“2 Nevertheless the temple of God shall be in your portion, and the last (temple) shall be more glorious than the first. And the twelve tribes shall be gathered together there, and all the Gentiles, until the Most High shall send forth His salvation in the visitation of an only-begotten prophet. 3 And He shall enter into the first temple, and there shall the Lord be treated with outrage, and He shall be lifted up upon a tree. 4 And the veil of the temple shall be rent, and the Spirit of God shall pass on to the Gentiles as fire poured forth. 5 And He shall ascend from Hades and shall pass from earth into heaven. And I know how lowly He shall be upon earth, and how glorious in heaven.” #kindlequotes
Written at the time of the early days of Christianity, note “He shall be lifted up upon a tree”. No mention of a Cross. Theological reasons why have to be a tree and not a cross!
