Matthew 25 and 1 Samuel 25-70AD Connection

 Matthew 25 and 1 Samuel 25-70AD connection



Have you ever noticed 1 Samuel 25 and Matthew 25 share similar imagery?


In 1 Samuel 25 we see David get into a heated confrontation with Nabal (Laban spelled backwards). Nabal's name means Fool in Hebrew. After the confrontation, Nabal gets drunk at his party. The next morning, judgment comes and he dies. David then takes the widow, Abigail, and makes her his own wife. Notice, that Abigail was accompanied by five young women when David came with his Messengers.


Likewise, in Matthew 25, the Parable of the 10 Virgins, five of them were foolish and five were wise. The five wise virgins were prepared for the return of the bridegroom while the five foolish virgins missed His visitation. 


Now, Jesus, the greater David, came with his army to marry the Church in 70AD (Abigail/Five wise virgins). The foolish (Nabal), Old Covenant Temple system in 70AD drank the wrath of God and died.


1 Samuel 25:42 And Abigail hurried and rose and mounted a donkey, and her FIVE young women attended her. She followed the messengers of David and became his wife.


Matthew 25:6 But at midnight there was a cry, "Here is the bridegroom! Come out to meet him." Then all those virgins rose and trimmed their lamps. And the foolish said to the wise, "Give us some of your oil, for our lamps are going out."

13 Reasons Why a Spiritual Resurrection in 70 AD Should Be Considered Over a Physical Resurrection

13 Reasons Why a Spiritual Resurrection in 70 AD Should Be Considered Over a Physical Resurrection 1. When did the Old Testament (OT) Saints leave Sheol/Hades to go to Heaven? Surprisingly, many believe that the OT Saints went to Heaven at the Cross. This is not true. In Acts 2, we see that Christ the Greater David was the ONLY person granted a physical resurrection AND ascension. The physical resurrection and ascension of Christ in 30AD pointed as well as confirmed the spiritual resurrection of the OT saints in 70 AD. King David was still in his grave, not Christ. See Acts 2:22-34. When Christ ascended to Heaven in Acts 1:9-11, He ascended ALONE. Later, in Acts 7:60, when Stephen was stoned to death, it says he fell ASLEEP . It says NOTHING about his spirit going up to Heaven with the Lord.  This is especially confirmed if you read Psalm 31 in its full context. Otherwise, you are imposing something foreign into the text. In Matthew 27:51-53, there were a number of dead sain...

From Grave to Glory (G2G)-A Preterist Postmillennial Commentary-Revelation 12-22

Image
Revelation 12 V1-2: We see the same imagery of Joseph’s dream here in Genesis 37:9-11. Israel (representing Jerusalem as well in Matthew 2:18) is described as the Daughter of Zion-a dying mother; specifically, Rachel who died tragically during pregnancy. See Isaiah 50:1, 54:1-6, 66:7; Jeremiah 4:31; Micah 4:9-10; Galatians 4:27; Jeremiah 31:15; Matthew 2:18. Although Jerusalem will be destroyed, the remnant will represent a glimmer of hope similar to Benjamin and Christ's respective births. The woman clothed with the sun represents the exalted status of Israel among all nations. However, the moon is under her feet, which represents the waning status of the Old Covenant. The moon reflects light from the sun. The twelve stars represent the twelve tribes of Israel. The dying Daughter of Zion was about to give birth to Christ and the Church. V3: The Dragon’s seven heads have crowns at this time, which means the Roman Empire was in control. This represents Satan’s authority over the Rom...
