Adam and Eve were created as one entity. Marriage was ordained from the beginning because woman is of man, or originally of adam (small letter because ‘adam means “man”). The etymology of “woman” is from the old English and means “wife-man.”
The meaning of
the word, “wife” is ambiguous since its origin could have come from many
languages. Among the meanings are queen, twisted, bitch, veiled, shame, pudenta
(Etymology Online) or adulteress (Strong’s Dictionary). The most applicable
seems to be “twisted” but not in the negative sense. As “day” in the Hebrew is “hot”
and “night” is “twisted” (ibid), man is as day and woman as night. Spiritually
that applies because God shared His Light (Truth) with Adam but not with Eve.
Likewise, hot
and twisting from the hot, describes processes, as I have previously
suggested in my book, On the Origin of Man and the Universe. All the
creative steps would be processes, and generation of the different “beings” on
Earth would be different processes; as examples, the “first rank,” were space and
matter (Gen 1:1), then earth and water, the invisible kind, celestial objects (unknown-kind),
vegetation (plant-kind), sea-kind creatures, land-kind creatures, and finally
adam-kind. Last of all was a secondary process entirely different than
the creation of ‘adam — the generation of ‘ishah, or “wife-man.”
Using the definition “twisted,” Eve was a reprocessing of Adam, and indeed,
that compares to scripture.
Now consider the
key verses for this commentary.
KEY VERSES: 21 And the Lord God caused a deep sleep to fall upon Adam, and he slept: and He took one of his ribs, and closed up the flesh instead thereof; 22 And the rib, which the Lord God had taken from man, made he a woman, and brought her unto the man. 23 And Adam said, This is now bone of my bones, and flesh of my flesh: she shall be called Woman, because she was taken out of Man. (Gen 2:21-23)
Chapter two
provides the process of generating Adam. God took the elements generated in
Genesis 1:1, generated water, and then earth (the substance). Then God took
water (“mist” in Gen 2:6), mixed it with clay (dust in Gen 7), and “formed” ‘adam.
Hence, God molded
an image in His Likeness (Jesus), and gave ‘adam what Jesus had — the Spirit
of God. God breathed, surely from His side (“lungs”) unto Adam’s side, the
breath of Life. Think of that as an “umbilical cord” from God’s side to Adam’s
side. That “cord of life” is surely the “silver cord” of which Solomon wrote (Ecc
2:6) that would be “loosed” at death. That implies it was “taut” when life was
given from God to ‘adam.
Hence, ‘adam
was molded from God’s substances that He made from His Energy (the Holy
Spirit). Then ‘adam had his invisible “body” blown unto his visible.
Just as the Ghost of Jesus was blown unto Him (as a dove) in “bodily shape”
(Luke 3:22), The man, Adam, had his soul breathed unto him in the bodily shape
of Jesus. That Image of Jesus is the “Ghost” of Adam and would be like Jesus!
Now, consider Adam’s
death for a moment. When Adam sinned, the Spirit of God left him. Hence, Adam
died when Adam gave up His “Ghost” beneath the Tree of Knowledge. Adam will be
reprocessed in days to come. He will be the first to rise and get his “ghost”
back (1 Thes 4:16) at the rapture.
Genesis describes
the process for making “man.” The key verses describe the process for “twisting”
wife-man from man. Twisting implies a change. Processes are a change from one
substance or energy to another substance or energy.
Now consider, “He
took one of his ribs and closed up the flesh.” For this to happen, God “anesthetized”
Adam which is described as a “deep sleep.” (Gen 2:21). In terms of thermodynamics,
the process of generating Adam came to equilibrium, then a new process
commenced. That second process was generating (twisting) wife-man from man. Twisting
even implies an umbilical cord — the silver cord of life!
Translators chose “rib”
for the substance to make wife-man. The Hebrew translated “rib,” is as well translated
“curved side of the body” (ibid). The substance for wife-man was reprocessed.
Just as with a child in utero, wife-man was made from the substance of
man. In other Words, God used man to incubate wife-man. Life was generated from
God to Adam, and then Adam caused Wife to live. Adam transferred both substances
to Eve: matter and Spirit, and with that process, God made Eve a living wife.
Note that woman
was generated by the first Adam to create Wife-adam. Adam’s loss became Eve’s
gain. Adam breathed life unto Eve, “the mother of all,” and with his flesh, he
blew substance unto Eve. He passed along the Holy Spirit of God to Eve with his
“spiritual lungs.”
The “Second Adam”
did the same for both man and wife-man on the Cross. The Cross was God’s “silver
cord” to mankind. He breathed His Holy Ghost unto the Flesh of Jesus when Jesus
was baptized. Then, on the Cross, Jesus gave up the Ghost because it was
finished!
What was finished?
Mankind had been given the substances for regeneration. The regeneration process
was revealed. Whereas Adam had no choice in the matter of his “birth,” the
choice of ‘adam-kind is to be reborn or not to be reborn. They have the
choice of self-abortion or not… to live or not to live. (see yesterday’s commentary on “Choices.”)
Jesus breathed
life unto the earth, to wit: “When they came to Jesus, and saw that he was dead
already, they brake not his legs: But one of the soldiers with a spear pierced
his side, and forthwith came there out blood and water. (John 19:33-34). The “silver
cord” from the Father to Jesus was the Cross. It is the umbilical cord of Life.
Then the “Second Adam” borne mankind just as Adam borne Eve.
(There, I use “borne” because Adam did not birth Eve but transported what God
had made in him to her. The umbilical cord is a means of transference, not
creating.)
Jesus, the Second
Adam, transported His substance to mankind from His curved side, just as
the First Adam had done long ago. His stream of blood from His side to the dust
provided the substances to regenerate new men, to twist them from flesh
to Spirit.
The “blood” represents
the material substances, and the water, the Spiritual substances. It was Living
Water that Jesus bled. As He gave up His Holy Ghost, that substance flowed to
the ground, and became the “silver cord” between God and mankind much as with
Adam to Eve. “Drinking” that water and “eating” that blood is what taking the
Eucharist is all about; it is done in remembrance of Jesus, of course, using
different substances.
When Eve was generated
from Adam, Wife-man came into existence. The First Adam had a bride, so to
speak, and the transference of the Holy Spirit was Holy Matrimony. Eve became
the bride of Adam. In like manner, when Jesus transferred His blood to mankind,
He “married” all mankind. Of course, it is known from scripture that the Second
Adam (Jesus) is the Groom, and the Church (Christ-kind) is the
Bride! (Mat 9:15). Then to go unto
the nations (Mark 24:14), is the “Great Transference”” and is the Bride
giving life unto the world! Through Christians, made in the Image of God, they
breath the life-giving Holy Spirit unto adam-kind.
Note that “rib”
was replaced by “side” but in Genesis 2:23 from the key verses says, “bone of
my bones, and flesh of my flesh.” “Bone” in the Hebrew is not bone; it is ‘etsem,
meaning “substance.” “Bone of my bone” is ‘etsem ‘etsem — substance of
my substance. ‘Adam passed along all the substances generated by God and passed
them along to Eve to make her. “Flesh of my flesh” is “basar basar” — and
literally, “freshness from my freshness” (ibid). Adam passed along life to Eve.
In the vulgar, basar is “pudenta.” Of course, there was no coitus involved but
only “intercourse” from God and that “Intercourse” was God’s Word, and she came
into being.
Jesus, on the Cross,
did the same thing — “basar basar.” His “freshness” spilled onto the
soiled earth to transfer Freshness to freshness. The “silver cord” that had
been loosed when Adam sinned, had been made taut again. Adam would be a new man
made in the Image of God as he was so long ago.
As Adam's life-giving Water was a mist from the River of God, then the process came to completion as water ran from God's "curved side" to the dust on the ground, and Adam was regenerated. The water allowed reforming and in the blood were the elements for the process of regenerating. Adam (mankind) was remade in the same image as Adam was created. When Jesus gave up His Ghost, mankind was regenerated with the same "mist" from the "River of God" (the water from Jesus) as 'adam-kind was in the beginning.
Jews, as I,
believe that Adam is buried beneath Calvary, the place of Adam’s skull. The
blood and water regenerated Adam. Perhaps Adam was one of the dead saints who
arose from the dust the day God died rather than him, and for him!
50 Jesus, when he had cried again with a loud voice, yielded up the ghost. 51 And, behold, the veil of the temple was rent in twain from the top to the bottom; and the earth did quake, and the rocks rent; 52 And the graves were opened; and many bodies of the saints which slept arose, 53 And came out of the graves after his resurrection, and went into the holy city, and appeared unto many. (Mat 27:50-53)
Perhaps rather
than at the general resurrection, Adam was resurrected three days later with Jesus
and confronted the kind with his DNA. Perhaps, as my book, The
Skull of Adam, says, that Jesus confronted his progenitor! Perhaps Adam was regenerated
in the same process that Eve was generated.
Of course, this
is esoteric commentary, but it is from God’s original Word which is believed by
many to be a rudimentary form of Hebrew. Does it not make sense that God would
use the same ingredients (substances) to remake mankind that He did to make
them in the beginning? When I mentally see Adam transporting God to Eve, in my
mind’s eye, I see Jesus, the Second Adam, transporting life unto Adam-kind.
