"Jesus is the Bridegroom of the Church"
Jesus purchased the Church (His bride) with the bride-price of His own life and blood (I Cor. 6:19-20; I Pet. 1:18-19). In Jewish tradition, after the bride-price was paid, the groom would return home to prepare a dwelling for his bride (John 14:2-3). In turn, the bride would prepare her wedding garments in anticipation of her groom’s return. The bridegroom’s return was announced with the sound of a shofar (trumpet, I Thessalonians 4:16-17) followed by the wedding ceremony, the consummation of the marriage, and the week-long wedding feast.
