Thinking Aloud

I'm not yet established in a pattern, here, or for that matter a real plan for how to share the daily Torah readings accompanied by a New Testament correlation, but I am praying and striving.

At any rate, here it is Preparation day and I just continue to ponder the sign of the covenant G-d made with Noah. A rainbow, is like G-d's signature . . . but then the New Testament refers to "a rainbow around the throne." When we are blessed to see a rainbow, are we receiving a glimpse of the throne room?

Genesis 9:8-17
And G-d spake unto Noah, and to his sons with him, saying, And I, behold, I establish my covenant with you, and with your seed after you; And with every living creature that is with you, of the fowl, of the cattle, and of every beast of the earth with you; from all that go out of the ark, to every beast of the earth. And I will establish my covenant with you; neither shall all flesh be cut off any more by the waters of a flood; neither shall there any more be a flood to destroy the earth. And G-d said, This is the token of the covenant which I make between me and you and every living creature that is with you, for perpetual generations: I do set my bow in the cloud, and it shall be for a token of a covenant between me and the earth. And it shall come to pass, when I bring a cloud over the earth, that the bow shall be seen in the cloud: And I will remember my covenant, which is between me and you and every living creature of all flesh; and the waters shall no more become a flood to destroy all flesh. And the bow shall be in the cloud; and I will look upon it, that I may remember the everlasting covenant between G-d and every living creature of all flesh that is upon the earth. And G-d said unto Noah, This is the token of the covenant, which I have established between me and all flesh that is upon the earth.

Revelation 4:3
And he that sat was to look upon like a jasper and a sardine stone: and there was a rainbow round about the throne, in sight like unto an emerald.
