Marriage Supper of the Lamb
The "Marriage Supper of the Lamb" is a significant eschatological event described in the Book of Revelation, specifically in Revelation 19:7-9. This event symbolizes the ultimate union between Christ (the Lamb) and the Church, which is often referred to as the Bride of Christ. The imagery of a wedding feast serves to highlight the joy, celebration, and fulfillment that comes with this divine union. The "supper" signifies not only a time of rejoicing but also the completion of salvation history, where the faithful are rewarded for their faith and perseverance.In biblical tradition, marriage is often used as a metaphor for the relationship between God and His people. For instance, in the Old Testament, Israel is depicted as God's bride (Jeremiah 3:14; Hosea 2:19-20), and in the New Testament, the Church is portrayed as the bride of Christ (Ephesians 5:25-27). The Marriage Supper of the Lamb, therefore, represents the culmination of this relationship, where believers are invited to partake in the blessings of eternal life and communion with Christ at the end of the age. This event signifies the joyous celebration of victory over sin and death, as well as the establishment of God's kingdom in its fullness.
