The "Marriage of the Lamb." A very interesting, but vital aspect of the analogy of the marriage of the lamb, as detailed in the Revelation text, is that the focus of this wedding is not on the bride, but the focus is on the groom. While the grand event of a wedding in the modern era is much anticipated by the bride, this wedding and the consummation of the hopes and long term wait is greatly anticipated by the groom (Yahshua). More importantly the consummation of the plan of the eternal Father for his son, was arranged before the Foundation of the World. (Ephesians. 1:4) The "Marriage of the Lamb" is the consummation of the joy of Messiah as a man. It would not have been possible if Messiah had not been born IN the Flesh. Otherwise it would have been the union of dissimilar natures, for the Bride is of human origin. This is why Yahshua took His human nature back with Him to glory, and today we have in Heaven the MAN Yahshua Messiah. 1. Tim. 2:5. The Ancient Hebrew marriage custom, like all other Hebrew customs, were introduced by the Eternal as the true story played out over the centuries, year by year, to illustrate to common man the plan of salvation for the people of this planet. Paul told us in 2 Corinthians 10:11 that all the things Israel experienced was an example to us and for our admonition. In this study, we will use the ancient Hebrew wedding custom as a template and to it we will overlay this tradition with the plan of salvation. We will show how the Almighty played out this series of events using the Nation of the Children of Israel as an example of his bride. He demonstrates how his people, the bride, is to honor the covenant agreement with Him.
