Motifs
A motif is any recurring element that has symbolic significance in a story. The significance of all the motifs concern the fulfillment of prophecy in Christ. Often a motif is hidden in riddle using other literary devices. The motifs of the Bible are significant because the human author had no way of knowing the details of the cross, and they become proof of divine authorship.
The appointed time
The appointed time motif signifies that all things are under God's control. The first insinuation of the motif is found hidden in the את of Ge 1:1.
את
- Ge 1:1 ¶ In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.
- בראשית ברא אלהים את השמים ואת הארץ Ge 1:1
את means: א Since the creation of the heaven and earth ת until the end (when creation fully responds to his revelation).
Note: God created all things in all times; from beginning to end. Therefore, all things have their own appointed times.
יום
יום day : ו A distinct idea (a vignette) of י what God conceived to do and ם what was brought to completion by the Son.
אחד one : א When God created the heavens and the earth ח there was obedience ד to his word
