Am I obsessed with this? Or is it just so fun and exciting I can't stop? Is there a difference?
When Jesus turned the water into wine, there was so much going on between Himself and His mother, Mary, that most people totally miss it. It never occurred to me that they were having their own conversation. The disciples didn't know what they were talking about. Mary and Jesus had had countless conversations at the fire side, no doubt, and Mary was a spiritual GIANT. They have no wine. Hah! Truly. Do what He tells you, she says...
6 water pots - earthen. Can you get any closer to symbols of man? They were not filled (this is typical, most people aren't filled...). Jesus told the servants to fill them. Then, the water was drawn out (harpazo), at that point, the water becomes wine. The wine is presented to the 'master'. The Master does not know where the wine came from! Interesting, but he picture is awesome. When we are presented before God, He will not 'care' where we came from. That is something WE will know, but HE will not. God will see us as blameless, sinless children. We, however, will remember where we've been and realize the grace and mercy that brought us to that point.
Adam's Rib
Adam is put to sleep and a rib is taken from him. The rib does not become the bride until it is 'taken from the other ribs'. Just as Christ's rib was crushed in on the cross to birth His bride (blood and water gushes out - birth fluids). This goes so much deeper, but I don't know all the cool aspects yet.
Can anyone get the story out of the book of Esther? It's all there.
