In verses 10-13 in this chapter (by the way, this chapter is found in pages 55-56 of my NKJV Bible, pages 71-72 of my NASB Bible, pages 119-120 of my VOICE copy, and pages 116-117 of my Amplified Bible (Classic Edition) copy), we notice the twelve stones of Israel’s tribes 🇮🇱 and it reminded me of Revelation 21 where the stones were mentioned again. Man, it’ll be great when we party with Jesus forever! I don’t want to beat you over the head with this truth, though, and it’s obvious that eternity has been ruined for many people, but to clear a few things up, it won’t be an endless music-by-the-harp-wearing-wings-and-a-dress sort of thing. That’s not biblical. But more of that in the next post, where we end Exodus and I write a forewarning about how to read the next three books. For now, though, I can’t help but thank God for the fact this project (read from chapter 25) was done with excellence (Exodus 39:43, VOICE)!
The only other thing I can say today (I have work at 🕕 am tomorrow and it’s after 🕘 pm right now in Arizona) is that this was the start of something great for the Israelites. Of course, it tanked, but Jesus was and still is able to make anyone a new creation (2 Corinthians 5:17). But more than 1,400 years would elapse between this and Jesus’ life, death, and resurrection. Still, I’ll see you in the next post! Ciao!
