Incarnation in the Old Testament | Ezekiel 34:23-24 | N.T. Wright Online
Ezekial 34 wrestles with the question of God’s return to his people-not only whether it will happen but also what it will look like. In answer, God declares that he will share the shepherding vocation with the Davidic king. Beyond simply answering the logistical question of how God might return to the people of Israel, this idea sets us up to better understand later conceptions of Jesus’s incarnation and vocation as the good shepherd.

Ephesians is an "In Him" Letter

    Wonderful connection! Isn't this one-on-one shepherding what Paul called "the faith of Abraham?" Didn't we also see this echoed with Moses and the prophets? But the people-at-large resisted, the Bible says. “Speak to us yourself and we will listen. But do not have God speak to us or we will die," they told Moses (Ex. 20:19). I would make clear that this personal connection with "the Shepherd" isn't a new thing that came with the Gospel. But Jesus DID make it plain-and now to a wider audience (the whole world). Makes me question why the church encourages people to keep relying on pastors, priests-even departed saints-to do what the one true God always intended for himself (John 17:3).

The Jesus people of today are greedy beasts, not needy sheep. Therefore, dear sister and friend, pray for Jesus to change their hearts so that they may see what they ought to see. I live in a poorer country. Otherwise, I would have certainly helped you in your time of need. My prayers for you and your children.

    NT Wright didnt fully say where he believes Jesus now is. He suggested he is indeed in heaven and has control over this material world. But where did he go if not to heaven? You know heaven is a place just like this earth is a place. But the world is temporary, because you must die. Whereas heaven is eternal.

    • @NTWrightOnline
      @NTWrightOnline 5 дней назад

      N.T. Wright shows that heaven is God's space, from which God reigns. Jesus is in heaven, but heaven doesn't have a specific geospatial location or coordinates that can be mapped or measured within the physical dimensions of earth or space. Right now Jesus is in God's space (heaven), reigning and interacting with our world, awaiting the time when heaven and earth are renewed and united in New Creation. However, if heaven is a location that Jesus went geospatially "up" to from the Mount of Olives, how does heaven relate to people on the opposite side of the globe, where "up" would be "down"? How does this perspective change our understanding of Jesus's current presence and reign? --NTW Online Team

    • @naomiw357
      @naomiw357 4 дня назад

      I see, that actually clarifies a few things. Thank you. I agree that heaven is a spiritual place and not a physical place, in the physical geospatial realm. What comes to mind is the Jewish perspective that God created the Universe, and the universe encompasses both physical and material worlds of which there are 4. Atzilut- the world of Emination, eternal and unchanging, then the world of Beriah, world of creation and location of the throne of God and angels.Then Yetzirach the world of formation where Ezekiels prophecy was experienced when he entered to this world. And lastly Asiyyah- the world of action, our physical world. In judaism it is said that “ one should every day recall the Future World” , but the Future World is both the eternal life after death for one who merits it, and the Future of this physical world and how it will be changed according to God’s plan is also called the Future World. So it’s both. But it’s essentially the next life. I don’t know if you would agree, but Christ ascended in a spiritually- physical body. So it was physical in appearance, but it had been changed by God in that he didn’t experience death anymore in that new body. So i see that heaven is a spiritual place and that our Souls when we ascend there are also spiritual in a form like Christ’s also.

    Little close to embrace calvinism, but taking a pause and making a real reflection on the meaning of "control" now I know a better way to understand GOd's Will. Thanks a lot dear Professor, greetings from Bolivia, South America.

    It seems pretty clear to me. We turn from idols, trust Jesus, and recreate the world. That’s an evangelistic call if I’ve seen one.
