  1. 1 Genesis 3:8

    Then the man and his wife heard the voice of the LORD God walking in the garden in the breeze of the day, and they hid themselves from the presence of the LORD God among the trees of the garden.

    A garden where God walked with people. After the first sin, they hide from Him.

  2. 2 Genesis 3:15

    And I will put enmity between you and the woman, and between your seed and her seed. He will crush your head, and you will strike his heel.”

    Inside the curse is the Bible’s first promise of a rescuer.

  3. 3 Exodus 12:13

    The blood on the houses where you are staying will be a sign; when I see the blood, I will pass over you. No plague will fall on you to destroy you when I strike the land of Egypt.

    Slaves in Egypt. On the night of the first Passover, a lamb’s blood on the door spares the house.

  4. 4 Isaiah 53:5

    But He was pierced for our transgressions, He was crushed for our iniquities; the punishment that brought us peace was upon Him, and by His stripes we are healed.

    Isaiah sees someone coming who will suffer for other people’s wrongs.

    Then He comes, at the moment God chose.

    And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying: “Behold, the dwelling place of God is with man, and He will dwell with them. They will be His people, and God Himself will be with them as their God.

    The last page undoes the first: the people who hid from God now live with Him.

From hiding from God to living with God. That is the whole Bible, and Jesus is the bridge.
