Bible Question:
What is his loins? is just for men. In Genesis Chapter 46 v 26 All the souls that came with Jacob into Egypt, which came out of his Loins, besides Jacob;s sons' wives, all the souls were threescore and six: Love Leftwich |
Bible Answer: This is a very good question. When God created Adam, he created a man. This was the first man. But yet the Bible says that God create male and female. Read Gen 1:27. God create Adams spirit before he created him a body. Next God create Adam a body and breathed that spirit inside of the body. Adam possesed the male and female part spiritually that God had created. The male and female part of Adam was one spirit but yet he was a man. When God put Adam in a deep sleep, he made a woman out of the rib of Adam. Now the female part that dwelled inside of Adam was now living in another body and therefore the male and female part of Adam became separated. Remember this is a spiritual separation not physical. Next God gives the woman to Adam as a father would give his daughter in marriage. This is when God institutionalized marriage. Noticed that Adam calls her woman because she was taken out of the man. Read Gen 2:23-24. When the male and female were one spirit, they lived inside of one body and were in perfect unity. In Gen 2:21, God separted the male and female and made them 2. This is pretty heavy so write me back if you don't understand what I am saying. O.K., now let go into the new testament and see what Jesus has to say.(Read Matt. 19:4-6). When a man leaves his mother and father and unites with a woman in marriage they no longer are separate, but rather are one flesh. Remember God made the male and female to come together and become one flesh as they were in the beggining. This is why a man and woman have a natural desire to come together and become one because God ordained it. In Ephesians 5:28, Paul states that a man should love his wife as much as he loves his own body. Without going any deeper I said all of that to say as the Apostle Paul stated, that the man did not come from the woman but rather the woman came out of the man. Therefore even Eve herself came from Adam and everything she produced goes back to Adam because she came from Adam herself. This is reason that a man has an X and Y chromosome and children always have the same blood type as their father. You the man put the seed inside of the woman through his blood. While the woman carries the child and the child is given a blood tranfusion from the woman until he is born. Therefore the woman supports the childs life until the child is born. When God separated the man and woman, He made a difference between the two and they are only become one in marriage. Why else do you think Adam was persuaded by the woman to sin against God. Adam loved this woman so much because she came from him. Therefore he chose the woman over God. Anderw Jr. |
