In New Testament times, people usually had a large meal together to celebrate a marriage. This meal was called the “wedding feast.” The feast could be for several days. -The words “wedding” and “wedding feast” were used in the Bible as metaphors. They were used to talk about God’s people living in happiness with God (Isaiah 25:6,8; Hosea 2:16-19; Matthew 22:1-14). Paul used marriage to talk about Christians living with Jesus forever (2 Corinthians 11:2; Ephesians 5:25-32). John wrote about the wedding feast of the Lamb (Revelation 19:7-9; 21:2, 9). This was a way of talking about Christians celebrating and living with Jesus forever. This will happen after Jesus defeats Satan (Revelation 21:1-4; 22:1-5). +The words “wedding” and “wedding feast” are used in the Bible as metaphors.
