There is a cloud of witnesses, spoken of in the Bible. "we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses." Hebrews 11 What is this Cloud of Witnesses?

Incidentally, there are more references in the Bible to clouds of this sort than to the atmospheric variety of clouds. Behold, He cometh with clouds, could well refer to the great cloud of witnesses.
We received the following letter concerning this cloud of witnesses:

At the recent Duncan, Arizona meetings I was given the following song "received" by a sister in this Kingdom way.
