"But all things that are reproved are made manifest by the light: for whatsoever doth make manifest is light."(Eph.5.13). So we have the judgment of God and it before the light. " And I saw a great white throne, and him that sat on it, from whose face the earth and the heaven fled away; and there was found no place for them." (Rev.20.11) Here we can understand why God began with light under the covenant. The earth that abides forever is lit by light of the Lamb. The world has no place there.The earth and heaven flees away from the face of God as Cain did. He was the wicked one.
God tells Abraham,"For the iniquity of the Amorites is not yet full."(Gen.15.16). It shall be full only when God judgesfrom his throne of light. So what do we make of the extent of the nation promised to him. So Abraham lives," By faith he sojourned in the land of promise, as in a strange country, dwelling in tabernacles with Isaac and Jacob, the heirs with him of the same promise:/ For he looked for a city which hath foundations, whose builder and maker is God." (He.11.9-10). These all died in faith.
Why did Israel went to Egypt in the first place. The wicked brethren of Joseph sinned 'against God and before thee'- and Joseph is set as a double for the Son in the covenant, and they had to be brought to light." The Jews rejected Jesus 'when God sent him as his only begotten Son' and they were scattered from their land in 70 CE and as with many times before, their diaspora is not the end of it. The land they now occupy is not according to the will of God."The LORD hath said concerning you, O ye remnant of Judah; Go ye not into Egypt: know certainly that I have admonished you this day." (Jer.42.19) Jeremiah's words are relevant even this day. They shall be thrown out as garbage,- and we are in for another big one, 2 Pet.3.11-13. 'This day' spoken by Jeremiah points to the day of the Lord. " Nevertheless we, according to his promise, look for new heavens."
