Stages of Hebrew Marriage

1). Betrothal Stage - legal enactment initiated by the groom’s father pledging his son to a chosen girl. As part of the transaction a dowry was paid by the groom’s father.

For I am jealous for you with godly jealously. For I have betrothed you to

one husband that I might present you as a chaste virgin to Christ.

2 Corinthians 11:2

Just as He chose us in Him before the foundation of the world, that we should

be holy and without blame before Him in love.

Ephesians 1:3, 4

Christ Betrothed to the Church

Dowry Paid

For you were bought with a price; therefore glorify God in your body and in your spirit, which are God’s.

1 Corinthians 6:20

Knowing that you were not redeemed with corruptible things, like silver or gold, from your aimless conduct received by tradition from your fathers, but with the

precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot.

1 Peter 1: 18, 19



2). Presentation Stage - Bridegroom would go with his friends to the bride’s house to escort her in a procession to her new home where a private marriage ceremony would be conducted.

Presentation Stage

In My Father’s house are many mansions; if it were not so I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and receive you to Myself;

that where I am, there you may be also.

John 14:2, 3



2). Presentation Stage - Bridegroom would go with his friends to the bride’s house to escort her in a procession to her new home where a private marriage ceremony would be conducted.

3). Celebration Stage - After the private wedding, the public celebration would begin, usually lasting seven days. The extent of the celebration was dependent upon economic status.

Celebration Stage

But I say to you, I will not drink of this fruit of the vine from now on until that day when I drink it new with you in the

My Father’s kingdom.

Matt 26:29

And I say to you that many will come from east and west, and sit down with Abraham, Isaac, and

Jacob in the kingdom of heaven.

Matt 8:11

For the Lord Himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of an archangel, and with the trumpet of God. And the dead in Christ will rise first. Then we who are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And thus we shall always be with the Lord

New Testament Expectations

Duration of the KingdomThen I saw an angel coming down from heaven, having the key to the bottomless pit and a great chain in his hand. He laid hold of the dragon, that serpent of old, who is the Devil and Satan, and bound him for a thousand years; and he cast him into the bottomless pit, and shut him up, and set a seal on him, so that he should deceive the nations no more till the thousand years were finished. But after these things he must be released for a little while. And I saw thrones, and they sat on them, and judgment was committed to them. Then I saw the souls of those who had been beheaded for their witness to Jesus and for the word of God, who had not worshiped the beast or his image, and had not received his mark on their foreheads or on their hands. And they lived and reigned with Christ for a thousand years. But the rest of the dead did not live again until the thousand years were finished. This is the first resurrection. Blessed and holy is he who has part in the first resurrection. Over such the second death has no power, but they shall be priests of God and of Christ, and shall reign with Him a thousand years. Now when the thousand years have expired, Satan will be released from his prison and will go out to deceive the nations which are in the four corners of the earth, Gog and Magog, to gather them together to battle, whose number is as the sand of the sea.

Revelation 20:1-7

General Characteristics of the Messianic Kingdom

Righteousness

Lord, who may abide in your tabernacle? Who may dwell on Your holy hill? He who walks uprightly, and works righteousness, and speaks the truth in his heart; he who does not backbite with his tongue, nor does evil to his neighbor, nor does he take up a reproach against his

friend; In whose eyes a vile person is despised, but he honors those who fear the Lord; he who swears to his

own hurt and does not change; he who does not put out his money at usury, nor does he take a bribe against the

innocent. He who does these things shall never be moved.

Psalm 15:1-5

Who may ascend into the hill of the Lord? Or who may stand in His holy place? He

who has clean hands and a pure heart, who has not lifted up his soul to an idol, nor

sworn deceitfully. He shall receive blessing from the Lord, and righteousness

from the God of his salvation.

Psalm 24:2-4


Prosperity

I will make them and the places all around My hill a blessing; and I will cause showers to come down in their season; there shall be showers of blessing. Then the trees of the field shall yield their fruit, and the earth shall yield her increase. They shall be safe in their land; and they shall know that I am the Lord, when I have broken the bands of their yoke and delivered them from the hand of those who enslaved them.

Ezekiel 34:26-27

I will raise up for them a garden of renown, and they shall no longer be consumed with hunger in the land, nor bear the shame of the Gentiles anymore. Thus they shall know that I, the Lord their

God, am with them, and they, the house of Israel, are My people,” says the Lord GOD.’”

Ezekiel 34:29-30

Behold, the days are coming,” says the Lord, “When the plowman shall overtake the reaper, and the treader of grapes him who sows seed; the mountains shall drip with sweet wine, and all the hills shall flow with it. I will bring back the captives of My people Israel; they shall build the waste cities and inhabit them; they shall plant vineyards and drink wine from them; they shall also make gardens and eat fruit from them.

Amos 9:13-14


Universal Peace

Now it shall come to pass in the latter days that the mountain of the Lord’s house shall be established on the top of the mountains, and shall be exalted above the hills; and all nations shall flow to it. Many nations shall come and say, “Come, and let us go up to the mountain of the Lord, to the house of the God of Jacob; He will teach us His ways, and we shall walk in His paths.” For out

of Zion shall go forth the law, and the word of the Lord from Jerusalem. He shall judge between the nations, and rebuke many

people; they shall beat their swords into plowshares, and their spears into pruning hooks; nation shall not lift up sword against

nation, neither shall they learn war anymore.

Isaiah 2:2-4

In that day I will make a covenant for them with the beasts of the field, with the birds of the air, and with the creeping things of the ground. Bow and sword of battle I will shatter from the

earth, to make them lie down safely.

Hosea 2:18

I will make a covenant of peace with them, and cause wild beasts to cease from the land; and they will dwell safely in the

wilderness and sleep in the woods.

Ezekiel 34:25

And they shall no longer be a prey for the nations, nor shall beasts of the land devour them; but they shall dwell safely, and

no one shall make them afraid.

Ezekiel 34:28

The wolf also shall dwell with the lamb, the leopard shall lie down with the young goat, the calf and the young lion and fatling together; and a little child shall lead them. The

cow and the bear shall graze; their young ones shall lie down together; and the lion shall eat straw like the ox.

The nursing child shall play by the cobra’s hole, and the weaned child shall put his hand in the viper’s den. They

shall not hurt nor destroy in all My holy mountain, for the earth shall be full of the knowledge of the Lord as the

waters cover the sea.

Isaiah 11:6-9


Renewed Earth

For behold, I create new heavens and a new earth; and the former shall not be remembered or come to mind. But be glad and rejoice forever in what I create; for behold, I create Jerusalem as a rejoicing, and her people a joy. I will rejoice in Jerusalem and joy in My people; the voice of the weeping shall no longer be heard in her, nor the voice of crying. No more shall an infant from there live but a few days, nor an old man who has not fulfilled his days; for the child shall die one hundred years old, but the sinner being one hundred years old shall be accursed. They shall build houses and inhabit them; they shall plant vineyards and eat their fruit. They shall not build and another inhabit; they shall not plant and another eat; for as the days of a tree, so shall be the days of My people, and My elect shall long enjoy the work of their hands. They shall not labor in vain, nor bring forth children for trouble; for they shall be the descendants of the blessed of the Lord, and their offspring with them.

Isaiah 65:17-25


Birth and Death

They shall not labor in vain, nor bring forth children for trouble; for they shall be the descendants of the blessed of the Lord, and their offspring with them.

Isaiah 65:23

No more shall an infant from there live but a few days, nor an old man who has not fulfilled his days; for the child shall die one hundred years old, but the sinner being one hundred years old shall be accursed.

Isaiah 65:20


Unbelief Among Gentiles Only

Behold, the days are coming, says the Lord, when I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah - 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, My covenant which they broke, though I was a husband to them, says the Lord. But this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days , says the Lord; I will put My law in their minds, and write it on their hearts; and I will be their God, and they shall be My people. No more shall every man teach his neighbor, and every man his brother, saying, “Know the Lord,” for they all shall know Me, from the least of them to the greatest of them, says the Lord. For I will forgive their iniquity, and their sin I will remember no more.

Jeremiah 31:31-34

For the Lord will be your everlasting light, and the days of your mourning shall be ended. Also your people shall all be righteous; they shall inherit the land forever, the branch of My planting, the work of My hands, that I may be glorified.

Isaiah 60:20-21


Instantaneous Response From God

It shall come to pass that before they call, I will answer; and while they are still speaking, I will hear.

Isaiah 65:24


Learning

Now it shall come to pass in the latter days that the mountain of the Lord’s house shall be established on the top of the mountains, and shall be exalted above the hills; and peoples shall flow to it. Many nations shall come and say,”Come, and let us go up to the mountain of the Lord, to the house of the God of Jacob; He will teach us His ways, and we shall walk in His paths.” For out of Zion the law shall go forth, and the word of the Lord from Jerusalem.

Micah 4: 1, 2

All your children shall be taught by the Lord, and great shall be the peace of your children. In righteousness you shall be established; you shall be far from oppression, for you shall not fear; and from terror, for it shall not come near you.

Isaiah 54: 13-14

Worship in the Messianic Kingdom

And it shall come to pass that everyone who is left of all the nations which came against Jerusalem shall go up from year to year to worship the King, the Lord of hosts, and to keep the Feast of Tabernacles.

David

But they shall serve the Lord their God, and David their king whom I will raise up for them.

Jeremiah 30:9

I will establish one shepherd over them, and he shall feed them - My servant David.He shall feed them and be their shepherd. And I, the Lord, will be their God, and My servant David, a prince among them; I, the Lord, have spoken.

Ezekiel 34:23, 24

David

David My servant shall be king over them, and they shall all have one shepherd; they shall also walk in My judgments and observe My statutes, and do them. Then they shall dwell in the land I have given to Jacob My servant, where your fathers dwelt; and they shall dwell there, they, their children, and their children’s children, forever; and My servant David shall be their prince forever.

Ezekiel 37:24, 25

For the children of Israel shall abide many days without king or prince, without sacrifice or sacred pillar, without ephod or teraphim. Afterward the children of Israel shall return and seek the Lord their God and David their king. They shall fear the Lord and His goodness in the latter days.

Hosea 3:4, 5

And on that day the prince shall prepare for himself and all the people of the land a bull for a sin offering.

Ezekiel 45:22

Thus says the Lord God: If the prince gives a gift of some of his inheritance to any of his sons, it shall belong to his sons; it is their possession by inheritance. But if he gives a gift of some of his inheritance to one of his servants, it shall be his until the year of liberty, after which it shall return to the prince. But his inheritance shall belong to his sons; it shall become theirs. Moreover the prince shall not take any of the people’s inheritance for his sons from his own property, so that none of My people may be scattered from his property.

Millennial Temple

1). Built by the Branch

Thus says the Lord of hosts saying: “Behold, the Man whose name is the Branch! From His place He shall Branch out, and He shall build the temple of the Lord. He shall bear the glory, and shall sit and rule on His throne. Zechariah 6:12, 13

2). Aided by the Gentiles

Even those from afar shall come and build the temple of the Lord.

Zechariah 6:15

Glory of the Lord Fills the Temple

Afterward he brought me to the gate, the gate that faces toward the east. And behold, the glory of the God of Israel came from the way of the east. His voice was like the sound of many waters; and the earth shone with His glory. It was like the appearance of the vision which I saw- like the vision which I saw when I came to destroy the city. The visions were like the vision which I saw by the river Chebar; and I fell on my face. And the glory of the Lord came into the temple by way of the gate which faces toward the east. The Spirit lifted my up and brought me into the inner court; and behold, the glory of the Lord filled the temple.

Ezekiel 43:1-5

Glory of the Lord Fills Temple

Now the cherubim were standing on the south side of the temple when the man went in, and the cloud filled the inner court. Then the glory of the Lord went up from the cherub, and paused over the threshold of the temple: and the house was filled with the cloud, and the court was full of the brightness of the Lord’s glory…Then the glory of the Lord departed from the threshold of the temple and stood over the cherubim. And the cherubim lifted their wings and mounted up from the earth in my sight…So the cherubim lifted up their wings, with the wheels beside them, and the glory of the God of Israel was high above them. And the glory of the Lord went up from the midst of the city and stood on the mountain, which is on the east side of the city.

Ezekiel 10:3, 4, 18, 19;11:22, 23

Millennial Temple

1). The temples of Solomon, Zerubbabel, and Herod do not share the design or dimensions of the Ezekiel temple.

2). The worship procedures in Ezekiel have not been followed historically.

3). The river that flows from the temple in chapter 47 has never flowed from any of the mentioned temples.

4). Geographical dimensions and tribal allotment have not occurred in the past.

Satan Released

Now when the thousand years have expired, Satan will be released from his prison and will go out to deceive the nations which are in the four corners of the earth, Gog and Magog, to gather them together to battle, whose number is as the sand of the sea. They went up on the breadth of the earth and surrounded the camp of the saints and the beloved city. And fire came down from God out of heaven and devoured them.

Then I saw a great white throne and Him who sat on it, from whose face the earth and heaven fled away. And there was found no place for them. And I saw the dead, small and great, standing before God, and books were opened. And another book was opened, which is the Book of Life. And the dead were judged according to their works, by the things which were written in the books. The sea gave up the dead who were in it, and Death and Hades delivered up dead who were in them. And they were judged each one according to their works. Then Death and Hades were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death. And anyone not found written in the Book of Life was cast into the lake of fire.

Then comes the end, when He delivers the kingdom to God the Father, when He puts an end to all rule and all authority and power. For He must reign till He has put all enemies under His feet. The last enemy that will be destroyed is death. “For He has put all things under His feet.” But when He says”all things are put under Him,” it is evident that He who put all things under Him is excepted. Now when all things are made subject to Him, then the Son Himself will also be subject to Him, who put all things under Him, that God may be all in all.
