Hello
Here’s today’s nougat
… and one of the elders saith unto me, Weep not; behold, the Lion that is of the tribe of Judah, the Root of David, hath overcome to open the book and the seven seals thereof. Revelation 5:5 ASV
Let’s consider the name given to The One who can open the Book.
Lion … Loyal, fiersome warriot
Royalty, territorial one
Judah … Praises to YHWH
Root (of David) descendant of … (Davidic lineage)
Thus, the One who is authorized to open the scrolls is a warrior, descended from David and an effective warrior.
Furthermore, the terms also speak to the prophecies of Genesis 49 and 2 Samuel 7, indicating that Jesus fulfils the prophecies.
And yet, this Jesus makes time for each of us
I thank God for the gift of Jesus.
In Christ.
