| Adams Mother | |

| No doubt all on this forum know the answer to my question. I do | |
| not see it as important , yet it does not leave me, therefore it | |
| could be important to me once I know the answer. | |
| The scripture- And Adam said, This is now bone of my bones, and | |
| flesh of my flesh: she shall be called Woman, because she was | |
| taken out of Man. | |
| 24 Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and | |
| shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh. | |
| By which scripture I understand it was advisable for Adam to | |
| leave his father and mother and become one with his wife. As | |
| Adam had no father and mother in the biological sense he was | |
| probable speaking of the future children he would sire. | |
| Yet it appears to me that if I look at the anecdotal evidence | |
| in the bible men did not cleave and leave but took brides and | |
| stayed within a growing family. Abraham , Issac and Jacob | |
| dwelling together in tents. Living a nomadic life together. The | |
| children of Israel in the wilderness, so called one oversized | |
| happy family. | |
| Getting to my question, what did the injunction of Adam really | |
| mean because I don�t see those coming behind him following his | |
| admonishment.?? | |

| haha! What an eye catcher of a title ! | |
| As I muse on it�it seems that it must mean the �one flesh� | |
| thing�.the cutting of the parental umbilical cord�.no longer the | |
| first allegiance being ma and pa, but now being joined to a | |
| wife. | |
| Where did �wife� come in..I wonder if that was the original | |
| word . We know there was no �marriage� except the first �coming | |
| together �. | |
| I wonder what wife means in the original text. | |
| Therefore if it is a spiritual or emotional umbilical cord , | |
| then the distancing is not of humping off up the road with a | |
| wife to the next town , but of the first important closest union | |
| and relationship , is now with �husband and wife� �yet still | |
| honouring the dad, as the leader of the tribe. �Every man in | |
| his own order �. | |
| As said , in the eastern cultures the man did not leave his | |
| home (ma and pa) but he took the wife into the house ( mansion | |
| or tent) just as God /Christ , will take His bride into His | |
| mansion/tent / temple , and become fully one with her. | |
| Just my two cents �looking forward to reading other views �..H | |
