The meaning of man and woman becoming one

The meaning of man and woman becoming one

 

In Mark 10:6-9, “But from the beginning of the creation God made them male and female.” For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and cleave to his wife; And they twain shall be one flesh: so then they are no more twain, but one flesh. What therefore God hath joined together, let not man put asunder.』

Here, 『But from the beginning of the creation God made them male and female』

Looking at this part in Greek, ἀπὸ δὲ ἀρχῆς κτίσεως ἄρσεν καὶ θῆλυ ἐποίησεν αὐτούς Here, ἀπὸ (ap: from) δὲ (de: conjunction) ἀ ρχῆς (Arche: the first) κτίσεως (Krideos: of creation).

If we translate this again, it should be said, “From the first creation he made them male and female.” The first creation is Adam (man). Because man is Adam and man is Adam, errors may occur in translation. In other words, God created man first and separated the woman (rib) from man (Adam), so that man (Adam) became man (Adam). So the first people were people before they became man(male) and woman(femf).

In Genesis 2:21-23, “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 of it; And the rib, which the LORD God had taken from man, made him a woman(female), and brought her unto the man. And Adam said, This is now bone of my bones, and flesh of my flesh: she shall be called Woman(female), because she was taken out of Man.』

The Adam in verses 21, 22, and 23 of Chapter 2 should be referred to as a man (Adam), not as the name Adam. It should be translated, “God caused a deep sleep to fall on man,” and “according to the rib that God took from man.”

『She will be called woman, because she was taken from man.』 If you look at the Hebrew for this part, it is Isha (woman), ki (i.e.), maish (to man), rukaha (taken), and zot (this woman). To translate the part again, 『She will be called Woman, because she was taken by Man.』 Grammatically analyzing the Hebrew word "Meish", where "Meh" is the preposition "min" (meaning direction) It is an omitted form of .

Therefore, it emphasizes the separation of people into men and women. Man symbolizes God as the first man. And man (Christ) and woman (spirit of the angel who sinned) mean those who are separated from man. In other words, the woman represents the spirit of a sinful angel separated from God. The Bible tells us that we are trapped in the world for opposing God, but we must repent and return to God. So, this means in Genesis 2:24, “Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh.” Here, the parent is God. The man is translated as Christ or wife, but it is Isha (woman). The woman represents the sinful spirit that has left God.

This same meaning is emphasized in the New Testament Book of Ephesians. In Ephesians 5:31-32, “For this cause shall a man(Anthropos: ἄνθρωπος) leave his father and mother, and shall be joined unto his wife(Ginaika: γυναῖκα), and they two shall be one flesh. This is a great mystery: but I speak concerning Christ and the church.

Andropos means person or man. Here it would be appropriate to translate it as male. Guinaika (Gune) means woman or wife. Likewise, it would be appropriate to translate it here as woman. This would be the same as the meaning of Genesis 2:24. In the relationship between Christ and the church, the church does not mean a building, but rather the saints. It is emphasized that saints were originally people who left God (beings whose spirit was combined with the dust), but became one after meeting Christ.

『What therefore God hath joined together, let not man put asunder.』

It is impossible for a person to leave God, repent, meet Christ and become one, but then deny Christ and leave again. The believer, who was under the law, realized that salvation could not be obtained through the law, discovered Christ (gospel) through the sacrifice within the law, united with Christ, believed in his death on the cross and resurrection, and became one in Christ.

However, it makes no sense to say that we leave Christ and return to the law. God has now accepted those who are in the gospel, so how can humans reject this gospel and go back to the way it was before? If he goes back to the law, he probably does not know the meaning of the gospel. He believes that he has accepted the gospel on his own, but he only believes in words without knowing the meaning.

Mark 10:2-5 And the Pharisees came to him, and asked him, Is it lawful for a man to put away his wife? tempting him. And he answered and said unto them, What did Moses command you? And they said, Moses suffered to write a bill of divorce, and to put her away. And Jesus answered and said unto them, For the hardness of your heart he wrote you this precept.』

The divorce certificate written by Moses represents the law. This is because spiritual divorce means leaving the gospel of God and returning to the law. Anyone who enters into the law has a hard heart. Even today, there are people who say that they will achieve heaven by hearing the gospel and uniting with Christ, but they still follow the law.

Apostle Paul said in Galatians 5:1, “Stand fast therefore in the liberty wherewith Christ hath made us free, and be not entangled again with the yoke of bondage.” For believers to follow the law is to bear the yoke of slavery again. Matthew 7:6 『Give not that which is holy unto the dogs, neither cast ye your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet, and turn again and rend you.』 When referring to dogs in the Bible, the habits of dogs represents. In Proverbs 26:11, 『As a dog returns to his vomit, so a fool returns to his folly.』 This applies to people who God gave believers freedom from the law, but who live bound by the law again. .

In Philippians 3:2, “Beware of dogs, beware of evil workers, beware of the precision.” Injury means circumcising the body according to the law. Dogs, evildoers, and those who receive circumcision refer to people who think they are saved by believing in Jesus Christ, but still cannot escape legalism. Jesus was crucified under the law, and those in Christ have all died to the law. If they try to apply the law again, they will become like dogs in God's eyes, ignoring what Jesus accomplished.

『Do not throw your pearls before pigs』, pearls refer to the church where Jesus Christ sells everything and buys it for a price. The Bible says that those who have been forgiven of their sins and freed from the law through Jesus Christ, but still try to follow the law and enter into sin, are called dogs and pigs.

All sins have been forgiven in Christ, but if a person tries to become a holy person by judging whether or not he will sin again based on the law, he will become a dog or a pig before God. So, “Lest they trample on it and turn and tear you to pieces.”

Dogs and pigs (legalists) are hurting the church (saints of the gospel). Those who follow the law trample and hurt the saints in Christ. In the early church, legalists tried to persuade believers within the church to return to Judaism. They harassed the believers through persecution and cajoling.

There are many cases of a return to legalism in the church today. They are doing things like making tithing mandatory, misleading church buildings into thinking they are holy temples, insisting on observing Sundays, observing the Sabbath, and creating new feasts to observe. This is because they do not strictly know the gospel.

In Mark 10:11-12, “And he saith unto them, Whosoever shall put away his wife, and marry another, committeth adultery against her.” And if a woman shall put away her husband, and be married to another, she committeth adultery.』 The act of marrying someone else means leaving behind the gospel and returning to the law. This is called a half-gospel. This is because the half-gospel only focuses on the problem of sin. This is because we are looking at a body that has no choice but to sin in the present. They only see the death of the cross, and although they believe in resurrection, they treat it as someone else's business while they are alive.

This is because they mistakenly believe that only the death and precious blood of Jesus on the cross apply while they are alive, and that the resurrection only applies when the body dies. In order for believers to enter into Christ, they must be united with Jesus who died on the cross and with the resurrected Christ. This is the present death and resurrection of the cross. This is something that happens in the present, not in the past or future.

In Romans 6:3-5, “Know ye not, that so many of us as were baptized into Jesus Christ were baptized into his death? Therefore we are buried with him by baptism into death: that like as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life. For if we have been planted together in the likeness of his death, we shall be also in the likeness of his resurrection:』
