The Thrones of the Bible

The Thrones of the Bible: From Isaiah's Vision to the Lamb Upon the Throne

The whole Bible keeps lifting our eyes to a throne. Isaiah sees the LORD high and lifted up, and the temple fills with his train. Daniel watches thrones set and the Ancient of days take his seat. David is promised a throne that will never end, and the writer of Hebrews invites the weary to come boldly to a throne of grace. At the center of heaven, John sees not a tyrant but a Lamb, still bearing the marks of slaughter, seated in the midst of the throne. Each page below follows one throne through Scripture, tells honestly where its meaning is stated and where it is drawn out, and shows how the whole thread leads to Jesus, who sat down at the right hand of the Majesty on high.
