Earthquakes and Meteorites

Then shall the LORD go forth, and fight against those nations, as when he fought in the day of battle. And his feet shall stand in that day upon the mount of Olives, which is before Jerusalem on the east, and the mount of Olives shall cleave in the midst thereof toward the east and toward the west, and there shall be a very great valley; and half of the mountain shall remove toward the north, and half of it toward the south. And ye shall flee to the valley of the mountains; for the valley of the mountains shall reach unto Azal: yea, ye shall flee, like as ye fled from before the earthquake in the days of Uzziah king of Judah: and the LORD my God shall come, and all the saints with thee.
(Zechariah 14:3-6) KJV

Zechariah prophesies an earthquake which is equal in severity to one that occurred in the time of Uzziah, King of Judah. The historical earthquake that this refers to was prophesied by Amos.

The End from the Beginning

Declaring the end from the beginning, and from ancient times the things that are not yet done, saying, My counsel shall stand, and I will do all my pleasure:
(Isaiah 46:10) KJV

We have to know the end from the beginning and the beginning from the end. When we understand beginning and end we can see that they are conceptually, and to a great extent physically, equivalent.

Ezekiel’s Hydrology

Then he brought me back to the door of the temple, and behold, water was issuing from below the threshold of the temple toward the east (for the temple faced east). The water was flowing down from below the south end of the threshold of the temple, south of the altar. Then he brought me out by way of the north gate and led me around on the outside to the outer gate that faces toward the east; and behold, the water was trickling out on the south side.
Going on eastward with a measuring line in his hand, the man measured a thousand cubits, and then led me through the water, and it was ankle-deep. Again he measured a thousand, and led me through the water, and it was knee-deep. Again he measured a thousand, and led me through the water, and it was waist-deep. Again he measured a thousand, and it was a river that I could not pass through, for the water had risen. It was deep enough to swim in, a river that could not be passed through.
(Ezekiel 47:1-5) ESV

This passage is about the temple in Jerusalem of the Millennial Kingdom. If a river of water issues forth from under the threshold of the temple which becomes a river too big to swim across, where does the water come from?

The Mount of Olives

Now when they drew near Jerusalem, to Bethphage and Bethany, at the Mount of Olives, He sent two of His disciples; and He said to them, “Go into the village opposite you; and as soon as you have entered it you will find a colt tied, on which no one has sat. Loose it and bring it.
(Mark 11:1-20) NKJV

The Mount of Olives will split into a northern and a southern half creating a great valley. This will is to allow water to up well from within the Earth, flowing out to the east and west from the temple in Jerusalem.

The Mount of Olives

Then shall the LORD go forth, and fight against those nations, as when he fought in the day of battle. And his feet shall stand in that day upon the mount of Olives, which is before Jerusalem on the east, and the mount of Olives shall cleave in the midst thereof toward the east and toward the west, and there shall be a very great valley; and half of the mountain shall remove toward the north, and half of it toward the south.
(Zechariah 14:3-4) KJV

We can pull together several loose threads we have which describe an old and a new hydrological system, the great deep and a new deep.

A Very High Mountain

In the five and twentieth year of our captivity, in the beginning of the year, in the tenth day of the month, in the fourteenth year after that the city was smitten, in the selfsame day the hand of the LORD was upon me, and brought me thither. In the visions of God brought he me into the land of Israel, and set me upon a very high mountain, by which was as the frame of a city on the south. And he brought me thither, and, behold, there was a man, whose appearance was like the appearance of brass, with a line of flax in his hand, and a measuring reed; and he stood in the gate. And the man said unto me, Son of man, behold with thine eyes, and hear with thine ears, and set thine heart upon all that I shall shew thee; for to the intent that I might shew them unto thee art thou brought hither: declare all that thou seest to the house of Israel.
(Ezekiel 40:1-4) KJV

Ezekiel gives us a detailed vision of the temple that will be built in the Millennial Kingdom. This ties to our context of hydrology in verse 2: In the visions of God… and set me upon a very high mountain.
