Symbolism and metaphor abounds in Isaiah 61. What then is the spiritual meaning of the "oil of joy" reference in verse 3, and why that metaphor?

God has given us commandment in his word on how to govern ourselves accordingly and " HE WILL " until the day he return, fullfil it. In this 1st chapter of Joshua he give some instructions to follow and assure us of his promise to reward us according to our actions to perform in obedience.

We should always to fulfill our vows to God as Hannah gave Samuel to God. When you do so, God gives you more, Hannah gave away Samuel and in turn God gave her 3 more sons and 2 daughters. We should always thank, praise and worship God for everything. If the ministers of God deviate from the truth, God will always raise another generation to serve Him (GOD). Once you're faithful God will raise up

John 3:16 For God so loved the world,that WHOSOEVER believes should not PERISH but has everlasting LIFE! There is indeed an ACT of RECEIVING, BELIEVING, TRUSTING, his word. In the beginning was the WORD. GOD created LIFE with HIS WORD.

End of day 25 of Bible in a Year Reading. God wants His people to understand the meaning behind "religious acts". We learn by "doing". There is a thinking process that is involved in each step that brings us closer to the heart of God.

There will always be tensions and quarrels in a polygamous families, therefore polygamy is not Godly. According to Prov 30:16 A barren woman will never be satisfied, although Elkanah tried to give Hannah more than he gave other family members, she wasn't satisfied. Prayers, faith in God, fulfilling one's obligation to God and persistence make one to achieve his/her dream.

Historically birthstones are said to be tied to the precious stones that are mentioned here. There are 12 stones and 12 months. Many of those that where there "birthstone" may not realize this. It is a point of interest that the world often has no idea of the biblical influences that are woven into lives.

These chapters are so helpful in understanding the details that God showed His people concerning what is acceptable and pleasing with our Holy God. I like to listen to the audio of this and other chapters as I look at images on the internet of the tabernacle, altar etc... it helps to solidify the information. I can almost imagine them creating these structures and instruments.

We are saved by trusting in Him, our blessed Saviour Jesus Christ according to the scriptures.
Romans 3:24 Being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus. Cannot get no clearer then this. I love my LORD Jesus Christ. Amen and Amen

And again i say.....read proverbs. I think if all read and followed that book, the rrst of it would come easy if you live by the rulls.

Verse 12 to end of Chapter is an indictment from God to/against the Evil Priest, Melchiresha, and all those involved in the Priests' efforts to overthrow God's kingdom. The ultimate penalty is he shall be put to death as a man.

AMEN!

K. Patrick Gibson, you are correct. Those were mighty angels that mated with the women. This was the beginning of giants in the land.

Thank you Christ for your love in me threw meekness is salvation. Thank you Most High Amen.

Life is a struggle for me everyday living around a cigarette smoker and a pot smoker has its ups and downs but threw Christ I pray every day that he shows me how to seek him when evil comes my way amen.

Thanks be to the most High even though life throws you challenges we can always look to Christ our savior for a path to righteousness and love for a better future and a new life. Hallelujah Amen

Bill, to answer your question. Who is the angel of Jesus Christ? In Revelation 1:1, the angel of the church speaks of the Pastor.

The whole chapter blessed me in a time where I'm just wondering why am I still going through the same thing. But, God who spoke allowing me to see and know I suffer for you.I ask the father to let this cup pass from me but I said (Nevertheless)not my will but let YOUR WILL be done. So the word that stands out to me is we must have a NEVERTHELESS in our spirit.

Keep the faith..

Very good comments

Perhaps Christ is simply referencing sin and hypocrisy in all of us. The 12 apostles see and hate the sin in all of us, including themselves and they know Christ is the TRUTH, LIGHT and LIFE and are willing to follow him even if it means persecution. They are sick and tired of sin even in family. The regular crowd following Christ perhaps doesn’t understand all that; so he’s blunt to them

9-19 'the great city' or 'babylon the great' received her plagues that day, and the moring after there is death, and mourning, and famine as she she is be utterly burned with fire: for strong is the Lord God who judgeth her. All Kings of the earth, merchants, captians of ships, cry, cry, cry, over her/ their partner in sin/ crime because their relationship is forever-over /finished with her. WOW!

"For as in the days that were before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark, and knew not until the flood came, and took them all away; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be." While the narrative in Gen.6 describes how God saw the world full of apostasy corruption and violence; the people couldn't care less!

The Lord s my keeper..a thousand shall fall at the side..no harm cometh against.me..all evil as to go..delivered.from wicked..The Lord s my prptecror..amen

"And Esau said, Behold, I am at the point to die: and what profit shall this birthright do to me?..and he sold his birthright unto Jacob..thus Esau despised his birthright." The Scriptures declare clearly what kind of man Esau was; yet most find fault with Jacob for his scheming, but hardly say a peep about Esau the heathen hater of the LORD. God knew what kind both men were, and chose Jacob.

i give this five stars

I read psalm 91 Every morning
I’m depending on God’s protection
By day and night .Amen

So powerful

Steve: have you not heard of tormented Spirits/men??? why do you call a man "wicked" as though he is "wicked intentionally"???? or did I misunderstand your comment?? kenny james

Thank you Tim for your nice reply. I enjoy it very much to spend this time searching and discussing THE MOST IMPORTANT AND PROFITABLE things of the Lord. I come here in the morning after my Bible reading, and when I relax in the evening after work. I look forward to talking again soon.
