  10. The Seven-Sealed Scroll And I saw in the right hand of him that sat on the throne a book written within and on the backside, sealed with seven seals. Revelation 5:1

  11. The Seven-Sealed Scroll And I saw in the right hand of him that sat on the throne a book written within and on the backside, sealed with seven seals. Revelation 5:1

  12. The Seven-Sealed Scroll Psalm 2:1-3 describe the rebellious world forces gathered together to try to prevent God’s Messiah from taking tenant possession or administration of the earth. Psalm 2:7 records that when the Messiah confronts this challenge, He will declare what God has already decreed concerning Him: “Thou art my Son.” . . . the biblical term “son” involves the concept of “heir” (Gal. 4:7). Thus, as God’s Son, the Messiah is the heir of an inheritance given to Him by God. Psalm 2:8 presents God’s description of that inheritance: “I shall give thee the nations for thine inheritance, and the uttermost parts of the earth for thy possession.”

  17. Jeremiah 32:6,7 And Jeremiah said, The word of YHWH came unto me, saying, Behold, Hanameel the son of Shallumthine uncle shall come unto thee, saying, Buy thee my field that is in Anathoth: for the right of redemption is thine to buy it.

  18. Jeremiah 32:8 So Hanameel mine uncle's son came to me in the court of the prison according to the word of YHWH, and said unto me, Buy my field, I pray thee, that is in Anathoth, which is in the country of Benjamin: for the right of inheritance is thine, and the redemption is thine; buy it for thyself. Then I knew that this was the word of YHWH.

  19. Jeremiah 32:9-11 And I bought the field of Hanameel my uncle's son, that was in Anathoth, and weighed him the money, even seventeen shekels of silver. And I subscribed the evidence, and sealed it, and took witnesses, and weighed him the money in the balances. So I took the evidence of the purchase, both that which was sealed according to the law and custom, and that which was open:

  20. Jeremiah 32:12 And I gave the evidence of the purchase unto Baruch the son of Neriah, the son of Maaseiah, in the sight of Hanameel mine uncle's son, and in the presence of the witnesses that subscribed the book of the purchase, before all the Jews that sat in the court of the prison.

  21. Jeremiah 32:13,14 And I charged Baruch before them, saying, Thus saithYHWH of hosts, the God of Israel; Take these evidences, this evidence of the purchase, both which is sealed, and this evidence which is open; and put them in an earthen vessel, that they may continue many days.

  23. The Seven-Sealed Scroll • The meaning of the scroll is best understood by recognizing the following truths: • A Catalog of Judgments • Prophetic Revelation • A Testament • A Deed of Purchase

  24. The Seven-Sealed Scroll And I saw in the right hand of him that sat on the throne a book written within and on the backside, sealed with seven seals. Revelation 5:1

  25. And I saw a strong angel proclaiming with a loud voice, “Who is worthy to open the book, and to loose the seals thereof?” And no man in heaven, nor in earth, neither under the earth, was able to open the book, neither to look thereon. And I wept much, because no man was found worthy to open and to read the book, neither to look thereon. Revelation 5:2-4

  26. The Question of Worthiness • Worthiness hinges on: • Perfect Judgment • Relationship to Mankind

  27. The Question of Worthiness • Worthiness hinges on: • Perfect Judgment • Relationship to Mankind • Right of Possession • Ability to Possess

  28. And I saw a strong angel proclaiming with a loud voice, “Who is worthy to open the book, and to loose the seals thereof?” And no man in heaven, nor in earth, neither under the earth, was able to open the book, neither to look thereon. And I wept much, because no man was found worthy to open and to read the book, neither to look thereon. Revelation 5:2-4

  29. And one of the elders saith unto me, “Weep not: behold, the Lion of the tribe of Judah, the Root of David, hath prevailed to open the book, and to loose the seven seals thereof. “ And I beheld, and, lo, in the midst of the throne and of the four beasts, and in the midst of the elders, stood a Lamb as it had been slain, having seven horns and seven eyes, which are the seven Spirits of God sent forth into all the earth. Revelation 5:5,6

  30. Jeremiah 23:5,6 Behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that I will raise unto David a righteous Branch, and a King shall reign and prosper, and shall execute judgment and justice in the earth. In his days Judah shall be saved, and Israel shall dwell safely: and this is his name whereby he shall be called, THE LORD OUR RIGHTEOUSNESS.

  31. And one of the elders saith unto me, “Weep not: behold, the Lion of the tribe of Judah, the Root of David, hath prevailed to open the book, and to loose the seven seals thereof. “ And I beheld, and, lo, in the midst of the throne and of the four beasts, and in the midst of the elders, stood a Lamb as it had been slain, having seven horns and seven eyes, which are the seven Spirits of God sent forth into all the earth. Revelation 5:5,6

  32. The Lamb • “The Lamb of God” twice in John’s gospel:John 1:29, 36 • Isaiah described Him as a sacrificial lambIsaiah 53:7 • Steven used Isaiah’s passage explaining Him to the Ethiopian eunuchActs 8:32-35

  33. The Lamb Peter describes the precious, sinless blood of Christ “as of a lamb without blemish and spot,” an allusion to the Passover lamb whose blood “covered” the Israelites from the destroying angel in the plague which took the firstborn of Egypt1st Peter 1:19 cf. Exodus 11:5-6; 12:3-13

  34. The Lamb • In fulfillment of the requirement that no bones of the lamb may be broken (Ex. 12:46; Ps. 34:20), the Roman soldiers found Jesus already dead and did not break his legs as they did those of the thieves crucified beside him (John 19:33-36) • Paul clearly understood Jesus to be the Passover lamb. “For indeed Christ, our Passover, was sacrificed for us” (1Cor. 5:7)

  35. And one of the elders saith unto me, “Weep not: behold, the Lion of the tribe of Judah, the Root of David, hath prevailed to open the book, and to loose the seven seals thereof. “ And I beheld, and, lo, in the midst of the throne and of the four beasts, and in the midst of the elders, stood a Lamb as it had been slain, having seven horns and seven eyes, which are the seven Spirits of God sent forth into all the earth. Revelation 5:5,6

  36. As it had been slain • Heaven and earth will pass away and the former things will pass (Rev. 21:1, 4), but will the scars of Messiah ever be erased? • For they serve as a testimony of His love, His resurrection from death (John 20:20, 27), and His identity as Redeemer (Luke 24:30-31)

  37. As it had been slain • The slaying of God’s own Son was not an afterthought in response to an unexpected rebellion. He was “slain from the foundation of the world” (Rev. 13:8) • Peter informs us that He was “foreordained before the foundation of the world, but was manifest in these last times” (1Pe. 1:20)

  38. As it had been slain • This is the pierced Lamb which “every eye will see,” “even they who pierced him” (Revelation. 1:7 cf. Zechariah 12:10)

  39. One Question for You Are you trusting in the slain Lamb, Who was foreordained for your redemption?
