===> The TORAH of the water, air and land creatures
A. Great whales (Strong's word 8577 = Tannin)
B. Winged fowl
C. Cattle, creeping thing, and beast
===> These entities are a picture of the flesh and Satan's kingdom
===> The TORAH of God creating man to have dominion over His creation
Man was created to have dominion over:
A. Fish in the sea
B. Fowl of the air
C. Cattle and creeping things
===> This is a picture of God desiring for man who was created in His image (Spirit life) to have dominion and rule over the kingdom of Satan the fleshly life) which is represented by fish in the sea, fowl of the air, cattle and creeping things (Genesis 7:21-23, Genesis 9:1-2, Exodus 9:22, Isaiah 35:8-9, 43:19-21).
1. Fish represents people (Ezekiel 47:9-10)
2. Fishers = God's people fishing out the world's people (Hab 1:14)
a. Fish in evil net = Wicked (Ecclesiastes 9:12)
b. God made his followers fishers of men (Matthew 4:18-19)
===> God's TORAH for disobeying His Torah.
1. God's divine order would be reversed. The flesh (children of the night) would rule over the spirit (children of the day) (Deut 28:15,25 = Psalm 79:1-2, Jeremiah 7:3,11,33-34, Jeremiah 15:1-3).
Nebuchadnezzar = A picture of Satan's kingdom = Ruler of: the beasts of the field and fowl of the air (Daniel 2:28,38)
Flesh = Babylon = Satan's kingdom (Revelation 18:1-2,4)
2. God's desire was for His people to not only rule over Satan, but come out from the influence of His kingdom (Mark 4:30-32, Matthew 13:1-4,19).
Fowl (Satan) devoured the seed (Torah). Fowl = Wicked One
===> The TORAH of rest (Shabbat)
Rest = Messiah = Believing God's Torah/Word = Messianic Age = Eternity
God always desired man to enter into His rest by obeying Torah (Hebrews 3:15-19, 4:1-12, Matthew 11:28, Isaiah 11:10).

===> The TORAH of the tree of life
(Prov 3:1,4,13,17-18 = Ps 19:7-8,10, Ps 1:1-3, Jer 17:7-8, Ps 92:12, Rev 22:1-2)
********************************************
* THE TREE OF LIFE IS THE TORAH !!! *

===> The TORAH of changing the truth of God (Torah) into a lie (deception)
A. Genesis 3:1 - Serpent = Beast of the field
B. Genesis 3:3 - Satan changed the Torah of God from (Genesis 2:16-17)
===> This is in violation of God's Torah (Deut 4:1-2, 12:32, Rev 22:18-19)
C. Genesis 3:14 - Satan is cursed ABOVE all cattle and beast of the field
Serpent Woman Man

His seed Her seed (Virgin birth) Earth/Man is under a curse

Anti-Christ Yeshua/Jesus will be born Yeshua will redeem the earth
(False Messiah) of a virgin and man (Galations 3:13)
(Isaiah 7:14, Matthew 1:21-23)
===> The woman (believers) will desire her husband (Yeshua/Jesus) and He (Yeshua/Jesus) will rule over her (The believers) (Genesis 3:16)
Rule = Strong's 4910 = Mashal. The Bible speaks of Yeshua/Jesus doing this in Micah 5:2, Matthew 2:6. Micah 5:2 = Ruler = 4910 = mashal.
===> The woman will bring forth children in sorrow (birth pangs)
This not only speaks of a natural woman having pain in childbirth but also speaks that we go through a birthing process to accept Yeshua/Jesus into our lives. When we accept Yeshua/Jesus into our lives, we become his spiritual children.
To the Jewish people, the time before the arrival of the Messiah to the earth is known as the "Chevlai shel Mashiach" which means "The birth pangs of the Messiah." In the Christian world, this is known as the "tribulation" period.
===> Adam was made in the image of God (Genesis 1:26).
===> Yeshua/Jesus is made in the fashion of man (Philippians 2:8).
===> The TORAH of God's desire for man is to have authority and dominion over His creation (Genesis 2:19-20, Psalm 8:3-8, Revelation 5:10)
This is prophetic of Yeshua/Jesus who is King over all the earth
(Zechariah 14:9, Daniel 7:13-14).
===> Adam named everything signifying his authority (as a king) over it
(Genesis 2:19-20).
Yeshua/Jesus is given his name by God and the name of Yeshua/Jesus is above every name signifying His authority over all things (Philippians 2:7-11).
A. Sleep is a synonymous term for death in the Bible (John 11:11-14).
B. Sleep is a picture of death to the flesh followed by resurrection
(I Thessalonians 4:14-17, I Corinthians 15:51-53).
C. Adam's flesh was cut (wounded) ---> This is a picture of Yeshua's/Jesus' crucifixion
1. Gen 2:21 = Incision in the flesh (a picture of Yeshua's/Jesus death) = John 19:34
2. Yeshua/Jesus being wounded for us (Isaiah 53:1,5)
D. Because of this, God brings forth a woman (Genesis 2:22)
Genesis2:22 ===> Brought her to man = A wedding escort = a type of marriage
Exodus 19:17 ===> Israel (the bride) was brought to Mt. Sinai by Moses (the escort)
The picture of marriage in Genesis 2:22 can be further seen in Genesis 2:23.
This is a picture of Yeshua/Jesus purchasing his bride (the church) by his shed blood
(Acts 20:28, Revelation 5:9).
===> The marriage of Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden is a picture of Yeshua's/Jesus' marriage to His Church (Genesis 2:21-23 = Ephesians 5:25-32).
A. Eve was deceived but Adam was not (I Timothy 2:13-15).
B. Since a picture of crucifixion happened in Genesis 2:21 and sin did not happen until Genesis 3, we see:
===> Provision was made by God for sin before sin actually happened.
C. Yeshua/Jesus was slain (in the mind of God) before the foundation of the world
(Revelation 13:8).
Yeshua is the lamb spoken of in Revelation 13:8 as seen in John 1:29.
===> God kills an animal and provides an animal skin to cover the nakedness of Adam and Eve (Genesis 3:21)
Genesis 3:21 = Coats = Strong's 3801 = from Hebrew root 'to cover'
Yom Kippur = Kippur = atonement = Strong's 3725 = from root 'to cover'
Here we see God providing animal sacrifices TO COVER (not take away) sin
