1 | Ref to love slave in N.T. Is there any? | Ex 21:5 | ebrain | 165710 | ||
Hi Chris. Let me share something with you that the Lord showed me when I first read Ex 21:1-6, and also Deut 15:12-17. It was pointed out to me that the master is a type of God the Father, the servant a type of Jesus, the wife that the master gives to the servant, a type of the church (the bride of Christ). When the servant says "I love my master, my wife, and my children; I will not go out free". Then the master in effect says "you know that there is a price to pay don't you?" "yes I know that" says the servant. Very well then says the master, and he takes the servant to God ("the Judges", Amplified Bible), and from Judgment to a place symbolic of execution, the vertical wooden door post, the servant standing with his back to it, allows an awl (picture of a nail) to be driven right through his flesh into the woodwork. Jesus will serve the master forever, see 1st Cor 15:28. |
