generous giving of +ods %eo%le. @ou will notice that we do not

The Divine Tapestry
PART 128

The Final Chapter



2 Chronicles 36:14-23



Presented by
Pastor Justin Greene
September 28, 2014


We began this series with a picture that illustrated three
things...
















2
These small pictures were placed together with a
purpose that you might see the big picture. (If you
only focused on the small picture you would miss the
point.)




These small pictures were chosen to give
perspective.

They tell us why the big picture matters. (If you didnt
see the small pictures you would miss the point.)




These pictures reveal a person. (If you didnt see the
big picture you would miss the point.)



Proper perspective is important ... Gods perspective is
paramount!








3
THE FINAL CHAPTER

Three Assumptions

The Old Testament progressively reveals truth from
and about God, including pictures and promises of a
coming Messiah.





There was a Messianic anticipation at the time of the
birth of Jesus.





Jesus used an arrangement of the Scriptures called the
Tanakh to defend and highlight His fulfillment of the
Messianic Hope (Luke 24). This arrangement ends
with 2 Chronicles.







4
LET HIM GO UP...

2 Chronicles 36 ends with three conclusions: (tied to Leviticus 26
and Deuteronomy 30)


1. Gods Servants were Abused.



God sent His servants to remind the people of
His covenant and commands.




To attack them was to reject the Word.




2. The Sabbath was not Appreciated.



The Sabbath was a time set aside to rest in, and
reflect on, the protection and provision of the
Lord.




5
3. The Savior was Anticipated.


2 Chronicles 26:23 is more than a partial quote
from Ezra...


It would cause them to look backward
(Leviticus 26).





It would cause them to look forward (Matthew 1).





It would cause them to look upward (2 Samuel 7).











6
NEW TESTAMENT REFLECTIONS

What did Jesus say the Father would do after His
servants were beaten and rejected? He would send
the Son (Matthew 21:37-39).




How many times should we forgive?


70 x 7 (490 the number of years of rejection)




Maximum forgiveness to those who continually
reject!



Christ seems to use this passage as a Messianic outline
(Matthew 23:37-39)?
