Genesis 3: 20-21

she was the mother of all living
 
『And Adam called his wife's name Eve; because she was the mother of all living.  Unto Adam also and to his wife did the LORD God make coats of skins, and clothed them. 』 (Genesis 3: 20-21)

God made Adam in this world and led him into the garden of Eden. And just as the paired door was split in half, God separated the woman from Adam. This story explains that the spirits who have sinned in the kingdom of God have come into the earth in Christ.

And Adam named the woman Eve. Being Adam and Eve means that the door becomes one again. In these words is the promise that the last Adam will save his spirits. So, the spirits to be saved are called the living. Eve represents spirits, and it means that all spirits who come to this world will be saved through the last Adam. So God put Adam and Eve in leather.

The name woman means helping. Helping Bepil (Hebrew: Nephishhai) is one who needs one side of the pair and one who needs help. That is, the spirits coming into the earth from the kingdom of God. They need Adam's help. Nephishhai means all living things on earth. So, all living things (all things) need Christ's help. In 1 Corinthians 15: 35-39『 But some man will say, How are the dead raised up? and with what body do they come? Thou fool, that which thou sowest is not quickened, except it die:  And that which thou sowest, thou sowest not that body that shall be, but bare grain, it may chance of wheat, or of some other grain:  But God giveth it a body as it hath pleased him, and to every seed his own body.  All flesh is not the same flesh: but there is one kind of flesh of men, another flesh of beasts, another of fishes, and another of birds. 』 All living things are resurrected. Although the glory is different, it is resurrected. So the name "woman" means all living things awaiting the resurrection in the power of Christ in this world.

In 1 Corinthians 15:45『 And so it is written, The first man Adam was made a living soul; the last Adam was made a quickening spirit. 』 Adam is the image of Christ, and the woman is the living being (the spirits of heaven) who needs the help of Christ. So, when the helped spirit becomes one with Christ, it gets the name Eve. In Romans 5:14『 Nevertheless death reigned from Adam to Moses, even over them that had not sinned after the similitude of Adam's transgression, who is the figure of him that was to come. 』

The spirits that have entered the earth are shaped like angels. The angels did not keep their position and abandoned their dwelling place and entered the earth. So, when they die, they become angels again in Christ. In Matthew 22:30『 For in the resurrection they neither marry, nor are given in marriage, but are as the angels of God in heaven. 』 Jesus said. Spirits must wear clothing, the Bible says, in this land they are dressed in mud, and in the kingdom of God they are wearing heavenly dwellings (houses, clothing).『Unto Adam also and to his wife did the LORD God make coats of skins, and clothed them. The coats of skins symbolize the Passover lamb. Jesus is the shepherd of the sheep. In Jeremiah 50: 6『 My people hath been lost sheep: their shepherds have caused them to go astray, they have turned them away on the mountains: they have gone from mountain to hill, they have forgotten their restingplace.』

In Isaiah 53:6, 『All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned every one to his own way; and the LORD hath laid on him the iniquity of us all. So, Jesus is dying as a Passover lamb for "spirits who are deceived and went in the wrong direction." This meaning is in the name Jesus. Jesus means "Jehovah Saves." It means that Jehovah comes to the earth in the flesh and saves his people (spirits) on the cross by death.

Philippians 2: 6-8『 Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God: But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men: And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross. 』 Jesus Christ is the Lord God in the kingdom of God. When Thomas asked Jesus to show God, Jesus said, "If you look at me, you have seen the Father." This means that Jesus and Heavenly Father are one. So when Jesus prayed before he died on the cross, he prayed for the disciples to be one. In John 17:21『 That they all may be one; as thou, Father, art in me, and I in thee, that they also may be one in us: that the world may believe that thou hast sent me. 』

When the saint is in Christ, the saint is one with God. Spirits who have left God and come to this world are also wearing leather garments (Lamb: Christ) to become one with God and to restore God's image. Many people misunderstand the image of God as a character. 『God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them. (Genesis 1:27). God's image is not what the human eye sees. In John 4:24『 God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth. 』 The Spirit appears in the living beings by the power of the Holy Spirit. This is the image of God. In Colossians 1:15, 『Who is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of every creature:』

Jesus is the one who appears in the image of God. The image is that the Spirit of God appears in Jesus Christ through the power of the Holy Spirit, and the invisible God appears as the visible God.

God's image (spirit) in all humans born on earth has died. There is no way to know the kingdom of God by being trapped in the soil. So, when we enter into Christ, God's image is restored to know God and become one with God. The fact that God clothed Adam and Eve with leather garments meant that God would come down to himself as a lamb to the earth, save their spirits, and take them back to the kingdom of God. The leather garment symbolizes Christ, and has the same meaning as the Ark of Noah's day.

Why does Christ bring spirits to this world and bring spirits back to the kingdom of God? Because they are sheep. Because the sheep are deceived by Satan and go their way. Jesus makes the door (cross) for the sheep to enter through the death of the cross. Those who repent and turn will enter through a narrow door. When the sheep hear the shepherd's voice and turn, the one who turns will live.

Genesis 3: 8-9

Adam and his wife hid themselves from the presence of the LORD God amongst the trees of the garden.   『 And they heard the voice of the LORD God walking in the garden in the cool of the day: and Adam and his wife hid themselves from the presence of the LORD God amongst the trees of the garden.   And the LORD God called unto Adam, and said unto him, Where art thou? 』 (Genesis 3: 8-9) The day of the day is the same day as the first and second days. When the wind blows, it is "Rauach" in Hebrew. In other words, the Hebrew word "Rauach" has the meaning of wind, breath (breath), blow, and spirit. In Genesis 1: 2 『 And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters. 』 Here, Spirit is Rauach. In Genesis 1: 2 it is translated as spirit, and in 3: 8 it is translated as "when the wind blows." Therefore, the phrase “ when the wind blows that day ” should...

Genesis 2:25

T hey were both naked, the man and his wife, and were not ashamed 『 And they were both naked, the man and his wife, and were not ashamed. 』 (Genesis 2:25) Being "not ashamed" means not knowing what is naked. Just as spirit wears the clothes of the spirit in the kingdom of God, so do humans. The fact that they are naked means that they are naked in the world, but that they are not wearing spirit clothes. Because the angels which kept not their first estate, but left their own habitation, they wore earthen clothing. So they do not know that they have left the kingdom of God. In 2 Corinthians 5: 1-3 『 F or we know that if our earthly house of this tabernacle were dissolved, we have a building of God, an house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens.   For in this we groan, earnestly desiring to be clothed upon with our house which is from heaven:   If so be that being clothed we shall not be found naked. 』 The dwelling place from heaven is the body of the spirit. Whe...

Genesis 1:24-27

(God created man in his own image)   Genesis 1:24-27『And God said, Let the earth bring forth the living creature after his kind, cattle, and creeping thing, and beast of the earth after his kind: and it was so. And God made the beast of the earth after his kind, and cattle after their kind, and every thing that creepeth upon the earth after his kind: and God saw that it was good. And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth. So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them. 』   What is God's image? Many people misunderstand God's image as a character. So, they think that people have good things because they have the character of God in their hearts. However, when people live in the world, they say that they h...
