to: Queen of the South “Candace of the Ethiopians”
Matthew 12-40 For just as Jonah was in the belly of the huge fish three
days and three nights, so the Son of man will be in the heart of the earth
three days and three nights. 41 Men of Nineveh will rise up in the judgment
with this generation and will condemn it; because they repented at what
Jonah preached, but, look! something more than Jonah is here. 42 The queen
of the south will be raised up in the judgment with this generation and
will condemn it; because she came from the ends of the earth to hear the
wisdom of Solomon, but, look! something more than Solomon is here.
Act s8- 26 However, Jehovah's angel spoke to Philip, saying: "Rise and
go to the south to the road that runs down from Jerusalem to Gaza." (This
is a desert road.) 27 With that he rose and went, and, look! an Ethiopian
eunuch, a man in power under Candace queen of the Ethiopians, and who was
over all her treasure. He had gone to Jerusalem to worship, 28 but he was
returning and was sitting in his chariot and reading aloud the prophet
Isaiah. 29 So the spirit said to Philip: "Approach and join yourself to
this chariot." 30 Philip ran alongside and heard him reading aloud Isaiah
the prophet, and he said: "Do you actually know what you are reading?"
31 He said: "Really, how could I ever do so, unless someone guided me?"
And he entreated Philip to get on and sit down with him. 32 Now the passage
of Scripture that he was reading aloud was this: "As a sheep he was brought
to the slaughter, and as a lamb that is voiceless before its sheared, so
he does not open his mouth. 33 During his humiliation the judgment was
taken away from him. Who will tell the details of his generation? Because
his life is taken away from the earth." 34 In answer the eunuch said to
Philip: "I beg you, About whom does the prophet say this? About himself
or about some other man?" 35 Philip opened his mouth and, starting with
this Scripture, he declared to him the good news about Jesus. 36 Now as
they were going over the road, they came to a certain body of water, and
the eunuch said: "Look! A body of water; what prevents me from getting
baptized?" 37 -- 38 With that he commanded the chariot to halt, and they
both went down into the water, both Philip and the eunuch; and he baptized
him. 39 When they had come up out of the water, Jehovah's spirit quickly
led Philip away, and the eunuch did not see him anymore, for he kept going
on his way rejoicing.

of this prophecy, and who observe the things written in it; for the appointed
time is near.------- mew song----------------- Revelation 22-18 "I am bearing
witness to everyone that hears the words of the prophecy of this scroll:

the words of the scroll of this prophecy, God will take his portion away
from the trees of life and out of the holy city, things which are written
