An example is that of the ‘shibboleth’. David’s men would ask for the password as strangers passed over the mountain. If they said the word with an ‘s’ it meant a single seed. If they said it with a ‘sh’ it meant a whole ear of grain. [2] A single grain needs planted (a picture of..." current

Their name can mean ‘shrub death’. Adam may have named them because of that. But the word also means ‘emaciated’, or ‘wasted away’. The nickname of the cuckow could be ‘Bone-y’. Those who are spiritually dying are not a good source for spiritual teaching. Jesus used the word ‘dead’ to refer to those who are spiritually dead. [1] The person w..." current

Sacrifices were like a holy barbecue. People brought the food, and the priests prepared it according to the script of the play. They had to do it exactly right so that we could learn about God. Green Jello was not welcome at the temple sacrifices. The scoffer, acting like the owl, does not understand ‘Why’, nor does he want to. [1] The..."

They look like they are searching. Did it look to Adam as if they were futile or unsuccessful in their search? The Hebrew name for the kite is “Where?” It is a question asked by people who don’t know God. [1] It is a question our flesh asks. [2]. The kite represents doubters. [3] It is okay to have questions if you are willing to learn. But one who chooses to dou..." current

Maybe the position of his wings made the Vulture look like he was shrugging his shoulders and saying, “I don’t know.” Jesus met some religious leaders who would not accept his teaching. They also would not allow others to learn from Jesus. They tried to disrupt him while he was teaching. They caused others to wander..." current

He grabs food, cuts in line, pushes and shoves to get his way. The osprey is very territorial and pushes other birds away with an aerial dance. The goat, represents the selfish flesh. It is not of the spirit, and so should be avoided. Sometimes we act like goats and sometimes like sheep who wish to follow the Good Shepherd; Jesus. Even the apostl..." current

It would have been quite a sight for Adam to see one tear its food apart and break the bones. He named the ossifrage ‘divide’. There are some people who just like to cause trouble and make people fight each other. Some people even fight over the Bible. The apostle Paul warned us to avoid silly questions that just cause arguments. [4] Sometimes your teacher may say there is no such thing as a stupid..." current

Perhaps Adam saw the lone eagle on high, looking down on all, and thought to himself, "That bird thinks he is a god". When we forget God, we sometimes look down on others and think we can make our own rules. King Nebuchadnezzar forgot God and thought he had built his kingdom all by himself. As a reminder that only God is God, his hair became like eagle's feathers and his nails like eagle's claws. [1] We som..."

Adam watched the flying things that God created and gave them names based on their behaviors. [5] We sometimes give people nicknames based on their behavior. Do you think “Smiley” smiles a lot? Maybe “Sandy” played at the beach a lot. The names of the flying things are used in riddles to speak of the behaviors we are to avoid. [6] The animals probably act the same way today. Bu..." current

He teaches about himself through all the things that have been created. [1] Observing the things themselves does not teach us, but we learn from his word by what he has said about the things. For instance, looking at air does not teach us much because it is invisible. But the Hebrew word ruwach רוח means both ‘spirit’ and ‘wind’.

It is a parallel saying to the teaching of the old and new wine, and the old and new cloth. In scripture, wine represents grace. Old grace was through the ritual sacrifices. Theye did not produce actual grace, but a promise of grace. People were not saved by the blood of animals; the animals were a promise of the blood of Christ. Clothing represents works...." current
