During the creation process the Lord said it was good or very good which means to me God was pleased with what He made! Perfect and Holy as He designed everything. Now another way of stating this is creation was without sin when he spoke. So, what in the Bible represents no sin for 7 days? I found that the feast of Unleavened Bread represents this seven day time of creation. A spring time event! Leven represents sin.

Now on the sixth day Man was created and when he sinned Adam and Eve covered themselves with leaves for their sin and shame. Notice that is was not a covering for sin in the lord's eyes. The Lord took animal skins which represents the beginning of a blood sacrifice till the Lord made the final blood sacrifice on Calvary 4000 years later on Passover. The fruit that they ate had to be the grape if this is part of the Passover story.

So what I am suggesting is this 6th day of creation represented the original Passover and the reason why Yeshua was crucified on the 6th day of the week and on the revolution of the year.. Now this is only the beginning of the understnding I have but want your input.

I understand why you say this (sort of) but could it not have been a fig? .:unsure:

Not to labour over it or anything, but Adam and Eve used fig leaves to cover themselves,
and the fig tree was cursed by Jesus because it was not producing the desired fruit, due
to the human system being one of works which do not save...


On the other hand, God could have simply drawn a line in the sand and said, "Do not cross."

Symbolic fruit, or not, they sinned. Either way, A&E ate the fruit of their disobedience.

Let's just not call it an apple .:giggle:

Notice it was forbidden fruit and not forbidden vegetables. No one can be tempted by broccoli.

I speculated somewhat because I was using Passover as a guide as the grape/wine connection. I am one who always looks for the story in the story.

If I was to continue this story I would go to Genesis 5 and ask you about the first 10 generations and why there was no months or days given concerning their births or deaths? Do you think God just rounded things off?

Yes, I understood that .:D

I used to put grapes in my panels for the same reason... grapes to
wine, wine symbolizing the shed righteous blood of Christ

“And Melchizedek king of Salem brought forth bread and wine: and he was the priest of the most high God.

And he blessed him, and said, Blessed be Abram of the most high God, possessor of heaven and earth: and blessed be the most high God, which hath delivered thine enemies into thy hand. And he gave him tithes of all.”
‭‭Genesis‬ ‭14:18-20‬ ‭KJV‬‬

“And as they did eat, Jesus took bread, and blessed, and brake it, and gave to them, and said, Take, eat: this is my body.

And he took the cup, and when he had given thanks, he gave it to them: and they all drank of it. And he said unto them, This is my blood of the new testament, which is shed for many.”
‭‭Mark‬ ‭14:22-24‬ ‭KJV‬‬


“So also Christ glorified not himself to be made an high priest;

but he that said unto him, Thou art my Son, To day have I begotten thee.

As he saith also in another place, Thou art a priest for ever After the order of Melchisedec.

Who in the days of his flesh, when he had offered up prayers and supplications with strong crying and tears unto him that was able to save him from death, and was heard in that he feared; though he were a Son, yet learned he obedience by the things which he suffered; and being made perfect, he became the author of eternal salvation unto all them that obey him; called of God an high priest after the order of Melchisedec.

Of whom we have many things to say, and hard to be uttered,….
‭‭Hebrews‬ ‭5:5-11‬ ‭KJV‬‬

“Seeing then that we have a great high priest, that is passed into the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast our profession.”
‭‭Hebrews‬ ‭4:14‬ ‭KJV‬‬

“but this man, because he continueth ever, hath an unchangeable priesthood.

Wherefore he is able also to save them to the uttermost that come unto God by him, seeing he ever liveth to make intercession for them.

For such an high priest became us, who is holy, harmless, undefiled, separate from sinners, and made higher than the heavens; who needeth not daily, as those high priests, to offer up sacrifice, first for his own sins, and then for the people's: for this he did once, when he offered up himself. ( bread and wine body and blood )

For the law maketh men high priests which have infirmity; but the word of the oath, which was since the law, maketh the Son, who is consecrated for evermore.”
‭‭Hebrews‬ ‭7:24-28‬ ‭

Then how about those animal skins?
Yes, the first shedding of blood for the covering of sin, foreshadowing Christ's ultimate sacrifice .:D

Animal skins would not look good in a panel .:unsure::giggle:. Well, I am thinking bloody animal skins. Perhaps a nice bear rug?

Not to mention the fact that broccoli does not grow on trees .:unsure:;):giggle:
Really? I always thought broccoli was clipped off bonsai trees. I thought bonsai was Japanese for broccoli.

I was just reading up on this (not bonsai trees). Most vegetables do not grow on trees, but
technically, any edible part of a tree that does not have seeds is (or could be) classified
as a vegetable. Still, broccoli does not grow on trees LOL.

If this truly foreshadows Christ's ultimate sacrifice I think there is a high probabilty those animal skins were lamb!

Luv your humor

Thank you, and that is a good point about the lamb! Or maybe a ram...

Well,...the Lord said it was very good, but He didn't say it was perfect so, "it" wasn't finished yet.
However, He declared, "It is finished!" on the cross.

That's a great connection between the bread and the wine I've always just read over without giving it any thought.
