From 2nd Book
Jump to navigationJump to search
A dead man is found outside the city. It is determined which is the closest city. The elders take a heifer...
heifer הקר - In formation is "Son of God בר with a mystery of his death and resurrection. This is appropriate because of the mystery of the man's death. It has not been worked since this is a time before the actual work of Christ on the cross.
neck ערף - the skins given Adam and Eve are עור representing the imputed holiness given to Adam. God's holiness, represented by light is אור. The pun says it is a holiness 'like' God's holiness, but not identical. The broken neck represents the covering on the man's death by the future death and resurrection of the Son of God ק.
