Jakob Lorber – The Great Gospel of John, vol. 5, part B
has come to us! This is now the true, new Jerusalem, of which a prophet
prophesied; the old and bad one however will soon perish!‖
[GGJ.05_270,06] Everyone copied this speech, and indeed with such
enthusiasm and power of voice that it reverberated from the many wide and
high cliff walls in a thousand echoes. The inhabitants, for whom such a game
of nature was still foreign, thought that I must therefore be a highest spiritual
person, because now even the spirits of the air and the mountains had joined
in with their praise.
[GGJ.05_270,07] Yet I Myself explained to them such a phenomenon, and
they accepted My explanation gratefully, but tested their powerful voices
once more and received the same effect even without the hosanna.
[GGJ.05_270,08] And they all believed then and said, ―You are alone the true
one; for the templars would already have stoned us now if we had not
believed that this very truly was spirits of the mountain and air!‖
[GGJ.05_270,09] But I said to the host that he should now look around at
how all these many guests, about two hundred in number, should be cared
for with a meal.

everyone!‖

larders full of bread, wine, milk, honey and fresh fish and another large
number of the finest flour for rolls and other dishes.
[GGJ.05_270,13] Then he came back again, beat himself on the breast and
said, ―Oh, that is now more than ever! I know exactly what was in my larders
before; they were only filled sparingly for my household, and now they beam
with the highest abundance! That was You again, oh Lord! Yes, now a
thousand can be cooked for, not only for two hundred! But where to find so
many cooks? The dear neighbors must today put their hands to work already;
for my people would not be finished before morning!‖
[GGJ.05_270,14] When the wives and children of the neighbor heard this,
they hurried into the large kitchen and got to work, and so a great meal was
ready in an hour.
[GGJ.05_270,15] The meal was indeed ready now; but then a very different
problem arose. The host now had far too few tables and benches, and his
rooms were also too small for two hundred guests. To be brief, everything
