Question source
Malachi
Malachi describes the Lord’s coming as a refining and purifying work, like a refiner’s fire and fullers’ soap Malachi 3:2. He will purify the sons of Levi so offerings may be presented in righteousness Malachi 3:3. Then the offering of Judah and Jerusalem will be pleasing as in former days Malachi 3:4.
2But who can abide the day of his coming? and who shall stand when he appears? for he is like a refiner`s fire, and like fuller`s soap:
3and he will sit as a refiner and purifier of silver, and he will purify the sons of Levi, and refine them as gold and silver; and they shall offer to Yahweh offerings in righteousness.
4Then shall the offering of Judah and Jerusalem be pleasant to Yahweh, as in the days of old, and as in ancient years.
