When the Bald Locust swarms, there are so many that they may pile up on each other. Perhaps Adam saw them when he named them 'a heap of people'. If we divide the letters of its name differently it means 'the rock that finished the will of the father.'
Jesus was called the Rock [1] [2]. The Bald Locust, representing the Rock, teaches us to see Christ in all the scriptures. Every verse of every chapter of every book of the Old Testament participates in a hidden teaching of Jesus. [3] [4]
Many people will mock the idea that all the scriptures speak of Christ because they can't see him there. Would you try to learn to fix cars from a guy who says cars can't be fixed, or from one who can teach you how?
The bald locust is a reminder of the completed work of Christ. Not only did he complete the work of salvation, but he completes the work of showing the Father by revealing the mystery in the play. This is the primary lesson of the good teacher. The good teacher may teach us how to be good, but it is more important that he teaches us about the love of the Father.
