Alpha food, Omega food in The Forty Days

 Alpha Food, Omega Food in The Forty Days

AFTER we have the greater exodus from death to life in The Lord’s Supper (at Passover, which originally was from the death cult of Egypt—and read Wright ‘The Day The Revolution Began) we have the strange (to me) alpha food and omega food of the 40 days (a significant number?) between Resurrection and Ascension.

I’m proposing the Our Lord’s action then were 1—proleptic, a shadow of what was to come, 2—prophetic theater, speech crystallized in Symbol, 3—commands.

[These could be ravings of a madman on the back porch!]

THERE AS NO BREAD (ok, broken at Emmaus). But there as the Word. (‘1^st temptation answered by ‘Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds from the mouth……)

There was also breathing on commands re: sin.

What could be omega food? Maybe fish. (Honeycomb is a flw is this argument).

SUMMATION: Alpha food, word. Omega food, fist.

What do do? Thanks for all the fish.

Implications? AFTER we’ve been transitioned from death to life by The Lord’s Supper, and after the third temptation has been overcome by Ephesians 2:6, the new Alpha food is also…music, glorified speech, and the new Omega food is…presence? This is AFTER The Lord’s Supper. Fish are Gentiles/nations/evangelism, eating them is incorporation into the body Body. Feed fish!?

[To repeat, these may be the ravings of a madman on the back porch.]
