Ephsiyah-Ephesians 5: 25 Husbands, love your wives, even as Moshiach also loved the Yisraelite
congregation, and gave Himself for it;
26 That He might set it apart and cleanse it with the washing of mayim by the word,
31 For this cause shall a man leave his abba and eema, and shall be joined to his wife, and the
two shall be basar-echad. i
32 This is a great sod: but I speak concerning the Moshiach and the Yisraelite congregation. ii
At this juncture we must remember that it was the pre-incarnate Yahshua that
actually gave His bride Yisrael the Torah and not the Father. As seen in
Devarim/Deuteronomy 33: 2, 3, and Exodus 24:9-11, it was the body, or bone
of heaven, that actually gave Torah to the nation of Israel. So it was the
Redeemer-YHWH, or Yahshua, as seen in Yeshayahu/Isaiah 54:5 who married
Yisrael and thus it was Yisraels sin against Yahshua, not the Father that resulted
in her unfaithfulness. See Yeshayahu/Isaiah 63:8-9.
The events that unfolded in Shemot/Exodus 19:8 are a simple and clear wedding
betrothal. The nation said we do, as Moshe escorts the bride to the chuppah, or
canopy as seen in Shemot/Exodus 19:18 where the smoke serves as the
chuppah. The shofar announces the coming of the Bridegroom Yahshua to enter
under the shechinah with His bride to cover her nakedness. Through time, the
Scriptures tell us in numerous places that Yisrael uncovered herself with spiritual
harlotry and unfaithfulness, thus placing her in line for Yahshua's judgments.
Lets see why Yahshua really had no choice but to die on this earth in the exact
manner He did.
Numbers 5:
11 And vuvh spoke to Moshe, saying,
12 Speak to the children of Yisrael, and say to them, If any man's wife goes aside, and commits
a trespass against him,
13 And a man lies with her carnally, and it is hidden from the eyes of her husband, and is kept
secret, and she is defiled, and there was no witness against her, nor was she caught;
14 And the ruach of jealousy comes upon him, and he becomes jealous of his wife, and she is
defiled: or if the ruach of jealousy comes upon him, and he is jealous of his wife, and she is not
defiled:
According to the Torah if a husband merely suspects His wife of being unfaithful
and jealousy arises in him, he is to pursue justice. Yahshua as seen in
Shemoth/Exodus 20:5 is the jealous Husband.
5 You shall not bow down yourself to them, nor serve them: for I vuvh your Elohim am a jealous
Elohim,
Yahshua who married Yisrael became jealous for His bride. In Shemot/Exodus
32:20, Yisrael drinks of the bitter waters of the melted powder of the golden calf,
20 And he took the calf that they had made, and burned it in the fire, and ground it to powder,
and scattered it upon the mayim, and made the children of Yisrael drink of it.
This act of drinking bitter water as an adulterous woman, was supposed to test
her fidelity as seen in Numbers 5: 24: And he shall cause the woman to drink the bitter
mayim that causes the curse: and the mayim that causes the curse shall enter into her, and
become bitter.
25 Then the kohen shall take the jealousy offering out of the woman's hand, and shall wave the
offering before vuvh, and offer it upon the altar:
26 And the kohen shall take a handful of the offering, as a memorial offering, and burn it upon
the altar, and afterward shall cause the woman to drink the mayim.
27 And when he has made her to drink the mayim, then it shall come to pass, that, if she is
defiled, and has done trespass against her husband, that the mayim that causes the curse shall
enter into her, and becomes bitter, and her belly shall swell, and her thigh shall rot: and the
woman shall be a curse among her people.
28 And if the woman is not defiled, but is clean; then she shall be free, and shall conceive zera.
26 Then Moshe stood in the gate of the camp, and said, Who is on vuvhs side? Let him come to
me. And all the sons of Lewi gathered themselves together to him.
27 And he said to them, This says vuvh Elohim of Yisrael, Put every man his sword by his side,
and go in and out from tent to tent throughout the camp, and slay every man his brother, and
every man his companion, and every man his neighbor.
So we see Yahshua bride taking the test of the jealous husband and is found to
have miserably fail the test, just as Yahshua had suspected. She became naked
in the worship of the calf, drank bitter waters before the priest, and was
wounded, or pierced causing her belly to swell with death and cursing. According
to Yechezkel/Ezekiel 16:30-34, Yisraels adultery was of the worst variety, as her
stupidity didnt even allow her to receive payment, or benefit from her services,
which she rendered for free to any and every false elohim. She had become
scorned, cursed, naked and bitter in the world of nations. Now recall that in the
law of a jealous husband the adulterous woman, who had failed the test, would
have all her sins and resulting curses placed in a book, later to be blotted out
with the waters of cleansing by the priest himself.
Bamidbar/Numbers 5:23 And the kohen shall write these curses in a scroll, and he shall blot them
iii
out with the bitter mayim:
We see that through Yahshuas righteous jealousy that He washed his bride with
the waters that flowed from His side, in addition to His kadosh/holy blood.
Through the prophet Hosea and his ongoing challenges with Gomer his wife who
was a habitual whore, YHWH displayed His future intention to redeem and take
Yisrael back, over and over again, just as He commanded Hosea to do in
Hoshea/Hosea 2:1-4, 3:1.
Yahshua the jealous Husband had to deal with a wife who had been:
Stripped naked
Pierced or stabbed
Made hungry
Received curses written in a book
Laughed at and put to open scorn among the nations Yechezkel/Ezekiel
23:32-32 This says the Master vuvh; You shall drink of your sister's cup deep and large:
you shall be laughed to scorn and had in derision; it contains much mishpat.
Separated from her husband
Dying from the judgment of thirst Hoshea/Hosea 2:3
Lest I strip her naked, and make her as in the day that she was born, and make her as a
wilderness, and set her like a dry land, and kill her with thirst.
Since Scripture teaches that Yahshua literally became the sin of His wife
(Corintyah Bet-Second Corinthians 5: 21), He had to execute a plan that would
reverse all of these literal curses, by temporarily leaving His role as the jealous
Husband, in order to become the willing adulterous bride on the cross. His
identification with her was so complete, that during this redemptive loving act,
He must personally experience all the literal events that befell her in her
adulterous journey.
This is the sacrifice done before YHWH, so that once again the nation of Yisrael
can produce offspring/zera, or spirit filled and Torah committed children for
YHWH in direct fulfillment of Bamidbar/Numbers 5:28. And if the woman is not defiled,
but is clean [or is made clean]; then she shall be free, and shall conceive zera.
Selah!

Theres the pashat, or literal understanding. Two people becoming one.
ii
Mystery? Yes. The pashat/literal understanding is the two persons becoming one. The secret behind the literal
is that in Yahshua the two individual houses become one. That is the mystery behind the uniting of man and
woman. Yahshua and Yisrael become one in the remez, or hint level of understanding. But in the sod, or secret
level as Yahshua marries Yisrael, both houses remarry each other, thereby establishing peace. That is also
known as the mystery of the kingdom.
iii
Yahshua nailed the curse of Yisrael's unfaithfulness to His execution stake, as Yisrael corporately had violated
the Torah of a jealous Husband. In so doing, Yahshua took the book with all Yisrael's violations and canceled the
curses that resulted from Yisrael's unfaithfulness that were recorded in the book by the High Priest. That is
referenced clearly in Colossians 2:14.
