WHAT JESUS SAID IN THE BIBLE

EXODUS  CHAPTER  12 12:11 - The Passover, type of Christ our Redeemer ( EXODUS  12:1__28;  JOHN  1:29;  1  CORINTHIANS  5:6__7 ). ( 1 ). - The lamb must be without blemish, and to test this it was kept up four days ( EXODUS  12:5__6 ). So our Lord's public life, under hostile scrutiny, was the testing which proved His holiness ( LUKE  11:53__54;  JOHN  8:46 ). ( 2 ). - The Lamb thus tested must be slain ( EXODUS  12:6;  JOHN  12:24 ).   ( 3 ). - The blood must be applied ( EXODUS  12:7 ). This answers to appropriation by personal faith, and refutes universalism ( JOHN  3:36 ). ( 4 ). - The blood applied of itself, without anything in addition, constituted a perfect protection from judgment ( EXODUS  12:13;  1  JOHN  1:7 ). ( 5 ). - The feast typified Christ the bread of life, answering to the memorial supper ( MATTHEW  26:26__28;  1  CORINTHIANS...

EXODUS  CHAPTER  4 4:6 - The sign of leprosy. The heart ( "bosom" ) stands for what we are, the hand of what we do. What we are, that ultimately we do. It is a sign of Luke  6:43__45. The two signs, rod and hand, speak of preparation, for service:  ( 1 ). - consecration__our capacity taken up for God:  ( 2 ). - the hand that holds the rod of God's power must be a cleansed hand swayed by a new heart ( ISAIAH  52:11 ). 4:21 - Exodus  8:15,  32;  9:34. In the face of the righteous demand of Jehovah and of the tremendous attestations by miracle that He was indeed God, and that Moses and Aaron were His representatives, Pharaoh "hardened his heart," Instrumentally God hardened Pharaoh's heart by forcing him to an issue, against which he hardened his own heart in refusal. Light rejected, rightful obedience refused, inevitably hardens conscience and heart. Romans  9:17__24. 4:24 - Genesis  17:14. The context ( verse  25 ) inter...

EXODUS  CHAPTER  2 2:2 - Moses, type of Christ the Deliverer ( ISAIAH  61:1;  LUKE  4:18 ).  ( 1 ). - A divinely chosen deliverer ( EXODUS  2:11__15;  ACTS  7:25;  18:5 ). ( 2 ). - Rejected by Israel he turns to the Gentiles ( EXODUS  2:11__15;  ACTS  7:25;  18:5 ).  ( 3 ). _ During his rejection he gains a Gentile bride ( EXODUS  2:16__21;  MATTHEW  12:14__21 ).  ( 4 ). - Afterward he again appears as Israel's deliverer, and is accepted ( EXODUS  4:29__31;  ROMANS  11:24__26 ).  ( 5 ). - Officially, Moses typifies Christ as Prophet ( ACTS  3:22__23 ), Advocate ( EXODUS  32:31__35 ), Intercessor ( EXODUS  17:1__6;  HEBREWS  7:25 ), and Leader, or King ( DEUTERONOMY  33:4__5;  ISAIAH  55:4 ); while, in relation to the house of God, he is in contrast with Christ. Moses was faithful as a servant over another's house; Christ as a Son...

GENESIS  CHAPTER  41 41:45 - Asenath, the Gentile bride espoused by Joseph the rejected one ( JOHN  19:15 ), type of the Church, called out from the Gentiles to be the bride of Christ during the time of His rejection by His brethren, Israel ( ACTS  15:14;  EPHESIANS  5:31__32 ). 43:34 - Genesis  35:18, note. It is important to observe that Benjamin now becomes prominent. Joseph is peculiarly the type of Christ in His first advent, rejection, death, resurrection, and present exaltation among the Gentiles, but unrecognized of Israel. As the greater Benjamin, "Son of sorrow," but also "Son of my right hand," He is to be revealed in power in the Kingdom ( GENESIS  1:26__28;  ZECHARIAH  12:8, note. It is then, and not till then, that Israel is to be restored and converted ( DEUTERONOMY  30:1__9, note ). Typically Genesis  45:1__2  anticipates the revelation prophetically described, Ezekiel  20:33__36;  Hosea...

GENESIS  CHAPTER  35 35:7 the God of Bethel. Genesis  28:19.  There it was the place as scene of the ladder-vision which impressed Jacob. He called the place "Bethel," the house of God. Now it is the God of the place, rather than the place, and he calls it El-Bethel, "the God of the house of God." Genesis  33:20. 35:14 The first mention of the drink-offering. It is not mentioned among the Levitical offering of  Leviticus  1__7,  though include in the instructions for sacrifice in the land ( NUMBERS  15:5__7 ). It was always "poured out," never drunk, and may be considered a type of Christ in the sense of Psalm  22:14;  Isaiah  53:12. 35:18 son of my right hand. Benjamin, "son of sorrow" to his mother, but "son of my right hand" to his father, becomes thus a double type of Christ. As Ben-oni He was the suffering One because of whom a sword pierced His mother's heart ( LUKE  2:35 ); as Benjamin, head to the warrior...

GENESIS  CHAPTER  32 32:28 Both names are applied to the nation descended from Jacob. When used characteristically "Jacob" is the name for the natural posterity of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob; "Israel" for the spiritual part of the nation. Isaiah  9:8.  The "word" was sent to all the people. "Jacob," but it "lighted upon Israel" was comprehended by the spiritual part of the people. See "Israel" ( GENESIS  12:2__3;  ROMANS  11:26 ). GENESIS  CHAPTER  29 29:1 Jacob at Haran becomes a striking illustration, if not type, of the nation descended from him in its present long dispersion. Like Israel, he was:  ( 1 ). Out of the place of blessing ( GENESIS  26:3 );  ( 2 ). without an alter ( HOSEA  3:4__5 );  ( 3 ). gained an evil name ( GENESIS  31:1;  ROMANS  2:17__24 );  ( 4 ). but was under the covenant care of Jehovah ( GENESIS  28:13__14;  ROMANS  11:1;  25:30 );  ( 5 )....

GENESIS  CHAPTER  25 25:1 As Sarah stands for "the mother of us all," of those who by grace, are one with the true Son of promise, of whom Isaac was the type ( JOHN  3:6__8;  GALATIANS  4:26,  28__29 - HEBREWS  2:11__13 ); and joint heirs of His wealth ( HEBREWS  1:2;  ROMANS  8:16__17 ), so Keturah ( wedded after the full blessing of Isaac ) and her children by Abraham may well stand for the fertility of Israel and natural seed, Jehovah's wife ( HOSEA  2:1__23 ) after the future national restoration under the Palestinian covenant ( DEUTERONOMY  30:1__9 ). 25:25 Esau stands for the mere man of the earth ( HEBREWS  12:16__17 ). In many respects a noble man, naturally, than Jacob, he was destitute of faith, and despised the birthright because it was a spiritual thing, of value only as there was faith to apprehend it. 25:31 The "birthright" had three elements:  ( 1 ) Until the establishment of the Aaronic priest...
