The Foreshadowing of Jesus and the Roman Conquest of AD 73 – Wondrous “Fruit”

The foreshadowing of Jesus and the Roman conquest of AD 73 occurs in Numbers chapter 13. In today’s parallel – After 40 days, twelve men brought the Word of God to all of the congregation and showed them the wondrous “fruits” from the promised land. The fruit in Numbers 13:26 are symbolic of the wondrous “fruits” from the Holy Spirit. The promised land of Canaan is symbolic of the promised land of Heaven.

Acts 2:43 Everyone was filled with awe. And many wonders and signs were done through the apostles.

Numbers 13:26 They brought back word to them and to all the congregation, and showed them the fruit of the land.
