It is frequently contrasted with "former" to distinguish between two phases or events. In biblical contexts, "latter" can refer to time periods, rains, days, or even covenants, each carrying significant theological implications. Latter Days The phrase "latter days" is commonly used in prophetic literature to refer to the end times or the culmination of God's plan for history. In the Old Testament, the prophets often spoke of the "latter days" as a time when God would restore Israel and establish His kingdom. For example, in <a href="/daniel/10-14.htm">Daniel 10:14</a> , the angel tells Daniel, "Now I have come to explain to you what will happen to your people in the latter days, for the vision concerns those days." Latter Rain The "latter rain" is a term used in the agricultural context of Israel, referring to the rains that fall in the spring, crucial for the maturation of crops. Spiritually, it symbolizes a time of renewal and blessing. In <a href="/joel/2-23.htm">Joel 2:23</a> , the prophet encourages the people, "Be glad, O children of Zion, and rejoice in the LORD your God, for He has given you the autumn rains for your vindication. He sends you showers, both autumn and spring rains, as before." This imagery is often interpreted as a metaphor for spiritual revival and the outpouring of the Holy Spirit. Latter Glory The concept of "latter glory" is found in <a href="/haggai/2-9.htm">Haggai 2:9</a> , where the prophet declares, "The latter glory of this house will be greater than the former, says the LORD of Hosts. And in this place I will provide peace, declares the LORD of Hosts." This prophecy is understood to refer to the future glory of God's temple, often seen as a foreshadowing of the coming of Christ and the establishment of the Church. Latter Covenant In the New Testament, the "latter covenant" is often associated with the New Covenant established through Jesus Christ. <a href="/hebrews/8-6.htm">Hebrews 8:6</a> states, "But now Jesus has received a more excellent ministry, just as the covenant He mediates is better and is founded on better promises." This covenant is seen as superior to the "former" Mosaic Covenant, offering a more profound relationship with God through the sacrifice of Christ. Latter Times The Apostle Paul warns of the "latter times" in <a href="/1_timothy/4.htm">1 Timothy 4:1</a> , saying, "Now the Spirit expressly states that in later times some will abandon the faith to follow deceitful spirits and the teachings of demons." This passage is often interpreted as a caution against apostasy and false teachings that will arise as history progresses toward its culmination. In summary, the term "latter" in the Bible is rich with eschatological and theological significance, pointing to God's ultimate plans for His people and creation. It serves as a reminder of the hope and fulfillment found in God's promises and the anticipation of His future works.<a name="web" id="web"></a><div class="vheading2">Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary</div>1.
