What God remembered

 

After examining the Fall Feasts in “How does God fulfill Yom Kippur” a look at what God remembered is in order.

Here is an interesting symmetry.

 

Something is being remembered in all of the Fall Feasts.  Need God remember any thing?

 

God remembered Noah Gen 8:1

God remembered Abraham regarding Lot Gen 19:29

God remembered Rachel (flock, ewe/female from a root meaning journey/ the traveling flock, the virgins) Gen 30:22

God remembered His covenant with Abraham with Isaac and Jacob Exo 2:24

 

So we have Noah, Lot, a traveling flock, and the Abrahamic Covenant.  The order is interesting. 

 

Noe/Noah

Mat 24:27-28

Luke 17:26-27

 

Lot

Luke 17:27-8

 

The traveling flock seems to be the bride.church.  It is mentioned after Noah and Lot in Jesus’ discussion of end times as the virgins in Mat 25.

 

Noah, Lot and the traveling flock appear in the same order as the things which God remembers.  The verse of the Abrahamic covenant is out of this order coming first in the Gospels in a chapter just prior to the end times discussion.

 

The Abrahamic covenant is mentioned in three Gospels: in each case in a chapter just prior to Jesus’ discussion of the end times: in each case mentioning the raising of the dead.

Mat 22:32

Mark 12:26

Luke 20:37

Acts 7:32-A similar mention to the above three; this time coming just before Phillip (meaning friend of horses, like Revelation?) is transported away from the eunuch in Ch 7 and in Ch 8 Saul has the Damascus road experience.  The total picture here would seem to be the removal of the church with a result of the scales falling off of the eyes of the Sadducee/Hebrew nation.

 

Does the raising of the dead occur before the sudden destruction?

Is more there?
