Kings Fall Down Before That Son of Man
The Lord commands the kings and mighty of the earth to look and recognize the Elect One, seated on the throne of glory with the spirit of righteousness upon him. Seeing "that Son of Man" for the first time in their own presence, the kings are seized with pain "as a woman in travail," terrified because the one hidden since the beginning has now been revealed. They fall on their faces to worship and beg for mercy, but are driven from his presence into judgment, while the righteous and elect are saved to eat and dwell with that Son of Man forever, clothed in "garments of life."
