Treasure? Israel and the Kingdom

Nov 19, 2023    Dr. Christopher Moody

Jesus’s fifth parable describes God’s kingdom as a hidden treasure that requires a number of steps to secure its possession. God’s “treasured possession” (Ex. 19:5; Ps. 135:4) is Israel, and the field that is purchased is the whole world. Jesus showed His great value for Israel by selling all He had to redeem His people.
