So in order, what church age would Thyatira be? Have you figured it out? And how does Jezebel fit into that church age?
Not sure what you mean by "church age".
There were different
age events all thru the OT[Hebrews 9:26] that are depicted in the Covenantle Book of Revelation concerning the
NC of Life vs the
OC of Death.
Heb 9:26
He then would have had to suffer often since the foundation of the world;
but now,
once at the end of the ages, He has appeared to put away sin by
the sacrifice/slaughter of Himself.
========================================
Note the Tree of Life in the 1st church which goes back to Genesis.........It symbolizes the Cross/Wood/Stake...........
It goes back to when Abraham was going to sacrifice Isaac on the Wood and from whom the Promise was to come thru......later the tribe of Judah thru Jacob.......
Gen 2:9
And out of the ground the LORD God made every tree grow that is pleasant to the sight and good for food.
The tree of life was also in the midst of the garden, and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. [Revelation 22:2-14]
6086 `ets ates from
6095; a tree (from its firmness); hence, wood (plural sticks):--+ carpenter, gallows, helve, + pine, plank, staff, stalk, stick, stock, timber, tree, wood.
Genesis 22:
9 And they come in unto the place of which 'Elohim hath spoken to him, and there Abraham buildeth the altar, and arrangeth
the wood/06086 `ets, and bindeth Yitschaq his son, and placeth him upon the altar above the wood/06086 `ets; 10 and Abraham putteth forth his hand, and taketh the knife--
to slaughter his son.
13 And Abraham is lifting his eyes and behold a ram behind being held in thicket, in horns of him and Abraham is going and and he is taking
the ram and he is offering up him as ascent offering
instead of his son.
============================
3586. xulon xoo'-lon from another form of the base of 3582;
timber (as fuel or material); by implication, a stick, club or tree or other wooden article or substance:--staff, stocks, tree, wood.
Acts 13:29 and when they did finish all the things written about Him, having taken down from the wood/xulou<3586>, they laid Him in a tomb;
Rev 2:7
“He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches. To him who overcomes I will give to eat from the tree/wood of life, which is in the midst of the Paradise of God.” '
Rev 22:2
In the middle of its street, and on either side of the river,
was the tree/wood of life, which bore twelve fruits, each
tree yielding its fruit every month. The leaves of the tree
were for the healing of the nations.
Rev 22:14
Blessed
are those who do His commandments,[fn] that they may have the right to
the tree of life, and may enter through the gates into the city.
==================
The manna during the Exodus of the Hebrews Israelites from Egypt
Exo 16:35
And the children of Israel
ate manna forty years, until they came to an inhabited land; they ate manna until they came to the border of the land of Canaan.
================
Jhn 6:58
“This is the bread which came down from heaven—not as
your fathers ate the manna, and are dead. He who eats this bread will live forever.”
Heb 9:4
which had the golden censer and the ark of the covenant overlaid on all sides with gold, in which
were the golden pot that had
the manna, Aaron's rod that budded, and the tablets of the covenant;
Rev 2:17
“He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches. To him who overcomes I will give some of
the hidden manna to eat. And I will give him a white stone, and on the stone a new name written which no one knows except him who receives
it.” '
