Connections Between The Old And New Testament You Never Noticed. Part I

Caleb B. -

 
Introduction.
    This Article will be focused on this very interesting topic of Biblical Connections that you may have never seen when just reading the Scriptures or have never been told in Bible Studies. I personally do not remember being taught such things in my Lutheran Bible Classes, however those times were quite a while ago and there has been a period of time in which I had abandoned my faith because of my previous denomination. But now that I have come back to faith in a new light, I have been listening to many lectures and I have been discovering there are many connections between events in the Old and New Testaments that I had not previously realized. 

Section 1. The Biblical Connections
    17 After his return from the defeat of Chedorlaomer and the kings who were with him, the king of Sodom went out to meet him at the Valley of Shaveh (that is, the King’s Valley). 18 And Melchizedek king of Salem brought out bread and wine; he was priest of God Most High.

    The King and High Priest of God, Melchizedek, who is prefiguration of Christ here in Genesis takes bread and wine and blesses it before God. 
    26 Now as they were eating, Jesus took bread, and blessed, and broke it, and gave it to the disciples and said, “Take, eat; this is my body.” 27 And he took a cup, and when he had given thanks he gave it to them, saying, “Drink of it, all of you; 28 for this is my blood of the covenant, which is poured out for many for the forgiveness of sins. 29 I tell you I shall not drink again of this fruit of the vine until that day when I drink it new with you in my Father’s kingdom.”

    Jesus, who know is a Melchizedekian Priest, being both the Heavenly King and the Heavenly High Priest, takes bread and wine and blesses it. 
    After these things God tested Abraham, and said to him, “Abraham!” And he said, “Here am I.” 2 He said, “Take your son, your only son Isaac, whom you love, and go to the land of Moriah, and offer him there as a burnt offering upon one of the mountains of which I shall tell you.”

    We know Biblically where roughly this land and mountains of Moriah is. In 2 Chronicles 3:1 we are told that King Solomon built the Temple on the Mount of Moriah.  Keep this in mind. We see God telling Abraham to take his "only son whom you love" and to offer him as a burnt offering. Now I will be quoting from the NIV because it translates this next passage in a way that shows you the connection..
    16 As soon as Jesus was baptized, he came up out of the water. Then heaven opened, and he saw God’s Spirit coming down on him like a dove. 17 And a voice from heaven said, “This is my Son, whom I love, and I am very pleased with him.”

    We see God the Father, speaking from Heaven and speaks about Jesus as, "My Son, WHOM I LOVE." 
    6 And Abraham took the wood of the burnt offering, and laid it on Isaac his son; and he took in his hand the fire and the knife. So they went both of them together. 7 And Isaac said to his father Abraham, “My father!” And he said, “Here am I, my son.” He said, “Behold, the fire and the wood; but where is the lamb for a burnt offering?” 8 Abraham said, “God will provide himself the lamb for a burnt offering, my son.” So they went both of them together.

    Abraham places the wood on Isaac, and Isaac carries the wood on which he will be sacrificed upon, up the mountain in the range of Moriah. Jewish scholars and even the Targums agree that Isaac willing was going to what he thought was his death as an offering to God because He would have been in his teens because he was able to carry all this wood up a mountain and he had the ability to realize there was no lamb to be offered. And finally, we see Abraham saying that God will provide the LAMB for the offering. 
    28 This took place in Bethany beyond the Jordan, where John was baptizing. 29 The next day he saw Jesus coming toward him, and said, “Behold, the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world!

    Here we see Saint John the Baptist seeing Jesus walking around in Bethany and Saint John the Baptist calls Jesus the "LAMB OF GOD." 
    17 So they took Jesus, and he went out, bearing his own cross, to the place called the place of a skull, which is called in Hebrew Golgotha.

    Jesus bears the wood of His cross which was an offering, and He is offered, crucified, on the place called Golgotha. Golgotha is outside the city of Jerusalem, which mind you, the Temple in Jerusalem is on Mount Moriah, and Golgotha would have been somewhere within the Moriah mountain range, not far from presumably from where Isaac was to be offered up. 
    13 And Abraham lifted up his eyes and looked, and behold, behind him was a ram, caught in a thicket by his horns; and Abraham went and took the ram, and offered it up as a burnt offering instead of his son.

    Here we see God gives Abraham and Isaac a ram who's thorns which were on it's head were stuck in a thorn thicket. 
     Then Pilate took Jesus and scourged him. 2 And the soldiers plaited a crown of thorns, and put it on his head, and arrayed him in a purple robe;

    Jesus the Lamb of God, had a crown of THORNS on His head. 
    23 She conceived and bore a son, and said, “God has taken away my reproach”; 24 and she called his name Joseph, saying, “May the Lord add to me another son!”

    The Birth of Joseph Bar-Jacob; Bar-Isaac.
    16 and Jacob the father of Joseph the husband of Mary, of whom Jesus was born, who is called Christ.

    Now we see the Stepfather of Jesus, Joseph who is Bar-Jacob. 
    5 Now Joseph had a dream, and when he told it to his brothers they only hated him the more. 6 He said to them, “Hear this dream which I have dreamed: 7 behold, we were binding sheaves in the field, and lo, my sheaf arose and stood upright; and behold, your sheaves gathered round it, and bowed down to my sheaf.” 8 His brothers said to him, “Are you indeed to reign over us? Or are you indeed to have dominion over us?” So they hated him yet more for his dreams and for his words. 9 Then he dreamed another dream, and told it to his brothers, and said, “Behold, I have dreamed another dream; and behold, the sun, the moon, and eleven stars were bowing down to me.” 10 But when he told it to his father and to his brothers, his father rebuked him, and said to him, “What is this dream that you have dreamed? Shall I and your mother and your brothers indeed come to bow ourselves to the ground before you?” 11 And his brothers were jealous of him, but his father kept the saying in mind.

    So Joseph has a dream about his family, the content of the dream is not the topic of what I am connecting though. 
    18 Now the birth of Jesus Christ took place in this way. When his mother Mary had been betrothed to Joseph, before they came together she was found to be with child of the Holy Spirit; 19 and her husband Joseph, being a just man and unwilling to put her to shame, resolved to send her away quietly. 20 But as he considered this, behold, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream, saying, “Joseph, son of David, do not fear to take Mary your wife, for that which is conceived in her is of the Holy Spirit; 21 she will bear a son, and you shall call his name Jesus, for he will save his people from their sins.” 22 All this took place to fulfil what the Lord had spoken by the prophet: 23 “Behold, a virgin shall conceive and bear a son, and his name shall be called Emmanuel” (which means, God with us). 24 When Joseph woke from sleep, he did as the angel of the Lord commanded him; he took his wife, 25 but knew her not until she had borne a son; and he called his name Jesus.

    We see Saint Joseph here has a dream regarding his family. We also notice that he is called a "just man" which can be interpreted as righteous. Many Jewish scholars and Rabbis have all agreed that Joseph Bar-Jacob; Bar-Isaac, was a righteous man. 
    28 and Israel said, “It is enough; Joseph my son is still alive; I will go and see him before I die.”

    We see that it is because of Joseph being in Egypt and having such authority and being in the position he is in, that his entire family comes to Egypt. 
    13 Now when they had departed, behold, an angel of the Lord appeared to Joseph in a dream and said, “Rise, take the child and his mother, and flee to Egypt, and remain there till I tell you; for Herod is about to search for the child, to destroy him.” 14 And he rose and took the child and his mother by night, and departed to Egypt, 15 and remained there until the death of Herod. This was to fulfil what the Lord had spoken by the prophet, “Out of Egypt have I called my son.”

    Now in the New Testament we see that Joseph takes his family down to Egypt.
    15 Then the king of Egypt said to the Hebrew midwives, one of whom was named Shiphrah and the other Puah, 16 “When you serve as midwife to the Hebrew women, and see them upon the birthstool, if it is a son, you shall kill him; but if it is a daughter, she shall live.” 17 But the midwives feared God, and did not do as the king of Egypt commanded them, but let the male children live. 18 So the king of Egypt called the midwives, and said to them, “Why have you done this, and let the male children live?” 19 The midwives said to Pharaoh, “Because the Hebrew women are not like the Egyptian women; for they are vigorous and are delivered before the midwife comes to them.” 20 So God dealt well with the midwives; and the people multiplied and grew very strong. 21 And because the midwives feared God he gave them families. 22 Then Pharaoh commanded all his people, “Every son that is born to the Hebrews you shall cast into the Nile, but you shall let every daughter live.”

    Here we see at the end of Exodus 1, the King of Egypt, the Pharaoh commands that all the Hebrew male infants to be killed. This was an attempt to stop the leader of the first Exodus of God's people, Moses from being born. Now let's see what the New Testament has.
    3 Now when they had departed, behold, an angel of the Lord appeared to Joseph in a dream and said, “Rise, take the child and his mother, and flee to Egypt, and remain there till I tell you; for Herod is about to search for the child, to destroy him.” 14 And he rose and took the child and his mother by night, and departed to Egypt, 15 and remained there until the death of Herod. This was to fulfil what the Lord had spoken by the prophet, “Out of Egypt have I called my son.” 16 Then Herod, when he saw that he had been tricked by the wise men, was in a furious rage, and he sent and killed all the male children in Bethlehem and in all that region who were two years old or under, according to the time which he had ascertained from the wise men.

    Now in the New Testament we see the leader of God's Second Exodus, Jesus was under threat by the King of Israel who wanted to kill all the male infants. 
    21 Then Moses stretched out his hand over the sea; and the Lord drove the sea back by a strong east wind all night, and made the sea dry land, and the waters were divided. 22 And the people of Israel went into the midst of the sea on dry ground, the waters being a wall to them on their right hand and on their left.

    The Israelites along with Moses cross through the waters of the sea.
    13 Then Jesus came from Galilee to the Jordan to John, to be baptized by him. 14 John would have prevented him, saying, “I need to be baptized by you, and do you come to me?” 15 But Jesus answered him, “Let it be so now; for thus it is fitting for us to fulfil all righteousness.” Then he consented.

    Jesus crosses into the water to be baptized.
     9 When I went up the mountain to receive the tables of stone, the tables of the covenant which the Lord made with you, I remained on the mountain forty days and forty nights; I neither ate bread nor drank water.

    Moses here reflects back when just after the Exodus and crossing the waters and He went up on Mount Sinai where he stayed for 40 days and was fasting and mind you the Israelites were in the wilderness of Sinai at this time. 
    Then Jesus was led up by the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted by the devil. 2 And he fasted forty days and forty nights, and afterward he was hungry. 

    Jesus after crossing through the waters of Saint John's baptism, He goes into the wilderness and fasts for 40 days. 
    When the people saw that Moses delayed to come down from the mountain, the people gathered themselves together to Aaron, and said to him, “Up, make us gods, who shall go before us; as for this Moses, the man who brought us up out of the land of Egypt, we do not know what has become of him.” 2 And Aaron said to them, “Take off the rings of gold which are in the ears of your wives, your sons, and your daughters, and bring them to me.” 3 So all the people took off the rings of gold which were in their ears, and brought them to Aaron. 4 And he received the gold at their hand, and fashioned it with a graving tool, and made a molten calf; and they said, “These are your gods, O Israel, who brought you up out of the land of Egypt!” 5 When Aaron saw this, he built an altar before it; and Aaron made proclamation and said, “Tomorrow shall be a feast to the Lord.” 6 And they rose up early on the morrow, and offered burnt offerings and brought peace offerings; and the people sat down to eat and drink, and rose up to play.

    While Moses is up fasting and staying up on the Mountain, the Israelites are tempted and fall away from God and worship a false god. 
    3 And the tempter came and said to him, “If you are the Son of God, command these stones to become loaves of bread.” 4 But he answered, “It is written, ‘Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God.’” 5 Then the devil took him to the holy city, and set him on the pinnacle of the temple, 6 and said to him, “If you are the Son of God, throw yourself down; for it is written, ‘He will give his angels charge of you,’ and ‘On their hands they will bear you up, lest you strike your foot against a stone.’” 7 Jesus said to him, “Again it is written, ‘You shall not tempt the Lord your God.’” 8 Again, the devil took him to a very high mountain, and showed him all the kingdoms of the world and the glory of them; 9 and he said to him, “All these I will give you, if you will fall down and worship me.” 10 Then Jesus said to him, “Begone, Satan! for it is written, ‘You shall worship the Lord your God and him only shall you serve.’” 11 Then the devil left him, and behold, angels came and ministered to him.

    Now we see while Jesus is fasting for 40 days, Satan attempts to tempt Christ but He responds to each of Satan's attempts by quoting from Deuteronomy 6-8. 

  • Then next notice in Exodus 20-31 we see Moses has gone up the Mountain to receive the Laws of God. [Exodus: 20; 21; 22; 23; 24; 25; 26; 27; 28; 29; 30; 31]
  • Then in Matthew 5-7, Jesus goes up a mountain to give the Sermon on the Mount where He revises and adds to the Laws. [Matthew: 5; 6; 7]

  • Exodus 34:29-34 Part I
    29 When Moses came down from Mount Sinai, with the two tables of the testimony in his hand as he came down from the mountain, Moses did not know that the skin of his face shone because he had been talking with God. 30 And when Aaron and all the people of Israel saw Moses, behold, the skin of his face shone, and they were afraid to come near him. 31 But Moses called to them; and Aaron and all the leaders of the congregation returned to him, and Moses talked with them. 32 And afterward all the people of Israel came near, and he gave them in commandment all that the Lord had spoken with him in Mount Sinai. 33 And when Moses had finished speaking with them, he put a veil on his face; 34 but whenever Moses went in before the Lord to speak with him, he took the veil off, until he came out; and when he came out, and told the people of Israel what he was commanded, 35 the people of Israel saw the face of Moses, that the skin of Moses’ face shone; and Moses would put the veil upon his face again, until he went in to speak with him.

    This time we see Moses going up the Mountain and comes back down and his face and skin is shinning because he was in the presence of God. 
    And after six days Jesus took with him Peter and James and John his brother, and led them up a high mountain apart. 2 And he was transfigured before them, and his face shone like the sun, and his garments became white as light. 3 And behold, there appeared to them Moses and Elijah, talking with him. 4 And Peter said to Jesus, “Lord, it is well that we are here; if you wish, I will make three booths here, one for you and one for Moses and one for Elijah.” 5 He was still speaking, when lo, a bright cloud overshadowed them, and a voice from the cloud said, “This is my beloved Son with whom I am well pleased; listen to him.” 6 When the disciples heard this, they fell on their faces, and were filled with awe. 7 But Jesus came and touched them, saying, “Rise, and have no fear.” 8 And when they lifted up their eyes, they saw no one but Jesus only.

    In Matthew 17 here we see Jesus goes up a Mountain once again and this time He is transfigured and His face begins to shine with His Glory and the apostles witness it and one of the two figures who appear next to Jesus speaking with Him is MOSES. 
    These next two points are not one that need specific passages quoted. 
  • Moses in the Old Testament as the leader of the Exodus is leading the 12 tribes of Israel and leads them to the land of Israel. 
  • Jesus being the true Leader of the final Exodus leads 12 Disciples and will lead all people to the Eternal land of Israel which is called Heaven. 
    5 And the people spoke against God and against Moses, “Why have you brought us up out of Egypt to die in the wilderness? For there is no food and no water, and we loathe this worthless food.” 6 Then the Lord sent fiery serpents among the people, and they bit the people, so that many people of Israel died. 7 And the people came to Moses, and said, “We have sinned, for we have spoken against the Lord and against you; pray to the Lord, that he take away the serpents from us.” So Moses prayed for the people. 8 And the Lord said to Moses, “Make a fiery serpent, and set it on a pole; and every one who is bitten, when he sees it, shall live.” 9 So Moses made a bronze serpent, and set it on a pole; and if a serpent bit any man, he would look at the bronze serpent and live.

    The Israelites commit blasphemy here by cursing God, and they also curse God's prophet. They call God in basic terms a liar and a murderer, which we know are the attributes of the Devil. So the irony is that God requires through His prophet to raise a bronze snake on a pole and look to this bronze snakes to be saved. Meaning that God alone can save them, and they called God in basic terms the Devil so now they must look at a symbol of a snake, remember the Devil first appeared as a snake. 
    24 But when the Pharisees heard it they said, “It is only by Beelzebul, the prince of demons, that this man casts out demons.”
    32 As they were marching out, they came upon a man of Cyrene, Simon by name; this man they compelled to carry his cross. 

    Then within the New Testament Christ who is God, and also a prophet is cursed and blasphemed against by the Pharisees saying that He is possessed by Satan. Then later on we see Christ is raised up on a cross and everyone must look to Him even those who cursed Him, to be saved. 
    Then came David to Nob to Ahimelech the priest; and Ahimelech came to meet David trembling, and said to him, “Why are you alone, and no one with you?” 2 And David said to Ahimelech the priest, “The king has charged me with a matter, and said to me, ‘Let no one know anything of the matter about which I send you, and with which I have charged you.’ I have made an appointment with the young men for such and such a place. 3 Now then, what have you at hand? Give me five loaves of bread, or whatever is here.” 4 And the priest answered David, “I have no common bread at hand, but there is holy bread; if only the young men have kept themselves from women.” 5 And David answered the priest, “Of a truth women have been kept from us as always when I go on an expedition; the vessels of the young men are holy, even when it is a common journey; how much more today will their vessels be holy?” 6 So the priest gave him the holy bread; for there was no bread there but the bread of the Presence, which is removed from before the Lord, to be replaced by hot bread on the day it is taken away.

    David comes to the priest of God, Ahimelech and asks him for the Bread of the Presence which sits in the Holy of Holies in the Temple. David and his men are allowed to eat the bread based on the fact they were clean in the same way that the priests were required to be clean. Only the Priests were supposed to eat the Bread of the Presence. And Remember that Jesus Christ is called the Son of David.
    At that time Jesus went through the grainfields on the sabbath; his disciples were hungry, and they began to pluck ears of grain and to eat. 2 But when the Pharisees saw it, they said to him, “Look, your disciples are doing what is not lawful to do on the sabbath.” 3 He said to them, “Have you not read what David did, when he was hungry, and those who were with him: 4 how he entered the house of God and ate the bread of the Presence, which it was not lawful for him to eat nor for those who were with him, but only for the priests? 5 Or have you not read in the law how on the sabbath the priests in the temple profane the sabbath, and are guiltless? 6 I tell you, something greater than the temple is here. 7 And if you had known what this means, ‘I desire mercy, and not sacrifice,’ you would not have condemned the guiltless. 8 For the Son of man is lord of the sabbath.”

    Jesus here defends His disciples for picking grain on the sabbath and eating it. The Pharisees condemned them, but Jesus reminds the of David getting the Bread of Presence for his men to eat. Jesus also is making the connection that He is the Son of David who is called Lord, and He, Jesus, is Lord of the Sabbath. 
    Now the serpent was more subtle than any other wild creature that the Lord God had made. He said to the woman, “Did God say, ‘You shall not eat of any tree of the garden’?” 2 And the woman said to the serpent, “We may eat of the fruit of the trees of the garden; 3 but God said, ‘You shall not eat of the fruit of the tree which is in the midst of the garden, neither shall you touch it, lest you die.’” 4 But the serpent said to the woman, “You will not die. 5 For God knows that when you eat of it your eyes will be opened, and you will be like God, knowing good and evil.” 6 So when the woman saw that the tree was good for food, and that it was a delight to the eyes, and that the tree was to be desired to make one wise, she took of its fruit and ate; and she also gave some to her husband, and he ate. 7 Then the eyes of both were opened, and they knew that they were naked; and they sewed fig leaves together and made themselves aprons. 8 And they heard the sound of the Lord God walking in the garden in the cool of the day, and the man and his wife hid themselves from the presence of the Lord God among the trees of the garden. 9 But the Lord God called to the man, and said to him, “Where are you?” 10 And he said, “I heard the sound of thee in the garden, and I was afraid, because I was naked; and I hid myself.” 11 He said, “Who told you that you were naked? Have you eaten of the tree of which I commanded you not to eat?” 12 The man said, “The woman whom thou gavest to be with me, she gave me fruit of the tree, and I ate.” 13 Then the Lord God said to the woman, “What is this that you have done?” The woman said, “The serpent beguiled me, and I ate.” 14 The Lord God said to the serpent, “Because you have done this, cursed are you above all cattle, and above all wild animals; upon your belly you shall go, and dust you shall eat all the days of your life. 15 I will put enmity between you and the woman, and between your seed and her seed; he shall bruise your head, and you shall bruise his heel.” 16 To the woman he said, “I will greatly multiply your pain in childbearing; in pain you shall bring forth children, yet your desire shall be for your husband, and he shall rule over you.”

    We see the Fall into Sin Narrative Eve is referred to as Woman. And when the Lord God speaks to the serpent, he refers to Woman and how her offspring will crush the head of Satan. 
    On the third day there was a marriage at Cana in Galilee, and the mother of Jesus was there; 2 Jesus also was invited to the marriage, with his disciples. 3 When the wine failed, the mother of Jesus said to him, “They have no wine.” 4 And Jesus said to her, “O woman, what have you to do with me? My hour has not yet come.” 5 His mother said to the servants, “Do whatever he tells you.” 6 Now six stone jars were standing there, for the Jewish rites of purification, each holding twenty or thirty gallons. 7 Jesus said to them, “Fill the jars with water.” And they filled them up to the brim. 8 He said to them, “Now draw some out, and take it to the steward of the feast.” So they took it. 9 When the steward of the feast tasted the water now become wine, and did not know where it came from (though the servants who had drawn the water knew), the steward of the feast called the bridegroom 10 and said to him, “Every man serves the good wine first; and when men have drunk freely, then the poor wine; but you have kept the good wine until now.” 11 This, the first of his signs, Jesus did at Cana in Galilee, and manifested his glory; and his disciples believed in him.

    Now we know that the Offspring to crush the head of the serpent is Jesus Christ. Now look, we see that Mary asks Jesus to do something to fix the problem of the wine that ran out. I, being raised Lutheran was taught that event had no significance at all and Jesus was actually angry at His mother and was rebuking her. I now know that lie is not true obviously. See Jesus is the Offspring that will crush the head of the serpent, so He calls His mother, "WOMAN." He is signaling to us that this is the Woman of Genesis 3:15. So now let's look at a third passage. 
    12 And a great portent appeared in heaven, a woman clothed with the sun, with the moon under her feet, and on her head a crown of twelve stars; 2 she was with child and she cried out in her pangs of birth, in anguish for delivery. 3 And another portent appeared in heaven; behold, a great red dragon, with seven heads and ten horns, and seven diadems upon his heads. 4 His tail swept down a third of the stars of heaven, and cast them to the earth. And the dragon stood before the woman who was about to bear a child, that he might devour her child when she brought it forth; 5 she brought forth a male child, one who is to rule all the nations with a rod of iron, but her child was caught up to God and to his throne, 6 and the woman fled into the wilderness, where she has a place prepared by God, in which to be nourished for one thousand two hundred and sixty days.

    I have gone over this passage to show to you how Mary, is the Queen of Heaven in this Article. I did not however show this connection. Mary is referred to as "WOMAN" by Christ in John to show us that she is the Woman of Genesis 3:15. Then we see that in Heaven a WOMAN is clothed with the sun and the moon is under her feet and she has a crown of twelve stars and she was with child and this Child was one to rule all nations. This Child is Christ Jesus, and this woman is Mary the Mother of God, the Queen of Heaven. We know it is Mary because she gave birth to Jesus Christ and because this mother of the Child which is Christ, is called WOMAN. 
    48 When the Philistine arose and came and drew near to meet David, David ran quickly toward the battle line to meet the Philistine. 49 And David put his hand in his bag and took out a stone, and slung it, and struck the Philistine on his forehead; the stone sank into his forehead, and he fell on his face to the ground. 50 So David prevailed over the Philistine with a sling and with a stone, and struck the Philistine, and killed him; there was no sword in the hand of David. 51 Then David ran and stood over the Philistine, and took his sword and drew it out of its sheath, and killed him, and cut off his head with it. When the Philistines saw that their champion was dead, they fled. 52 And the men of Israel and Judah rose with a shout and pursued the Philistines as far as Gath and the gates of Ekron, so that the wounded Philistines fell on the way from Shaaraim as far as Gath and Ekron. 53 And the Israelites came back from chasing the Philistines, and they plundered their camp. 54 And David took the head of the Philistine and brought it to Jerusalem; but he put his armor in his tent.

    Here we see the classic narrative of David and Goliath. It is real event, and notice. David is a symbol of Good, Righteousness in this Narrative. Goliath is a symbol of Evil. Then David cut the head off of Goliath, who was a giant and brought it to Jerusalem. It is common tradition that the head of Goliath was left on a HILL OUTSIDE JERUSALEM. 
    17 So they took Jesus, and he went out, bearing his own cross, to the place called the place of a skull, which is called in Hebrew Golgotha.

    We know that Jesus, being God was sent to crush the head of Satan. Jesus is killed on the hill known as Golgotha which is known as the PLACE OF THE SKULL. Now tell me, what is a hill? Massive. And this hill is massive and looks like a skull. Christ is crucified on this hill and this hill, Golgotha is outside where? JERUSALEM. Jesus is crucified on the place of the skull of Satan because His death was the crushing of the SKULL of Satan. 

Section 2. My Final Thoughts
    I have greatly enjoyed writing this Article because even I could not help having my mind blown even thought I had recently learned all these things. I can read them over and over and still just be filled with awe and amazement at how Spiritual our Bible is and true and miraculous our God and His Word is. 

"The LORD bless you
and keep you;
the LORD make His face shine upon you
and be gracious to you;
the LORD turn His face toward you 
and give you peace." ☦
