In biblical terms, the concept of "convey" involves the act of transferring, communicating, or carrying something from one place or person to another. This can refer to physical movement, the transmission of messages, or the impartation of spiritual truths. The Bible, while not frequently using the specific term "convey," illustrates the concept through various narratives and teachings.

Physical Conveyance

The Bible often describes the physical conveyance of people and objects. For instance, the Israelites' journey from Egypt to the Promised Land is a significant example of God conveying His people to a place of promise and blessing. In Exodus 13:21, the Lord conveyed the Israelites through the wilderness: "And the LORD went before them in a pillar of cloud to guide their way by day and in a pillar of fire to give them light by night, so that they could travel by day or night."

Conveyance of Messages

The conveyance of messages is a critical theme in Scripture. Prophets were often tasked with conveying God's messages to His people. In the New Testament, the apostles conveyed the teachings of Jesus Christ to the early church. The Apostle Paul, in his letters, frequently speaks of conveying the gospel message. In 1 Corinthians 15:3, Paul writes, "For what I received I passed on to you as of first importance: that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures."

Spiritual Conveyance

The Bible also speaks of the conveyance of spiritual truths and blessings. In Colossians 1:13, Paul describes the spiritual conveyance of believers: "He has rescued us from the dominion of darkness and brought us into the kingdom of His beloved Son." This passage highlights the transformative conveyance from a state of sin to one of redemption and grace.

Conveyance of Authority and Responsibility

The conveyance of authority and responsibility is another important biblical theme. Moses, for example, conveyed leadership to Joshua as instructed by God. In Deuteronomy 31:7-8, Moses encourages Joshua, saying, "Be strong and courageous, for you will go with this people into the land that the LORD swore to their fathers to give them, and you shall give it to them as an inheritance."

Conveyance in Parables and Teachings

Jesus often used parables to convey deeper spiritual truths. Through these accounts, He conveyed the principles of the Kingdom of God in a way that was accessible to His listeners. In Matthew 13:34-35, it is noted, "Jesus spoke all these things to the crowds in parables. He did not tell them anything without using a parable. So was fulfilled what was spoken through the prophet: 'I will open My mouth in parables; I will utter things hidden since the foundation of the world.'"

In summary, the concept of conveyance in the Bible encompasses the physical, spiritual, and authoritative transfer of people, messages, and truths. Through various narratives and teachings, Scripture illustrates how God conveys His will and purposes to humanity.1. (v. t.) To carry from one place to another; to bear or transport.
