Episode 19 The Marriage Supper of The Lamb

• Introduction
  • Where is the marriage supper of the Lamb?
  • Who is the bride?
  • I believe the Exodus story is a marriage proposal from Yahweh to His Chosen Israel.
• Exodus 6:6-7 Gods intensions
  • The word take in verse 7 is laqach it’s the same word that is used in the sense of taking one in marriage.
    • Genesis 11:29, Genesis 21:21
  • Exodus 19:1-18, Exodus 24:1-11 The proposal
    • Verse 5-6 The treasure here is segullah and it means it denotes the possession of valued property. Yahweh makes a proposal.
    • Verse 7-9 Israel says I do.
    • Verse 10-11 this is the mikveh which is still done today before the wedding. A ritual cleansing in preparation.
    • Verse 12-18 God comes down, the ultimate story of the bible is that God comes down to dwell with His creation in His creation, not that we go up to dwell with Him.
    • 24:3-11 Israel accepts the proposal. The Torah or the law are the wedding vows. In a Jewish betrothal is a legal binding marriage how ever they wait to consummate the wedding for up to a year to get prepared.
  • Israel called Yahweh’s wife
    • Ezekiel 16:8, Isaiah 54:4-5, Hosea 2:19-20
    • The betrothal ceremony happened at Mount Sinai but the consummation will happen at Mount Zion, or the temple mount in Jerusalem.
      • Isaiah 4:3-5
        • After Jesus returns to the earth and Judges those on the earth that persecute Israel all of those of Israel will be Holy and God will create a cloud as a huppah, just like He did at Mount Siani during the betrothal.
      • Isaiah 25:6-7
        • This is the wedding supper of the Lamb. On this mountain is Mount Zion or the temple mount in Jerusalem. The marriage supper of the Lamb is for ALL peoples. The true bride Israel and those who are grafted into the covenant. The gentile Church.
      • One new man
        • Ephesians 2:8-19
          • God’s desire is not to keep His redeemed people separate but rather make on body! Israel the first fruits of His bride and us crafted into the bride and the inheritance.
        • 1 Corinthians 12:13
        • Mathew 8:5-11
        • Luke 22:14-18
      • In conclusion
        • Israel is the original bride, we the gentiles are grafted into the covenant to the bride with them as one body. The marriage supper of the lamb will happen on the earth in Jerusalem after Jesus returns to set up His kingdom.
