By Bible Names of God
Luke 2:32 A light to lighten the Gentiles, and the glory of thy people Israel.
The message of Paul was "To the Jew first," but here the Gentiles are mentioned first. The Jews turned away from Jesus and would not have Him to Rule over them, but the Gentiles will not receive Him either --- just a few. The glory shall rest upon Israel when He comes with Sceptre in hand to Rule a reconstructed earth. The Shekinah Glory, manifested in the tabernacle and temple, will shine again upon His beloved people, and Jesus --- the Jew --- will be the Glory of Israel on that day! Let us love the Jews and see to bring the Gospel of the grace of God to them.
Lord Jesus, Who art the Glory of Thy people Israel, remember Thy persecuted, penalty-paying people and help us to love them. Amen.
