Days of Purim

Could the victory of the Jews in the Days of Purim be pointing to the redemption of the Elect from Babylon?

TRIBULATION: THE CHURCH DEVISING EVIL AGAINST THE ELECT?

Es 9:24 Because Haman the son of Hammedatha, the Agagite, the enemy of all the Jews, had devised against the Jews to destroy them, and had cast Pur <06332>, that is, the lot, to consume them, and to destroy them;

Pr 17:13 Whoso rewardeth evil for good, evil shall not depart from his house.

Ge 50:20 But as for you, ye thought evil against me; but God meant it unto good, to bring to pass, as it is this day, to save much people alive.

2Pe 2:2 And many shall follow their pernicious ways; by reason of whom the way of truth shall be evil spoken of.

Es 3:1 After these things did king Ahasuerus promote Haman the son of Hammedatha the Agagite, and advanced him, and set his seat above all the princes that were with him.

Es 3:11 And the king said unto Haman, The silver is given to thee, the people also, to do with them as it seemeth good to thee.

Es 3:13 And the letters were sent by posts into all the king’s provinces, to destroy, to kill, and to cause to perish, all Jews, both young and old, little children and women, in one day, even upon the thirteenth day of the twelfth month, which is the month Adar, and to take the spoil of them for a prey.

2Th 2:4 Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God.

Job 2:6 And the LORD said unto Satan, Behold, he (Job) is in thine hand; but save his life.

Da 8:24 And his power shall be mighty, but not by his own power: and he shall destroy wonderfully, and shall prosper, and practise, and shall destroy the mighty and the holy people.

Ro 2:29 But he is a Jew, which is one inwardly; and circumcision is that of the heart, in the spirit, and not in the letter; whose praise is not of men, but of God.

Es 7:6 And Esther said, The adversary and enemy is this wicked Haman. Then Haman was afraid before the king and the queen.

1Pe 5:8 Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour:

JUDGMENT: GOD TURNING THE TABLES ON THE HAMAN (CHURCH)?

Es 7:10 So they hanged Haman on the gallows (tree, wood…) that he had prepared for Mordecai. Then was the king’s wrath pacified.

Es 8:7 Then the king Ahasuerus said unto Esther the queen and to Mordecai the Jew, Behold, I have given Esther the house of Haman, and him they have hanged upon the gallows, because he laid his hand upon the Jews.

Es 9:13 Then said Esther, If it please the king, let it be granted to the Jews which are in Shushan to do to morrow also according unto this day’s decree, and let Haman’s ten sons be hanged upon the gallows.

Ga 3:13 Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written, Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree:

Mt 27:5 And he (Judas who betrayed Christ) cast down the pieces of silver in the temple, and departed, and went and hanged himself.

Ge 41:13 And it came to pass, as he interpreted to us, so it was; me he restored unto mine office, and him (chief baker) he hanged.

De 21:23 His body shall not remain all night upon the tree, but thou shalt in any wise bury him that day; (for he that is hanged is accursed of God;) that thy land be not defiled, which the LORD thy God giveth thee for an inheritance.

Es 8:2 And the king took off his ring, which he had taken from Haman, and gave it unto Mordecai. And Esther set Mordecai over the house of Haman.

Es 9:25 But when Esther came before the king, he commanded by letters that his wicked device, which he devised against the Jews, should return upon his own head, and that he and his sons should be hanged on the gallows.

Ps 10:2 The wicked in his pride doth persecute the poor: let them be taken in the devices that they have imagined.

Ps 7:16 His mischief shall return upon his own head, and his violent dealing shall come down upon his own pate.

Joe 3:7 Behold, I will raise them out of the place whither ye have sold them, and will return your recompence upon your own head:

Ob 1:15 For the day of the LORD is near upon all the heathen: as thou hast done, it shall be done unto thee: thy reward shall return upon thine own head.

SALVATION TODAY: DAYS OF PURIM – CELEBRATING DELIVERANCE FROM THE WICKED?

Es 9:28 And that these days should be remembered and kept throughout every generation, every family, every province, and every city; and that these days of Purim <06332> should not fail from among the Jews, nor the memorial of them perish from their seed.

Es 9:30 And he (Mordecai) sent the letters unto all the Jews, to the hundred twenty and seven provinces (127) of the kingdom of Ahasuerus, with words of peace and truth,

Es 9:31 To confirm these days of Purim <06332> in their times appointed, according as Mordecai the Jew and Esther the queen had enjoined them, and as they had decreed for themselves and for their seed, the matters of the fastings and their cry.

Hab 2:3 For the vision is yet for an appointed time, but at the end it shall speak, and not lie: though it tarry, wait for it; because it will surely come, it will not tarry.

Es 9:19 Therefore the Jews of the villages, that dwelt in the unwalled towns, made the fourteenth day of the month Adar a day of gladness and feasting, and a good day, and of sending portions one to another.

Es 9:22 As the days wherein the Jews rested from their enemies, and the month which was turned unto them from sorrow to joy, and from mourning into a good day: that they should make them days of feasting and joy, and of sending portions one to another, and gifts to the poor.

Jer 31:13 Then shall the virgin rejoice in the dance, both young men and old together: for I will turn their mourning into joy, and will comfort them, and make them rejoice from their sorrow.

Joh 16:20 Verily, verily, I say unto you, That ye shall weep and lament, but the world shall rejoice: and ye shall be sorrowful, but your sorrow shall be turned into joy.

127 PROVINCES: THE WHOLE BODY?

Es 1:1 Now it came to pass in the days of Ahasuerus (I will be silent and poor - of Persian origin), (this is Ahasuerus which reigned, from India even unto Ethiopia, over an hundred and seven and twenty provinces (127)

Es 1:19 If it please the king, let there go a royal commandment from him, and let it be written among the laws of the Persians and the Medes, that it be not altered, That Vashti come no more before king Ahasuerus; and let the king give her royal estate unto another that is better than she.

Da 5:28 PERES; Thy kingdom is divided, and given to the Medes and Persians.

2Ch 36:22 Now in the first year of Cyrus king of Persia, that the word of the LORD spoken by the mouth of Jeremiah might be accomplished, the LORD stirred up the spirit of Cyrus king of Persia, that he made a proclamation throughout all his kingdom, and put it also in writing, saying,

2Ch 36:23 Thus saith Cyrus king of Persia, All the kingdoms of the earth hath the LORD God of heaven given me; and he hath charged me to build him an house in Jerusalem, which is in Judah. Who is there among you of all his people? The LORD his God be with him, and let him go up.

Zec 14:16 And it shall come to pass, that every one that is left of all the nations which came against Jerusalem shall even go up from year to year to worship the King, the LORD of hosts, and to keep the feast of tabernacles.

Es 8:9 Then were the king’s scribes called at that time in the third month, that is, the month Sivan, on the three and twentieth day thereof; and it was written according to all that Mordecai commanded unto the Jews, and to the lieutenants, and the deputies and rulers of the provinces which are from India unto Ethiopia, an hundred twenty and seven provinces (127), unto every province according to the writing thereof, and unto every people after their language, and to the Jews according to their writing, and according to their language.

Es 9:30 And he (Mordecai) sent the letters unto all the Jews, to the hundred twenty and seven provinces (127) of the kingdom of Ahasuerus, with words of peace and truth,

Ge 23:1 And Sarah was an hundred and seven and twenty (127) years old: these were the years of the life of Sarah.

Ge 23:2 And Sarah died in Kirjatharba; the same is Hebron in the land of Canaan: and Abraham came to mourn for Sarah, and to weep for her.

Nu 13:22 And they ascended by the south, and came unto Hebron; where Ahiman, Sheshai, and Talmai, the children of Anak, were. (Now Hebron was built seven years before Zoan (place of departure) in Egypt.)

CASTING LOTS: CAUSING DIVISION IN THE BODY OF CHRIST?

Es 9:24 Because Haman the son of Hammedatha, the Agagite, the enemy of all the Jews, had devised against the Jews to destroy them, and had cast Pur <06332>, that is, the lot <01486>, to consume them, and to destroy them;

Ps 22:18 They part my garments among them, and cast lots upon my vesture.

Joh 19:24 They said therefore among themselves, Let us not rend it, but cast lots for it, whose it shall be: that the scripture might be fulfilled, which saith, They parted my raiment among them, and for my vesture they did cast lots. These things therefore the soldiers did.

Pr 16:33 The lot <01486> is cast into the lap (bosom, midst); but the whole disposing (judgment) thereof is of the LORD.

Da 12:13 But go thou thy way till the end be: for thou shalt rest, and stand in thy lot at the end of the days.

SUMMARY CONCLUSION

The Days of Purim appear to typify judgment and salvation on the church where the elect are now celebrating deliverance from the hands of the wicked (Haman/church) who devised evil against the Jews (elect) in tribulation. For this, God returned evil on his own head. King Ahasuerus seems to be a picture of God who reigns over 127 provinces (the whole kingdom?).
