The Challoner Revision
This eBook was produced by David Widger from etext #1581 prepared by Dennis McCarthy, Atlanta, Georgia and Tad Book, student, Pontifical North American College, Rome
"The Bible, Douay-Rheims, Book 44: Malachias" is a religious text that forms part of the Old Testament, attributed to the prophet Malachias, and is likely written in the late 5th century BC. This book is a prophetic work that conveys messages from God to the people of Israel, addressing themes of divine justice, the covenant, and the anticipated coming of Christ. Malachias, the last of the prophets, emphasizes the importance of proper worship and warns against the people's complacency and neglect of their duties to God. In "The Bible, Douay-Rheims, Book 44: Malachias," the prophet delivers a series of admonitions and prophecies primarily directed at the Jewish priests and people. He confronts them about their ingratitude and the inferior quality of their offerings, as well as their misguided marriages and disrespect for the covenant made with God. Malachias predicts the coming of an "angel" who will prepare the way for the Lord, emphasizing that true worship will shift from mere ritual to heartfelt spirituality. The book concludes with a warning of impending judgment for the wicked, while promising blessings for those who remain faithful to God and adhere to the law. The message is one of calling back to fidelity and highlighting the hope for restoration through the coming Messiah. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
