Bible Question (short): Will the time of the judges be restored? |
Question (full): Will the time of the judges be restored in Christ's future kingdom? When Christ chose twelve disciples, he fashioned this group after the structure of the twelve tribes of Israel, intending for the twelve disciples to lead twelve tribes, in future governmental authority. Indeed, sitting upon their twelve future thrones, it is quite likely that they shall even judge angels, and not only the combined nations of the earth. Of course, one of the apostles (Judas Iscariot) was lost, as symbolic also of the loss of the tribe of Benjamin in the last chapter of the book of Judges. |
