands; and they lived and reigned with CHRIST a thousand years.

⁵ But the rest of the dead lived not again until the thousand years were finished. This is the First Resurrection.

⁶ Blessed and holy is he that hath part in the First Resurrection: on such the second death hath no power, but they shall be Priests of GOD and of CHRIST, and shall reign with him a thousand years. 

Revelation 20: 4-6

and all their paths will be righteous. They will judge

6. the land justly, and all nations will make peace.

Warfare will cease from the land,

7. and all the nations shall do obeisance to them. 

The Great GOD will be their help,

And I saw a new heaven and a new earth: for the first heaven and the first earth were passed away; and there was no more sea.

² And I John saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down from GOD out of heaven, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband.

³ And I heard a great voice out of Heaven saying, Behold, the Tabernacle of GOD is with men, and HE+ will dwell with them, and they shall be HIS+ people, and GOD HIMSELF shall be with them, and be their GOD.

⁴ And GOD shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away.

⁵ And HE+ that sat upon the throne said, Behold, I+ make all things new. And HE+ said unto me, Write: for these words are true and faithful. 

Revelation 21: 1-5

8. HE HIMSELF will fight for them,

putting peoples into their power,

 ¹⁶ And it shall come to pass, that every one that is left of all the nations which came against Jerusalem shall even go up from year to year to worship the KING+, the LORD+ of HOSTS, and to keep the feast of tabernacles.

¹⁷ And it shall be, that whoso will not come up of all the families of the earth unto Jerusalem to worship the KING+, the LORD+ of HOSTS, even upon them shall be no rain.

¹⁸ And if the family of Egypt go not up, and come not, that have no rain; there shall be the plague, wherewith the Lord will smite the heathen that come not up to keep the feast of tabernacles.

¹⁹ This shall be the punishment of Egypt, and the punishment of all nations that come not up to keep the feast of tabernacles.

²⁰ In that day shall there be upon the bells of the horses, HOLINESS UNTO THE LORD ; and the pots in the LORD'S house shall be like the bowls before the altar.

²¹ Yea, every pot in Jerusalem and in Judah shall be holiness unto the LORD+ of HOSTS: and all they that sacrifice shall come and take of them, and seethe therein: and in that day there shall be no more the Canaanite in the house of the LORD+ OF HOSTS.

Zechariah 14: 16-21

9. overthrowing them all before them.

GOD'S rule will be an eternal rule

and all the depths of 10. [the earth are His].

ENGLISH IS BELOW THE ARAMAIC ( IN HEBREW BLOCK LETTERS ) PICTURE OF THE WRITING ON THE SCROLL 4Q246. 

One can see the lapses of words and letters ( called lacuna ) and the conjectures by the scholars in Column 1 by the brackets and omission in the lines. Trained papyrologists have placed their suppositions in the text.

 1. [. . . ] [a spirit from God] rested upon him, he fell before the throne.

³ And there shall be no more curse:

 but the throne of GOD and of the LAMB+ shall be in it; 

and His servants shall serve HIM:

⁴ And they shall see His+ Face; and His+ Name

for the LORD GOD giveth them light: 

and they shall reign for ever and ever.
