Hi MarkL,

I think this is a very interesting question you have raised –

`Why does the Bridegroom delay, tarry.` (Matt. 25: 5)

My understanding is that the Bridegroom is the Lord, as we all believe & that the Bride is Israel.

`For your maker is your husband, the Lord of hosts is His name; & your Redeemer is the Holy one of Israel.` (Isa. 54: 5)

`I will betroth you to me forever; Yes, I will betroth you to me in righteousness & justice,...` (Hosea 2: 19)

The prophet Daniel, by the Holy Spirit told Israel that they would have 490 years (70 x 7) till their chastisement was completed. Then God would restore them to Himself. However only 483 years were completed up till the time of Christ being acclaimed, in the triumphal entry into Jerusalem. (Dan. 9: 24)

So Israel only had 7 more years to go but they rejected the Lord. He died, rose again & ascended to the Father. He could have come for Israel then but God had another group, the Body of Christ, that was not known till then. So for nearly 2,000 years Christ has been building & maturing His Body & this has caused the `delay, the tarrying,` of the Lord to come again for the nation of Israel.

Marilyn.
