EVE IS A PORTRAIT OF THE BRIDE OF YESHUA, JESUS. THE EARTHLY MARRIAGE OF ADAM AND EVE POINTS TO THE HEAVENLY MARRIAGE OF YESHUA AND HIS PEOPLE.
THE APOSTLE PAUL SAYS THAT ADAM WAS A PATTERN OF THE ONE, YESHUA, THAT IS TO COME:
"AS DID ADAM, WHO WAS A PATTERN OF THE ONE TO COME."
THE APOSTLE PAUL CALLS YESHUA THE "LAST ADAM":
"SO IT IS WRITTEN: ' THE FIRST MAN ADAM BECAME A LIVING BEING; THE LAST ADAM, A LIFE-GIVING SPIRIT.'" 1 COR 15:45
JUST AS EVE WAS TAKEN OUT OF ADAM, THE BRIDE OF YESHUA IS FORMED OUT OF YESHUA'S DEATH ON THE CROSS.
GENESIS 2:23, 24 SAYS:
"THIS IS NOW BONE OF MY BONES AND FLESH OF MY FLESH, SHE SHALL BE CALLED WOMAN FOR SHE WAS TAKEN OUT OF MAN."
THE APOSTLE PAUL SAYS TO THE EPHESIANS:
"...FOR WE ARE MEMBERS OF HIS BODY. FOR THIS REASON A MAN WILL LEAVE HIS FATHER AND MOTHER AND BE UNITED TO HIS WIFE, AND THE TWO WILL BECOME ONE FLESH. THIS IS A PROFOUND MYSTERY, BUT I AM TALKING ABOUT CHRIST AND THE CHURCH." EPHESIANS 5: 30-32
YESHUA'S DEATH ON THE CROSS IS FORESHADOWED BY GOD'S CAUSING ADAM TO FALL INTO A DEEP SLEEP, OPENING UP THE FLESH ON HIS SIDE, AND REMOVING HIS RIB.
"SO THE LORD GOD CAUSED THE MAN TO FALL INTO A DEEP SLEEP, AND WHILE HE WAS SLEEPING, HE TOOK ONE OF THE MAN'S RIBS AND CLOSED UP THE PLACE WITH FLESH." GEN 2:21
THE OPENING OF THE FLESH ON THE SIDE IS A PROPHETIC PICTURE OF THE SPEAR BEING THRUST INTO YESHUA'S SIDE WHEN HE WAS ON THE CROSS. IMMEDIATELY AFTER, THE WRITER IN THE BOOK OF JOHN SAYS "BLOOD AND WATER FLOWED OUT." JOHN 19:34. YESHUA SAYS THAT THIS BLOOD WAS POURED OUT FOR ALL PEOPLE IN ORDER THAT THEIR SINS BE FORGIVEN. THE WATER SYMBOLIZES THE HOLY SPIRIT POURED OUT TO CLEANSE US AND SANCTIFY US. ANY THAT BELIEVE THIS MESSAGE BECOME COVENANTED WITH YESHUA; BECOME MARRIED AND BECOME ONE WITH HIM.
YESHUA SAYS THAT THE CUP OF RED WINE AT THE PASSOVER MEAL WAS TO REPRESENT THIS. HE SAYS:
"THE CUP IS THE NEW COVENANT IN MY BLOOD, WHICH IS POURED OUT FOR YOU." LUKE 22.20
YESHUA SAYS TO THE PEOPLE:
"TRULY, I SAY TO YOU, UNLESS YOU EAT THE FLESH OF THE SON OF MAN AND DRINK HIS BLOOD, YOU HAVE NO LIFE IN YOU. THOSE WHO EAT MY FLESH AND DRINK MY BLOOD HAVE ETERNAL LIFE, AND I WILL RAISE THEM UP ON THE LAST DAY...THOSE WHO EAT MY FLESH AND DRINK MY BLOOD ABIDE IN ME, AND I IN THEM." JOHN 6:53-56
OUT OF YESHUA'S DEATH, WE BECOME THE BRIDE. WE MUST GO TO THE PLACE OF THE CROSS AND ACCEPT WHAT HE DID FOR US, WHICH WAS TO DIE IN OUR PLACE, SO THAT WE CAN BECOME ONE FLESH WITH HIM.
"THEN THE LORD GOD MADE A WOMAN FROM THE RIB HE HAD TAKEN OUT OF THE MAN, AND HE BROUGHT HER TO THE MAN." GEN 2:22
THIS IS THE PURPOSE OF CREATION: FOR GOD, KNOWING THAT THE FIRST ADAM WOULD FAIL IN HIS MISSION, WOULD BRING TO YESHUA HIS BRIDE IN THE HUPPA OR HOUSE THEY WILL BUILD TOGETHER.
AND YESHUA WILL SAY, "THIS IS NOW BONE OF MY BONES AND FLESH OF MY FLESH." GEN 2: 23. THE HEBREW WORD FOR BONE IS "ETSEM" AND IT MEANS SELF, ESSENCE, THE SAME AS. THE HEBREW WORD FOR FLESH IS "BASAR" AND IT MEANS BODY. FOR THROUGH OUR BELIEF IN YESHUA'S SACRIFICE FOR US WE BECOME ONE WITH HIM AND WE BECOME LIKE HIM. THE APOSTLE PAUL SAYS:
"AND WE, WHO WITH UNVEILED FACES ALL REFLECT THE LORD'S GLORY, ARE BEING TRANSFORMED INTO HIS LIKENESS WITH EVER-INCREASING GLORY, WHICH COMES FROM THE LORD, WHO IS SPIRIT." 1 COR 3:17
