He has helped his servant Israel, in remembrance of his mercy.
Through Moses God instituted that His people should remember the Passover, the great Exodus from Egypt to the Promised Land. In those days the Creator of the universe revealed Himself to His people in the form of a burning but non-consuming bush to show them His great love, care and power to redeem them from their Egyptian oppressor. At that time God wrought great miracles, miracles we still talk about today and are even documented with evidence from land and sea. One of those great miracles was that as God redeemed His people, a great multitude of Gentile eventually followed them and found refuge from tyrannical doomed and destroyed Egypt in the God of Israel.
During His last Seder, the Master enjoined His disciples to also remember Him at the time of the Passover. For in those His days the Creator of the universe revealed Himself to His people to show them His great love, care and power to redeem them not only from Rome, but from the ‘world’, from the ungodliness that is in them since the Fall.. At that time God wrought great miracles, miracles we still talk about today and are even documented with evidence from land and sea. One of those great miracles was that as God redeemed His people, a great multitude of Gentile eventually followed them and found refuge from tyrannical doomed and eventually destroyed Rome in the God of Israel.
Since the time when Rome expulsed Israel from the country God had given them, Israel sought refuge in those nations that came to the Messiah of Israel. These nations for the most important part oppressed them. But even before the days of the Master the prophet Jeremiah uttered the following words, "Therefore, behold, the days are coming, declares the LORD, when it shall no longer be said, 'As the LORD lives who brought up the people of Israel out of the land of Egypt,' but 'As the LORD lives who brought up the people of Israel out of the north country and out of all the countries where he had driven them.' For I will bring them back to their own land that I gave to their fathers (Jeremiah 16:14-15). This will be the third Passover.
In those days the Creator of the universe will reveal Himself to His people in the form of to show them His great love, care and power to redeem them from the nations that will surround them in an attempt to annihilate them. In those days, God will perform again great miracles, miracles that will be documented and spoken about forever and ever over land and sea. One of those great miracles will be that as God redeems His people, a great multitude of Gentile will also be redeemed joining Israel in finding refuge n the great Kingdom of God to come.
May it be soon Abba, even in our days!
