Jesus crushed the head of the serpent - He rested

Holy week. Saturday. Stilla veckan. Lördag.

- It is finished. He rested.

"What Genesis rest might mean" (Gen. 2:2). Baptized into Christ Jesus and his death. United with him. Crucified with him. Freed. Living with him. (Rom. 6:3f.)

"Now in the place where he was crucified there was a garden, and in the garden a new tomb in which no one had yet been laid." (John 19:41 (ESV)



"I will put enmity between you and the woman, and between your offspring and her offspring; he shall bruise your head, and you shall bruise his heel.” (Gen. 3:15 (ESV)







 Paul, a servant of Christ Jesus in Rom- 6:3-8 (ESV) 

"Do you not know that all of us who have been baptized into Christ Jesus were baptized into his death? We were buried therefore with him by baptism into death, in order that, just as Christ was raised from the dead by the glory of the Father, we too might walk in newness of life.

For if we have been united with him in a death like his, we shall certainly be united with him in a resurrection like his. We know that our old self was crucified with him in order that the body of sin might be brought to nothing, so that we would no longer be enslaved to sin. For one who has died has been set free from sin. Now if we have died with Christ, we believe that we will also live with him."

Job 19:25-27

"Men jag vet att min återlösare lever, och som den siste skall han träda fram över stoftet. När sedan denna min sargade hud är borta, skall jag i mitt kött skåda Gud. Jag själv skall få skåda honom, med egna ögon skall jag se honom, inte med någon annans. Därefter trånar jag i mitt innersta."
