Mark 4:20 And these are they which are sown on good ground; such as hear the word, and receive it, and bring forth fruit, some thirtyfold, some sixty, and some an hundred.

Shalom,
In relation to the Day know man knows the day or the hour, but only Jesus Father: (The Feast of Trumpets)
The Church is Jesus Bride 🙂 What a Bridegroom would have to do in An Ancient Jewish Wedding is pay a dowry (price) for the Bride.
The Price Jesus paid was His Blood:
It was no small price — The Bread and Cup at Communion:
John 6:53-56 – Then Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except ye eat the flesh of the Son of man, and drink his blood, ye have no life in you. 54 Whoso eateth my flesh, and drinketh my blood, hath eternal life; and I will raise him up at the last day. 55 For my flesh is meat indeed, and my blood is drink indeed. 56 He that eateth my flesh, and drinketh my blood, dwelleth in me, and I in him.
Luke 22:19-20 – And he took bread, and gave thanks, and brake it, and gave unto them, saying, This is my body which is given for you: this do in remembrance of me. 20 Likewise also the cup after supper, saying, This cup is the new testament in my blood, which is shed for you.
1 Corinthians 11:26 – For as often as ye eat this bread, and drink this cup, ye do shew the Lord’s death till he come.
Jesus/Yahshua’s Death and Resurrection: Awful price Jesus paid for The Church, His Bride:
Isaiah 53:3 – He is despised and rejected of men; a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief: and we hid as it were our faces from him; he was despised, and we esteemed him not.
Isaiah 50:6 I gave my back to the smiters, and my cheeks to them that plucked off the hair: I hid not my face from shame and spitting.
Isaiah 52:14 As many were astonied at thee; his visage was so marred more than any man, and his form more than the sons of men:
Psalms 22:14 – I am poured out like water, and all my bones are out of joint: my heart is like wax; it is melted in the midst of my bowels.
When a Bridegroom became Betrothed to his Bride in Ancient Israel, (after paying the dowry) — he would say to His espoused/legally married Bride — (The Marriage however unconsummated at this point) —
The last thing the Bridegroom would maybe say or say, is something like: “I go to Prepare a Place for you, and when all is ready I come back for you.”
This is what Jesus said at the Last Supper:
John 14:1 Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me. 2 In my Father’s house are many mansions: (The New Jerusalem) if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. 3 And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also.
In an Ancient Jewish Wedding, what the Bridegroom would do after becoming Betrothed, is that he would go back to his Father’s House (Jesus – Heaven) and he would build a room/honeymoon chamber on to his Dad’s house (Jesus — The New Jerusalem).
If someone would ask the Bridegroom when is the Wedding going to be, he would Respond: “I don’t know, only my Father knows”
He would say this because the Father would be the one, who would approve or Ok the Room or Wedding Room or Honeymoon Chamber, and when he thought everything was good enough, then he would tell the son, ok, now you can go and get the Bride 🙂 !
With The Way Daniel’s 70th Week is going, it may be soon ><>
It could or may be this: 🙂 Jesus is building in the New Jerusalem — and waiting for His Father to give the approval of when He thinks everything is ready — When God approves/gives the Green Light, then Jesus (Yahshua/Yeshua) can descend from Heaven with a shout, with the voice of the Archangel and the Trumpet of God (elements of an Ancient Jewish Wedding too it may be) and get/Rapture His Bride 🙂
Shalom, Blessings, Maranatha ><>
Psalm 45
1 My heart is inditing a good matter: I speak of the things which I have made touching the king: my tongue is the pen of a ready writer. 2 Thou art fairer than the children of men: grace is poured into thy lips: therefore God hath blessed thee for ever. 3 Gird thy sword upon thy thigh, O most mighty, with thy glory and thy majesty. 4 And in thy majesty ride prosperously because of truth and meekness and righteousness; and thy right hand shall teach thee terrible things. 5 Thine arrows are sharp in the heart of the king’s enemies; whereby the people fall under thee.
6 Thy throne, O God, is for ever and ever: the sceptre of thy kingdom is a right sceptre. 7 Thou lovest righteousness, and hatest wickedness: therefore God, thy God, hath anointed thee with the oil of gladness above thy fellows. 8 All thy garments smell of myrrh, and aloes, and cassia, out of the ivory palaces, whereby they have made thee glad. 9 Kings’ daughters were among thy honourable women: upon thy right hand did stand the queen in gold of Ophir.
10 Hearken, O daughter, and consider, and incline thine ear; forget also thine own people, and thy father’s house; 11 So shall the king greatly desire thy beauty: for he is thy Lord; and worship thou him. 12 And the daughter of Tyre shall be there with a gift; even the rich among the people shall intreat thy favour. 13 The king’s daughter is all glorious within: her clothing is of wrought gold. 14 She shall be brought unto the king in raiment of needlework: the virgins her companions that follow her shall be brought unto thee. 15 With gladness and rejoicing shall they be brought: they shall enter into the king’s palace. 16 Instead of thy fathers shall be thy children, whom thou mayest make princes in all the earth. 17 I will make thy name to be remembered in all generations: therefore shall the people praise thee for ever and ever.
