The first three are types or pictures of Jesus, the last 11 are direct statements about Him being raised up: 1) Genesis 22:4 Then on the third day Abraham lifted up his eyes, and saw the place afar off. See the explanation of this type: Hebrews 11:17-19 By faith Abraham, when he was tried, offered up Isaac: and he that had received the promises offered up his only begotten son, Of whom it was said, That in Isaac shall thy seed be called: Accounting that God was able to raise him up, even from the dead; from whence also he received him in a figure. 2) 2 Kings 20:5 Turn again, and tell Hezekiah the captain of my people, Thus saith the LORD, the God of David thy father, I have heard thy prayer, I have seen thy tears: behold, I will heal thee: on the third day thou shalt go up unto the ...

Seven Tabernacles/Temples In The Word Of God I love sevens. Did you ever think of this one? Scripturally, there are seven tabernacles/temples (ie. dwelling places of God among His people) in the Bible: 1. The tabernacle in the wilderness.
