האם ידעת, that Adam lost his son, just like God? Adam experienced the same thing as God.
Adam, the son of God
The son of Seth, the son of Adam, the son of God(לוק 3:38)
Adam was God’s son. Adam was made in the image of God. God was Adam’s Father; his Creator; He had conceived Adam by the power of the Holy Spirit.
And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness:and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creeps upon the earth. So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them (בראשית 1:26-27)
Adam had all the characteristics of God because His Spirit was in him. God’s Spirit had quickened him and made him alive.
כעת, that man was created in the image of God, he was able to fulfill the commission of God, namely, to rule over the earth.
God had entrusted the earth to man and had given him His commandments. Now it was up to man, what man would do with the commandments of God. Because God had given man a free will.
God lost His son Adam through disobedience
The Father-son relationship didn’t last long. Because after a short period, Adam became disobedient to his Father. Adam didn’t keep His commandment and became disobedient to his Father; Adam sinned and his spirit died. When the spirit died, the flesh (soul and body) became king and reigned in man’s life. At the moment that Adam sinned, God lost His son.
The life that was present in him was replaced by death. From that moment Adam sinned, death reigned in man.
Every person that would be born of the seed of Adam, would be born under the authority of the devil, חטא, and death and carry the death in his flesh.
Adam had exchanged his Father (אלוהים), for another father (השטן).
Through his אי-ציות לאלוהים, God lost His son Adam, and Adam lost his Father.
But what happened to God (the loss of His son), also happened in the life of Adam.
Not only did the same thing happen to Adam and Adam experienced, what God felt when He lost His son Adam, but Adam also experienced, what God would have to go through again and give up for him, because of his deed of disobedience; his sin.
Adam lost his son Abel and experienced the same thing as God
Adam experienced the same thing that God had experienced; losing your son to death. Because Adam lost his son Abel due to his righteousness and the unrighteousness of Cain. The righteous Abel was murdered by his unrighteous brother Cain, who disobeyed the word of God. Just like Adam (spirit) was murdered by the serpent.
The devil had received authority over man, by tempting Adam via his wife Eve with his words. Because Adam believed the serpent above God, man became disobedient to God and sinned. By sinning the spirit in Adam.
The devil had also authority in the life of Cain, which became visible when Cain’s offering was not accepted by God. עם זאת, Abel’s offering was accepted by God. Because Abel’s offering was accepted by God, Cain became filled with anger. His anger resulted in killing his brother (קרא גם: Why was Abel’s offering accepted by God and Cain’s offering not?).
What God endured in the Spirit, by Adam’s disobedience to the commandment of God, Adam experienced in the flesh, through the disobedience of Cain to the word of God.
God showed Adam His plan of redemption
Not only did Adam experience the same as what God had experienced when Adam became disobedient to His words, but God also showed Adam His redemption plan for humanity.
Abel was righteous and obedient to God and pleased God. Because of righteousness and obedience to God Abel was killed. Jalousie and anger ruled in Cain and led to the murder of his brother.
Abel walked in righteousness and did good. Abel didn’t do anything wrong. But despite that Abel didn’t do anything wrong, Cain became angry with him and killed Abel.
Jesus the Son of God was righteous and obedient to God, and pleased God, in contrary to Adam, who became disobedient to God.
Jesus walked in holiness and righteousness and did good. But despite His holy and righteous walk, Jesus was killed by man.
Adam lost his righteous son, because of his deed of disobedience to God.
The devil killed Abel, and used Cain as his weapon, just like the devil killed Jesus, and used Jude and the leaders of the House of Israel as his weapon.
Because of one deed of disobedient of His first son Adam, God had to give His other Son Jesus Christ, to reconcile man back to Him through His deed of obedience.
God had to give His Son, so that the spiritual connection between man and God would be restored and God could have a relationship with man again, as God intended from the beginning of creation.
God had to give His Son Jesus Christ, to conquer sin and death and to take the authority back from the devil and give it back to man.
Jesus came in the flesh but was born of the Holy Seed instead of the seed of man. Therefore evil (חטא ומוות) was not present in the Seed and His flesh. Jesus lived in the flesh, but He walked after the Spirit (just like Adam did before he sinned). Jesus was obedient to His Father. He pleased Him, by doing His will and keeping מצוותיו.
Jesus the Son of God was obedient to His Father
Jesus was obedient to God, but He had to die, because of the disobedience of Adam. At the cross, Jesus carried all the sins and iniquities of man. He entered hell, conquered death, and rose as Victor from the dead with the keys of hell and death.
By His blood, Jesus restored (נרפא) the fallen state and position of man and the relationship between man and God.
Jesus took the keys of authority legally back from the devil. So that every man, who would believe in Him and be born again and seated in Him, would have dominion over the devil, מוות, the earth, וכל המארחים.
The relationship between God and man was restored. Through the process of regeneration, the spirit in man was made alive again.
A new creation was created, born of the seed of the Holy Spirit.
And so Jesus restored the disobedience of Adam through His obedience and sacrifice.
Adam lost his son because of his deed, just like God. But God not only lost His son Adam to death, but He also had to lose, temporarily, His second Son to death.
This all happened because of one deed of disobedience…
