Today ends Genesis 2
Welcome back to my DTube Hebrew reading & language series.
The full study is now on line covering the Alef-Beyt here in my blog. This is a beginners program to teach letters, vowels, and reading. The vowels are marked in this bible and are designed to help avoid confusion on what a word is and how it is pronounced. The confusion is obvious in the hundreds of interpretations globally. In modern Hebrew, only children need a niqqud or vowel marking for each letter. Old manuscripts also usually have vowels marked.
We are reading Genesis 2:21-25
This will wrap up chapter two of Genesis with the assembly of "Eesha", Woman. I say assembly because she was already there within the man. God had blown "Hayim" (life, complete, plural) into man's nostrils and had not needed to repeat that step.
She was made from what was already within man. "For this reason, he shall leave his father and mother and cling to his wife, and they shall be one flesh."
Not only do we have the classic verse used in almost every marriage, but we see that the man had once had God's full life in him and when he pulled the woman out, they were both wonderful, but incomplete without each other. That is why Yah Himself must be a part of every marriage. If not, there is only fire. The actual words for man and woman change! (see below). It can be burning passion, burning lust, burning jealousy, burning anger but no real love.
God literally builds reality with Hebrew letters.
Here we see the words for man and woman, which have God's Name built right into them. Yud built into the man and hey built into the woman. If you remove God's name from the couple, you have neither man nor woman, but only fire vs. fire. Selfish desires, fights, and divorce.
Sex is commanded by God. Yes, we must!!
There is zero question, from pubescent teens, to retired millionaires. The opposite sex dominates the turn of your head, smiles, red cheeks, and the rush possibilities that fill the soul even at first glance.
Sex motivates career choices, what car, what sport, or what dress, shoes, makeup, and diet we choose. God created all of those feelings for the eventual union of both sides of His Creative Spirit as well as the complete union of the two physical better-halves, created in his image. Nothing is more beautiful that sex as it was designed. When news of a new live comes, there is never disappointment. A lifelong soul-mate is His intention.
If God is not in the mix when interest turns to physical contact, trouble awaits. A child becomes a problem to be dealt with. Break ups are souls being torn apart by people who never invited God into the place of his best gift to us.
The above was written with this scripture in mind - anything further is conjecture which I try to avoid.
