LESSON #11




LESSON OBJECTIVES



PICTURES OF 6000 AND 7000 YEARS IN THE BIBLE


A.  John 11 will outline events over six days

       1.  Lazarus is sick for 2 days (John 11:1,5-6)

       2.  Lazarus is dead for 4 days (John 11:39). Lazarus is resurrected after these six days (John 11:40-44)

            ---> After six days (6,000 years), the resurrection of the dead will take place. Martha referred to this when she said that she knew that Lazarus would rise again at the last day (John 11:24) which would be after 6,000 years or the beginning of the 7th day (the last day).

B.  Slaves worked for six years, the 7th year is freedom (Exodus 21:2)

            ---> This is a picture of man being slaves on earth (Genesis 3:17-19) to Satan and his kingdom because of sin (Romans 6:16, John 8:34) but will be free from him for 1,000 years (Revelation 20:2) during the millennial reign of Christ (Revelation 20:4).

           ---> God laid out that man should work six days (6,000 years) and the seventh day (Sabbath = Years 6,000 - 7,000) would be a time of rest both for man and the earth (Exodus 20:8-11).

C.  King Joash (a type of Yeshua/Jesus) was hidden in the temple of God for six years. At the beginning of the 7th year, Joash is crowned King of Israel (II Kings 11:1-4, 17-21).

           --->  This is a picture of Yeshua/Jesus being hid from ruling and reigning on the earth (physically) as King for 6,000 years. At the end of 6,000 years, He will be crowned King and rule and reign on the earth forever from that time (Revelation 5 - which is a Jewish coronation ceremony, Revelation 19:11-16).



UNDERSTANDING THE HEBRAIC CONCEPT OF
TYPES AND SHADOWS IN SCRIPTURE


D.  King Soloman (a type of Yeshua/Jesus) had six steps to this throne and the 7th step was his throne (II Chronicles 9:18).

           ---> We are climbing a stairway of six steps (6,000 years) in time until we reach the 7th step when Yeshua/Jesus will be crowned King on His throne in Heaven.

===>  King Solomon is a type of Yeshua/Jesus.

       1.  Solomon sat upon the throne of his father David (I Kings 2:12) and was given the throne of his father David (I Kings 3:6-7).

           ---> Yeshua/Jesus sat upon the throne of His father David and He was given the throne of His father David (Luke 1:30-32, Acts 2:29-30).

           ---> A term for Yeshua/Jesus is the Son of David (Matthew 12:23, Mark 10:47).

       2.  Solomon's kingdom was established greatly (I Kings 2:12) and his throne shall be established before the Lord forever (I Kings 2:45).

           ---> Yeshua's/Jesus' kingdom shall have no end (Luke 1:33, Isaiah 9:6-7).

       3.  Solomon reigned over all the kingdoms and they served Solomon all the days of his life (I Kings 4:21).

           ---> Yeshua/Jesus will rule over all the kingdoms and they shall serve Him forever.(Daniel 2:44, 7:14,27)

       4.  Solomon is Strong's Hebrew Concordance #8010, which means "Peaceful." #8010 is from which, in Hebrew, is shalom, which means "Peace."

           ---> Yeshua/Jesus is the "Prince of Peace" ... (Isaiah 9:6).

       5.  Solomon was King in the midst of his people (I Kings 3:7-8).

           ---> Yeshua/Jesus will be King in the midst of His people (Zechariah 2:10-11, Isaiah 12:6 = Psalm 89:18).

       6.  Solomon was the wisest man on earth (I Kings 3:5,9-13, 4:29-31, 10:23, II Chronicles 9:22-23).

           ---> It is wisdom to seek to know and understand God and His Kingdom. (Jeremiah 9:23-24).

           ---> Yeshua/Jesus is the wisdom of God (I Corinthians 1:24, Colossian 2:3, Luke 11:49).

       7.  Solomon built the temple and he had rest on every side (I Kings 5:2-4, 6:9,14).

           ---> Yeshua/Jesus will build the temple and have rest on every side (Zechariah 6:12-13). The Branch (Zechariah 6:12) is a term for Yeshua/Jesus (Isaiah 11:1,10).

       8.  Solomon was given wisdom and understanding to righteously judge good and evil. (I Kings 3:9-13).

           ---> Yeshua/Jesus has wisdom and understanding to righteously judge good and evil.(Isaiah 11:1-6).

       9.  The whole earth sought Solomon to hear his wisdom (I Kings 10:24).

           ---> The whole earth will speak of the wisdom of Yeshua/Jesus during the millennium.(Psalm 145:1, 11-13).

      10.  During the reign of Solomon, every man was "under his vine and fig tree" (I Kings 4:25).

           ---> "Under his vine and under his fig tree" is an "IDIOM" referring to the 1,000 year millennium.

           ---> During the millennial reign of Christ, every man will sit "Under his vine and under his fig tree" (Micah 4:3-4).

E.  John 1 - John 2:1 will outline events which happen over 7 days.

       1.  John 1:19 = Day #1
       2.  John 1:29 = Day #2
       3.  John 1:35 = Day #3
       4.  John 1:43 = Day #4 ... (Yeshua/Jesus will go forth into Galilee)

            ---> Day #4 is a picture of 4,000 years. Galilee in the Strong's Hebrew Concordance is #1551, which means ... "a circle."

                   A circle is a synonym for heaven (Isaiah 40:22).

            ---> This is a picture of Yeshua/Jesus coming from heaven (Galilee), after 4,000 years, to the earth at his 1st coming.

       5.  John 2:1 ... The third day (after the 4th day) = 7th day there was a wedding

            ---> This is a picture that after 6,000 years, or the start of the 7th day, the believers will be caught up into heaven and be at the wedding of the Messiah.

F.  Joshua 3 is a picture of events over 6,000 years

      ===> Joshua is a type of Yeshua/Jesus. Joshua will lead the people to the promised land.

      ===> Joshua (Strong's Hebrew Concordance #3091)
                Jesus (Greek #2424 --> In Hebrew #3091 = Yehoshua/Yeshua = Joshua)

       1.  Joshua 3:1 = Day #1

       2.  Joshua 3:2-3 = After three days (Day #4), the people cross the Jordan

            ---> After 4,000 years, Yeshua/Jesus will come to earth.

       3.  Joshua 3:3-4 ... When you see the ark of the covenant, they stayed away from the ark for 2,000 cubits

            ---> Israel will not receive Yeshua/Jesus (as a corporate nation) for 2,000 years after His 1st coming, but will during the tribulation (Hosea 6:1-2, 3:4-5)

                  Hosea 3:5 = Latter days = Acts 2:1-4,14-17 = Last 3 days or 3,000 years of God's 7,000 year redemptive plan.

       4.  Joshua 3:5 ... Sanctify yourselves for TOMORROW the Lord will do wonders among you.

            Joshua 3:7 ... The Lord said to Joshua, THIS DAY will I begin to magnify thee in the sight of all of Israel ....

            ---> The TOMORROW and the THIS DAY = Four days + 2,000 cubits or 6,000 years. After 6,000 years, the Lord will magnify Yeshua/Jesus in the sight of all of Israel during the tribulation.

G.  The birth of Ya'acov/Jacob is a picture of the 6,000 years

      --->  Jacob is Israel (Genesis 32:27-28)

       1.  Yitzchak/Isaac is 40 years old when he marries Rebekah (Genesis 25:20).

            ---> Yeshua/Jesus will come to earth after 4,000 years

       2.  Rebekah will be barren for 20 years before Jacob (Israel) is born (Genesis 25:21,26).

            ---> After 20 years (2,000 years), Rebekah bears Jacob. This is a picture that after 2,000 years after Yeshua/Jesus' 1st coming, Israel will accept Yeshua/Jesus as Messiah (John 1:12) and become "born again."
