THE TEMPLE KEYS OF ISAIAH 2222 REVELATION 37 AN...

Timothy Rucker demonstrates in this study that the temple was a key background for Shebna's
position and offense in Isa 22:15-25  which opens a new door for reconsidering the allusions in
Rev 3:7-13 and Matt 16:18-19. He uses intertextuality and critical spatiality in order to
interpret these allusions and their potential implications for the conception of sacred space
among some early Christ followers. The open door of Rev 3:8 is an opportunity to reclaim
potential sacred space for God on earth  so that others may become God's sacred space as well.
In Matt 16:18-19  Peter's key foundational role is to provide teaching that will lead to both
Jesus' assembly manifesting the righteousness of the kingdom on earth and to other Jews
following Jesus as the Messiah. Thus  the temple imagery of Isa 22:22 encourages missionary
engagement in both New Testament contexts.
