Luke 19:29-44: Lamb of God takes prophetically foreboding donkey ride into Yerushalayim for Passover

Jeff

Two key themes in this passage are the arrival of Yeshua into Yerushalayim on a donkey and the responsive public cry, “Blessed is He who comes in the name of the Lord.” That blessed One came as the Lamb of God, yet Israel’s “shepherds” ignored Him, searching for the prophesied Lion of Yehudah. When the Lamb of God returns as the Lion of Yehudah, no one will be able to ignore Him.

Genesis 10:1-5: Prophetic significance of the descendants of Noach’s son Yafet

This graphic illustrates the theme of Genesis 10:1-5, focusing on the "Prophetic significance of the descendants of Noah's son Japheth." The background features a colorful, abstract map-like design with an emphasis on rust tones and teal blues symbolizing regions and nations, representing the spread of Japheth's descendants. The bold, central text highlights the topic with a modern, impactful design.

The descendants of Noach’s son Yafet (Japheth) show up prominently in Israel’s history, particularly regarding the period leading up to the Day of the LORD.

Genesis 9: God blesses Noach and his sons; Noach curses Canaan

This graphic depicts a visual representation of Genesis 9 from the Bible. It features a figure, likely Noah, in the center with three figures, possibly his sons (Shem, Ham, and Japheth), around him. The text on the right reads: **"Genesis 9: God blesses Noah and his sons; Noah curses Canaan."** The imagery includes a bright sunlit background with flowing clouds, symbolizing divine blessing and covenant. Let me know if you'd like further details or an analysis of Genesis 9.

At first, it’s puzzling why Noach cursed Cana’an for something his father, Ham, did. Is this a generational curse, with the sins of the father being meted out to future generations? Is something else going on here? The answer seems to be in the meaning of the Hebrew words for curse and Cana’an.
