Bible Question: Thank you for your thoughts.Was some messianic prophecy fulfilled in this particular episode? |
Bible Answer: Except for the promise that the Coming One would be God Himself, I can't think of one. But note that most messianic prophacies are not of the kind that follow a strict prediction/fulfillment pattern. The vast majority are images, shadows, and types. Every item in the tabernacle represents Christ. The lampstand; the light of the world. The table of bread; the bread of life. The ark of the covenant; the glory of God made present. The altar; the place of atonement. The laver; streams of living water. See? Christ's fulfilment of the Old Testament goes far beyond being the specific fulfillment of specifically messianic prophacies. He is the fulfillment of all of history. |
