Bugs and stuff
Flying things on all fours
Le 11:20 All fowls that creep, going upon [all] four, [shall be] an abomination unto you. God wants everyone to know him, so all things that he created teach us something about him. [1]We don't learn from hands, feet, air and earth by looking at them but by what God says about them. These are symbols we know from other places.
|
|
Swarming and reproducing
Le 11:20 ¶ All fowls that creep [swarm], going upon [all] four, [shall be] an abomination unto you. A flying thing is something intended for the air, or spirit. A crawling thing is in the flesh. It would appear that the the flying things that crawl should be living in the spirit but who have chosen to live and work in the flesh. When the hands (works) and feet (life) are in the flesh (on the ground), it is an abomination. Flying things are supposed to be living in the spirit. It is worse when they reproduce or multiply children of the flesh. Christians who choose to live in the flesh and raise children in the flesh, should not be our teachers. [1]
|
|
Leaping things'
Le 11:21 Yet these may ye eat of every flying creeping thing that goeth upon [all] four, which have legs above their feet, to leap withal upon the earth; Allegorically, this critter is clean because although it flies and creeps on all fours, it is distinguished by 'prayer' (kneeling) and leaping into the air, or striving to live in the spirit, 'stripping off the flesh' and 'working out it's salvation with fear and trembling'. [1] The word for leg is also that for kneel, as if in prayer. And leaping is also 'stripping off' or 'tremble'.
|
|
Good examples
Le 11:22 [Even] these of them ye may eat; the locust after his kind, and the bald locust after his kind, and the beetle after his kind, and the grasshopper after his kind. The specific creatures mentioned represent those who are positive influences for us. |
|
Locust
Light is a symbol of holiness. The daughter or family which is holy is a good influence. Even though they still have works and life which are in the flesh, they have been made holy and God is working on them [1]
|
|
Bald locust
Jesus finished the work of the Father, and he was also known as the rock [1].
The bald locust is a reminder of the completed work of Christ. This is the primary lesson of the good teacher. |
|
Beetle
Perfect love casts out fear [1]. The beetle suggests that love accomplishes this by teaching. As we learn who God is and that he is in control we can trust him and not fear in the midst of any circumstance.
|
|
Grasshopper
The 'great and terrible day of the Lord' [1] was the day of the cross. It was a terrible day because the wrath of God was poured out on the sin of mankind born by the flesh of Christ Jesus. But it was a great day as the source of eternal life. The grasshopper reminds us of those people who preach the gospel of life through the resurrection of Christ.
|
|
The exchange
Le 11:23 But all [other] flying creeping things, which have four feet, [shall be] an abomination unto you. Le 11:24 And for these ye shall be unclean: whosoever toucheth the carcase of them shall be unclean until the even. . The evening is the symbol of mixing of grace and judgement. The sins of man are covered by the works of the Son. Only the Son can mix them. Whoever works their folly will be unclean until the exchange [3] |
|
Carrying the carcase [∞]
Whoever exalts the folly of them shall tread his works with the word and be unclean until the mixing. |
|
Creeping things
Creeping things are those things which reproduce quickly. The things listed will all be things that God does not want to spread. [1]}} | |

|
The weasel represents the teaching of this age, or this world.
|
|
The mouse is a symbol of the abounding flesh.
|
|
Some shield themselves from God, such as refusing to read the New Testament, or refusing to read the Bible.
|
|
The whole of creation groans as a result of it's own sin [1] The ferret reminds us.
|
|
Might and power are the opposite of the spirit [1].
|
|
The lizard represents those whose desire for God has become dead.
|
|
The mole represents those who have died desolate. Suggestive of dead authors who were not alive in the spirit. |
