Ok, Hotshot, lets get into it. Do you agree that Isaias 22:20-22 is the foreshadow or prototype of
Matthew 16:16-19? And that the promise of succession began with Abraham [Gen. 17:6]?
Isaias 22:20-22 And it shall come to pass in that day, that I will call my servant Eliacim the son of Helcias, And I will clothe him with thy robe, and will strengthen him with thy girdle,
and will give thy power into his hand:
and he shall be as a father to the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and to the house of Juda.
And I will lay the key of the house of David upon his shoulder: and he shall open, and none shall shut: and he shall shut, and none shall open.
Matthew 16:16-19 Simon Peter answered and said: Thou art Christ, the Son of the living God. And Jesus answering, said to him:
Blessed art thou, Simon Bar-Jona: because flesh and blood hath not revealed it to thee, but my Father who is in heaven. And I say to thee:
That thou art Peter; and upon this rock I will build my church, and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.
And I will give to thee the keys of the kingdom of heaven. And whatsoever thou shalt bind upon earth, it shall be bound also in heaven:and whatsoever thou shalt loose upon earth, it shall be loosed also in heaven.
key of the house of David upon his shoulder: and he shall open, and none shall shut: and he shall shut, and none shall open.
keys of the kingdom of heaven. And whatsoever thou shalt bind upon earth, it shall be bound also in heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt loose upon earth, it shall be loosed also in heaven.
Even Abraham and Jacob, are called a rock and or a stone, as leader of the old testament church. And their names were also changed just like Simon bar-jona to Peter.
Isaias 51:1-2
[1] Give ear to me, you that follow that which is just, and you that seek the Lord:
look unto the rock whence you are hewn, and to the hole of the pit from which you are dug out.
[2] Look unto Abraham your father, and to Sara that bore you:
for I called him alone, and blessed him, and multiplied him.
Genesis 49:24 His bow rested upon the strong, and the bands of his arms and his hands were loosed, by the hands of the mighty one of Jacob:
thence he came forth a pastor, the stone of Israel.
Genesis 17:5 Neither shall thy name be called any more Abram: but thou shalt be called Abraham: because I have made thee a father of many nations."
Genesis 35:10 Saying: Thou shalt
not be called any more Jacob, but Israel shall be thy name. And he called him Israel.
Do you agree to what is cited?
