Romans from a Torah Covenant Perspective – Chapter 8 Part 3

Romans 8:18  For I reckon that the sufferings of the present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory about to be revealed in us; Romans 8:19  for the earnest looking out of the creation doth expect the revelation of the b’nai יהוה, sons of יהוה. The creation is in expectation of revelation and redemption! The reason Yahusha was crowned with thorns and bled by thorns was to secure  Creation’s redemption. Thorn branches first appeared the Garden of Eden. There were three parts to the Garden: The midst The Garden The land. Corresponding to: the Holy of Holies, the Holy place and the Mount of Olives. The 1st, 2nd and 3rd parts of the Garden. The 1st, 2nd and 3rd parts of the Garden.Thorn branches – the Ancient acacia in the bible: Thorn branches – the Ancient acacia in the bible: Thorn branches around the ram with Abraham and Issac branches woven into a basket upon the baker’s head as he hung from a tree Absalom hung from a tree, his hair entangled in the tree, entangled in the branches, encircled like a crown Messianic Jonah with weeds/thistles wrapped around his head All ultimately pointed to Yahusha crowned by thorns.  Why? Land redemption and your redemption! Yeshua bled three times The Garden of  Gethsemane Luke 22:44/3rd part of Eden. The Scourging by the Roman soldiers (John 19:1). The crowning of the head with thorns. So why the shedding of Moshiach’s blood through the crown of thorns? Look at the words “blood,” “ground” and “thorns.” Luke 22:44, And being in agony He made prayer more earnestly: and His sweat became like great drops of blood as He fell down to the ground! John 19:1. and the soldiers plaited a crown of thorns and put it upon His head.” Genesis 3:17-18, 17 And to Ahdahm He said, because you have listened to the voice of your wife, and have eaten of the tree, of which I commanded you, saying, you shall not eat of it: cursed is the ground for your sake; in sorrow shall you eat from it all the days of your life; 18 thorns also and thistles shall it bring out for you; and you shall eat the herb of the field. The ground is being cursed, and immediately the thorns, at that very moment, came forth. Both are a result of sin. Before The Fall of Man there were no thorns. The first witness of the fallen state of man revealed in creation was “thorns and thistles” (Genesis 3:17, 18). YHWH Himself pronounced his curse. In Yahusha wearing of the crown of thorns, He bore the curse, not only for man, but He bore creation’s curse as well. This is why YHWH allowed for the Head of His Son to be crowned. Yahusha purchased, by His blood – creation’s redemption! Isaiah 55:12-13 All break forth before you into singing, and all the trees of the field shall clap their hands. Instead of the thorn shall come up the fir tree, and instead of the brier shall come up the myrtle tree; and it shall be to YHWH for a Name, for an everlasting sign that shall not be cut off. Yahusha’s blood redeems and reverses the curse of sin. He bleeds by the crown of thorns to redeem the earth and creation, and then He bleeds at the tree to redeem man! “The Earth is YHWH’s and the fullness thereof  . . . ” (Psalm 24:1). Romans 8:21“Because the creation itself also shall be delivered from the bondage of corruption into the glorious liberty of the children of Eloah. For we know that the whole creation groaneth and travaileth in pain together until now.” First Peter 2:24 Who His own self carried our sins in His own body on the tree that we, being dead to sins, should live to tzedakah: by whose stripes you were healed. (Stripes from the scourging yes! But also stripes around His brow.)  Because you were as sheep going astray; but now have made teshuvah to the Shepherd and Guardian of your beings. Paul’s understanding of redemption isn’t restricted to humanity but extends to all creation. Leviticus 25:10 redemption causes what?  And ye have hallowed the year, the fiftieth year; and ye have proclaimed liberty in the land to all its inhabitants; a
