THE DAY OF ATONEMENT, THE ASCENSION AND THE SECOND COMING (Rev. 20 continued)

The Ascension and the Second Coming of YaHUsha align beautifully with the foreshadowing found in the Day of Atonement (Leviticus 16), as well as with Revelation 20:9–15 regarding the Second Coming.

On the Day of Atonement, it was the High Priest who had to make atonement for the sins of the entire nation.  When he entered the Most Holy Place, he “disappeared” from the view of the people, just as YaHUsha disappeared with His Ascencion while His disciples stood watching.

The Ascension marked the moment when YaHUsha (as our Great High Priest) entered the heavenly Most Holy Place as the “Atonement for us.”

In the eyes of the world, however, He is “gone,” yet He is actively performing His High Priestly service for us in the heavenly Tabernacle.

If the Ascension was the “entering of the Most Holy Place,” then the Second Coming is the “coming out” from it — or the “appearing “— much like Aaron would repeatedly emerge from the Most Holy Place while the people waited for him in suspense.

DIE GROOT VERSOENDAG, HEMELVAART EN DIE WEDERKOMS  (Open. 20 vervolg)

Die Hemelvaart en die Wederkoms van JaHUsha sluit baie mooi aan by die skaduwee van die Groot Versoendag in Lev. 16, sowel as by Open. 20:9 – 15 wat die Wederkoms betref.

Op die Groot Versoendag is dit die Hoëpriester wat bemiddeling vir die hele volk se sondes moes doen. Wanneer hy die Allerheiligste binnegegaan het, het hy wat die Volk betref “verdwyn”, soos wat JaHUsha verdwyn het terwyl Sy  dissipels nog staan en kyk het.

Die Hemelvaart was die oomblik toe JaHUsha (as ons Groot Hoëpriester) die hemelse Allerheiligste binnegegaan het as “Versoening vir ons”.

In die oë van die wêreld is Hy egter “weg”, maar Hy is besig om Hoëpriesterlike se diens vir ons te verrig in die hemelse Tabernakel.

As Hemelvaart die “binnegaan van die Allerheiligste” was, dan is die Wederkoms die “uitkom” daaruit, of dan die “verskyning” soos wat Aäron telkens uit die Allerheiligste gekom het terwyl die Volk in spanning vir hom gewag het.

THE BOOK OF DANIEL: THE PROPHECY THAT GAVE THE EXACT YEAR OF THE MESSIAH

The Book of Daniel contains a prophecy most people have never examined carefully — and it gives a specific number of years, from a specific historical decree, to the arrival of a specific person.

When you run the math, it lands on the exact generation of YaHUsha of Nazareth.

In this video, we walk through Daniel chapter 9, verses 24–27 — the prophecy of the 70 Weeks — line by line, in the original Hebrew.

We trace the timeline from the decree to rebuild Jerusalem under Artaxerxes in 445 BC, through 483 prophetic years, to the moment YaHUsha rode into Jerusalem.

We examine why ancient rabbis tried to stop people from reading it, why the Dead Sea Scrolls contain more copies of Daniel than almost any other book, and what the phrase “cut off, but not for himself” reveals about the nature of the Messiah’s death — written five centuries before the cross.

If you’ve heard the story of Daniel but never looked at the numbers, this is where it gets real.

REFLECTION ON THE THOUSAND YEARS

We get the idea of ​​a period of a thousand years from Revelation 20.  This is accompanied by:

1.  the binding and loosing of the devil (verses 1 – 3),

2.  the reign of YaHUsha as Messiah with the martyrs (verses 4 – 6),

3.  the first resurrection (verses 5 – 6),

4.  Gog and Magog (verses 7 – 10) and

5.  the Second Death (verses 6, 11 – 15).

INTRODUCTION

To interpret the thousand years, one must understand how the background of the book of Revelation relates to the rest of Scripture.  The first and last books of Scripture (Genesis and Revelation) are often described as the two “bookends” of the Bible.  Like bookends at the beginning and end of a series of books, these two books hold together the whole of biblical truth.

Therefore, there are many direct aspects from Genesis that appear again in Revelation as mirror images.  Genesis shows us how everything was created and then “broke”, while Revelation depicts how YaHUaH Elohim restores everything.  One can then summarise the entire Bible in a nutshell as follows:

1.  Genesis:  Creation and the Fall

2.  Rest of the Bible:  YaHUaH Elohim’s plan of salvation

3.  Revelation:  Restoration of all

Revelation as the last book then involves the end and final restoration of all after a long preceding struggle.  However, it is an apocalyptic writing and therefore it is extremely symbolic due to the much imagery.  The meaning of this imagery must then be obtained from the preceding rest of Scripture, because as seen above, it is not independent.

BESINNING OOR DIE DUISEND JAAR

Ons kry die idee van ‘n tydperk van ‘n duisend jaar vanuit Openbaring 20.  Dit gaan gepaard met:

1) die bind en ontbind van die duiwel (vers 2 – 3),

2) die heerskappy van JaHUsha as Messias saam met die martelare (vers 4 – 6),

3) die eerste opstanding (vers 5 – 6),

4) Gog en Magog (vers 7 – 10) en

5) die Tweede dood (vers 6, 11 – 15)

INLEIDING

Om die duisend jaar te kan interpreteer moet mens verstaan hoe die agtergrond van die boek van Openbaring verband hou met die res van die Skrif.  Die eerste en laaste boeke van die Skrif (Genesis en Openbaring) word dikwels beskryf as die twee“boekstutte”van die Bybel.  Soos boekstutte aan die begin en einde van ’n ry boeke, hou hierdie twee boeke die hele Bybelse waarheid bymekaar.   

Daarom is daar vele direkte aspekte uit Genesis wat weer in Openbaring verskyn as spieëlbeelde.  Genesis wys vir ons hoe alles geskape was en toe “gebreek het”, terwyl Openbaring uitbeeld hoedat JaHUaH Elohiem alles weer herstel.  Mens kan die hele Bybel dan in ‘n neutedop sò opsom:

  1. Genesis:  Skepping en die sondeval
  2. Res van die Bybel:  JaHUaH Elohiem se plan van verlossing
  3. Openbaring:  Herstelling van alles

Openbaring as die laaste boekstut behels dan die einde en finale herstelvan alles nà ‘n lang voorafgaande stryd.  Dis egter ‘n apokaliptiese skrywe en daarom is dit uiters simbolies weens die baie beeldspraak.  Hierdie beeldspraak se betekenis moet dan vanuit die voorafgaande res van die Skrif gekry word, want soos hierbo gesien is dit nie losstaande nie.

SCOFIELD’S INTERPRETATION OF GOG AND MAGOG

The popular view of who Gog is comes from C.I. Scofield's Reference Bible which has been reprinted many times.

It divides the Bible into dispensations which are not in harmony with the Truth of the Word.

Before Scofield, Darby was the original author of this 'System of Dispensations'.

Scofield's dispensations go hand in hand with Zionism.

But what does the Word really say about Gog and Magog and what was the view before Scofield and Zionism.

SCOFIELD SE INTERPRETASIE VAN GOG EN MAGOG

Die gewilde siening oor wie Gog is, is afkomstig van C.I. Scofield se Refence Bible wat al baie herdruk is.

Dit verdeel die Bybel in dispensasies wat nie strook met die Waarheid van die Woord nie.

Voor Scofield was Darby die oorspronklike outeur van die hierdie ‘Stelsel van Dispensasies’.

Scofield se dispensasies loop hand aan hand met Sionisme.

Maar wat sê die Woord oor Gog en Magog en wat was die siening vòòr Scofield en Sionisme.

IS GEN. 15 SE GRONDGEBIED VIR EWIG

Gen. 15:18  Op dié dag het JaHUaH met Abram ‘n verbond gesluit en gesê:  Aan jou nageslag geeEk hierdie land, van die rivier van Egipte af tot by die groot rivier, die Eufraatrivier:

Die evangelie in die Nuwe Testement rus op hierdie Verbond in Gen. 15 as ‘n fondasie en word dit dan ‘n “Ewige Verbond” genoem.  

Maar kom ons kyk na die woordjie ‘ewig’.  Dit is die Hebreeuse woord ‘olam’ en het nie altyd die betekenis van ‘n oneindigheid wat nooit ophou nie, maar dit  beteken heel partykeer ‘n langdurige tyd wat “buite sig” is, in ander woorde: ‘n onbepaalde lang tyd

Orals waar ‘Olam’ gebruik is, beteken dit dan nie noodwendig bloot ‘oneindigheid’ nie.    As iets wel oorgedra is vanuit die O.T. na die N.T., ja dan is dit wel ter sprake.  As dit nie oorgedra is nie, dan word daardie aspek in die N.T. egter geestelik vervul, soos hier met die geografiese gebied wat aan Abraham en sy nageslag belowe is.

In die Nuwe Testament sien ons dat die fokus  vanaf ‘n geografiese gebied verskuif het na …. ‘n Persoon, nl. JaHUsha Messias en Hy het die Hemelse koninkryk verkondig … nie die aardse nie.  Die Koninkryk van die Hemel is geestelik, net soos wat die “sterre van die hemel”-nageslag geestelik is.  Die dissipels het gesukkel om dit te verstaan.

IS THE TERRITORY OF GEN. 15 ETERNAL

Gen. 15:18  In the same day YaHUaH made a covenant with Abram, saying, Unto thy seed have I given this land, from the river of Egypt unto the great river, the river Euphrates

This covenant was sealed with blood (verse 9 – 12), and there was also a promise of offspring who would be “like the stars of heaven” (verse 5).  In Gen. 17:7 this is called an everlasting covenant.

But let us look at the word “everlasting.”  It is the Hebrew word ‘olam’, which does not always mean an infinity that never ends, but it can also mean a long duration of time that is “out of sight,” in other words, an indefinite long period.

Wherever ‘olam’ is used, it does not necessarily then simply mean ‘infinity’.   But if something is indeed carried over from the Old Testament to the New Testament, then it applies.  If it is not carried over, then that aspect is spiritually fulfilled in the New Testament –  as it is the case with the geographical territory promised to Abraham and his descendants.

In the New Testament the focus shifts from a geographical territory to … a Person, namely YaHUsha the Messiah.  He proclaimed the Heavenly kingdom … not an earthly one.  The Kingdom of Heaven is spiritual, just as the “stars of heaven” offspring is spiritual.  The disciples struggled to understand this.

YAHUAH IS MY BANNER

YaHUaH has hidden symbolic “word pictures” in Scripture that depict the core truths of our faith, especially in the first five books which Moses recorded.  It is like hidden gems within the written history.  

We must therefore not only read literally, but we must also read the word pictures, as they confirm and unfold the New Testament.  It serves as prophecies about YaHUsha as Messiah, His Kingdom of Heaven as well as of a Spiritual Israel as His people. 

These word pictures enable us to understand a spiritual truth by means of the known physical history, as the physical is a shadow image of the spiritual (cf. 1 Cor. 10:11).

In Ex. 17:8 – 16 Moses sits on the rock with his raised staff.  From this depiction we get an important truth about what YaHUsha came to do for us which must be held high like a Banner.
