Here we have 3 parts as seen around the sanctuary:
The Lead Tribe on the South (Reuben) represents spiritual Egypt (south of Israel) the non-believing world
The Lead Tribe on the North (Dan) represents spiritual Babylon (North of Israel-both literal Babylon and Papal Rome) the Babylon of Revelation
The Lead Tribe on the West (Ephraim) represents God's people in the end patiently awaiting His return
In the text below, Egypt is mentioned.
Assyria is mentioned, which in the days of Isaiah, were ruling over Babylon. So here Assyria is used in place of Babylon.
Israel is mentioned, here used as Ephraim around the sanctuary.
In that day shall there be a highway out of Egypt to Assyria,
and the Assyrian shall come into Egypt, and the Egyptian into Assyria,
and the Egyptians shall serve with the Assyrians.
In that day shall Israel be the third with Egypt and with Assyria,
even a blessing in the midst of the land:
Whom the Lord of hosts shall bless, saying,
Blessed be Egypt my people,
and Assyria the work of my hands,
and Israel mine inheritance.
Isaiah 19:23–25
Now put it into the context of the 3 Angel's Messages....
And I saw another angel fly in the midst of heaven, having the everlasting gospel to preach unto them that dwell on the earth, and to every nation, and kindred, and tongue, and people, Saying with a loud voice, Fear God, and give glory to him; for the hour of his judgment is come:
Revelation 14:6,7
