Or that is, more Scriptural proof of Universal Repentence, Reconciliation, and Renewal.
I just realized an eschatological pattern I often think about is (of course!) very much reflected in the Book of Revelation.
The pattern is – the Fall Holy Days as the pattern of the Lord’s (long) 2nd advent, as the Spring ones were the (exact!) pattern of His first advent. — Look at that.. it’s a trumpet.. a telescoping (not unusual) from exact fulfillment of a pattern in a matter of days, via the first advent, to a much wider, centuries long, pattern fulfillment, via the second advent.
Or also the first advent – of a mere three and a half years (a 3.5) – and the long second advent – as a century and a half. [And note this (?) the years of our Lord, A.D. since His ascension to sometime around 2028-2033, plus the thousand years and a half of the long second advent comes to 3.5 centuries. I find that strange. (There is dispute as to which year the Lord was crucified. Prophet Hosea said “after two days He shall return”.)
The first advent pattern was exact! It’s hard to see however, what with holy week having three Sabbaths, and how First Day of Unleavened Bread was sometimes called Passover, and vice versa. And the days began/begin at sunset rather than at midnight.
The pattern of the Fall Holy Days, with the Book of Revelation:
First is “Trumpets” (of Revelation, and His return at the “last” one) — followed by 10 days/“the 1000yrs” to “Day of Atonement” being “the Judgment” (the Lord talked about) of “kolasis”/correction — consisting of? 500yrs (represented by 5 days) to “Tabernacles” which in Revelation, is after the “ALL in ALL” event of “making ALL things new when the Son hands the subdued “kosmos” to the Father – who is a consuming/purifying fire. After which, “God Himself will now – TABERNACLE – with man upon Earth made new”. — (The “elements” having “melted with a furious heat” at(?) the death of death and all its shadow. And that death of death is called the second death. The first one being the one of, and in Adam. (Rev.20:14)
Revelation 21:1-5; Leviticus 23
The premise being – Like He was the Passover Lamb, is the Unleavened/unchanged Bread, and is “the Firstfruits”—1 Corinthians 15:22(-28) – making those Spring Holy Days to be prophecy of His first advent, likewise, making the Fall Holy Days, and their pattern, to be prophecy which shall be fulfilled by His long second advent.
2 Peter 2:9 says – “..For God knows how to preserve the unrighteous for CORRECTION/kolazo on Day Of Judgment”. And Jesus said “all in the graves, will hear His voice and will come forth (from their graves) those who have done good in the resurrection of life, and those who have done evil in the resurrection of judgment.” (Of kolazo/correction. And discernment? Also a genuine interpretation of the word judgment.)
Matthew 13:33, as a key to 1 Corinthians 15:22-28? Key being “3”.
