Ex.12:1 Yahweh spoke to Moses and Aaron in the land of Egypt, saying,
† Egypt symbolizes the world, and the Israelites symbolize the saints. The land of Egypt also belongs to God, but now Satan is ruling it by using sinners.[1] God will raise up witnesses from among Israelites saved from Satan's reign to confirm Satan's judgment.[2] Therefore, the people of Israel are God's army that will be used to end Satan's reign of violence.[3]
Ex.12:2 "This month shall be to you the beginning of months. It shall be the first month of the year to you.
† For God's people, the month in which sins are forgiven by the blood of the Lamb is the true first month of life, and from that day life begins to have meaning. This is because God created humans to judge Satan. Therefore, only when human's life becomes a life for Satan's judgment does human become a creature that meets the purpose of the Creator who made him/her.[4]
Ex.12:3 Speak to all the congregation of Israel, saying, 'On the tenth day of this month, they shall take to them every man a lamb, according to their fathers' houses, a lamb for a household;
Ex.12:5 Your lamb shall be without blemish, a male a year old. You shall take it from the sheep, or from the goats:
† Flawless means innocent, and 1 year old male means a man of marrigeable age. The LORD Jesus was innocent[5] and died on the cross as a young bachelor.
Ex.12:6 and you shall keep it until the fourteenth day of the same month; and the whole assembly of the congregation of Israel shall kill it at evening.
† 1st month 14th is the Passover[6], and the Passover lamb is slaughtered at twilight of 1st month 14th, just before the end of 1st month 14th. The LORD Jesus died on the cross at twilight on Friday, 1st month 14th.[7] At that time, 1st month 14th was the Friday, the day before the sabbath[8], the preparation day, and 1st month 15th, the sabbath, was also the Feast of Unleavened Bread. The LORD Jesus who died at the end of 1st month 14th[9], was resurrected at dawn on Sunday, 1st month 16th, after the sabbath on Saturday, 1st month 15th.[10] When the LORD Jesus ate the Passover Supper with His disciples, not on the evening of 1st month 14th which was the original Passover Supper time[11], but on the evening immediately after the beginning of 1st month 14th, that is, at twilight on 1st month 13th. It was one day before the usual Passover Supper time.
Ex.12:7 They shall take some of the blood, and put it on the two side-posts and on the lintel, on the houses in which they shall eat it.
† Just as the LORD Jesus was crowned with thorns on His head and was nailed on His hands[12], so the blood of the lamb is put on the tops and sides of the doorframes.
Ex.12:8 They shall eat the flesh in that night, roasted with fire, and unleavened bread. They shall eat it with bitter herbs.
Ex.12:9 Don't eat it raw, nor boiled at all with water, but roasted with fire; with its head, its legs and its inner parts.
Ex.12:10 You shall let nothing of it remain until the morning; but that which remains of it until the morning you shall burn with fire.
† The reason why the lamb is roasted over the fire is that the death of the Passover lamb symbolizes the death of the LORD Jesus. The LORD Jesus suffered a painful death on the cross.[13] The sufferings of the cross are compared to burning in fire.[14] The cross is the baptism of fire.[15]
† Meat offered as a sin offering must not be eaten.[16] But why did God allow us to eat the meat of the lamb which is a type of the LORD Jesus[17] who was our sin offering?[18] Perhaps, I think it is because the sacrifice of the Passover lamb was used not only in the meaning of 'atonement' but also in the meaning of 'sealing', seeing the blood of the lamb here being put on the tops and sides of the doorframes.[19] Moreover, not all sin offerings cannot be eaten.[20] And the LORD Jesus is not only the sin offering, but also the fellowship offering.[21] The meat of the fellowship offering can be eaten.[22] There are instances when the sacrifice of the LORD Jesus was clearly symbolized by a sin offering the flesh must not be eaten[23] because its blood is brought into the Tent of Meeting to make atonement in the Holy Place.[24] However, it seems that what the Passover lamb symbolizes here is the 'passover from judgment'[25] through the 'redemption'[26] of the LORD Jesus[27], not just the 'atonement'[28] itself.
† When we think of the blood of the Passover lamb in the meaning of 'sealing', 'sealing' is the 'distinction' that allows us to survive in 'the judgment of death' that covers over the whole earth, so the Passover lamb symbolizes 'life'. The flesh and blood of the LORD Jesus, symbolized by the flesh and blood of the Passover lamb, become the life that saves us from death. In this way, the Passover lamb[29] can also be expressed as the tree of life.[30]
† The LORD Jesus who is the Word, became flesh.[31] The flesh of the LORD Jesus symbolizes the Word[32], and the blood of the LORD Jesus symbolizes the water of life[33], that is, God the Holy Spirit.[34] To eat the flesh of the LORD Jesus means to receive the word of God[35], and to drink the blood of the LORD Jesus means to receive God the Holy Spirit. That is why, despite the Old Testament saying not to drink blood[36], the LORD Jesus said to drink His blood.[37] This word does not mean to drink the fleshly blood that comes out of the flesh of the LORD Jesus.[38] This word means to drink the love of God contained in the blood of the cross[39], and this love can only be drunk through God the Holy Spirit.[40] Just as they escaped judgment by putting a seal on a doorframe with the blood of the lamb, so God also seals us with God the Holy Spirit so that we can escape judgment.[41] To receive God the Holy Spirit who is our seal[42] is to drink the blood of the LORD Jesus.[43]
Ex.12:11 This is how you shall eat it: with your loins girded, your shoes on your feet, and your staff in your hand; and you shall eat it in haste: it is Yahweh's Passover.
† Originally, both Egyptians and Israelites are under sin[44], so when God strikes all the firstborn children in Egypt, the judgment cannot be avoided because they are Israelites. Even though they are the same sinners, if God judges some and passes judgment on others, God's justice cannot be revealed.[45] The only reason the firstborn son of the house of Israel did not die is that the Lamb died in his place. The reason why the death of the lamb only made the firstborn of the house of Israel pass from death is that only the house of Israel put the blood of the lamb on doorframes.[46] It means that only Israelites confessed their faith.[47]
† Since the LORD Jesus was proven innocent through His resurrection[48], it was finally confirmed that the atonement is possible with the blood of the LORD Jesus.[49] If the LORD Jesus was not resurrected, it means that He did not overcome death. To say that the LORD Jesus did not overcome death means that He did not overcome sin[50], and to say that He did not overcome sin means that He did not keep the commandments. The blood of sinners cannot atone for sins.[51] If the LORD Jesus had not been resurrected, the blood of the LORD Jesus could not have atoned for sins.[52] But by the resurrection[53], the LORD Jesus proved His innocence.[54] Although the forgiveness of sins through the blood of the LORD Jesus was finally confirmed by His resurrection, the LORD Jesus has not yet executed judgement on Satan. This is because the commandments have not yet been established as the basis of judgment.[55] In order for the commandments to be established as the basis of judgment[56], the truthfulness of the commandments must first be proven through the appointed number of martyr witnesses.[57]
† Just because Israel passed over death by the blood of the lamb, salvation for them is not over. Even though Pharaoh's heart has been shattered by the death of his firstborn son, Pharaoh is still alive and Israel is still within Pharaoh's sphere of attack.[58] Pharaoh is holding back for a while because his firstborn son who is the chief of his strenth, has died[59], but after a while Pharaoh's army will soon pursue Israel.[60] Therefore, even if it is an escape from Satan's grasp at the cost of the blood of the LORD Jesus, that escape is never be easy.
† The sins of Israel were forgiven because the LORD Jesus, the Lamb, was rejected by the Father on behalf of Israel.[61] Because the LORD Jesus paid the wages of sins for Israel[62], the wages of sins[63] which Israel had to pay, was removed from Israel.[64] Since our sins have been forgiven through the sacrifice of the LORD Jesus, we are no longer slaves to sin[65], and because we are not slaves to sin[66], death cannot have dominion over us[67], and because death cannot control us, we are freed from Satan who holds the power of death.[68]
† The Saints are no longer slaves of Satan.[69] Since the saints have been freed from slavery, Satan can no longer claim dominion over them.[70] However, a believer who has received forgiveness of sins may return to slavery of sin again[71], if he/she does not obey God the Holy Spirit.[72] And Satan is fiercely attacking the saints who have been freed from sin to corrupt them back into slavery to sin.[73] If a believer becomes a slave to sin again, the believer will be brought under the control of Satan again[74], and Satan will try to claim authority over the believer again.[75]
† Therefore, Israel must eat the meat of the lamb hastily and get out of Pharaoh's sphere of attack quickly. The saints who have received the forgiveness of sins through the blood of the LORD Jesus must quickly escape the realm of Satan and reach the realm of God the Holy Spirit.[76] The place typified as the domain of the reign of God the Holy Spirit to which the people of Israel must reach, is across the Red Sea. In the sense of 'guiding', the pillar of cloud also symbolizes the reign of God the Holy Spirit to some extent[77], but unless the Israelites cross the Red Sea, Satan's army of darkness will not stop pursuing the Israelites.
† Salvation is not over just because believers receive the forgiveness of sins through the blood of the LORD Jesus and can come to God. Even though his head is broken[78], Satan is still alive and the saints are still within the sphere of Satan's attack. Judgment cannot be made by the commandments until the commandments are established as the basis of judgment.[79] Unless the judgment is made on those who break the commandments, the oppression of Satan who is breaking the commandments will still continue. In order to completely put an end to the oppression of Satan, the truthfulness of the commandments must be proved through the resurrection and the transformation of the martyr witnesses, and the commandments must be established as the basis of judgment. Knowing this, Satan deceives[80] or temps[81] the saints with his dark army[82], preventing them from coming closer to the LORD Jesus.[83]
† Only the LORD Jesus is life.[84] If we do not receive the life, we cannot overcome sin[85] and therefore cannot be resurrected or transformed.[86] The LORD Jesus gives His life to the saints[87] through God the Holy Spirit.[88] God the Holy Spirit is the truth.[89] Only through the truth can we abide in the life of the LORD Jesus.[90] Without the truth, we cannot overcome the temptation of sin.[91] Therefore, Satan tries to deceive the saints with his[92] corruted[93] false truth[94] so that they cannot receive the true truth.[95]
† The Red Sea primarily symbolizes the sea of glass.[96] Only the saints who have been resurrected or transformed and have been clothed with[97] the spiritual bodies[98], will be able to pass through the sea of glass. The fact that the martyr witnesses were resurrected and transformed means that the truthfulness of the commandments has been proven, and it means that the commandments have been established as the basis for judgment. Therefore, when the 7th trumpet is sounded and the resurrected or transformed martyrs come out to cross the Red Sea, that is, the sea of glass, Satan can no longer be alive.[99] That is why Satan is chasing after the saints who have escaped from Egypt. After the saints are resurrected and caught up into the clouds in the air[100], 7 plagues are poured out on the earth[101] and the judgment against Satan fraudswarms begins to be executed.[102]
† The Red Sea secondarily symbolizes the baptism of God the Holy Spirit.[103] Only the saints who have passed through the Red Sea will escape from Pharaoh's sphere of attack. Only those who have gone through the baptism of God the Holy Spirit will be freed from the Satan's sphere of attack. Because only those who have received God the Holy Spirit can overcome sin[104], only those who have gone through the baptism of God the Holy Spirit can escape from Satan's oppression through sin. Until the saints go through the baptism of God the Holy Spirit, even if they receive the forgiveness of sins, they are still suffering from the temptation of sin and the deception of lies because the army of Satan is pursuing them. Baptism is an upheaval in which I who have lived for myself, die[105] and be raised again as I who live for the LORD Jesus.[106] When I lived for myself[107], the temptations and deceptions of sin always followed me.[108] But when I live for the LORD Jesus[109], I do not even have time to be attacked by them[110] because I get busy[111] with other kinds of sufferings.[112]
† The reason we hastily eat the Passover lamb and escape Satan's sphere of attack is that even after we are forgiven and freed from our sins by the blood of the LORD Jesus, Satan is persistently pursuing us and trying to return us to the slavery of sin.[113] And the reason, is to confirm Satan's judgment by breaking away from Satan's deceptions[114], receiving the baptism of God the Holy Spirit[115], overcoming sin[116], and being resurrected or transformed.[117]
Ex.12:12 For I will go through the land of Egypt in that night, and will strike all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, both man and animal. Against all the gods of Egypt I will execute judgments: I am Yahweh.
† The firstborn son is the beginning of his father's strength.[118] To kill all the firstborn means to destroy the beginning of his strength.[119] The reason God destroys the beginning of Satan's strength is because Satan does not let Israel who is the firstborn of God, go.[120]
† God rules His creation world by love, the commandments.[121] It means that the strength the Creator exerts over His creatures[122], begins from the commandments of love.[123] Although the Creator is omnipotent, He rules His creation world by His commandments of love[124], not oppresses by force.[125] Therefore in the creation world, the power of God the Creator is contained in the commandments, that is, love.[126] In other words, the commandments are the means by which God the Creator influences His creatures. Just as 'heart' is conveyed through the means of 'gift', the love of the Creator for His creatures, is revealed in the creation world through the means of the commandments.[127] In order for the Creator's love to be fully communicated to His creatures, therefore, the truthfulness of the commandments which are the means of conveying the love of the Creator, must first be proven.[128] And God is willing to prove the truthfulness of the commandments through Israel.[129] (Now the saints in Christ are Israel.[130]) Since God's influence, God's strength, toward His creatures is fully fixed in the creation world through Israel, Israel is God's firstborn. Israel is the channel through whom the Creator maintains His strength, His commandments, toward His creatures.[131]
† Satan claims that God's love and justice, who gave His creatures the commandments that creatures cannot keep[132], are false.[133] Satan claims that reign by the commandments[134] that cannot be kept[135] is unjust.[136] Satan feared that his head would be broken through the Seed of a woman.[137] So Satan set up secular state powers, the beasts[138], to try to control the people of Israel by force, so that Israel who is the way for the Seed of a woman to come, could not fulfill the reign of the commandments.[139] In order to block the way for the Seed of a woman to come through Israel, Satan was not going to let Israel go.
† When the Seed of a woman comes, the forgiveness of sins will be achieved through the Seed of a woman[140], so Israel will be freed from the slavery of sin and establish the reign of the commandments.[141] When Israel whose sins are forgiven by the blood of the LORD Jesus, receives God the Holy Spirit, from the standpoint of Satan, the result became uncontrollable. To be released from slavery to sin means to be freed from death[142], and to cut off the influence of Satan who had enslaved Israel through death.[143]
† By the resurrection of the Seed of a woman from the dead[144], it was proved that a human can keep the commandments and overcome death[145], even though he/she was clothed with the cursed body in which the sinful desires arose.[146] The truthfulness of the commandments has been proven.[147] This is not the end. Through the atonement of the LORD Jesus who is the Seed of a woman, the forgiveness of sins was accomplished and the way for God the Holy Spirit to come to the redeemed saints was opened.[148] As a result, among the saints who have received God the Holy Spirit[149], the firstfruits that will overcome death and be resurrected or transformed, will come out countlessly following the Seed of a woman.[150] Therefore, the resurrection of the Last Adam which at first glance seems insignificant, is the complete destruction of Satan.[151] This is the breaking of Satan's head, the striking down the beginning of Satan's strength, and the killing the firstborn of Satan. Now, Satan has few days left to live.[152]
Ex.12:13 The blood shall be to you for a token on the houses where you are: and when I see the blood, I will pass over you, and there shall no plague be on you to destroy you, when I strike the land of Egypt.
† The only reason Israel can avoid plagues is because of the blood, not because of Israel's righteousness or merit.[153] The reason the saints can avoid the judgment is only because of the sealing of God the Holy Spirit[154], not because of the saints' righteousness or merits.[155] The saints cannot live a righteous life on their own.[156] Only when we obey the reign of God the Holy Spirit can we live a righteous life.[157] In order for the saints to live a righteous life, they have no choice but to submit to God the Holy Spirit.[158] The sealed firstfruits[159] who are redeemed from among men and offered to God and the Lamb in the last days[160], are those who completely submit to the guidance of God the Holy Spirit.[161]
Ex.12:14 This day shall be to you for a memorial, and you shall keep it a feast to Yahweh: throughout your generations you shall keep it a feast by an ordinance forever.
† The Passover signifies the atonement of the cross. It means that the atonement of the cross is the reality, and the Passover is just a shadow.[162] When reality comes, the shadow is no longer needed.[163] The Passover is the shadow given to us to accept the atonement of the Son when the atonement event of the cross actually takes place. Therefore, those who do not accept the actual redemption on the cross, do not keep the Passover, no matter how hard they keep the ordinances of the shadow. To keep the Passover forever means, accordingly, to accept the atonement symbolized by the Passover and to remember that love forever[164], not to commemorate a specific day repeatedly.
† Since the redemption of the cross symbolized by the Passover, was actually accomplished, the Passover which was the shadow, was absorbed into faith in the LORD Jesus who accomplished the redemption on the cross.[165] For that reason, we now keep the Passover by believing and accepting the redemption of the Son.[166] However, since we kept the Passover as an expression of our faith in the atonement of the Son, not believed the atonement to keep the Passover, so the expression that we keep the Passover by accepting the atonement of the Son, is strictly speaking, wrong. This is because the expression of reality and shadow are reversed.
† The saints should be moved by God's love which He proved through the atonement on the cross, everyday.[167] The saints must never forget the love of the cross for even a single moment.[168] The atonement of the cross is not a love that should be remembered only on certain days. The love of the Creator, demonstrated through the atonement on the cross, will remain in the memory of creatures forever.[169] For the saints, every moment of every day is the Passover.[170]
Ex.12:51 It happened the same day, that Yahweh brought the children of Israel out of the land of Egypt by their hosts.
† As a slave to sin, he/she had no power to fight and no reason to fight when he/she lived under the oppression of Satan[171], but when he/she is redeemed by the blood of the LORD Jesus, he/she gets enemies to fight and a mission to defeat the enemies.[172] In other words, he/she becomes a soldeir.[173] He/She cannot stop fighting just because he/she does not want to fight.[174] This is because Satan attacks without asking to kill us who have become his enemies.[175] If we do not fight, we will only die.[176] We must overcome Satan's attack to bring us down into slavery to sin[177] and prove the truthfulness of the commandments by being resurrected and transformed.[178]
1Cor.5:7 Purge out the old yeast, that you may be a new lump, even as you are unleavened. For indeed Christ, our Passover, has been sacrificed in our place.
† The LORD Jesus is the Passover Lamb.[179]
Rev.5:11 I saw, and I heard something like a voice of many angels around the throne, the living creatures, and the elders; and the number of them was ten thousands of ten thousands, and thousands of thousands;
Rev.5:12 saying with a loud voice, "Worthy is the Lamb who has been killed to receive the power, riches, wisdom, might, honor, glory, and blessing!"
Rev.5:13 I heard every created thing which is in heaven, on the earth, under the earth, on the sea, and everything in them, saying, "To him who sits on the throne, and to the Lamb be the blessing, the honor, the glory, and the dominion, forever and ever! Amen."
Rev.5:14 The four living creatures said, "Amen!" The elders fell down and worshiped.
† The LORD Jesus is the Lamb who was slain and the Creator[180] who is praised and worshiped by all the creatures He[181] Himself[182] has made.[183] Because the Lamb is God the Creator, He receives from His creatures the worship that only God the Creator deserves.[184] Since the Lamb is God the Creator, creatures must keep the 10 commandments[185] also of the Lamb.[186]
B. Feast of Unleavened Bread: Laid in a Tomb
Ex.12:17 You shall observe the feast of unleavened bread; for in this same day have I brought your hosts out of the land of Egypt: therefore shall you observe this day throughout your generations by an ordinance forever.
Ex.12:18 In the first month, on the fourteenth day of the month at evening, you shall eat unleavened bread, until the twenty first day of the month at evening.
† At the end of 1st month 14th, the Passover lamb is slaughtered at twighlight.[187] After that, as soon as the sun goes down, 1st month 15th begins immediately. The Feast of Unleavened Bread follows the Passover for 7 days from 1st month 15th to 1st month 21st. From the evening of the 14th to the evening of the 21st, dinner is 8 times. By the way, when God said to eat unleavened bread for 7 days instead of 8[188], it means to count 7 days from 1st month 15th, the Feast of Unleavened Bread. Since the Feast of Unleavened Bread which is immediately after the beginning of 1st month 15th, is directly connected to the evening of the Passover which is just before the end of 1st month 14th, God told us to eat unleavened bread from the evening of 1st month 14th. The evening of 1st month 14th marks the end of the Passover and the beginning of the Feast of Unleavened Bread.
Lev.23:5 In the first month, on the fourteenth day of the month at even, is Yahweh's Passover.
Lev.23:6 On the fifteenth day of the same month is the feast of unleavened bread to Yahweh: seven days you shall eat unleavened bread.
† The LORD Jesus died at twilight, just before the end of 1st month 14th, and immediately after that, the Feast of Unleavened Bread began on 1st month 15th.
Mark14:1 It was now two days before the feast of the Passover and the unleavened bread, and the chief priests and the scribes sought how they might sieze him by deception, and kill him.
† The day after the Passover is the Feast of Unleavened Bread. Passover and Feast of Unleavened Bread are connected. The LORD Jesus died on the cross at twilight on Friday, the evening of the Passover on 1st month 14th.
C. Feast of Firstfruits: Resurrection of the LORD Jesus
Lev.23:10 Speak to the children of Israel, and tell them, When you are come into the land which I give to you, and shall reap the harvest of it, then you shall bring the sheaf of the first fruits of your harvest to the priest:
Lev.23:11 and he shall wave the sheaf before Yahweh, to be accepted for you: on the next day after the Sabbath the priest shall wave it.
† Those who overcome sin and are resurrected or transformed[189], are called the sons[190], the firstfruits. There are the firstfruits of those who have fallen asleep[191], those who have the firstfruits of the Spirit[192], and those who are redeemed from among men.[193] The firstfruits are harvested 3 times.[194] The Feast of Firstfruits is the time when the 1st firstfruits are harvested. The Feast of Firstfruits is the day after the sabbath during the Feast of Unleavened Bread.
† The LORD Jesus died at twilight on 1st month 14th, the time of slaughter the Passover lamb. When the LORD Jesus died on the cross, it was at twilight on Friday and just before the beginning of the sabbath which was the 7th day. Since the 6th hour of this age is noon 12pm now, the LORD Jesus was crucified before 12pm in modern time and died around 3pm, that is, at twilight.[195] Unlike now in 2019, in this era, the day was counted from after the sun went down. From Thursday evening to Friday evening is the 6th day.[196] From Friday evening to Saturday evening is the 7th day, the sabbath. From Saturday evening to Sunday evening is the 1st day. The LORD Jesus was resurrected early in the morning of the 1st day, after the 1st night over. The LORD Jesus was in the tomb from the beginning of the 7th day, passed the night of the 7th, passed the day of the 7th, passed the night of the 1st, and was resurrected at the dawn of the 1st day. He was in the tomb from Friday night to Sunday dawn. He was resurrected Sunday dawn, the day after the sabbath.[197] The LORD Jesus died at twilight, at the end of the 6th day on 1st month 14th, just before the beginning of the sabbath on 1st month 15th. And He was resurrected at the dawn of the 1st day on 1st month 16th, after the sabbath on 1st month 15th ended, after the 1st night on 1st month 16th ended. He died at the end of the 6th day, passed the 7th night and day, passed the 1st night, and was resurrected at the dawn of the 1st day. The LORD Jesus was resurrected on the 3rd day, that is, 2 days later. The LORD Jesus is the firstfruits of the Feast of Firstfruits. The LORD Jesus is the first resurrected Adam, the firstfruits of those who have fallen asleep. Only the innocent can be resurrected.[198] So, to say that the LORD Jesus was the first to be resurrected means that He was the first to completely overcome sin.
† The LORD Jesus, the Word, came to Hades as the Last Adam[199] in a cursed body.[200] As the Last Adam, the LORD Jesus also put on the body from which thorns and thistles, the sinful desires, rise.[201] This means that the LORD Jesus must have felt the same lust for sins as we do.[202] So the LORD Jesus can be an example for us to follow.[203] But unlike the LORD Jesus who is the Word[204], we must receive the word of God.[205] Just as God the Son, the Word, overcame sin through God the Holy Spirit[206], when we receive the word of God, we can overcome sin[207] through God the Holy Spirit.[208] If we overcome sin like the LORD Jesus[209], we will be resurrected like the LORD Jesus.[210] The LORD Jesus never sinned.[211] He was always filled with God the Holy Spirit. However, in order for us who have sinned to receive God the Holy Spirit[212], we must first receive the forgiveness of sins through the blood of the LORD Jesus.[213]
1Cor.15:20 But now Christ has been raised from the dead. He became the first fruits of those who are asleep.
1Cor.15:21 For since death came by man, the resurrection of the dead also came by man.
1Cor.15:22 For as in Adam all die, so also in Christ all will be made alive.
† The LORD Jesus came as an adam, died as an adam, and was raised as an adam. And now, the LORD Jesus, clothed in a resurrected body[214], a spiritual body[215], is seated on the true throne in the heaven of angels.[216] It cannot be affirmed[217] that when we are resurrected we are clothed[218] with[219] angelic[220] bodies[221], but anyway when we are resurrected[222] we become like[223] angels.[224] Because Adam died and became slave to sin, the LORD Jesus came as Adam to save Adam. The LORD Jesus crushed Satan with the 'death' of the cross[225], and raised Adam who was under death, to life through the 'atonement' of the cross. The LORD Jesus freed Adam from the slavery of sin and Satan, the ruler under sin.[226] Had the Son come as an angel[227], He could not have been Adam's mediator[228], but since God the Son became Adam, He could be the mediator between God and Adam.[229]
† If the LORD Jesus had come as an angel, He would not have put on a cursed soulish flesh from which thorns and thistles arise.[230] Accordingly, the LORD Jesus would not have suffered because of His weak, earthen flesh[231], nor would He have suffered the temptation that humans suffer. Nor would the LORD Jesus have been an example to humans in keeping the commandments, since He would not have had to contend with sin as do humans.[232] If He had come as an angel, there would have been no separation of the soul from the earthen flesh[233], and there would have been no resurrection to a spiritual body[234], so He could not have proved the truthfulness of the commandments.[235] Also, since He would have overcome sin as an angel, not as a human, He could not have become Adam's redeeming relative[236], He would not have been able to restore the inheritance that humans had been taken away, that is, the management proxy[237] over the earth.[238]
D. Feast of Weeks: Coming of God the Holy Spirit
Lev.23:15 You shall count to you from the next day after the Sabbath, from the day that you brought the sheaf of the wave-offering; seven Sabbaths shall there be complete:
Lev.23:16 even to the next day after the seventh Sabbath shall you number fifty days; and you shall offer a new meal-offering to Yahweh.
† The day after the sabbath after 7 sabbaths including the sabbath on the day before the Feast of Firstfruits which is the day after the sabbath, is the Feast of Weeks. In other words, when the Feast of Firstfruits which is the first day after the sabbath, is counted as 1st day, 0th day is the 1st sabbath, and the 49th day is the 7th sabbath. The next day, the 50th day, the day after the sabbath, is the Pentecost.
Ex.34:22 You shall observe the feast of weeks with the first fruits of wheat harvest, and the feast of harvest at the year's end.
† The Pentecost, the 50th day, was also called the Feast of Weeks because 49 days had to pass. This day was the day of harvesting the firstfruits.[239]
Acts2:1 Now when the day of Pentecost had come, they were all with one accord in one place.
Acts2:2 Suddenly there came from the sky a sound like the rushing of a mighty wind, and it filled all the house where they were sitting.
Acts2:3 Tongues like fire appeared and were distributed to them, and it sat on each one of them.
Acts2:4 They were all filled with the Holy Spirit, and began to speak with other languages, as the Spirit gave them the ability to speak.
Rom.8:23 Not only so, but ourselves also, who have the first fruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, waiting for adoption, the redemption of our body.
† Just as the firstfruits were harvested on the day of Pentecost and new grain was offered, on the day of Pentecost, the saints who have the firstfruits of the Spirit, are brought forth.
E. Feast of Trumpets: 2nd Coming of the LORD Jesus
Lev.23:24 Speak to the children of Israel, saying, In the seventh month, on the first day of the month, shall be a solemn rest to you, a memorial of blowing of trumpets, a holy convocation.
† The Israelites go around the city once a day and sound their trumpets once. They sound their trumpets 6 times in 6 days and go around the city 7 times on the 7th day.[240] Because the 7th trumpet contains 7 plagues[241], they go around the city 7 times. Just as the city of Jericho fell after the sound of the 7th trumpets, Babylon the Great will fall when the 7th trumpet is sounded.[242]
Rev.8:1 When he opened the seventh seal, there followed a silence in heaven for about half an hour.
Rev.8:2 I saw the seven angels who stand before God, and seven trumpets were given to them.
† When the LORD Jesus comes again, the trumpets will be sounded.
Rev.11:15 The seventh angel sounded, and great voices in heaven followed, saying, "The kingdom of the world has become the Kingdom of our Lord, and of his Christ. He will reign forever and ever!"
† When the last trumpet, the 7th trumpet, is sounded, the LORD Jesus who comes down to the air, catch up the resurrected and transformed saints into the air.[243] The truthfulness of the commandments is proved because the appointed number of saints are resurrected and transformed.[244] Since the creatures are fully convinced that the commandments are worthy to be the basis of judgment[245], they can love God without question even if God burns the criminals who are breaking the commandments.[246] It becomes the circumstance in which God can judge the evil creatures that are not willing to stop trampling on their neighbors, while making sure that the creatures who obey God would no longer turn away from God. Therefore, the judgment against the criminals who break the commandments and trample their neighbors is executed immediately.[247] God pours out 7 plagues on the sinners on the earth[248] and confines Satan fraudswarms in the abyss.[249]
F. Day of Atonement: Blotting out sin and Confining Azazel
Lev.25:9 Then shall you send abroad the loud trumpet on the tenth day of the seventh month; in the day of atonement shall you send abroad the trumpet throughout all your land.
Lev.25:10 You shall make the fiftieth year holy, and proclaim liberty throughout the land to all the inhabitants of it: it shall be a jubilee to you; and you shall return every man to his possession, and you shall return every man to his family.
† In the year of Jubilee, all slaves are freed from human masters and return to the original Owner, God, and become God's slaves again.[250] And the land that was sold is returned to the one whom God had originally entrusted to.[251] In this way, on the Day of Atonement, resurrection and transformation take place, and the bodies that were slaves to sin and ruled by Satan are set free from the slavery of sin forever.
† When God the Holy Spirit comes upon in our flesh[252], even though the sinful desires rise from our flesh[253], as long as God the Holy Spirit is filled with our flesh, we are freed from slavery of sin.[254] But we cannot guarantee that we can maintain such a state forever.[255] However, when the saints are resurrected or transformed, they will be clothed with a body without sinful desires, so the saints who are clothed with a spiritual body after their free will is perfected through the love of the cross, will never sin. It means they do not die forever.[256] In a narrow sense, it seems to apply only to humans, but in a broader sense, even angels who were confined in the possibility to sin and were enslaved to the danger of sinning, are perfected so that they do not sin forever and are completely freed from the possibility to sin. Even after 1000 years, when Satan who has been imprisoned in the abyss is realeased for a short time[257], none of the royal priests who are clothed with a spiritual body and have ruled the new heaven and the new earth in New Jerusalem, sin. However, most of the people outside the city who have never undergone Satan's deceit and have never overcome sin, will be deceived.[258]
† The LORD Jesus, God the Creator, will rule over His creatures as the King of creatures in the state of being still clothed with a spiritual body[259], even after He imprisoned Satan fraudswarms in the abyss.[260] The LORD Jesus will give a new inheritance to the saints who have become slaves to sin[261] and have been deprived of their inheritance by Satan.[262] To all the martyr witnesses[263] who chose to suffer in this life[264] to fight Satan in order to accomplish the will of the Son[265], the Son will entrust each of them His dominion under His sovereignty[266] according to their measure of loyalty.[267]
Luke4:1 Jesus, full of the Holy Spirit, returned from the Jordan, and was led by the Spirit into the wilderness
Luke4:2 for forty days, being tempted by the devil. He ate nothing in those days. Afterward, when they were completed, he was hungry.
† The LORD Jesus goes out into the desert to be tempted by Satan. This scene is a preview of the Day of Atonement when the LORD Jesus imprison the Azazel Satan into the desert abyss. The LORD Jesus is worthy to judge Satan. The LORD Jesus is the suitable man for this task.[268] The LORD Jesus exposes Satan's sinfulness by first proving Satan's claims to be lies in order to reveal that His judgment is just. Satan claims that the commandments are laws that creatures cannot keep. Satan accuses God of being unjust[269], who judges for failing to keep the unreasonable commandments.[270] Satan is taking God's name in vain, claiming that God is a liar and a murderer who gives His creatures laws that creatures cannot keep and kills His creatures if they cannot keep the laws that they cannot keep in the first place.[271] But Satan is the liar[272], and Satan is the murderer who deceives his neighbor creatures with his lies and cause them to depart from the life of God and die.[273]
† In order to imprison Azazel Satan in the desert abyss, Satan's claims must first be proven to be false. This is because if God judges Satan without any proof, creatures may misunderstand that God killed Satan to silence him. Therefore, only the suitable person appointed for the task, the person worthy of the task, who proves Satan's claims to be false by keeping the commandments, can imprison Satan in the abyss. The LORD Jesus overcame Satan's deceptions and kept the commandments perfectly while in the flesh with the sinful desires.[274] Since the LORD Jesus has proven that Satan's claims that the commandments cannot be kept are lies, so Satan who breaks the commandments deserves to be judged. When the last firstfruits, that is, the firstfruits redeemed from among men, come out[275], and the appointed number of martyr witnesses is completed[276], the LORD Jesus will imprison Satan fraudswarms in the abyss[277] and establish the 1000-year kingdom.[278] The appointed number of martyr witnesses are those who are appointed for the task, who will prove justifiable grounds for imprisoning Satan in the abyss, following the example of the LORD Jesus who is the one appointed for the task.

| Addition | ||
| One might view the Day of Atonement as some period after the sounding of the 7th trumpet, rather than the time when the 7th trumpet is sounded. If that is the case, the resurrection and the transformation will fall under the Feast of Trumpets, and the Day of Atonement can be viewed as a feast after the resurrection and the transformation. However, as the 7th trumpet contains the 7 plagues just as the 7th seal contains the 7 trumpets, the time of pouring out the 7 plagues can also be seen as the period within the 7th trumpet. It is not easy to distinguish the 7th trumpet from the Day of Atonement because, during the pouring out the 7 plagues on the earth, the atonement for the creation world is fufilled through the blood of the Son at the true sanctuary in the heaven of angels, and thus the free will of the creatures is perfected.[302] In other words, the free will of the creatures, especially the angels, is perfected because they no longer have doubts about God as they see the resurrection and the transformation of the saints and come to realize the truthfulness of God's justice and love[303]. Therefore, it is not easy to divide the period of the 7th trumpet, when the resurrection and the transformation occur, and the period of the Day of Atonement, when the free will of creatures is completed. Also, the time of the Day of Atonement, when the LORD Jesus who came only to the air[304] before He pours out the 7 plagues on the earth and caught the saints up into the air[305], finally comes to the earth to judge the earth[306] and to imprison Satan fraudswarms in the abyss, can be viewed as part of the 2nd Coming of the LORD Jesus. Therefore, it seems difficult to say that the Day of Atonement on 7th month 10th is completely separated from the Feast of Trumpets on 7th month 1st. (There may be an opinion that the Day of Atonement is not the time of the 7th trumpet when the resurrection and the transformation actually take place, but the time of the 6th seal when God the Holy Spirit who came as the latter rain[307] becomes the seal of the 144000 firstfruits.[308] Even if the resurrection and the transformation have not actually occurred yet, if anyone sees that the appointed number of martyr witnesses who will be resurrected and transformed has already been confirmed through the sealing of God the Holy Spirit, there may be such an opinion.) |

② God the Holy Spirit comes in the name of the Son.
John7:37 Now on the last and greatest day of the feast, Jesus stood and cried out, "If anyone is thirsty, let him come to me and drink!
John7:38 He who believes in me, as the Scripture has said, from within him will flow rivers of living water."
John7:39 But he said this about the Spirit, which those believing in him were to receive. For the Holy Spirit was not yet given, because Jesus wasn't yet glorified.
† The streams of living water from the LORD Jesus mean God the Holy Spirit. These rivers of living water were also symbolized by the blood of the LORD Jesus.[309] It means that the blood of the LORD Jesus which we must drink, means God the Holy Spirit. The 1st covenant was established with the blood of animals, but the new covenant was established with the blood of the Son.[310] The 1st covenant, established with the blood of animals, is engraved on stone tablets, but the new covenant, established with the blood of the Son, is engraved on the tablets of the heart.[311] In other words, it means that God the Holy Spirit comes[312] and becomes the new covenant for the saints whose sins are forgiven by the blood of the LORD Jesus.[313]
Heb.8:6 But now he has obtained a more excellent ministry, by so much as he is also the mediator of a better covenant, which has been enacted on better promises.
† Moses was the mediator of the 1st covenant made through the angel, but the mediator of the new covenant made through God the Holy Spirit is the Son. The 1st covenant was confirmed with the blood of animals, but the new covenant was confirmed with the blood of the Son. The 1st covenant is the law of condemnation, but the new covenant is the law of salvation.[314]
Heb.8:7 For if that first covenant had been faultless, then no place would have been sought for a second.
Heb.8:8 For finding fault with them, he said, "Behold, the days come," says the Lord, "That I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah;
Heb.8:9 Not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers, In the day that I took them by the hand to lead them out of the land of Egypt; For they didn't continue in my covenant, And I disregarded them," says the Lord.
† The 1st covenant was a covenant that made us realize our sins[315] and made us wait for the Son who would fulfill the new covenant.[316]
Heb.8:10 "For this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel. After those days," says the Lord; "I will put my laws into their mind, I will also write them on their heart. I will be to them a God, And they will be to me a people.
Heb.8:11 They will not teach every man his fellow citizen, Every man his brother, saying, 'Know the Lord,' For all will know me, From the least of them to the greatest of them.
Heb.8:12 For I will be merciful to their unrighteousness. I will remember their sins and lawless deeds no more."
† Through God the Holy Spirit, God's laws are written in our hearts covered with the blood of the Son, and we can overcome sin through the laws written in our hearts.[317] This is the new covenant.[318] The person who made the new covenant with God with the blood of the Son keeps the laws, so the laws can no longer condemn him/her.[319]
John14:26 But the Counselor, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, he will teach you all things, and will remind you of all that I said to you.
† God the Holy Spirit comes in the name of the Son and engraves the Son's words in our hearts[320] so that we can keep them.[321]
③ The Son is the light coming into the darkness.
John1:4 In him was life, and the life was the light of men.
† The light in the Son is the life of the creation world. Without the Son, there are no creatures that can come to life and be continued to exist.[322] Just as the living creatures of the earth live through the light of the sun, the creatures of the creation world live through the light of the Son.
John1:5 The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness hasn't overcome it.
John1:9 The true light that enlightens everyone was coming into the world.
† The Son is the light of the creation world.
John1:10 He was in the world, and the world was made through him, and the world didn't recognize him.
† The world is the darkness that does not recognize the Creator.
John3:19 This is the judgment, that the light has come into the world, and men loved the darkness rather than the light; for their works were evil.
John3:20 For everyone who does evil hates the light, and doesn't come to the light, lest his works would be exposed.
John3:21 But he who does the truth comes to the light, that his works may be revealed, that they have been done in God."
† The light illuminates the darkness. Thus, it exposes the sin of darkness. Sin must be judged. Therefore, where the light shines, the judgment of sin is confirmed.[323] The Son who is the light, came into the creation world to reveal sin and establish judgment on those who reject the Son who is the criterion of righteousness.[324]
John8:12 Again, therefore, Jesus spoke to them, saying, "I am the light of the world. He who follows me will not walk in the darkness, but will have the light of life."
† Only creatures who put away their sins revealed in the presence of the Son who is the light, gain life.[325] Those who do not put away their sins revealed by the light of the Son, but rather kill the Son and His words[326], will be judged in the end.[327]
John9:5 When I am in the world, I am the light of the world."
† The Son is the light of the world.
John12:35 Jesus therefore said to them, "Yet a little while the light is with you. Walk while you have the light, that darkness doesn't overtake you. He who walks in the darkness doesn't know where he is going.
John12:36 While you have the light, believe in the light, that you may become sons of light." Jesus said these things, and he departed and hid himself from them.
† Only those who receive the Son, that is, those who submit to the Son's reign of love, can become childern of light.[328]
John12:46 I have come as a light into the world, that whoever believes in me may not remain in the darkness.
† The place of sin against God is the realm of darkness.[329] The light, the criterion of righteousness, has come into the world where there is only darkness.
2Cor.4:6 seeing it is God who said, "Light will shine out of darkness," who has shone in our hearts, to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ.
† This light of creation means the light of the knowledge of the glory of God that the LORD Jesus who is the true light, shines.[330]
Heb.1:3 His Son is the radiance of his glory, the very image of his substance, and upholding all things by the word of his power, when he had by himself made purification for our sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high;
† The Son is the radiance of the Father's glory. The Creator's glory that the creatures could not have dared to see, the Creator Himself became a creature and showed the glory to His creatures. By His powerful word of the LORD Jesus, all things are still being sustained. It means that the LORD Jesus who made the creatures, is still maintaining their existence.[331]
1John2:9 He who says he is in the light and hates his brother, is in the darkness even until now.
1John2:10 He who loves his brother remains in the light, and there is no occasion for stumbling in him.
† The light is righteousness and keeping the commnadments.[332] Love is the fulfillment of the commandments.[333] God the Creator established the creation world on the basis of love, the commandments. God made it a sin to trample on one's neighbor.[334] Because this is the order established by the Creator in His creation world, anyone who does not love God and his/her neighbor will be thrown into the lake of fire.[335] In other words, anyone who rebels against the reign of the LORD Jesus[336] will be burned in the lake of fire.[337]
Rev.21:22 I saw no temple in it, for the Lord God, the Almighty, and the Lamb, are its temple.
Rev.21:23 The city has no need for the sun, neither of the moon, to shine, for the very glory of God illuminated it, and its lamp is the Lamb.
Rev.21:24 The nations will walk in its light. The kings of the earth bring the glory and honor of the nations into it.
Rev.21:25 Its gates will in no way be shut by day (for there will be no night there),
† God is the light. In the 1000-year kingdom, only the martyr witnesses who have been found righteous in the light[338], that is, the royal priests who have been resurrected or transformed by the better resurrection[339], the 1st resurrection[340], can enter the most holy place[341], the new Jerusalem.[342]
Rev.22:5 There will be no night, and they need no lamp light; for the Lord God will illuminate them. They will reign forever and ever.
† God is the true light.
Gen.1:3 God said, "Let there be light," and there was light.
† Sunlight is not the true light. The material light is not the true light. The Son is the true light of the creation world.[343]
Ps.36:9 For with you is the spring of life. In your light shall we see light.
† God is the life of creatures. Only those who are in the light of righteousness will see the light of the most holy place.[344]
Is.49:6 yes, he says, It is too light a thing that you should be my servant to raise up the tribes of Jacob, and to restore the preserved of Israel: I will also give you for a light to the Gentiles, that you may be my salvation to the end of the earth.
† The Son is the light of the gentiles those living in the land of the shadow of death.[345] Even if there is sunlight, the gentiles who do not know God, are in darkness. Those who have received the LORD Jesus, have received the light.[346]
Is.60:1 Arise, shine; for your light is come, and the glory of Yahweh is risen on you.
Is.60:2 For, behold, darkness shall cover the earth, and gross darkness the peoples; but Yahweh will arise on you, and his glory shall be seen on you.
Is.60:3 Nations shall come to your light, and kings to the brightness of your rising.
† Those whom God gives light become light by reflecting the light of God shining upon them.[347]
Is.60:19 The sun shall be no more your light by day; neither for brightness shall the moon give light to you: but Yahweh will be to you an everlasting light, and your God your glory.
Is.60:20 Your sun shall no more go down, neither shall your moon withdraw itself; for Yahweh will be your everlasting light, and the days of your mourning shall be ended.
† This will be done in new Jerusalem.[348] Also, it is now being fulfilled for the saints who are filled with God the Holy Spirit.[349]
④ The Son is the good shepherd.
John10:10 The thief only comes to steal, kill, and destroy. I came that they may have life, and may have it abundantly.
† Satan tries only to steal and kill and destroy his neighbors.[350] But the LORD Jesus gives life to the creatures He has made.[351] Only God the Creator who made creatures, can give them life.[352]
John10:11 I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd lays down his life for the sheep.
† The reason the creatures can love God is because God first gave for the creatures the cause to love God. Only when the creatures realize the love that God has poured out[353], the creatures begin to love God[354] through that love.[355] The creatures can keep the commandments only when they love God.[356]
⑤ The Son is the true vine and the tree of life.
John15:1 "I am the true vine, and my Father is the farmer.
† The LORD Jesus is the tree of life. Creatures live only by the life of the LORD Jesus.[357]
John11:25 Jesus said to her, "I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes in me, though he die, yet will he live.
John11:26 Whoever lives and believes in me will never die. Do you believe this?"
† Creature made through the LORD Jesus can be sustained their existence only through the LORD Jesus.[358]
John6:53 Jesus therefore said to them, "Most assuredly I tell you, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink his blood, you don't have life in yourselves.
John6:54 He who eats my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life, and I will raise him up at the last day.
John6:55 For my flesh is food indeed, and my blood is drink indeed.
† The LORD Jesus is the life of the creatures.[359] There is no way for creatures to be sustained their existence except through the LORD Jesus.[360] Only through the LORD Jesus can creatures live.[361] The reality of the tree of life is the LORD Jesus.
[1] Eph.2:1 You were made alive when you were dead in transgressions and sins, in which you once walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the powers of the air, the spirit who now works in the sons of disobedience; among whom we also all once lived in the lust of our flesh, doing the desires of the flesh and of the mind, and were by nature children of wrath, even as the rest.
[2] Eph.2:12 remember that at that time you were separate from Christ, excluded from citizenship in Israel and foreigners to the covenants of the promise, without hope and without God in the world. But now in Christ Jesus you who once were far away have been brought near through the blood of Christ.

Let all the nations be gathered together, and let the peoples be assembled: who among them can declare this, and show us former things? let them bring their witnesses, that they may be justified; or let them hear, and say, It is truth. You are my witnesses, says Yahweh, and my servant whom I have chosen; that you may know and believe me, and understand that I am he: before me there was no God formed, neither shall there be after me.

[7] Luke23:53 He took it down, and wrapped it in a linen cloth, and laid him in a tomb that was cut in stone, where no man had ever yet lain. It was the day of the Preparation, and the Sabbath was coming on.
[8] John19:31 Therefore the Jews, because it was the Preparation, so that the bodies wouldn't remain on the cross on the Sabbath (for that Sabbath was a special one), asked of Pilate that their legs might be broken, and that they might be taken away.
[9] Luke23:44 It was now about the sixth hour, and darkness came over the whole land until the ninth hour. The sun was darkened, and the veil of the temple was torn in two. Jesus, crying with a loud voice, said, "Father, into your hands I commit my spirit!" Having said this, he breathed his last.
[10] John20:1 Now on the first day of the week, Mary Magdalene went early, while it was yet dark, to the tomb, and saw the stone taken away from the tomb.

[15] Mark10:38 "You don't know what you are asking," Jesus said. "Can you drink the cup I drink or be baptized with the baptism I am baptized with?" "We can," they answered. Jesus said to them, "You will drink the cup I drink and be baptized with the baptism I am baptized with,

Therefore Jesus also, that he might sanctify the people through his own blood, suffered outside of the gate.
[18] Heb.9:11 But Christ having come as a high priest of the coming good things, through the greater and more perfect tabernacle, not made with hands, that is to say, not of this creation, nor yet through the blood of goats and calves, but through his own blood, entered in once for all into the Holy Place, having obtained eternal redemption.
[19] Ezek.9:3 The glory of the God of Israel was gone up from the cherub, whereupon it was, to the threshold of the house: and he called to the man clothed in linen, who had the writer's inkhorn by his side.Yahweh said to him, Go through the midst of the city, through the midst of Jerusalem, and set a mark on the foreheads of the men that sigh and that cry over all the abominations that are done in the midst of it. To the others he said in my hearing, Go you through the city after him, and strike: don't let your eye spare, neither have you pity; kill utterly the old man, the young man and the virgin, and little children and women; but don't come near any man on whom is the mark: and begin at my sanctuary. Then they began at the old men that were before the house.
[20] Lev.6:25 "Speak to Aaron and to his sons, saying, 'This is the law of the sin offering: in the place where the burnt offering is killed, the sin offering shall be killed before Yahweh. It is most holy. The priest who offers it for sin shall eat it. It shall be eaten in a holy place, in the court of the Tent of Meeting. Whatever shall touch its flesh shall be holy. When there is any of its blood sprinkled on a garment, you shall wash that on which it was sprinkled in a holy place. But the earthen vessel in which it is boiled shall be broken; and if it is boiled in a brazen vessel, it shall be scoured, and rinsed in water. Every male among the priests shall eat of it: it is most holy. No sin offering, of which any of the blood is brought into the Tent of Meeting to make atonement in the Holy Place, shall be eaten: it shall be burned with fire.

[23] Lev.6:30 No sin offering, of which any of the blood is brought into the Tent of Meeting to make atonement in the Holy Place, shall be eaten: it shall be burned with fire.
[24] Heb.9:12 nor yet through the blood of goats and calves, but through his own blood, entered in once for all into the Holy Place, having obtained eternal redemption.
[25] Heb.11:28 By faith, he kept the Passover, and the sprinkling of the blood, that the destroyer of the firstborn should not touch them.
[26] Matt.20:28 even as the Son of Man came not to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many."
[27] Ex.13:12 that you shall set apart to Yahweh all that opens the womb, and every firstborn which you have that comes from an animal. The males shall be Yahweh's. Every firstborn of a donkey you shall redeem with a lamb; and if you will not redeem it, then you shall break its neck; and you shall redeem all the firstborn of man among your sons. It shall be, when your son asks you in time to come, saying, 'What is this?' that you shall tell him, 'By strength of hand Yahweh brought us out from Egypt, from the house of bondage; and it happened, when Pharaoh would hardly let us go, that Yahweh killed all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, both the firstborn of man, and the firstborn of animal. Therefore I sacrifice to Yahweh all that opens the womb, being males; but all the firstborn of my sons I redeem.' It shall be for a sign on your hand, and for symbols between your eyes: for by strength of hand Yahweh brought us forth out of Egypt."
[28] Ex.29:14 But the flesh of the bull, and its skin, and its dung, you shall burn with fire outside of the camp: it is a sin-offering.
[29] Rev.5:9 They sang a new song, saying, "You are worthy to take the book, And to open its seals: For you were killed, And bought us for God with your blood, Out of every tribe, language, people, and nation, And made them kings and priests to our God, And they reign on earth."
[30] John11:25 Jesus said to her, “I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes in me, though he die, yet will he live. Whoever lives and believes in me will never die. Do you believe this?”
[31] John1:14 The Word became flesh, and lived among us. We saw his glory, such glory as of the one and only Son of the Father, full of grace and truth.
[32] John6:48 I am the bread of life. Your fathers ate the manna in the wilderness, and they died. This is the bread which comes down out of heaven, that anyone may eat of it and not die. I am the living bread which came down out of heaven. If anyone eats of this bread, he will live forever. Yes, the bread which I will give is my flesh, for the life of the world."
[33] Luke22:19 He took bread, and when he had given thanks, he broke it, and gave to them, saying, "This is my body which is given for you. Do this in memory of me." He took the cup in like manner after supper, saying, "This cup is the new covenant in my blood, that which is poured out for you.
[34] John7:37 Now on the last and greatest day of the feast, Jesus stood and cried out, "If anyone is thirsty, let him come to me and drink! He who believes in me, as the Scripture has said, from within him will flow rivers of living water." But he said this about the Spirit, which those believing in him were to receive. For the Holy Spirit was not yet given, because Jesus wasn't yet glorified.
[35] John6:67 Jesus said therefore to the twelve, "You don't also want to go away, do you?" Simon Peter answered him, "Lord, to whom would we go? You have the words of eternal life.
[36] Lev.3:17 "'It shall be a perpetual statute throughout your generations in all your dwellings, that you shall eat neither fat nor blood.'"
[37] John6:55 For my flesh is food indeed, and my blood is drink indeed. He who eats my flesh and drinks my blood lives in me, and I in him. As the living Father sent me, and I live because of the Father; so he who feeds on me, he will also live because of me.
[38] John6:52 The Jews therefore contended with one another, saying, "How can this man give us his flesh to eat?" Jesus therefore said to them, "Most assuredly I tell you, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink his blood, you don't have life in yourselves.
[39] Eph.5:2 Walk in love, even as Christ also loved you, and gave himself up for us, an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweet-smelling fragrance.
[40] Rom.5:5 and hope doesn't disappoint us, because God's love has been poured out into our hearts through the Holy Spirit who was given to us.
[41] Eph.1:13 in whom you also, having heard the word of the truth, the gospel of your salvation, -- in whom, having also believed, you were sealed with the Holy Spirit of promise,
[42] 2Cor.1:22 who also sealed us, and gave us the down payment of the Spirit in our hearts.
[43] 1Cor.12:13 For in one Spirit we were all baptized into one body, whether Jews or Greeks, whether bond or free; and were all given to drink into one Spirit.
[44] 2Chr.6:36 If they sin against you (for there is no man who doesn't sin), and you are angry with them, and deliver them to the enemy, so that they carry them away captive to a land far off or near;
[45] Rom.3:19 Now we know that whatever things the law says, it speaks to those who are under the law, that every mouth may be closed, and all the world may be brought under the judgment of God. Because by the works of the law, no flesh will be justified in his sight. For through the law comes the knowledge of sin.
[46] Ex.12:12 For I will go through the land of Egypt in that night, and will strike all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, both man and animal. Against all the gods of Egypt I will execute judgments: I am Yahweh. The blood shall be to you for a token on the houses where you are: and when I see the blood, I will pass over you, and there shall no plague be on you to destroy you, when I strike the land of Egypt.
[47] Rom.10:9 that if you will confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus, and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For with the heart, one believes unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.
[48] 1Cor.15:16 For if the dead are not raised, then Christ has not been raised either. And if Christ has not been raised, your faith is futile; you are still in your sins.
[49] Heb.9:22 According to the law, nearly everything is cleansed with blood, and apart from shedding of blood there is no remission. It was necessary therefore that the copies of the things in the heavens should be cleansed with these; but the heavenly things themselves with better sacrifices than these. For Christ hasn't entered into holy places made with hands, which are representations of the true, but into heaven itself, now to appear in the presence of God for us;
[50] 1Cor.15:54 But when this corruptible will have put on incorruption, and this mortal will have put on immortality, then what is written will happen: "Death is swallowed up in victory." "Death, where is your sting? Hades, where is your victory?" The sting of death is sin, and the power of sin is the law.
[51] Is.66:3 He who kills an ox is as he who kills a man; he who sacrifices a lamb, as he who breaks a dog's neck; he who offers an offering, [as he who offers] pig's blood; he who burns frankincense, as he who blesses an idol. Yes, they have chosen their own ways, and their soul delights in their abominations:
[52] 1Pet.1:18 knowing that you were redeemed, not with corruptible things, with silver or gold, from the useless way of life handed down from your fathers, but with precious blood, as of a lamb without spot, the blood of Christ;
[53] Rom.6:9 For we know that since Christ was raised from the dead, he cannot die again; death no longer has mastery over him.
[54] 2Cor.5:21 For him who knew no sin he made to be sin on our behalf; so that in him we might become the righteousness of God.
[55] Job1:8 Yahweh said to Satan, "Have you considered my servant, Job? For there is none like him in the earth, a blameless and an upright man, one who fears God, and turns away from evil." Then Satan answered Yahweh, and said, "Does Job fear God for nothing? Haven't you made a hedge around him, and around his house, and around all that he has, on every side? You have blessed the work of his hands, and his substance is increased in the land. But put forth your hand now, and touch all that he has, and he will renounce you to your face."
[56] Rev.11:15 The seventh angel sounded, and great voices in heaven followed, saying, "The kingdom of the world has become the Kingdom of our Lord, and of his Christ. He will reign forever and ever!" The twenty-four elders, who sit before God's throne on their thrones, fell on their faces and worshiped God, saying: "We give you thanks, Lord God, the Almighty, the one who is and who was; because you have taken your great power, and reigned. The nations were angry, and your wrath came, as did the time for the dead to be judged, and to give your servants the prophets, their reward, as well as the saints, and those who fear your name, the small and the great; and to destroy those who destroy the earth."
[57] Rev.6:9 When he opened the fifth seal, I saw underneath the altar the souls of those who had been killed for the Word of God, and for the testimony of the Lamb which they had. They cried with a loud voice, saying, "How long, Master, the holy and true, do you not judge and avenge our blood on those who dwell on the earth?" A long white robe was given them. They were told that they should rest yet for a while, until their fellow servants and their brothers, who would also be killed even as they were, completed their course.
[58] Matt.24:24 For there will arise false Christs, and false prophets, and they will show great signs and wonders, so as to lead astray, if possible, even the elect.
[59] Ps.78:51 And struck all the firstborn in Egypt, The chief of their strength in the tents of Ham.
[60] Ex.14:5 It was told the king of Egypt that the people had fled; and the heart of Pharaoh and of his servants was changed towards the people, and they said, "What is this we have done, that we have let Israel go from serving us?" He made ready his chariot, and took his army with him; and he took six hundred chosen chariots, and all the chariots of Egypt, and captains over all of them.
[61] Matt.27:46 About the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, "Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani?" That is, "My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?"
[62] Rom.6:23 For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.
[63] Gal.3:13 Christ redeemed us from the curse of the law, having become a curse for us. For it is written, "Cursed is everyone who hangs on a tree,"
[64] Ps.51:1 Have mercy on me, God, according to your lovingkindness. According to the multitude of your tender mercies, blot out my transgressions.
[65] John8:34 Jesus answered them, "Most assuredly I tell you, everyone who commits sin is the bondservant of sin.
[66] Ezek.18:4 Behold, all souls are mine; as the soul of the father, so also the soul of the son is mine: the soul who sins, he shall die.
[67] Rom.6:14 For sin will not have dominion over you. For you are not under law, but under grace. What then? Shall we sin, because we are not under law, but under grace? May it never be!
[68] Heb.2:14 Since then the children have shared in flesh and blood, he also himself in like manner partook of the same, that through death he might bring to nothing him who had the power of death, that is, the devil, and might deliver all of them who through fear of death were all their lifetime subject to bondage.
[69] Eph.2:5 even when we were dead through our trespasses, made us alive together with Christ (by grace you have been saved), and raised us up with him, and made us to sit with him in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus,
[70] Eph.2:1 You were made alive when you were dead in transgressions and sins, in which you once walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the powers of the air, the spirit who now works in the sons of disobedience; among whom we also all once lived in the lust of our flesh, doing the desires of the flesh and of the mind, and were by nature children of wrath, even as the rest.
[71] Heb.6:4 For concerning those who were once enlightened and tasted of the heavenly gift, and were made partakers of the Holy Spirit, and tasted the good word of God, and the powers of the age to come, and then fell away, it is impossible to renew them again to repentance; seeing they crucify the Son of God for themselves again, and put him to open shame.
[72] 2Pet.2:19 promising them liberty, while they themselves are bondservants of corruption; for by whom a man is overcome, by the same is he also brought into bondage. For if, after they have escaped the defilement of the world through the knowledge of the Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, they are again entangled therein and overcome, the last state has become worse with them than the first. For it would be better for them not to have known the way of righteousness, than, after knowing it, to turn back from the holy commandment delivered to them.
[73] 1Pet.5:8 Be sober and self-controlled. Be watchful. Your adversary the devil, walks around like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour. Withstand him steadfast in your faith, knowing that your brothers who are in the world are undergoing the same sufferings.
[74] Heb.10:26 For if we sin willfully after we have received the knowledge of the truth, there remains no more a sacrifice for sins, but a certain fearful expectation of judgment, and a fierceness of fire which will devour the adversaries.
[75] Deut.5:6 "I am Yahweh your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage.
[76] Matt.12:28 But if I by the Spirit of God cast out demons, then the Kingdom of God has come on you.
[77] Ex.13:21 Yahweh went before them by day in a pillar of cloud, to lead them on their way, and by night in a pillar of fire, to give them light, that they might go by day and by night: the pillar of cloud by day, and the pillar of fire by night, didn't depart from before the people.
[78] Gen.3:15 I will put enmity between you and the woman, and between your offspring and her offspring. He will bruise your head, and you will bruise his heel."
[79] John12:48 He who rejects me, and doesn't receive my sayings, has one who judges him. The word that I spoke, the same will judge him in the last day.
[80] 2Pet.2:18 For, uttering great swelling words of emptiness, they entice in the lusts of the flesh, by licentiousness, those who are indeed escaping from those who live in error;
[81] 2Cor.11:3 But I am afraid that somehow, as the serpent deceived Eve in his craftiness, so your minds might be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ.
[82] 2Cor.11:14 And no wonder, for even Satan masquerades as an angel of light. It is no great thing therefore if his ministers also masquerade as servants of righteousness, whose end will be according to their works.
[83] 2Cor.2:11 that no advantage may be gained over us by Satan; for we are not ignorant of his schemes.
[84] John11:25 Jesus said to her, “I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes in me, though he die, yet will he live. Whoever lives and believes in me will never die. Do you believe this?”
[85] Gal.5:17 For the flesh lusts against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh; and these are contrary to one other, that you may not do the things that you desire. But if you are led by the Spirit, you are not under the law.
[86] Rom.8:11 But if the Spirit of him who raised up Jesus from the dead dwells in you, he who raised up Christ Jesus from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies through his Spirit who dwells in you.
[87] Rom.8:1 There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus, who don't walk according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit. For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus made me free from the law of sin and of death.
[88] John14:16 I will pray to the Father, and he will give you another Counselor, that he may be with you forever, -- the Spirit of truth, whom the world can't receive; for it doesn't see him, neither knows him. You know him, for he lives with you, and will be in you.
[89] John16:13 However when he, the Spirit of truth, has come, he will guide you into all the truth, for he will not speak from himself; but whatever things he hears, he will speak. He will declare to you the things that are coming. He will glorify me, for he will take from what is mine, and will declare it to you.
[90] John15:9 Even as the Father has loved me, I also have loved you. Remain in my love. If you keep my commandments, you will remain in my love; even as I have kept my Father's commandments, and remain in his love.
[91] Ps.119:11 I have hidden your word in my heart, That I might not sin against you.
[92] John8:44 You are of your Father, the devil, and you want to do the desires of your father. He was a murderer from the beginning, and doesn't stand in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaks a lie, he speaks on his own; for he is a liar, and the father of it.
[93] Jer.51:7 Babylon has been a golden cup in Yahweh's hand, who made all the earth drunken: the nations have drunk of her wine; therefore the nations are mad.
Rev.17:1 One of the seven angels who had the seven bowls came and spoke with me, saying, "Come here. I will show you the judgment of the great prostitute who sits on many waters, with whom the kings of the earth committed sexual immorality, and those who dwell in the earth were made drunken with the wine of her sexual immorality."
[94] 2Pet.3:15 Regard the patience of our Lord as salvation; even as our beloved brother Paul also, according to the wisdom given to him, wrote to you; as also in all of his letters, speaking in them of these things. In those are some things hard to be understood, which the ignorant and unsettled twist, as they also do to the other Scriptures, to their own destruction.
[95] 2Thess.2:9 even he whose coming is according to the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders, and with all deception of wickedness for those who are being lost, because they didn't receive the love of the truth, that they might be saved. Because of this, God sends them a working of error, that they should believe a lie; that they all might be judged who didn't believe the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.
[96] Rev.15:2 I saw something like a sea of glass mixed with fire, and those who overcame the beast, and his image, and the number of his name, standing on the sea of glass, having harps of God. They sang the song of Moses, the servant of God, and the song of the Lamb, saying, "Great and marvelous are your works, Lord God, the Almighty; Righteous and true are your ways, you King of the nations.
[97] 2Cor.5:2 For most assuredly in this we groan, longing to be clothed with our habitation which is from heaven; if so be that being clothed we will not be found naked. For indeed we who are in this tent do groan, being burdened; not that we desire to be unclothed, but that we desire to be clothed, that what is mortal may be swallowed up by life.
[98] 1Cor.15:44 It is sown a natural body; it is raised a spiritual body. There is a natural body and there is also a spiritual body.
[99] Rev.11:15 The seventh angel sounded, and great voices in heaven followed, saying, "The kingdom of the world has become the Kingdom of our Lord, and of his Christ. He will reign forever and ever!" The twenty-four elders, who sit before God's throne on their thrones, fell on their faces and worshiped God, saying: "We give you thanks, Lord God, the Almighty, the one who is and who was; because you have taken your great power, and reigned. The nations were angry, and your wrath came, as did the time for the dead to be judged, and to give your servants the prophets, their reward, as well as the saints, and those who fear your name, the small and the great; and to destroy those who destroy the earth." God's temple that is in heaven was opened, and the ark of the Lord's covenant was seen in his temple. Lightnings, sounds, thunders, an earthquake, and great hail followed.
[100] 1Thess.4:16 For the Lord himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with God's trumpet. The dead in Christ will rise first, then we who are alive, who are left, will be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air. So we will be with the Lord forever.
[101] Rev.15:1 I saw another great and marvelous sign in the sky: seven angels having the seven last plagues, for in them God's wrath is finished. I saw something like a sea of glass mixed with fire, and those who overcame the beast, and his image, and the number of his name, standing on the sea of glass, having harps of God.
[102] Rev.19:19 I saw the beast, and the kings of the earth, and their armies, gathered together to make war against him who sat on the horse, and against his army. The beast was taken, and with him the false prophet who worked the signs in his sight, with which he deceived those who had received the mark of the beast and those who worshiped his image. They two were thrown alive into the lake of fire that burns with sulfur. The rest were killed with the sword of him who sat on the horse, the sword which came forth out of his mouth. All the birds were filled with their flesh.
[103] 1Cor.10:1 Now I would not have you ignorant, brothers, that our fathers were all under the cloud, and all passed through the sea; and were all baptized into Moses in the cloud and in the sea;
[104] Gal.5:16 But I say, walk by the Spirit, and you won't fulfill the lust of the flesh.
[105] Col.3:2 Set your mind on the things that are above, not on the things that are on the earth. For you died, and your life is hidden with Christ in God.
[106] Col.2:11 in whom you were also circumcised with a circumcision not made with hands, in the putting off of the body of the sins of the flesh, in the circumcision of Christ; having been buried with him in baptism, in which you were also raised with him through faith in the working of God, who raised him from the dead.
[107] Rom.7:5 For when we were in the flesh, the sinful passions which were through the law, worked in our members to bring forth fruit to death. But now we have been discharged from the law, having died to that in which we were held; so that we serve in newness of the spirit, and not in oldness of the letter.
[108] Eph.4:22 that you put away, as concerning your former way of life, the old man, that grows corrupt after the lusts of deceit;
[109] Rom.14:7 For none of us lives to himself, and none dies to himself. For if we live, we live to the Lord. Or if we die, we die to the Lord. If therefore we live or die, we are the Lord's.
[110] 1John5:18 We know that whoever is born of God doesn't sin, but he who was born of God keeps himself, and the evil one doesn't touch him.
[111] Col.1:24 Now I rejoice in my sufferings for your sake, and fill up on my part that which is lacking of the afflictions of Christ in my flesh for his body's sake, which is the assembly;
[112] Acts14:22 confirming the souls of the disciples, exhorting them to continue in the faith, and that through many afflictions we must enter into the Kingdom of God.
[113] Mark13:22 For there will arise false christs and false prophets, and will show signs and wonders, that they may lead astray, if possible, also the elect.
[114] 1Pet.5:8 Be sober and self-controlled. Be watchful. Your adversary the devil, walks around like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour. Withstand him steadfast in your faith, knowing that your brothers who are in the world are undergoing the same sufferings.
[115] 1Cor.12:13 For in one Spirit we were all baptized into one body, whether Jews or Greeks, whether bond or free; and were all given to drink into one Spirit.
Rom.8:11 But if the Spirit of him who raised up Jesus from the dead dwells in you, he who raised up Christ Jesus from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies through his Spirit who dwells in you.
[116] Rom.8:1 There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus, who don't walk according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit. For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus made me free from the law of sin and of death.
[117] 1Cor.15:54 But when this corruptible will have put on incorruption, and this mortal will have put on immortality, then what is written will happen: "Death is swallowed up in victory." "Death, where is your sting? Hades, where is your victory?" The sting of death is sin, and the power of sin is the law.
[118] Gen.49:3 "Reuben, you are my firstborn, my might, and the beginning of my strength; The pre-eminence of dignity, and the pre-eminence of power.
[119] Ps.78:51 And struck all the firstborn in Egypt, The chief of their strength in the tents of Ham.
[120] Ex.4:22 You shall tell Pharaoh, 'Thus says Yahweh, Israel is my son, my firstborn, and I have said to you, "Let my son go, that he may serve me;" and you have refused to let him go. Behold, I will kill your son, your firstborn.'"
[121] Lev.19:9 When you reap the harvest of your land, you shall not wholly reap the corners of your field, neither shall you gather the gleaning of your harvest. You shall not glean your vineyard, neither shall you gather the fallen fruit of your vineyard; you shall leave them for the poor and for the sojourner: I am Yahweh your God. You shall not steal; neither shall you deal falsely, nor lie one to another. You shall not swear by my name falsely, and profane the name of your God: I am Yahweh. You shall not oppress your neighbor, nor rob him: the wages of a hired servant shall not remain with you all night until the morning. You shall not curse the deaf, nor put a stumbling block before the blind; but you shall fear your God: I am Yahweh. You shall do no unrighteousness in judgment: you shall not respect the person of the poor, nor honor the person of the mighty; but in righteousness shall you judge your neighbor. You shall not go up and down as a talebearer among your people: neither shall you stand against the blood of your neighbor: I am Yahweh. You shall not hate your brother in your heart: you shall surely rebuke your neighbor, and not bear sin because of him. You shall not take vengeance, nor bear any grudge against the children of your people; but you shall love your neighbor as yourself: I am Yahweh.
[122] Ps.89:14 Righteousness and justice are the foundation of your throne. Lovingkindness and truth go before your face.
[123] Ps.33:5 He loves righteousness and justice. The earth is full of the lovingkindness of Yahweh.
[124] Prov.16:12 It is an abomination for kings to do wrong, For the throne is established by righteousness.
[125] Is.55:7 let the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts; and let him return to Yahweh, and he will have mercy on him; and to our God, for he will abundantly pardon.
[126] 1Cor.13:2 If I have the gift of prophecy, and know all mysteries and all knowledge; and if I have all faith, so as to remove mountains, but don't have love, I am nothing.
[127] Rom.13:10 Love doesn't harm a neighbor. Love therefore is the fulfillment of the law.
[128] Ps.33:4 For the word of Yahweh is right. All his work is done in faithfulness. He loves righteousness and justice. The earth is full of the lovingkindness of Yahweh.
[129] Rom.8:19 For the creation waits with eager expectation for the sons of God to be revealed.
[130] Gal.3:29 If you are Christ's, then you are Abraham's seed and heirs according to promise.
Rom.2:28 For he is not a Jew who is one outwardly, neither is that circumcision which is outward in the flesh; but he is a Jew who is one inwardly, and circumcision is that of the heart, in the spirit not in the letter; whose praise is not from men, but from God.
[131] James1:18 Of his own will he brought us forth by the word of truth, that we should be a kind of first fruits of his creatures.
[132] Jer.44:16 As for the word that you have spoken to us in the name of Yahweh, we will not listen to you. But we will certainly perform every word that is gone forth out of our mouth, to burn incense to the queen of the sky, and to pour out drink-offerings to her, as we have done, we and our fathers, our kings and our princes, in the cities of Judah, and in the streets of Jerusalem; for then had we plenty of victuals, and were well, and saw no evil. But since we left off burning incense to the queen of the sky, and pouring out drink-offerings to her, we have wanted all things, and have been consumed by the sword and by the famine.
[133] Job1:8 Yahweh said to Satan, "Have you considered my servant, Job? For there is none like him in the earth, a blameless and an upright man, one who fears God, and turns away from evil." Then Satan answered Yahweh, and said, "Does Job fear God for nothing? Haven't you made a hedge around him, and around his house, and around all that he has, on every side? You have blessed the work of his hands, and his substance is increased in the land. But put forth your hand now, and touch all that he has, and he will renounce you to your face."
[134] Gen.3:4 The serpent said to the woman, "You won't surely die, for God knows that in the day you eat it, your eyes will be opened, and you will be like God, knowing good and evil."
[135] 1John5:3 For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments. His commandments are not grievous.
[136] John8:44 You are of your Father, the devil, and you want to do the desires of your father. He was a murderer from the beginning, and doesn't stand in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaks a lie, he speaks on his own; for he is a liar, and the father of it.
[137] Gen.3:15 I will put enmity between you and the woman, and between your offspring and her offspring. He will bruise your head, and you will bruise his heel."
[138] Dan.7:2 Daniel spoke and said, I saw in my vision by night, and, behold, the four winds of the sky broke forth on the great sea. Four great animals came up from the sea, diverse one from another.
Dan.7:17 These great animals, which are four, are four kings, who shall arise out of the earth.
[139] Dan.3:6 and whoever doesn't fall down and worships shall the same hour be cast into the midst of a burning fiery furnace. Therefore at that time, when all the peoples heard the sound of the horn, flute, zither, lyre, harp, pipe, and all kinds of music, all the peoples, the nations, and the languages, fell down and worshiped the golden image that Nebuchadnezzar the king had set up.
[140] Matt.26:27 He took the cup, gave thanks, and gave to them, saying, "All of you drink it, for this is my blood of the new covenant, which is poured out for many for the remission of sins.
[141] 1Cor.6:19 Or don't you know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit which is in you, which you have from God? You are not your own, for you were bought with a price. Therefore glorify God in your body and in your spirit, which are God's.
[142] Rom.6:23 For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.
[143] Heb.2:14 Since then the children have shared in flesh and blood, he also himself in like manner partook of the same, that through death he might bring to nothing him who had the power of death, that is, the devil, and might deliver all of them who through fear of death were all their lifetime subject to bondage.
[144] 1Cor.15:20 But now Christ has been raised from the dead. He became the first fruits of those who are asleep.
[145] 1Cor.15:21 For since death came by man, the resurrection of the dead also came by man. For as in Adam all die, so also in Christ all will be made alive.
[146] Heb.4:15 For we don't have a high priest who can't be touched with the feeling of our infirmities, but one who has been in all points tempted like we are, yet without sin.
[147] 1Cor.15:54 But when this corruptible will have put on incorruption, and this mortal will have put on immortality, then what is written will happen: "Death is swallowed up in victory." "Death, where is your sting? Hades, where is your victory?" The sting of death is sin, and the power of sin is the law.
[148] John7:38 He who believes in me, as the Scripture has said, from within him will flow rivers of living water." But he said this about the Spirit, which those believing in him were to receive. For the Holy Spirit was not yet given, because Jesus wasn't yet glorified.
[149] Gal.4:26 But the Jerusalem that is above is free, which is the mother of us all. For it is written, "Rejoice, you barren who don't bear. Break forth and shout, you that don't travail. For more are the children of the desolate than of her who has a husband." Now we, brothers, as Isaac was, are children of promise. But as then, he who was born according to the flesh persecuted him who was born according to the Spirit, so also it is now.
[150] Rev.7:9 After these things I saw, and behold, a great multitude, which no man could number, out of every nation and of all tribes, peoples, and languages, standing before the throne and before the Lamb, dressed in white robes, with palm branches in their hands.

[152] Rev.12:12 Therefore rejoice, heavens, and you who dwell in them. Woe to the earth and to the sea, because the devil has gone down to you, having great wrath, knowing that he has but a short time."
Rev.6:9 When he opened the fifth seal, I saw underneath the altar the souls of those who had been killed for the Word of God, and for the testimony of the Lamb which they had. They cried with a loud voice, saying, "How long, Master, the holy and true, do you not judge and avenge our blood on those who dwell on the earth?" A long white robe was given them. They were told that they should rest yet for a while, until their fellow servants and their brothers, who would also be killed even as they were, completed their course.
[153] Eph.2:8 for by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, not of works, that no one would boast.
[154] Rom.8:15 For you didn't receive the spirit of bondage again to fear, but you received the Spirit of adoption, by whom we cry, "Abba! Father!" The Spirit himself testifies with our spirit that we are children of God;
[155] Rev.7:2 I saw another angel ascend from the sunrise, having the seal of the living God. He cried with a loud voice to the four angels to whom it was given to harm the earth and the sea, saying, "Don't harm the earth, neither the sea, nor the trees, until we have sealed the bondservants of our God on their foreheads!"
[156] Is.64:6 All of us have become like one who is unclean, and all our righteous acts are like filthy rags; we all shrivel up like a leaf, and like the wind our sins sweep us away.
[157] Gal.5:17 For the flesh lusts against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh; and these are contrary to one other, that you may not do the things that you desire. But if you are led by the Spirit, you are not under the law.
[158] Rom.8:1 There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus, who don't walk according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit. For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus made me free from the law of sin and of death.
[159] Rev.7:3 saying, "Don't harm the earth, neither the sea, nor the trees, until we have sealed the bondservants of our God on their foreheads!" I heard the number of those who were sealed, one hundred forty-four thousand, sealed out of every tribe of the children of Israel:
[160] Ex.23:16 "Celebrate the Feast of Harvest with the firstfruits of the crops you sow in your field. "Celebrate the Feast of Ingathering at the end of the year, when you gather in your crops from the field.
[161] Rev.14:3 They sing a new song before the throne, and before the four living creatures and the elders. No one could learn the song except the one hundred forty-four thousand, those who had been redeemed out of the earth. These are those who were not defiled with women, for they are virgins. These are those who follow the Lamb wherever he goes. These were redeemed by Jesus from among men, the first fruits to God and to the Lamb. In their mouth was found no lie, for they are blameless.
[162] Matt.5:17 "Don't think that I came to destroy the law or the prophets. I didn't come to destroy, but to fulfill.
[163] Col.2:16 Let no man therefore judge you in eating, or in drinking, or with respect to a feast day or a new moon or a Sabbath day, which are a shadow of the things to come; but the body is Christ's.
[164] Deut.24:17 You shall not wrest the justice [due] to the sojourner, [or] to the fatherless, nor take the widow's clothing to pledge; but you shall remember that you were a bondservant in Egypt, and Yahweh your God redeemed you there: therefore I command you to do this thing.
[165] Acts2:38 Peter said to them, "Repent, and be baptized, everyone of you, in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of sins, and you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.
[166] Rom.10:9 that if you will confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus, and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For with the heart, one believes unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.
[167] 2Cor.5:14 For the love of Christ constrains us; because we judge thus, that one died for all, therefore all died. He died for all, that those who live should no longer live to themselves, but to him who for their sakes died and rose again.
[168] Gal.2:20 I have been crucified with Christ, and it is no longer I that live, but Christ living in me. That life which I now live in the flesh, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself up for me.
[169] Col.1:20 and through him to reconcile all things to himself, having made peace through the blood of his cross. Through him, I say, whether things on the earth, or things in the heavens.
[170] Rom.14:5 One man considers one day more sacred than another; another man considers every day alike. Each one should be fully convinced in his own mind. He who regards one day as special, does so to the Lord. He who eats meat, eats to the Lord, for he gives thanks to God; and he who abstains, does so to the Lord and gives thanks to God. For none of us lives to himself alone and none of us dies to himself alone. If we live, we live to the Lord; and if we die, we die to the Lord. So, whether we live or die, we belong to the Lord.
[171] Eph.2:1 You were made alive when you were dead in transgressions and sins, in which you once walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the powers of the air, the spirit who now works in the sons of disobedience; among whom we also all once lived in the lust of our flesh, doing the desires of the flesh and of the mind, and were by nature children of wrath, even as the rest.
[172] Eph.6:11 Put on the full armor of God so that you can take your stand against the devil's schemes. For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.
[173] 2Tim.2:3 Endure hardship with us like a good soldier of Christ Jesus. No one serving as a soldier gets involved in civilian affairs--he wants to please his commanding officer.
[174] Ex.13:17 When Pharaoh let the people go, God did not lead them on the road through the Philistine country, though that was shorter. For God said, "If they face war, they might change their minds and return to Egypt."
[175] 1Pet.5:8 Be sober and self-controlled. Be watchful. Your adversary the devil, walks around like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour. Withstand him steadfast in your faith, knowing that your brothers who are in the world are undergoing the same sufferings.
[176] Num.14:1 All the congregation lifted up their voice, and cried; and the people wept that night. All the children of Israel murmured against Moses and against Aaron: and the whole congregation said to them, Would that we had died in the land of Egypt! or would that we had died in this wilderness! Why does Yahweh bring us to this land, to fall by the sword? Our wives and our little ones will be a prey: wouldn't it be better for us to return into Egypt?
[177] 1Cor.6:9 Or don't you know that the unrighteous will not inherit the Kingdom of God? Don't be deceived. Neither the sexually immoral, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor male prostitutes, nor homosexuals, nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor slanderers, nor extortioners, will inherit the Kingdom of God.
[178] Rev.6:9 When he opened the fifth seal, I saw underneath the altar the souls of those who had been killed for the Word of God, and for the testimony of the Lamb which they had. They cried with a loud voice, saying, "How long, Master, the holy and true, do you not judge and avenge our blood on those who dwell on the earth?" A long white robe was given them. They were told that they should rest yet for a while, until their fellow servants and their brothers, who would also be killed even as they were, completed their course.
[179] Heb.9:13 The blood of goats and bulls and the ashes of a heifer sprinkled on those who are ceremonially unclean sanctify them so that they are outwardly clean. How much more, then, will the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself unblemished to God, cleanse our consciences from acts that lead to death, so that we may serve the living God! For this reason Christ is the mediator of a new covenant, that those who are called may receive the promised eternal inheritance--now that he has died as a ransom to set them free from the sins committed under the first covenant.
[180] 1John5:20 We know that the Son of God has come, and has given us an understanding, that we know him who is true, and we are in him who is true, in his Son Jesus Christ. This is the true God, and eternal life.
[181] Col.1:16 For by him were all things created, in the heavens and on the earth, things visible and things invisible, whether thrones or dominions or principalities or powers; all things have been created through him, and for him. He is before all things, and in him all things are held together.
[182] 1Cor.8:6 yet to us there is one God, the Father, of whom are all things, and we for him; and one Lord, Jesus Christ, through whom are all things, and we live through him.
[183] John1:1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. The same was in the beginning with God. All things were made through him. Without him was not anything made that has been made.

[185] Deut.5:7 "You shall have no other gods before me.
[186] Matt.28:9 Suddenly Jesus met them. "Greetings," he said. They came to him, clasped his feet and worshiped(proskooneho) him.
Matt.28:17 When they saw him, they worshiped him; but some doubted. Then Jesus came to them and said, "All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me.
Rev.19:10 At this I fell at his feet to worship him. But he said to me, "Do not do it! I am a fellow servant with you and with your brothers who hold to the testimony of Jesus. Worship God! For the testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy."
[187] Ex.12:5 The animals you choose must be year-old males without defect, and you may take them from the sheep or the goats. Take care of them until the fourteenth day of the month, when all the people of the community of Israel must slaughter them at twilight.
[188] Lev.23:6 On the fifteenth day of the same month is the feast of unleavened bread to Yahweh: seven days you shall eat unleavened bread.
[189] Rom.1:4 and who through the Spirit of holiness was declared with power to be the Son of God by his resurrection from the dead: Jesus Christ our Lord.

[193] Rev.14:4 These are those who were not defiled with women, for they are virgins. These are those who follow the Lamb wherever he goes. These were redeemed by Jesus from among men, the first fruits to God and to the Lamb. In their mouth was found no lie, for they are blameless.
[194] Ex.23:14 "Three times a year you are to celebrate a festival to me.
[195] Luke23:44 It was now about the sixth hour, and darkness came over the whole land until the ninth hour. The sun was darkened, and the veil of the temple was torn in two. Jesus, crying with a loud voice, said, "Father, into your hands I commit my spirit!" Having said this, he breathed his last.
[196] Gen.1:31 God saw everything that he had made, and, behold, it was very good. There was evening and there was morning, the sixth day.
[197] Mark16:9 Now when he had risen early on the first day of the week, he appeared first to Mary Magdalene, from whom he had cast out seven demons.
[198] 1Cor.15:54 But when this corruptible will have put on incorruption, and this mortal will have put on immortality, then what is written will happen: "Death is swallowed up in victory." "Death, where is your sting? Hades, where is your victory?" The sting of death is sin, and the power of sin is the law.
[199] 1Cor.15:45 So also it is written, "The first man, Adam, became a living soul." The last Adam became a life-giving spirit.
[200] Gen.3:17 To Adam he said, "Because you have listened to your wife's voice, and have eaten of the tree, of which I commanded you, saying, 'You shall not eat of it,' cursed is the ground for your sake. In toil you will eat of it all the days of your life. Thorns also and thistles will it bring forth to you; and you will eat the herb of the field.
[201] Rom.7:5 For when we were in the flesh, the sinful passions which were through the law, worked in our members to bring forth fruit to death.
[202] Gal.5:16 But I say, walk by the Spirit, and you won't fulfill the lust of the flesh. For the flesh lusts against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh; and these are contrary to one other, that you may not do the things that you desire.
[203] 1Pet.2:21 For to this you were called, because Christ also suffered for us, leaving us an example, that you should follow his steps, who did not sin, "neither was deceit found in his mouth."
[204] John1:14 The Word became flesh, and lived among us. We saw his glory, such glory as of the one and only Son of the Father, full of grace and truth.

[206] John2:20 The Jews therefore said, "Forty-six years was this temple in building, and will you raise it up in three days?" But he spoke of the temple of his body.
[207] Gal.5:17 For the flesh lusts against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh; and these are contrary to one other, that you may not do the things that you desire. But if you are led by the Spirit, you are not under the law.
[208] 1Cor.3:16 Don't you know that you are a temple of God, and that God's Spirit lives in you?
[209] Rom.6:5 For if we have become united with him in the likeness of his death, we will also be part of his resurrection; knowing this, that our old man was crucified with him, that the body of sin might be done away with, so that we would no longer be in bondage to sin. For he who has died has been freed from sin.
[210] Rom.8:11 But if the Spirit of him who raised up Jesus from the dead dwells in you, he who raised up Christ Jesus from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies through his Spirit who dwells in you.
[211] Heb.4:15 For we don't have a high priest who can't be touched with the feeling of our infirmities, but one who has been in all points tempted like we are, yet without sin.
[212] John7:39 But he said this about the Spirit, which those believing in him were to receive. For the Holy Spirit was not yet given, because Jesus wasn't yet glorified.
[213] Acts2:38 Peter said to them, "Repent, and be baptized, everyone of you, in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of sins, and you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.
[214] Luke24:39 See my hands and my feet, that it is truly me. Touch me and see, for a spirit doesn't have flesh and bones, as you see that I have." When he had said this, he shown them his hands and his feet. While they still didn't believe for joy, and wondered, he said to them, "Do you have anything here to eat?" They gave him a piece of a broiled fish and some honeycomb. He took it, and ate in front of them.
[215] 1Cor.15:44 It is sown a natural body; it is raised a spiritual body. There is a natural body and there is also a spiritual body.

The angel said to him, "Put on your clothes, and tie on your sandals." He did so. He said to him, "Put on your cloak, and follow me." He went out, and followed him. He didn't know that what was done by the angel was real, but thought he saw a vision.
[222] Rom.8:18 For I consider that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which will be revealed toward us.
[223] Luke20:35 But those who are considered worthy to attain to that age and the resurrection from the dead, neither marry, nor are given in marriage. For neither can they die any more, for they are like the angels, and are sons of God, being sons of the resurrection.
[224] Matt.22:30 For in the resurrection they neither marry, nor are given in marriage, but are like God's angels in heaven.
[225] Heb.2:14 Since then the children have shared in flesh and blood, he also himself in like manner partook of the same, that through death he might bring to nothing him who had the power of death, that is, the devil, and might deliver all of them who through fear of death were all their lifetime subject to bondage. For most assuredly, not to angels does he give help, but he gives help to the seed of Abraham.
[226] Eph.2:1 You were made alive when you were dead in transgressions and sins, in which you once walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the powers of the air, the spirit who now works in the sons of disobedience;
[227] Judg.13:21 But the angel of Yahweh did no more appear to Manoah or to his wife. Then Manoah knew that he was the angel of Yahweh. Manoah said to his wife, We shall surely die, because we have seen God.

[229] 1Tim.2:5 For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus,
[230] Rom.7:22 For I delight in God's law after the inward man, but I see a different law in my members, warring against the law of my mind, and bringing me into captivity under the law of sin which is in my members. What a wretched man I am! Who will deliver me out of the body of this death?
[231] Rom.8:17 and if children, then heirs; heirs of God, and joint-heirs with Christ; if indeed we suffer with him, that we may also be glorified with him. For I consider that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which will be revealed toward us.
[232] 1Pet.2:21 For to this you were called, because Christ also suffered for us, leaving us an example, that you should follow his steps,

John10:17 Therefore the Father loves me, because I lay down my life, that I may take it again. No one takes it away from me, but I lay it down by myself. I have power to lay it down, and I have power to take it again. I received this commandment from my Father."
[236] Lev.25:24 In all the land of your possession you shall grant a redemption for the land. If your brother be grew poor, and sell some of his possession, then shall his kinsman who is next to him come, and shall redeem that which his brother has sold.

[238] Gen.2:15 Yahweh God took the man, and put him into the garden of Eden to dress it and to keep it.
Luke4:5 The devil, leading him up on a high mountain, showed him all the kingdoms of the world in a moment of time.

If you therefore will worship before me, it will all be yours."

[240] Josh.6:14 The second day they compassed the city once, and returned into the camp: so they did six days. It happened on the seventh day, that they rose early at the dawning of the day, and compassed the city after the same manner seven times: only on the day they compassed the city seven times. It happened at the seventh time, when the priests blew the trumpets, Joshua said to the people, Shout; for Yahweh has given you the city.
[241] Rev.15:1 I saw another great and marvelous sign in the sky: seven angels having the seven last plagues, for in them God's wrath is finished.
[242] Rev.16:17 The seventh poured out his bowl into the air. A loud voice came forth out of the temple of heaven, from the throne, saying, "It is done!" There were lightnings, sounds, and thunders; and there was a great earthquake, such as was not since there were men on the earth, so great an earthquake, so mighty. The great city was divided into three parts, and the cities of the nations fell. Babylon the great was remembered in the sight of God, to give to her the cup of the wine of the fierceness of his wrath.
[243] 1Thess.4:16 For the Lord himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with God's trumpet. The dead in Christ will rise first, then we who are alive, who are left, will be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air. So we will be with the Lord forever.
[244] Rev.6:9 When he opened the fifth seal, I saw underneath the altar the souls of those who had been killed for the Word of God, and for the testimony of the Lamb which they had. They cried with a loud voice, saying, "How long, Master, the holy and true, do you not judge and avenge our blood on those who dwell on the earth?" A long white robe was given them. They were told that they should rest yet for a while, until their fellow servants and their brothers, who would also be killed even as they were, completed their course.
[245] 1John4:18 There is no fear in love; but perfect love casts out fear, because fear has punishment. He who fears is not made perfect in love.
[246] John14:15 If you love me, keep my commandments.
[247] Rev.11:18 The nations were angry; and your wrath has come. The time has come for judging the dead, and for rewarding your servants the prophets and your saints and those who reverence your name, both small and great--and for destroying those who destroy the earth."
[248] Rev.16:5 I heard the angel of the waters saying, "You are righteous, who are and who were, you Holy One, because you judged this way. For they poured out the blood of the saints and the prophets, and you have given them blood to drink. They deserve this." I heard the altar saying, "Yes, Lord God, the Almighty, true and righteous are your judgments."
[249] Mic.7:2 The godly have been swept from the land; not one upright man remains. All men lie in wait to shed blood; each hunts his brother with a net. Both hands are skilled in doing evil; the ruler demands gifts, the judge accepts bribes, the powerful dictate what they desire--they all conspire together. The best of them is like a brier, the most upright worse than a thorn hedge. The day of your watchmen has come, the day God visits you. Now is the time of their confusion.
[250] Lev.25:42 For they are my servants, whom I brought forth out of the land of Egypt: they shall not be sold as bondservants.
1Cor.7:23 You were bought with a price. Don't become bondservants of men.
[251] Lev.25:23 The land shall not be sold in perpetuity; for the land is mine: for you are strangers and sojourners with me.
[252] 1Cor.3:16 Don't you know that you are a temple of God, and that God's Spirit lives in you? If anyone destroys the temple of God, God will destroy him; for God's temple is holy, which you are.
[253] Rom.7:22 For I delight in God's law after the inward man, but I see a different law in my members, warring against the law of my mind, and bringing me into captivity under the law of sin which is in my members. What a wretched man I am! Who will deliver me out of the body of this death?
[254] Rom.8:1 There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus, who don't walk according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit. For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus made me free from the law of sin and of death.
[255] 1Thess.5:19 Don't quench the Spirit.
[256] Luke20:35 But those who are considered worthy to attain to that age and the resurrection from the dead, neither marry, nor are given in marriage. For neither can they die any more, for they are like the angels, and are sons of God, being sons of the resurrection.
[257] Rev.20:7 And after the thousand years, Satan will be released from his prison,
[258] Rev.20:8 and will go out to deceive the nations in the four corners of the earth--Gog and Magog--to gather them for battle. In number they are like the sand on the seashore. They marched across the breadth of the earth and surrounded the camp of God's people, the city he loves. But fire came down from heaven and devoured them.
[259] Rev.22:1 He showed me a river of water of life, clear as crystal, proceeding out of the throne of God and of the Lamb, in the midst of its street. On this side of the river and on that was the tree of life, bearing twelve kinds of fruits, yielding its fruit every month. The leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations. There will be no curse any more. The throne of God and of the Lamb will be in it, and his servants serve him.
[260] 1Cor.15:25 For he must reign until he has put all his enemies under his feet. The last enemy that will be abolished is death.
[261] John8:34 Jesus answered them, "Most assuredly I tell you, everyone who commits sin is the bondservant of sin.
[262] Luke4:5 The devil, leading him up on a high mountain, showed him all the kingdoms of the world in a moment of time. The devil said to him, "I will give you all this authority, and their glory, for it has been delivered to me; and I give it to whomever I want. If you therefore will worship before me, it will all be yours."
[263] Heb.11:35 Women received their dead by resurrection. Others were tortured, not accepting their deliverance, that they might obtain a better resurrection. Others were tried by mocking and scourging, yes, moreover by bonds and imprisonment. They were stoned. They were sawn apart. They were tempted. They were slain with the sword. They went around in sheepskins, in goatskins; being destitute, afflicted, ill-treated
[264] Rom.8:17 and if children, then heirs; heirs of God, and joint-heirs with Christ; if indeed we suffer with him, that we may also be glorified with him. For I consider that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which will be revealed toward us.
[265] Col.1:24 Now I rejoice in my sufferings for your sake, and fill up on my part that which is lacking of the afflictions of Christ in my flesh for his body's sake, which is the assembly;
[266] Matt.19:28 Jesus said to them, "I tell you the truth, at the renewal of all things, when the Son of Man sits on his glorious throne, you who have followed me will also sit on twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.
[267] Luke19:17 "'Well done, my good servant!' his master replied. 'Because you have been trustworthy in a very small matter, take charge of ten cities.' "The second came and said, 'Sir, your mina has earned five more.' "His master answered, 'You take charge of five cities.'
[268] Lev.16:21 Aaron shall lay both his hands on the head of the live goat, and confess over him all the iniquities of the children of Israel, and all their transgressions, even all their sins; and he shall put them on the head of the goat, and shall send him away into the wilderness by the hand of a man who is in readiness.
[269] Gen.3:4 The serpent said to the woman, "You won't surely die, for God knows that in the day you eat it, your eyes will be opened, and you will be like God, knowing good and evil."
[270] Job1:8 Yahweh said to Satan, "Have you considered my servant, Job? For there is none like him in the earth, a blameless and an upright man, one who fears God, and turns away from evil." Then Satan answered Yahweh, and said, "Does Job fear God for nothing? Haven't you made a hedge around him, and around his house, and around all that he has, on every side? You have blessed the work of his hands, and his substance is increased in the land. But put forth your hand now, and touch all that he has, and he will renounce you to your face."
[271] Deut.5:11 "You shall not take the name of Yahweh your God in vain: for Yahweh will not hold him guiltless who takes his name in vain.
[272] 1John5:3 For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments. His commandments are not grievous.
[273] John8:44 You are of your Father, the devil, and you want to do the desires of your father. He was a murderer from the beginning, and doesn't stand in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaks a lie, he speaks on his own; for he is a liar, and the father of it.
[274] Heb.4:15 For we don't have a high priest who can't be touched with the feeling of our infirmities, but one who has been in all points tempted like we are, yet without sin.
Heb.5:7 He, in the days of his flesh, having offered up prayers and petitions with strong crying and tears to him who was able to save him from death, and having been heard for his godly fear,
[275] Rev.14:3 They sing a new song before the throne, and before the four living creatures and the elders. No one could learn the song except the one hundred forty-four thousand, those who had been redeemed out of the earth. These are those who were not defiled with women, for they are virgins. These are those who follow the Lamb wherever he goes. These were redeemed by Jesus from among men, the first fruits to God and to the Lamb.
[276] Rev.6:9 When he opened the fifth seal, I saw underneath the altar the souls of those who had been killed for the Word of God, and for the testimony of the Lamb which they had. They cried with a loud voice, saying, "How long, Master, the holy and true, do you not judge and avenge our blood on those who dwell on the earth?" A long white robe was given them. They were told that they should rest yet for a while, until their fellow servants and their brothers, who would also be killed even as they were, completed their course.
[277] Rev.20:1 I saw an angel coming down out of heaven, having the key of the abyss and a great chain in his hand. He seized the dragon, the old serpent, which is the devil and Satan, who deceives the whole inhabited earth, and bound him for a thousand years, and cast him into the abyss, and shut it, and sealed it over him, that he should deceive the nations no more, until the thousand years were finished. After this, he must be freed for a short time.
[278] Rev.20:6 Blessed and holy is he who has part in the first resurrection. Over these, the second death has no power, but they will be priests of God and of Christ, and will reign with him one thousand years.
[279] Ps.22:1 My God, my God, why have you forsaken me? Why are you so far from helping me, and from the words of my groaning? My God, I cry in the daytime, but you don't answer; In the night season, and am not silent.
Ps.22:6 But I am a worm, and no man; A reproach of men, and despised by the people. All those who see me mock me. They insult me with their lips. They shake their heads, saying, "He trusts in Yahweh; Let him deliver him; Let him rescue him, since he delights in him."
Ps.22:11 Do not be far from me, for trouble is near and there is no one to help. Many bulls surround me; strong bulls of Bashan encircle me. Roaring lions tearing their prey open their mouths wide against me. I am poured out like water, and all my bones are out of joint. My heart has turned to wax; it has melted away within me. My strength is dried up like a potsherd, and my tongue sticks to the roof of my mouth; you lay me in the dust of death. Dogs have surrounded me; a band of evil men has encircled me, they have pierced my hands and my feet. I can count all my bones; people stare and gloat over me. They divide my garments among them and cast lots for my clothing.
Matt.27:46 About the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, "Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani?" That is, "My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?"
Gal.2:20 I have been crucified with Christ, and it is no longer I that live, but Christ living in me. That life which I now live in the flesh, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself up for me.
[280] Lev.23:5 In the first month, on the fourteenth day of the month at even, is Yahweh's Passover.
Ex.12:11 This is how you shall eat it: with your loins girded, your shoes on your feet, and your staff in your hand; and you shall eat it in haste: it is Yahweh's Passover. For I will go through the land of Egypt in that night, and will strike all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, both man and animal. Against all the gods of Egypt I will execute judgments: I am Yahweh. The blood shall be to you for a token on the houses where you are: and when I see the blood, I will pass over you, and there shall no plague be on you to destroy you, when I strike the land of Egypt.
Heb.9:13 The blood of goats and bulls and the ashes of a heifer sprinkled on those who are ceremonially unclean sanctify them so that they are outwardly clean. How much more, then, will the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself unblemished to God, cleanse our consciences from acts that lead to death, so that we may serve the living God!
[281] John19:42 Because it was the Jewish day of Preparation and since the tomb was nearby, they laid Jesus there.
Ps.23:1 Yahweh is my shepherd: I shall lack nothing. He makes me lie down in green pastures. He leads me beside still waters. He restores my soul. He guides me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake. Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for you are with me. Your rod and your staff, they comfort me. You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies. You anoint my head with oil. My cup runs over. Surely goodness and lovingkindness shall follow me all the days of my life, And I shall dwell in Yahweh's house forever. A Psalm by David.
[282] Ex.12:17 "Celebrate the Feast of Unleavened Bread, because it was on this very day that I brought your divisions out of Egypt. Celebrate this day as a lasting ordinance for the generations to come. In the first month you are to eat bread made without yeast, from the evening of the fourteenth day until the evening of the twenty-first day. For seven days no yeast is to be found in your houses. And whoever eats anything with yeast in it must be cut off from the community of Israel, whether he is an alien or native-born.
Lev.23:6 On the fifteenth day of the same month is the feast of unleavened bread to Yahweh: seven days you shall eat unleavened bread.
Ex.13:7 Unleavened bread shall be eaten throughout the seven days; and no leavened bread shall be seen with you, neither shall there be yeast seen with you, in all your borders. You shall tell your son in that day, saying, 'It is because of that which Yahweh did for me when I came forth out of Egypt.'
[283] Ps.24:7 Lift up your heads, you gates; Be lifted up, you everlasting doors: The King of glory will come in. Who is the King of glory? Yahweh strong and mighty, Yahweh mighty in battle. Lift up your heads, you gates; Yes, lift them up, you everlasting doors: The King of glory will come in. Who is this King of glory? Yahweh of Hosts, He is the King of glory. Selah. By David.
Ps.30:3 Yahweh, you have brought up my soul from Sheol. You have kept me alive, that I should not go down to the pit.
Rom.8:11 But if the Spirit of him who raised up Jesus from the dead dwells in you, he who raised up Christ Jesus from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies through his Spirit who dwells in you.
Rom.6:5 For if we have become united with him in the likeness of his death, we will also be part of his resurrection;
1Cor.15:22 For as in Adam all die, so also in Christ all will be made alive.
2Cor.5:1 For we know that if the earthly house of our tent is dissolved, we have a building from God, a house not made with hands, eternal, in the heavens. For most assuredly in this we groan, longing to be clothed with our habitation which is from heaven; if so be that being clothed we will not be found naked. For indeed we who are in this tent do groan, being burdened; not that we desire to be unclothed, but that we desire to be clothed, that what is mortal may be swallowed up by life. Now he who made us for this very thing is God, who also gave to us the down payment of the Spirit.
[284] Lev.23:10 Speak to the children of Israel, and tell them, When you are come into the land which I give to you, and shall reap the harvest of it, then you shall bring the sheaf of the first fruits of your harvest to the priest: and he shall wave the sheaf before Yahweh, to be accepted for you: on the next day after the Sabbath the priest shall wave it.
[285] 1Cor.15:20 But now Christ has been raised from the dead. He became the first fruits of those who are asleep.
[286] Deut.11:14 that I will give the rain of your land in its season, the early rain and the latter rain, that you may gather in your grain, and your new wine, and your oil.
John7:38 He who believes in me, as the Scripture has said, from within him will flow rivers of living water." But he said this about the Spirit, which those believing in him were to receive. For the Holy Spirit was not yet given, because Jesus wasn't yet glorified.
Is.59:20 A Redeemer will come to Zion, and to those who turn from disobedience in Jacob, says Yahweh.
Mic.5:7 The remnant of Jacob will be in the midst of many peoples, Like dew from Yahweh, Like showers on the grass, That don't wait for man, Nor wait for the sons of men. The remnant of Jacob will be among the nations, In the midst of many peoples, Like a lion among the animals of the forest, Like a young lion among the flocks of sheep; Who, if he goes through, treads down and tears in pieces, And there is no one to deliver.
[287] Lev.23:15 You shall count to you from the next day after the Sabbath, from the day that you brought the sheaf of the wave-offering; seven Sabbaths shall there be complete: even to the next day after the seventh Sabbath shall you number fifty days; and you shall offer a new meal-offering to Yahweh.
[288] Ex.34:22 "Celebrate the Feast of Weeks with the firstfruits of the wheat harvest, and the Feast of Ingathering at the turn of the year.
[289] Gen.30:14 During wheat harvest, Reuben went out into the fields and found some mandrake plants, which he brought to his mother Leah. Rachel said to Leah, "Please give me some of your son's mandrakes."(Israel harvests barley first and then wheat a few weeks later)
Num.28:26 Also in the day of the first fruits, when you offer a new meal-offering to Yahweh in your [feast of] weeks, you shall have a holy convocation; you shall do no servile work;
[290] Rom.8:23 Not only so, but ourselves also, who have the first fruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, waiting for adoption, the redemption of our body.
[291] Rev.14:3 They sing a new song before the throne, and before the four living creatures and the elders. No one could learn the song except the one hundred forty-four thousand, those who had been redeemed out of the earth. These are those who were not defiled with women, for they are virgins. These are those who follow the Lamb wherever he goes. These were redeemed by Jesus from among men, the first fruits to God and to the Lamb.
[292] 1Thess.4:16 For the Lord himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with God's trumpet. The dead in Christ will rise first,
[293] Lev.23:24 Speak to the children of Israel, saying, In the seventh month, on the first day of the month, shall be a solemn rest to you, a memorial of blowing of trumpets, a holy convocation.
Rev.8:1 When he opened the seventh seal, there followed a silence in heaven for about half an hour. I saw the seven angels who stand before God, and seven trumpets were given to them.
Is.27:13 It shall happen in that day, that a great trumpet shall be blown; and they shall come who were ready to perish in the land of Assyria, and those who were outcasts in the land of Egypt; and they shall worship Yahweh in the holy mountain at Jerusalem.
[294] Rom.6:23 For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.
1Cor.15:51 Behold, I tell you a mystery. We will not all sleep, but we will all be changed, in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet. For the trumpet will sound, and the dead will be raised incorruptible, and we will be changed. For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality. But when this corruptible will have put on incorruption, and this mortal will have put on immortality, then what is written will happen: "Death is swallowed up in victory."
Matt.24:31 And he will send his angels with a loud trumpet call, and they will gather his elect from the four winds, from one end of the heavens to the other.
Rev.11:14 The second woe is past. Behold, the third woe comes quickly. The seventh angel sounded, and great voices in heaven followed, saying, "The kingdom of the world has become the Kingdom of our Lord, and of his Christ. He will reign forever and ever!"
[295] Rev.20:1 I saw an angel coming down out of heaven, having the key of the abyss and a great chain in his hand. He seized the dragon, the old serpent, which is the devil and Satan, who deceives the whole inhabited earth, and bound him for a thousand years, and cast him into the abyss, and shut it, and sealed it over him, that he should deceive the nations no more, until the thousand years were finished. After this, he must be freed for a short time.
[296] Lev.23:27 However on the tenth day of this seventh month is the day of atonement: it shall be a holy convocation to you, and you shall afflict your souls; and you shall offer an offering made by fire to Yahweh.
Lev.16:33 and make atonement for the Most Holy Place, for the Tent of Meeting and the altar, and for the priests and all the people of the community.
[297] Rev.11:15 The seventh angel sounded, and great voices in heaven followed, saying, "The kingdom of the world has become the Kingdom of our Lord, and of his Christ. He will reign forever and ever!" The twenty-four elders, who sit before God's throne on their thrones, fell on their faces and worshiped God, saying: "We give you thanks, Lord God, the Almighty, the one who is and who was; because you have taken your great power, and reigned. The nations were angry, and your wrath came, as did the time for the dead to be judged, and to give your servants the prophets, their reward, as well as the saints, and those who fear your name, the small and the great; and to destroy those who destroy the earth." God's temple that is in heaven was opened, and the ark of the Lord's covenant was seen in his temple. Lightnings, sounds, thunders, an earthquake, and great hail followed.
[298] Rev.14:14 I looked, and behold, a white cloud; and on the cloud one sitting like a son of man, having on his head a golden crown, and in his hand a sharp sickle. Another angel came out from the temple, crying with a loud voice to him who sat on the cloud, "Send forth your sickle, and reap; for the hour to reap has come; for the harvest of the earth is ripe!" He who sat on the cloud thrust his sickle on the earth, and the earth was reaped. Another angel came out from the temple which is in heaven. He also had a sharp sickle. Another angel came out from the altar, he who has power over fire, and he called with a great voice to him who had the sharp sickle, saying, "Send forth your sharp sickle, and gather the clusters of the vine of the earth, for the earth's grapes are fully ripe!" The angel thrust his sickle into the earth, and gathered the vintage of the earth, and threw it into the great winepress of the wrath of God.
Rev.14:3 They sing a new song before the throne, and before the four living creatures and the elders. No one could learn the song except the one hundred forty-four thousand, those who had been redeemed out of the earth. These are those who were not defiled with women, for they are virgins. These are those who follow the Lamb wherever he goes. These were redeemed by Jesus from among men, the first fruits to God and to the Lamb. In their mouth was found no lie, for they are blameless.
Matt.13:30 Let both grow together until the harvest. At that time I will tell the harvesters: First collect the weeds and tie them in bundles to be burned; then gather the wheat and bring it into my barn.'"
Joel3:13 Swing the sickle, for the harvest is ripe. Come, trample the grapes, for the winepress is full and the vats overflow--so great is their wickedness!'
[299] Deut.16:13 Celebrate the Feast of Tabernacles for seven days after you have gathered the produce of your threshing floor and your winepress.
Rev.20:4 I saw thrones, and they sat on them, and judgment was given to them. I saw the souls of those who had been beheaded for the testimony of Jesus, and for the word of God, and such as didn't worship the beast nor his image, and didn't receive the mark on their forehead and on their hand. They lived, and reigned with Christ for the thousand years.
[300] Ex.23:16 "Celebrate the Feast of Harvest with the firstfruits of the crops you sow in your field. "Celebrate the Feast of Ingathering at the end of the year, when you gather in your crops from the field.

[302] Rev.15:7 One of the four living creatures gave to the seven angels seven golden bowls full of the wrath of God, who lives forever and ever. The temple was filled with smoke from the glory of God, and from his power. No one was able to enter into the temple, until the seven plagues of the seven angels would be finished.
Lev.16:15 "Then he shall kill the goat of the sin offering, that is for the people, and bring his blood within the veil, and do with his blood as he did with the blood of the bull, and sprinkle it on the mercy seat, and before the mercy seat: and he shall make atonement for the Holy Place, because of the uncleanness of the children of Israel, and because of their transgressions, even all their sins; and so he shall do for the Tent of Meeting, that dwells with them in the midst of their uncleanness. There shall be no one in the Tent of Meeting when he enters to make atonement in the Holy Place, until he comes out, and has made atonement for himself and for his household, and for all the assembly of Israel.
[303] 1Pet.1:12 To them it was revealed, that not to themselves, but to you, did they minister these things, which now have been announced to you through those who preached the gospel to you by the Holy Spirit sent out from heaven; which things angels desire to look into. Therefore, prepare your minds for action, be sober and set your hope fully on the grace that will be brought to you at the revelation of Jesus Christ --
[304] 1Thess.4:16 For the Lord himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with God's trumpet. The dead in Christ will rise first, then we who are alive, who are left, will be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air. So we will be with the Lord forever.
[305] Rev.15:1 I saw another great and marvelous sign in the sky: seven angels having the seven last plagues, for in them God's wrath is finished. I saw something like a sea of glass mixed with fire, and those who overcame the beast, and his image, and the number of his name, standing on the sea of glass, having harps of God.
[306] Rev.19:14 The armies which are in heaven followed him on white horses, clothed in white, pure, fine linen. Out of his mouth proceeds a sharp, double-edged sword, that with it he should strike the nations. He will rule them with a rod of iron. He treads the winepress of the fierceness of the wrath of God, the Almighty.
[307] Hos.6:3 Let us acknowledge Yahweh. Let us press on to know Yahweh. As surely as the sun rises, Yahweh will appear. He will come to us like the rain, Like the spring rain that waters the earth."
Hos.6:3 Then shall we know, [if] we follow on to know the LORD: his going forth is prepared as the morning; and he shall come unto us as the rain, as the latter [and] early rain unto the earth.[KJV]
[308] Rev.7:3 saying, "Don't harm the earth, neither the sea, nor the trees, until we have sealed the bondservants of our God on their foreheads!" I heard the number of those who were sealed, one hundred forty-four thousand, sealed out of every tribe of the children of Israel:
[309] John6:54 He who eats my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life, and I will raise him up at the last day. For my flesh is food indeed, and my blood is drink indeed.
[310] Luke22:20 He took the cup in like manner after supper, saying, "This cup is the new covenant in my blood, that which is poured out for you.
[311] Heb.8:10 "For this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel. After those days," says the Lord; "I will put my laws into their mind, I will also write them on their heart. I will be to them a God, And they will be to me a people.
[312] Acts2:38 Peter said to them, "Repent, and be baptized, everyone of you, in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of sins, and you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.
[313] 2Cor.3:3 being revealed that you are a letter of Christ, ministered by us, written not with ink, but with the Spirit of the living God; not in tablets of stone, but in tablets that are hearts of flesh. Such confidence we have through Christ toward God; not that we are sufficient of ourselves, to account anything as from ourselves; but our sufficiency is from God; who also made us sufficient as servants of a new covenant; not of the letter, but of the Spirit. For the letter kills, but the Spirit gives life.
[314] 2Cor.3:7 But if the service of death, written engraved on stones, came with glory, so that the children of Israel could not look steadfastly on the face of Moses for the glory of his face; which was passing away: won't service of the Spirit be with much more glory? For if the service of condemnation has glory, the service of righteousness exceeds much more in glory.
[315] Rom.7:7 What shall we say then? Is the law sin? May it never be! However, I wouldn't have known sin, except through the law. For I wouldn't have known coveting, unless the law had said, "You shall not covet."
[316] Gal.3:24 So that the law has become our tutor to bring us to Christ, that we might be justified by faith.
[317] Rom.8:1 There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus, who don't walk according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit. For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus made me free from the law of sin and of death.
[318] Gal.5:17 For the flesh lusts against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh; and these are contrary to one other, that you may not do the things that you desire. But if you are led by the Spirit, you are not under the law.
[319] Rom.6:20 When you were slaves to sin, you were free from the control of righteousness. What benefit did you reap at that time from the things you are now ashamed of? Those things result in death! But now that you have been set free from sin and have become slaves to God, the benefit you reap leads to holiness, and the result is eternal life.
[320] Rom.5:5 and hope doesn't disappoint us, because God's love has been poured out into our hearts through the Holy Spirit who was given to us.
[321] 1Cor.2:10 but God has revealed it to us by his Spirit. The Spirit searches all things, even the deep things of God. For who among men knows the thoughts of a man except the man's spirit within him? In the same way no one knows the thoughts of God except the Spirit of God. We have not received the spirit of the world but the Spirit who is from God, that we may understand what God has freely given us.
[322] Heb.1:3 His Son is the radiance of his glory, the very image of his substance, and upholding all things by the word of his power, when he had by himself made purification for our sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high;
[323] John12:48 He who rejects me, and doesn't receive my sayings, has one who judges him. The word that I spoke, the same will judge him in the last day.
[324] John15:22 If I had not come and spoken to them, they would not have had sin; but now they have no excuse for their sin. He who hates me, hates my Father also. If I hadn't done among them the works which no one else did, they wouldn't have had sin. But now have they seen and also hated both me and my Father.
[325] Eph.5:13 But all things, when they are reproved, are revealed by the light, for everything that is revealed is light. Therefore he says, "Awake, you who sleep, and arise from the dead, and Christ will shine on you."
[326] Luke13:34 "Jerusalem, Jerusalem, that kills the prophets, and stones those who are sent to her! How often I wanted to gather your children together, like a hen gathers her own brood under her wings, and you refused!
[327] 1John1:5 This is the message which we have heard from him and announce to you, that God is light, and in him is no darkness at all. If we say that we have fellowship with him and walk in the darkness, we lie, and don't tell the truth.
