Continuing in the Throne Room of the Universe. While the central character in chapter four was God the Father, here it is God the Son. He is called the Lamb here. He has the legal right to carry out the responsibilities of the Great Tribulation. God the Father has a "book" in His right hand, which is written on both sides and sealed with seven (7) seals. This designation of "book" is actually a scroll. The codex or books of leaves with bindings that we are familiar with did not come into being until early in the second century. This change was due to the Christian era writing and distributing the New Testament. Their size as well as the huge number of copies that flooded the Middle East, Europe and Africa required a more expeditious means of organizing and transmitting the documents. Four qualifications were required in order for a kinsman to redeem:
1. He must be near of kin. (Leviticus 25:48; 25:25 Ruth 3:12–13) 2. He must be able to redeem (Ruth 4:4–6). 3. He must be willing to redeem (Ruth 4:6ff) 4. Redemption was completed when the price was completely paid (Leviticus 25:27; Ruth 4:7-11).
We see these concepts Fulfilled in the New Testament in Jesus the Christ.
Consider the Following: Jesus paid the price. He is our Goel! He is going to redeem the land (take it back from Satan) He is a Jewish man who took a Gentile Bride. (Gentiles in the Church) He is the nearest of Kin to Jews and Gentiles through the incarnation. He is the avenger of blood for Satan killing Adam and Eve. (Spiritually and limiting their human lives) By receiving the scroll, He is taking back (redeeming) the earth.Jesus Christ is our Goel. Jesus is your nearest kinsman.
