Why Jesus is the Lamb in the Book of Revelation!

My beloved; the Lamb (The Risen Lord Jesus/Yeshua Messiah of Psalm 110:1) in the Book of Revelation is the ETERNAL propitiation and Savior of all and this is absolutely why the tribulation altar and the Holy of Holies will be Satan the Dragon's primary target for destruction and desolation in the seven-year tribulation period (Dan. 9:27; 12:7; Rev. 11:1-3). The altar at this time will point the post church world to Jesus’ Person and work!

The Tribulation altar will point back to the RIGHTEOUS Person and finished work of redemption by Yeshua !

Firstly, the altar points to Messiah’s (The Lamb of God’s) finished work and propitiation which offers ETERNAL salvation to all by faith in Him; not ETERNAL desolation; and this is why He (Jesus Messiah) is known as the LAMB in the Book of Revelation (Lev. 17:11-14; Isa. 53; John 19:30; Rom. 10:2-4; 1 John 4:10)! Secondly; Satan was ETERNALLY crushed and ETERNALLY defeated on Almighty God's altar and cross (Gen. 3:15; Heb. 2:14-15; Rev. 1:17-18; 20:10)!

Thirdly; Satan absolutely despises any work and promise of Almighty God and will with all his remaining rage and demonic being through his tangible host the antichrist with great fury seek to prevent Israel (and all nations) from coming to faith in Messiah; and will also seek to derail all of Almighty God's remaining promises for them in their ETERNAL Lamb and King (Dan. 9:24-27; 12:1-13; Zech. 13:8-9; 14:1-4; Rev. 12:7-17)! Lastly; Satan is on a total self-preservation mission and bent; knowing that his ETERNAL doom is very nigh and at hand (Rev. 12:7-17). All are expendable and all is on Satan's altar to preserve his demonic delusional dreams of ETERNAL rebellion against His ETERNAL RIGHTEOUS Creator (Isa 14:12-17; Ezek. 28:12-19; John 8:44; Rev. 12:12; 20:1-3; 20:10)! With the ETERNAL resurrection of Messiah, Satan was ETERNALLY defeated and nothing in all of ETERNITY can ever override and overturn that established ETERNAL ABSOLUTE and TRUTH (Isa. 45:23; Rom. 14:11; Phil. 2:5-11; Heb. 13:8)!

Beloved; in the end, King Jesus wins BIG, EVERY single time; and we who are in Christ Jesus should rejoice continually and always!

Beloved; at the end of Satan and man's vain little tiny rebellion, King Jesus ETERNALLY WINS and we who are in Christ Jesus should rejoice continually and always in that ETERNAL GLORIOUS TRUTH (Phil. 4:4)! In closing; do you personally know the Lord Jesus as your Lord and Savior? My dear friend, it is ALL about Jesus and His RIGHTEOUSNESS; Be sure that you personally know Jesus as the Scriptures so simply and clearly teach. Maranatha ☁️☝️☁️

That was just a representative photo I'd found of a lamb with its ear ID tag, being a most excellent analog for the "x marks the spot" image on the map.

NT verse-wise, street view pulls in these two together on one ID data point:

Galatians 3

16 Now to Abraham and his seed were the promises made. He saith not, And to seeds, as of many; but as of one, And to thy seed, which is Christ.
17 And this I say, that the covenant, that was confirmed before of God in Christ, the law, which was four hundred and thirty years after, cannot disannul, that it should make the promise of none effect.

So you've got "seed" not seeds, and a 430. And more.

See, you really have to know where and how to look. The trouble is -- for some odd, paradoxical reason -- a lot of observant people outside of Christianity insist on accepting Christian *doctrine* as the Gospel truth.

Really strange, because the same folks have a laundry list of all the kooky, unkosher ways Christians interpret the Hebrew text of the Bible to "support" their doctrines.

If they can't be trusted with Hebrew, why should they trusted with Greek? Or interpretations of important texts in general? Best to keep an eye out.

The actual Jesus of the NT really triggered the religious experts and their disciples, especially when he went 'Socratic Method' on them. After all, the doctrines were settled.

(Amazing what just sits there.)

Lavan lives on in the sheep-fleecing business. But that won't go on for too much longer. You saw how the same verse mentions that Rachel stole his idols.

She was truly a visionary, with a keen understanding of cause and effect.

Years back, I'd brought up the tradition that Jacob's curse was the reason that she died young.

Yet when there's a will there's a way, like the ruling about Ruth, a Moabit*ess* -- not guilty.

I'm not wandering off-track at all. I mention it because where are those eagle eyes when it comes to the exact wording of Jacob's curse?

With whom *you find* your teraphim...

Did Lavan find his idols with Rachel? Or with anyone else in Jacob's traveling party?

The scene was recorded for the historical record, so Moses knew, yet...?

Yet the curse was certainly valid. Jacob would not have said that if he knew Rachel had them, but she knew her man. And her father. It was a leap of faith in the predictable.

The "way of women"... Just because everyone (including her father, apparently) assume she meant it one way, leaving her be, doesn't mean she wasn't speaking about something else.

Conclusion-jumpers. So predictable. Shrug.

Just ask the disgruntled FReeper men about how wily the wimmenfolk are. They have so many stories.

Yet there's wily as in the malevolent-manipulative sort of clever, and then there's wily as in off-the-charts ingenious sort of clever. Jacob and Rachel were truly meant for each other. A Foxy Lady! Nice figure, the works. She even knew how to take care of bears. While lying on the side of the road. Just testing to see if you are still with me.

Rachel also knew how to present a compelling case to God for why it's the time to end the exile.

Going back to that story when circumstances were set up just so, so that Jacob pronounced a curse on whosoever Lavan would find with his idols, and...

The simple reality on the ground is that the people in possession of Lavan's teraphim are the ones who worship the same idols as Lavan, the Deceiver.

Birds of a feather. No need for him to even search through their stuff.

Deceptive people, because basically the MO of Establishments is to crank out perpetual schemes to heal the world, so they have to make sure it stays plenty sick and dependent all of the time.

Who ever noticed that the Mother of All Israel hatched a plan to take it all down. I trust the plan.

Rachel and Redemption go hand-in-hand.

Genesis 35:17 And it came to pass, when she was in hard labour, that the midwife said unto her, Fear not; thou shalt have this son also.

"Coming Soon!"

I asked Google and the AI response says

In Kabbalah, Isaac is associated with Gevurah (strength or severity) primarily due to his willing participation in the Binding of Isaac, which demonstrated immense self-discipline, awe, and strength.

***

This reasoning always seemed somewhat off to me.

It's not for me to argue about it; restraint, discipline, and severe judgment keep things in line. I don't think Tickle Me Elmo would fit in.

All I'm saying is that these traits go quite naturally with the meaning of דוד, "Uncle", and the meaning of Isaac's name:

"He will laugh."

This might not go over too well in the strict smile-free zones, but to paraphrase a well-known verse about judgment:

The next day John seeth Jesus coming unto him, and saith, Behold the Laugh of God, which taketh away the sin of the world.
