Jesus used the imagery of the Galilean Jewish wedding to explain our salvation and His second coming. Many hard to understand scriptures become crystal clear when studied in light of the first century culture. “The Bible was written for us but not to us.” Culture and context matters.
“Let not your hearts be troubled. Believe in God; believe also in me. In my Father’s house are many rooms. If it were not so, would I have told you that I go to prepare a place for you? And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and will take you to myself, that where I am you may be also. And you know the way to where I am going.”” John 14:1-4 ESV
