Torah Science Summary (2 pg) Genesis 1 Creation Days Jacob's Stick, Tefillin (2 pg) Creation and Evolution Children's Science

This is an entry in a series of Torah science lessons which tend to show how a religious symbol can be understood better by looking at the microscopic and detail findings of modern science.
So, although they are not like the stunning proofs of Torah science in physics and chemistry, they are candidates for Torah science.

The Religious Laws
Many Bible symbols involve pregnancy and childbirth. In this article we will look at the issues to try to understand.

- Woman In Labor. At the end of time and at the crucifixion the church is seen as a woman struggling to give birth as evil tries to devour her new born Promised child (Revelation 12: 1-4).
- Born Again. Besides the image of "dying to sin", the Bible instructs us to be "born again" and to become like little children.
  Born Twice. Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God. Nicodemus saith unto him, How can a man be born when he is old? Can he enter the second time into his mother's womb, and be born? Jesus answered, verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God. (John 3: 3-5)
- The 12 Sons Of Israel. They are seen as the model of the children of God.

The Science Pattern Design And Laws
Most women are not conscious of the day they ovulate and many due dates are simply an estimate. People were certain that pregnancy was connected to semen and the menstrual period and that it took about nine months. But it was not until recently that we concluded that a full term pregnancy took 38-40 weeks and an overdue birth ends at 42 weeks. Amniotic fluid is replaced every three to four hours. Yet the Bible has these two time periods written into the sanctuary, the laws and the covenants. In addition, salvation is described as a new birth of the "fruit of the womb" where the righteous emerge at 40 periods of time and the wicked at 42. When the time is defined as months or years it is "between three and four years" or 40 and 42 months. In reality what is measured is the period in which the endometrium grows. The events also mimic the name and blessings of the children of Israel in their birth order. You must understand the prophecy of the twelve tribes to understand the associations that are made.

Unexpectedly, this information points out that God begins counting your life even before fertilization occurs.

The Messianic Prophecy
Although we show this as the birth of Christ from the world, the same steps apply to the development of the perfect church for 2000 years until the birth at the end of time.
The order of development of the baby mimics the events of the Plan of Salvation in the order of the birth of the sons of Jacob. If we focus on the major accomplishments at the beginning and the end we can see a pattern.

- The Birth Of The Special Son. From the beginning evil tried to devour the Promised One even before He was born.
  Birth Of The Promised Seed. And there appeared a great wonder in heaven; a woman clothed with the sun, and the moon under her feet, and upon her head a crown of twelve stars: And she being with child cried, travailing in birth, and pained to be delivered. And there appeared another wonder in heaven; and behold a great red dragon, having seven heads and ten horns, and seven crowns upon his heads. And his tail drew the third part of the stars of heaven, and did cast them to the earth: and the dragon stood before the woman which was ready to be delivered, for to devour her child as soon as it was born. (Revelation 12: 1-4)
- Two Ovaries. One At A Time. The church is symbolized as a female. It is also split between two women who must alternate turns to be the dominant. The church is a combination of the Jews and Gentiles. The Jews gave birth to the important Son that they were called to produce. Now the Christian church must produce its children. God says that He must ignore the Jews in order to save the Gentiles. We do not know why, unless we use biology to understand this law. In nature the ovaries take turns ovulating.
  God has only one wife. There is only one woman with one womb but there are two ovaries.
- Circulatory System. Christ gave blood in the garden of Gethsemane as He poured out His heart in prayer.
- Organs Mature. Organs and their functions begin. On the cross we can see breathing movements and we can see peristalsis begin to work as He is shuttled from one location to another.
- Respiratory System. He gave up the Spirit or the breath of life.
- Fat. After organ maturity the baby spends its final weeks doubling in size because of fat. The sacrificial system says that blood and fat are extremely important and are the two products that are always given totally to God.
  You have to understand the lesson on the twelve tribes to really appreciate the role of fat in the darkness, death and resurrection phase. Fat is a sign that life will be restored because death and imprisonment in the darkness of the womb or the tomb will be broken.
- Birth. The birth is followed by the classic signs of the Holy Spirit, air and water.
  - Water Breaks. Delivery follows the parting of the waters.
  - Breathes Air. A new life begins with the breath of life.
- Placenta (Afterbirth). Before birth the placenta provides the services of the Holy Spirit. It is this organ that breaks down after 40 weeks, symbolizing that those who are born after 40 weeks (in the second resurrection) will not have access to the breath of life. They are merely born to die immediately.
- Miscarriage. The processes on the west are aborted. It is judged and discarded as deficient and expelled.
- The 12 Sons Of Israel. Born in sin, they emerge as the righteous nation of priests for the entire universe. The 12 tribes of the nation of Israel, the bride, gave birth to the Seed promised to Eve who would put enmity between us and Satan. This Seed, Jesus Christ, gave birth to 12 sons which will destroy the seed of Satan.
  Enmity With Sin. And I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed; it shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel. (Genesis 3: 15)
  The Bride. And I John saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down from God out of heaven, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband.
  The Children Of The Bride. And had a wall great and high, and had twelve gates, and at the gates twelve angels, and names written thereon, which are the names of the twelve tribes of the children of Israel:
  The Children Of The Groom. And the wall of the city had twelve foundations, and in them the names of the twelve apostles of the Lamb. (Revelation 22: 2, 12, 14)

God is The Creator Of The Universes. Thus says the Lord, your Redeemer, and the one who formed you from the womb, "I, the Lord, am the maker of all things, stretching out the heavens by Myself and spreading out the earth all alone. Causing the omens of boasters to fail, making fools out of diviners, causing wise men to draw back and turning their knowledge into foolishness. Confirming the word of His servant and performing the purpose of His messengers." (Isaiah 44: 24-26) | Time: 30 Minutes Print: 3 pages
