Matthew 20
[17] And Jesus going up to Jerusalem took the twelve disciples apart in the way, and said unto them,
[18] Behold, we go up to Jerusalem; and the Son of man shall be betrayed unto the chief priests and unto the scribes, and they shall condemn him to death,
[19] And shall deliver him to the Gentiles to mock, and to scourge, and to crucify him: and the third day he shall rise again.

Revelation 19
[5] And a voice came out of the throne, saying, Praise our God, all ye his servants, and ye that fear him, both small and great.
[6] And I heard as it were the voice of a great multitude, and as the voice of many waters, and as the voice of mighty thunderings, saying, Alleluia: for the Lord God omnipotent reigneth.
[7] Let us be glad and rejoice, and give honour to him: for the marriage of the Lamb is come, and his wife hath made herself ready.
[8] And to her was granted that she should be arrayed in fine linen, clean and white: for the fine linen is the righteousness of saints.
[9] And he saith unto me, Write, Blessed are they which are called unto the marriage supper of the Lamb. And he saith unto me, These are the true sayings of God.

Matt.22 [ 1 ] And Jesus answered and spake unto them again by parables, and said, [ 2 ] The kingdom of heaven is like unto a certain king, which made a marriage for his son, [ 3 ] And sent forth his servants to call them that were bidden to the wedding: and they would not come. [ 4 ] Again, he sent forth other servants, saying, Tell them which are bidden, Behold, I have prepared my dinner: my oxen and my fatlings are killed, and all things are ready: come unto the marriage. [ 5 ] But they made light of it, and went their ways, one to his farm, another to his merchandise: [ 6 ] And the remnant took his servants, and entreated them spitefully, and slew them. [ 7 ] But when the king heard thereof, he was wroth: and he sent forth his armies, and destroyed those murderers, and burned up their city. [ 8 ] Then saith he to his servants, The wedding is ready, but they which were bidden were not worthy. [ 9 ] Go ye therefore into the highways, and as many as ye shall find, bid to the ...

Matthew 2 [4] And when he had gathered all the chief priests and scribes of the people together, he demanded of them where Christ should be born. Revelation 2 [9] I know thy works, and tribulation, and poverty, (but thou art rich) and I know the blasphemy of them which say they are Jews, and are not, but are the synagogue of Satan.

Matthew 12:1-24 and Revelation 9

 Matthew 12:1-24 and Revelation 9 match up. The conceptual match is that Jesus is opposed by the religious leaders and in Revelation evil creatures attack and kill humans. There is a two part structural match.  Matthew 12:1-14 & Revelation 9:1-11 Matthew 12:15-24 & Revelation 9:12-21  firstly: Matthew starts with the disciples eating wheat in a field. Revelation starts with locusts being released. Locusts destroy crops by eating them in the field. In Matthew Jesus gives an example of a sheep falling in a pit and being lifted out. In Revelation the locusts are released out of a bottomless pit. The first structure ends with the religious leaders seeking to destroy Jesus. And in Revelation it ends with the word Apollyon. In Greek the word destroy and Apollyon are the same word. Second structure: Jesus heals all that come to him, but in Revelation four horses are released to slay a third of men. In Matthew Jesus doesn't quench a smoking flax, but in Revelation people ...
