Back to Episodes#257 - Kyle Thompson // O Come, O Come Emmanuel
Description
We trace the ancient roots and fierce hope of O Come, O Come Emmanuel, moving from the O Antiphons to Isaiah, 1 Corinthians, and Hebrews to show why “God with us” ransoms captives and shatters death’s sting. We point listeners to a modern take from Skillet and end with a charge to rejoice and stay sharp.
• origin of the hymn in O Antiphons and Latin chant
• Emmanuel as “God with us” from Isaiah 7:14 and Matthew 1:23
• ransom and redemption in Mark 10:45
• the Rod of Jesse and messianic justice in Isaiah 11
• victory over death in 1 Corinthians 15 and Hebrews 2
• encouragement to rejoice and live equipped for the fight
