“A man will leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife…this mystery is profound, but I am talking about Christ and the church.” (Ephesians 5:31-32)
As you open the first pages of this book, imagine that you are holding a hand-addressed and beautifully-stamped wedding invitation delivered directly to you. Your presence is requested as a witness to the mysterious and captivating love story between Christ and His Bride.
Over the next 30 days, we will learn how ancient Jewish wedding traditions are a pattern for this covenant union, and how they have unveiled deep spiritual truths that are still relevant today.
Ladies, this is a great Bible study if you have ever wondered what it looks like for Jesus to be called the “bridegroom” (John 3:24), or what the parable of the 10 virgins means (Matthew 25:1-13), OR what a wedding feast would look like that Jesus references in Mark 2:19-20. “Unveiled: Ancient Jewish Wedding Traditions and The Bride of Christ” by Katie Beehn is a study that walks you through all these concepts and more as it relates to ancient Jewish wedding traditions. Christ paid the ultimate price to have an intimate relationship with us as individuals and us as the church. He desires our hearts. Grab you a copy of the book, a highlighter (there are so many great take aways), and dig in! You can do this study on your own or with a group (there is a separate group study guide to go with the book). Happy Bible study
