## đź“ś Scripture Text (NET)
(The NET Bible: New English Translation. Biblical Studies Press, 2005)
(Jewish Scriptures combine chapter three and four.)
[[#Verse 01.]] (3:19) “For indeed the day is coming, burning like a furnace, and all the arrogant evildoers will be chaff. The coming day will burn them up,” says the Lord of Heaven’s Armies. “It will not leave them even a root or branch.Â
[^1][[#Verse 02.]] But for you who respect my name, the sun of vindication will rise with healing wings, and you will skip about like calves released from the stall.Â
[[#Verse 03.]] You will trample on the wicked, for they will be like ashes under the soles of your feet on the day that I am preparing,” says the Lord of Heaven’s Armies.
### Restoration through the Lord
[[#Verse 04.]] “Remember the law of my servant Moses, to whom at Horeb I gave rules and regulations for all Israel to obey.Â
[[#Verse 05.]] Look, I will send you Elijah the prophet before the great and terrible day of the Lord arrives.Â
[[#Verse 06.]] He will encourage fathers and their children to return to me, so that I will not come and strike the earth with judgment.”

- “Sun of vindication”- other translations say “sun of righteousness.”
- “healing in His wings”- many scholars look at other iconography of the time and see this metaphor connected to the “sun.” This would create the mental picture of the rays of the sun bringing warmth and healing to everything it touches.
