Double Portion Inheritance: Melchizedek & the Law of the Kinsman Redeemer Part 5 (02/12/2016)

In this episode, Maria first shares a brief history lesson on the pagan origins of Valentine’s Day. To read that blog, see the link below: Valentine’s Day & Nimrod: The Original Cupid http://doubleportioninheritance.blogspot.com/2012/01/valentines-day-nimrod-original-cupid.html However, she quickly gets back on track with the study that she has been sharing for the past few weeks on the story of Judah & Tamar in Genesis 38. From this account, we can see a prophetic picture of the Heavenly Father (typified in Judah) who promised to send his son Shelah (typified in Messiah). Tamar is a picture of the “Ten Northern Tribes of the House of Ephrayim” who were divorced and widowed. In order for Tamar to be restored (like the lost sheep of Yisra’el), she must give birth to a male heir, a son of promise. Tamar’s kinsman redeemer was promised to her by an oath given by her father-in-law, Judah. But Judah himself fulfilled the oath when he himself became her kinsman redeemer, and the father of her twins. Tamar’s twins are a symbol of the “one new man” (Ephesians 2:15) or the “man-child” (Revelation 12:5). In other words, “both houses of Yisra’el” (Isaiah 8:14) will be “born-again” of the “seed of the woman” (Genesis 3:15) by the kinsman redeemer who is the “Lion of the Tribe of Judah!” (Revelation 5:5).
