A True an Accurate Meaning of Passover part 2

This priest we also find in the Epistle of Hebrews and thereby ties all things together. For in the Old is hidden that which is now revealed through the New. Know this that the now revealed are and are only because of Revelation chapter 5 and Saul of Tarsus to whom one of the small books contents were revealed as the mysteries or secrets of Deuteronomy 29:29. Because the Prophets were not allowed to open them up for Israel's understanding until the end of it's allotted time which was the appearing of Jesus as the promised seed of woman and the fulfillment of days (as the everlasting, the end of days and as the for ever, of God) and all that had been written of or spoken of Him.

It is this asking for Truth that lead us to our study. When did I first ask for Truth and understanding on the night or evening of my entry into the armed forces. When I said the sinner prayer in the back cover of a small New Testament which had just been given me. Which by the way I singed and dated and which bible I still have, as it is my memorial. That was on September 16th, 1966 when I told the Lord after reading and then repeating the prayer out load that I did not fully understand His word and remained puzzled by it.

1Corithians 11:23-32
For I (Paul) have received* of the Lord that which also I delivered unto you, That the Lord Jesus the same night in which he was betrayed (as a innocent lamb before its shearers when they do their inspection) took bread (to lift up, to take up an away as the consummation or the bring to an end those things that had gone before): And when he had given thanks, he brake it, and said, Take, eat: this is my body (now Israel as a nation had broken the Covenants of promise, the Law and the Prophets and therefore God was not under any further obligation to them, but for Abraham and Isaac), which is broken for you: this do in remembrance (as a memorial) of me. After the same manner also he took the cup, when he had supped, saying, This cup is the new testament in my blood (is the inaugural of the New promised Covenant of Jeremiah. Which He as the fulness of the Godhead was in Him had the Authority and power to do): this do ye, as oft as ye drink it, in remembrance (as a memorial) of me. For as often as ye eat this bread, and drink this cup, ye do shew the Lord's death till he come*. Wherefore whosoever shall eat this bread, and drink this cup of the Lord, unworthily, shall be guilty of the body and blood of the Lord. But let a man examine himself, and so let him eat of that bread, and drink of that cup. For he that eateth and drinketh unworthily (without revelation does so as an anti-Christ and therefore), eateth and drinketh damnation to himself, not discerning the Lord's body (as such he does not acknowledge Jesus or here Christ, as his LORD of Lord's). For this cause many are weak and sickly among you, and many sleep. For if we would judge ourselves, we should not be judged. But when we are judged, we are chastened of the Lord, that we should not be condemned with the world.”

So who does the chastening? The Lord. Now look at Matthew 26:26-30; Mark 14:22-26 and Luke 22:14-23. We'll look at these before we move on. ( note for the * 1 Corinthians 15:3 and Psalm 24:1, 50:12) What is the cup? When checking this word we find the word “imbibe” which means: to receive, to absorb, to admit into ones mind and retain, and to drink in. This is then to partake of His flesh and blood not in a literal since or language of mere words but as figurative. Wherein we become one flesh and blood (Genesis 2:23) with Him. Because when we do we're said to have rightly divided His body as our own just as in a marriage relationship. So like all figurative language in scripture there is a deeper and in many cases spiritual meaning to words. They're there for our learning and instruction in righteousness. This is why we're admonished to study to show ourselves approved unto God, not man but rather God, as He alone see's our heart condition.

Matthew 26:26-30
And as they were eating, Jesus took bread, and blessed it, and brake it, and gave it to the disciples, and said, Take, eat; this is my body. And he took the cup, and gave thanks, and gave it to them, saying, Drink ye all of it*; For this is my blood of the new testament, which is shed for many for the remission of sins. But I say unto you, I will not drink henceforth of this fruit of the vine, until that day when I drink it new with you in my Father's kingdom. And when they had sung an hymn, they went out into the mount of Olives. “ (The hymns are found in Psalms 116, 117 and 118 and reveal allot of what is ahead)

Before we go to far Jesus in here as in Luke and Mark reveals Himself as the LORD of Psalm 148:5-6 and Psalm 2:6-8 which says this:
Let them praise the name of the LORD: for he commanded, and they were created. He hath also stablished them for ever and ever: he hath made a decree which shall not pass.”
 
Yet have I set my king upon my holy hill of Zion (spiritually speaking of the New Jerusalem the heavenly city not made by mans hands). I will declare the decree: the LORD hath said unto me, Thou art my Son; this day have I begotten thee (again we hear God's voice from heaven declaring this as recorded in the synoptic gospels and then in Hebrews by Paul). Ask of me, and I shall give thee the heathen for thine inheritance, and the uttermost parts of the earth for thy possession.”

He takes us back through time to the earliest recital of scripture as seen in Genesis to chapter 1:1-3 and which John records of Him in chapter 1:1-3, 14, 17-18.

*To take in the fullness of the New Covenant in abundance, “drink all of it” to get the full picture with a clear vision of understanding. When we partake of the fatness of the root of the vine we partake of the fullness of that vine and root which is Christ but the fatness is Abraham or faith as he is its symbol. As revealed in Romans 11 and Hebrews 11. For like Abraham we're told to walk by faith (as a darkness of night where there is no light to aid us in seeing) and we're led to faith by the Holy Spirit.
