I guess my question would be to you,,,,,WHY would Jesus be from the line of Moses and not David? Just want to know why your mind even thinks in these circles?
It is all about His time. A time to heal a time to kill ,a new season had come called a reformation restoring to another time period.
Ecc 3:1 To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven:
I would offer, for one thing there are two kinds of seeds given in the two different genealogies. The seed Christ is in respect to that not seen, the spiritual seed, as in one.
It represents the generation of Christ in respect to the Spirit of Christ, the incorruptible Spirit by which all men, Jew and gentile alike are born again.(no difference) having nothing to do with that seen .
Romans 8:9 But ye are
not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if so be that the
Spirit of God dwell in you. Now if any man have not the
Spirit of Christ, he is
none of his.
Galatians 3:16 Now to Abraham and
his seed were the promises made. He saith
not, And to seeds, as of many; but as of one, And to thy
seed, which is
Christ.
His seed.. Christ. Not Abrahams seeds according to the flesh (many) a outward Jew dead in his trespasses and sin.
Galatians 3:29 And if ye be
Christ's, then are ye Abraham's
seed, and heirs according to
the promise.
Again not seeds after the flesh.
Because Moses is used to represent the letter of the law as a parable he was not allowed to enter the promise land .The new Jerusalem prepared as the one bride of Christ .
Beginning with David (God's choice) having failed with their own choice Saul.This is seeing the Jews had rejected God as King walking by faith (the unseen) and wanted to have the same kind of foundation of the Pagan surrounding nations (walking by sight) He gave them over temporally to do that which they should not of to begin with . (reject Him as King)
He used that
time period as a parable/figure up until the first century reformation, when the ceremonial laws as shadows that spoke of the suffering of Christ before hand... became sight, the veil was rent . And ended the genealogy of Christ in respect to the new generation. The generation of Christ and not the generation of Adam in respect to the flesh of these bodies of death.
Now when these things were thus ordained, the priests went always into the first tabernacle, accomplishing the service of God.But into the second went the high priest alone once every year, not without blood, which he offered for himself, and for the errors of the people: The Holy Ghost this
signifying, (using that seen the temporal to reveal the unseen eternal) that the way into the holiest of all
was not yet made manifest, while as the first tabernacle was yet standing: Which was a figure
(parable) for
the time then present, in which were offered both gifts and sacrifices, that
could not make him that did the service perfect, as pertaining to the conscience;Which
stood only in meats and drinks, and divers washings, and carnal ordinances,
imposed on them "until the
time of
reformation."Heb 9:6
It was the time of great tribulation for the outward Jew, the trouble of Jacob the surplanter in respect to the outward flesh of a Jew. , natural converted man. The time period was restored to the time of the Judges .No outward representation as when God reigned as King in respect to those who did walk by faith and not by sight.
Some say the born again believer will not go through the tribulation. Preaching the gospel
brings tribulation.
And when they had
preached the gospel to that city, and had taught many, they returned again to Lystra, and to Iconium, and Antioch,Confirming the souls of the disciples, and exhorting them to continue in the faith, and that
we must through much tribulation enter into the kingdom of God.Act 14:22
A time to build a time to destroy
He hath made every thing beautiful in
his time: also he hath set the world in their heart, so that
no man can find out the work that God maketh from
the beginning to the end.
