'''Bride and Learner'''
The word kallah ('כלה') usually means "bride," but it also has a deeper meaning. It shows that the bride is not only united with her husband in love, but she is also learning from him. This is important because it reminds us that in the relationship between Christ and the Church, the Church is learning from Christ. This learning process is a big part of what makes their relationship special.
'''The Bride Learning from Christ'''
The Church, as Christ’s bride, learns from Him. This means that the Church is always growing in its understanding of God’s Word. The more the Church learns from Christ, the more it becomes like Him. This shows that being part of the Church is not just about love, but also about growing and changing by learning Christ's teachings.
'''Christ as Teacher'''
Christ is portrayed as the teacher of His bride, the Church. This is a key part of the relationship between Christ and the Church. Christ teaches the Church, helping it grow in wisdom and understanding. This teaching goes beyond just learning facts; it’s about being transformed spiritually. Christ helps the Church grow closer to Him by teaching His truths.
'''From Ignorance to Understanding'''
Before the Church knew Christ, it was in spiritual ignorance. The letter ה ('he') in the word kallah ('כלה') shows that the bride (the Church) starts out not understanding spiritual truths. But as the Church learns from Christ, it goes from not knowing to understanding. This is a powerful transformation where the Church moves from confusion to knowledge, thanks to Christ's teaching.
