The Seventh Sign Page #6

We don't have a corner on February 29th.

You don't know that's what that means.

What about that strange writing.

Have you ever seen writing like this?

And what about those horrible clippings?

Russell, I'm telling you. Hes here because of the baby!

You think David is responsible

for whats wrong with the baby?

It's that what you're saying.

Abby! Whats wrong with the baby is called

placental insufficiency!

Youre wrong! I told you, it's different!

It isnt! Nobody is trying to hurt the baby.

It's just like last time.

Abby, what do you want me to do?

You want me to kick him out?

Would that make you feel better

if I'll kick him out?

All right. Hes gone.

Ill tell him as soon as I see him.OK?

Yes? Excuse me.

Im looking for Dr. Ornstein.

Rabbi Ornstein.

You stay.

Yes.

Are you Dr. Ornstein, the linguist?

Among other things. May I help you?

I hope so. Im Abby Quinn.

Nice move, lady.

- Whatd I do?

- You touched him.

You don't touch a Hasidic rabbi

unless you're his wife.

- Are you serious?

- No. Im making it up.

It's halakah. It's the law.

- I should apologize.

- I wouldn't do that.

Just leave. He wont see you again.

I have to see him.

I need to know what is says, what language this is.

Thats Melachim.

It's Melachim.

It's a secret form of Hebrew, kinda like a code.

In the Middle Ages,

scholars used it to protect their writings.

And you know it?

I hope so. I learned it from him

when I was nine.

Then you can translate it?

I guess so. It's just

a simple replacement alphabet.

Come on. Theres a book Ill need.

Here it is.

So, what is this?

How does this translate? This date.

Thats not a date.

Of course it is. 2-29. February 29th.

- Have you ever read the Bible?

- Well, yeah.

Well, 2:
29, its a Bible heading.

Chapter and verse.

Chapter 2, verse 29.

Are you sure?

The whole page is a quote from the Bible.

Book of Joel 2:
29.

Can you read it for me?

"Even upon the menservants

and maidservants in those days...

"...I will pour out my spirit.

"And I will give portents in the heavens

and on the earth...

"...blood and fire and columns of smoke.

"The sun shall be turned to darkness,

and the moon to blood...

"...before the great and terrible day

of the Lord comes."

What is "the great and terrible day"?

When God passes judgment

on mankind for its sins.

It's about the Apocalypse.

Come on! The end of the world?

Thats what the portents are.

The sun going dark, the moon turning red.

They foretell the end of the world.

Theres a whole chain of signs,

like a countdown. The Bible is filled with them.

Earthquakes, plagues,

water turning to blood.

All kinds of weird natural disasters.

This things are to happen to tell us that God's wrath
