Royal Covenant Ceremony. Jesus perfectly operates as the King, High Priest, Giver of Gifts, and Maker of the covenant bread and wine.

Blah blah blah.

Continuous Blessing: Jesus did not finish the blessing before ascending; his hands remained raised, symbolizing an ongoing blessing for his followers.
Dig
On that?

 

[frederickdoc]

Ephesians 4:8, that when Jesus ascended, He "gave gifts unto men." The greatest gift was Himself—offered as Prophet (the Word), Priest (the Sacrifice), and King (the Ruler), completely symbolized by the bread, wine, flesh, and blood

Continuous Blessing:
Jesus did not finish the blessing before ascending; his hands remained raised, symbolizing an ongoing blessing for All his followers.

Scripture says nothing about Jesus’ hands remaining raised.

One does not rightly interpret Scripture that doesn’t exist.

 

[frederickdoc]

Scripture says nothing about Jesus’ hands remaining raised.

Bibles say he raised his hands and blessed them .the blessing was still happening while he was ascending.

he lifted up his hands, and blessed them.
51 And it came to pass, While He Blessed Them, he was parted from them, and carried up into heaven.

And when he had spoken these things, while they beheld, he was taken up; and a cloud received him out of their sight.

Prove it your not the last word

A true High priest Always raised His Hands.

And still you can't follow along

Still your commends do no justice

I tried
best you try harder or just let off threads
up to you

 

[DavidLamb]

Thats the point, give it All
thread is about the king bring gifts
let's get back to it now
The king brings Bread & Wine that is to Abraham was blessed by the king . He gave 10% of the victory spoils so happen it called tithe. The bread and wine gift and blessing now is He want the whole victory spoils of each and everyone one of Us! Let just call it All instead of tithe.but no one even look at scriptures to compaired the king gift ot nt. Think I don't know tithe means or base standard of Abraham offering .do you own work don't talk about what you think you see look for what you don't see set the standard of All

OK, fair enough, I apologise for going off-topic. I would just say that it was you that brought up the matter of the widow bringing a tithe. I responded to that.

 

[DavidLamb]

Mans Wisdom is.....dry
means Dead
I totally Agree with the Lord

I agree with the Lord too. Writing posts in normal English that others can understand is not dry, or dead, or disagreeing with the Lord.

That is a beautiful and widely held theological conclusion. The language of the King James Version powerfully supports this exact view of a continuous, unending blessing.

How the KJV text shows this:

• The Grammar of "While": Luke 24:51 KJV says, "And it came to pass, while he blessed them, he was parted from them..." The word "while" emphasizes that the action of blessing was actively happening at the exact moment of departure. It was Never interrupted or completed.
• The Final Image: Because S Cloud received Him out of their sight (Acts 1:9 KJV), the very last physical image the disciples ever saw of Jesus was with His hands raised high in favor over them.

Here is the last blessing in print just before he raised his hands
Jesus spoke immediately before lifting His hands: [1]

"But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth.

Since Jesus is of The Highest Order
Let's go and look back now Abram and look at that blessing w/High priest hands raised up . relevant maybe irrelevant to many

 

[frederickdoc]

Jesus did not call the widow's gift a tithe. The point Dino246 made was that the word "tithe" means a tenth. In very old English, there was no such word as "tenth". The word used was "tithe." That word is still used today in many English Bible translations. Some translations actually use the word "tenth". For example:

(Luk 11:42 ISV) "How terrible it will be for you Pharisees! You give a tenth of your mint, spices, and every kind of herb, but you neglect justice and the love of God. These are the things you should have practiced, without neglecting the others.

The widow didn't give a tithe, a tenth. She gave all that she had.

Freewill offering as you know it was her last money all she had just an example why we stuck there get to topic don't you think about everything as a whole book can't contain all tiny details u have to vision what the written describing . And as you can see there are four versions of one gospel . But why am I telling you that

 

[frederickdoc]

Your barely coherent blather seems to suggest that I seek the accolades of popularity. You would be wrong.

That's all you ever talk about yourself listen how others don't make your standard and you got your little thumbs up people right behind you

 

[frederickdoc]

That's all you ever talk about yourself listen how others don't make your standard and you got your little thumbs up people right behind you

If you can't talk about a thread don't talk to me whether you black out understandingbor not it's always about what you think or pick out and don't say coherent in my text anywhere

 

[frederickdoc]

Tell that to Jesus and the old widow lady .You just missed the peace offering .you may not have gotten filled in the king gift So you you hold back. All 100% is the The victory of war .Seems you rather war again again just not interested in the kings gift .it there to see what you give in return

Blessed be Abram of the most high God, possessor of heaven and earth: And blessed be the most high God, which hath delivered thine enemies into thy hand."

 

[frederickdoc]

Well if it's written or not .chk this out. just by reading the blessing . Abram Abraham is blessed because He is friend of God and belongs to Him. That's 100% Blessing given .The victory that's like a consolation prize Of the material things tenth . The best part of the Blessing God is Blessed Glorified by his Authority Power

 

[DavidLamb]

Yes, I agree it was all she had, so it wasn't a tenth of what she had - it was not a tithe. A tithe is an old word for a tenth.

Yes, Jesus raising his hands at the Ascension connects directly back to this ancient priestly tradition. By doing this, Jesus was actively fulfilling the prophetic blueprint that Melchizedek and the Old Testament priests started. Abraham did as the king priest of Salem machesidek that is hand raise.

1. Fulfilling the "Order of Melchizedek"
The Book of Hebrews repeatedly states that Jesus is a high priest "after the order of Melchizedek" (Hebrews 5:6, 6:20).

• Melchizedek was the original King-Priest who blessed Abraham, the father of Israel.
• Jesus, as the ultimate King-Priest, uses that same authority to bless the spiritual descendants of Abraham (all believers).
• Raising the hands was the physical signature of a priest exercising his authority to dispense God's favor upon the people.
• The Link to the Aaron Blessing

In the Old Testament, the Aaron priesthood (established under Aaron) codified this physical gesture. In Leviticus 9:22 KJV, we see the exact same pattern Jesus used:

"And Aaron lifted up his hand toward the people, and blessed them, and came down from offering of the sin offering..."

Just as the earthly high priest lifted his hands to bless the congregation after a sacrificial offering, Jesus lifted his hands to bless his disciples right after completing his ultimate sacrifice on the cross.

3. The Unfinished Priest
There is one massive difference between the old priests and Jesus. Earthly priests eventually lowered their hands and stepped down. Because Jesus ascended into heaven while his hands were raised, he took that priestly posture into eternity. He entered the heavenly temple with His haynds still lifted in Blessing over his people church nation

This is exactly why the two Angels appeared to the disciples in Acts 1:11 KJV, telling them not to despair while looking up into the sky:

"This same Jesus, which is taken up from you into heaven, shall so come in like manner as ye have seen him go into heaven."

Just like the ancient High Priest, Jesus entered the heavenly veil with His hands raised, and He will one day emerge from that veil in glory to finalize His blessing on the world.
I don't know if I posted it but find in the Bible yourself when Aaron bless the people with his hands raised stayed raised until the glory presence of God came upon the people . I can see Jesus doing the Same amplified

I’ll grant your claim that Jesus’ hands remained raised as He ascended, but I yawn at your implication that the KJV is superior.

But other English translations also say the same thing. For example:

LSB (Luk 24:50) And He led them out as far as Bethany, and lifting up His hands, He blessed them.
(Luk 24:51) And it happened that while He was blessing them, He parted from them and was carried up into heaven.

NET
(Luk 24:50) Then Jesus led them out as far as Bethany, and lifting up his hands, he blessed them.
(Luk 24:51) Now during the blessing he departed and was taken up into heaven.

NKJV
(Luk 24:50) And He led them out as far as Bethany, and He lifted up His hands and blessed them.
(Luk 24:51) Now it came to pass, while He blessed them, that He was parted from them and carried up into heaven.

ESV
(Luk 24:50) And he led them out as far as Bethany, and lifting up his hands he blessed them.
(Luk 24:51) While he blessed them, he parted from them and was carried up into heaven.
