ELTB CC Flying things
From 2nd Book
Jump to navigationJump to search
God wants everyone to know him, so all things 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; by the symbols.
These are symbols we know from other places:
The flying things were created to fly or live in the air. They represent characteristics of the spirit. Our spirit is supposed to love God.
- air is the spirit. ruach רוח - spirit, air, breath
- earth is the flesh. Earth, ground adamah אדמה , man adam אדם
- hand yod יד - 'creation י finished by the son ם'
- foot regel רדל - 'kill רד the teaching ל' or 'reveal ר the pursuit ג of teaching ל'

- ↑ ▸ ± Ps 92:4 For thou, LORD, hast made me glad through thy work: I will triumph in the works of thy hands.
- ↑ ▸ ± Ps 111:7 The works of his hands [are] verity and judgment; all his commandments [are] sure.
- ↑ ▸ ± Eze 33:15 [If] the wicked restore the pledge, give again that he had robbed, walk in the statutes of life, without committing iniquity; he shall surely live, he shall not die. ▸ ± Joh 8:12 Then spake Jesus again unto them, saying, I am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life.
