עֲלֵ֣ה ׀ רֹ֣אשׁ הַפִּסְגָּ֗ה וְשָׂ֥א עֵינֶ֛יךָ יָ֧מָּה וְצָפֹ֛נָה וְתֵימָ֥נָה וּמִזְרָ֖חָה וּרְאֵ֣ה בְעֵינֶ֑יךָ כִּי־לֹ֥א תַעֲבֹ֖ר אֶת־הַיַּרְדֵּ֥ן הַזֶּֽה׃
Sube á la cumbre del Pisga, y alza tus ojos al occidente, y al aquilón, y al mediodía, y al oriente, y ve por tus ojos: porque no pasarás este Jordán.

Some of them will even rise to the mountaintop, seizing a place appropriate only to the leaders of the generation. They pretend to be knowledgeable enough to pick among the books of ancient and early authors and instruct the public as to which book is worthy of being perused and which book is not worthy of being considered because it is full of delusional ideas, God forbid, and “Thus shall there be contempt and wrath in plenty” (Esther 1:18). Until now, the work of choosing was attributed and accessible only to one in ten generational leaders; yet now ignoramuses abuse it.
