Day 350..."On that day...Moving into the final Books"

We only have about fifteen days of reading left. In four days, we will be done with the Old Testament. Today, we end Zechariah. Zechariah begins so many passage with..."On that day." This phrase sums up the future look. The last two chapters are filled with images of the day of the Lord. The last passage begins and ends with the phrase..."And on that day there shall be inscribed on the bells of the horses, “Holy to the Lord.” And the pots in the house of the Lord shall be as the bowls before the altar. And every pot in Jerusalem and Judah shall be holy to the Lord of hosts, so that all who sacrifice may come and take of them and boil the meat of the sacrifice in them. And there shall no longer be a trader in the house of the Lord of hosts on that day."

Hebrews, chapter two, makes a strong Abraham connection with Jesus..."For surely it is not angels that he helps, but he helps the offspring of Abraham. Therefore he had to be made like his brothers in every respect, so that he might become a merciful and faithful high priest in the service of God, to make propitiation for the sins of the people. For because he himself has suffered when tempted, he is able to help those who are being tempted." We are going to read more how Christ is the new sacrifice and atonement for our sins.

As the seals are broken Revelation focuses on a white, red, black, and pale horses. Also, we read about souls under an altar and a day of earthquake. Refer to your study notes often and Revelation will make more sense by the references of each of these images. There are many others ahead in the final two weeks of reading.
