2 Esdras 7:101

Listen to 2 Esdras 7:101
101 He said to me: "They will be free for seven days so that they may see in those seven days the things that have been foretold. After this, they will be gathered in their dwelling places."

2 Esdras 7:101 In-Context

99 "This is the order of the souls of the just, as is announced immediately, and those previously mentioned are the ways of torment that those who paid no heed will suffer."
100 I answered: "Will time, therefore, be given to souls after they are separated from the bodies to see what you told me?"
101 He said to me: "They will be free for seven days so that they may see in those seven days the things that have been foretold. After this, they will be gathered in their dwelling places."
102 I answered: "If you look on me with favor, show your servant further whether on the Judgment Day the just will be able to seek mercy for the wicked or intercede for them with the Most High.
103 Will parents be allowed to intercede for children, children for parents, siblings for each other, relatives for those close to them, faithful ones for those most dear to them?"
