The coney is another unclean animal that the Hebrews did not eat. When Adam named the coney he must have seen the coney take a treasure into his den, then return to the opening to defend it with bared teeth. His name means 'hide the treasure' [v 1] but it also means 'mystery of the biting teeth' [v 2]. The coney is a symbol of a teacher who hides the Gospel. |

Holiness is expressed by separation, the law, and judgement. His love is expressed by patience, long-suffering, and self-sacrifice [1] . Judgement in the Old Testament was required to teach that he is holy. Now through the 'play' which was finished on the cross, His holiness is understood. When his holiness is learned through the cross, God is free to teach of his love. |
