CABALA (KABBALAH) OF MARRIAGE

Just 51 percent of Americans over the age of 18 are married, according to the Pew Research Center; that’s a six percent drop from 2000.

The Torah teaches, Marriage changes the sexual union; prior to marriage, the sex between couples, no matter the agreement or commitment, is temporal – there is no penalty in the union. Once married, adultery becomes a possibility, intensifying the sexual experience.

The social and legal penalty incurred by adultery in the Torah is severe, resulting in a meaningful commitment beyond what love inspires; modern day marriage has only a monetary and emotional expense for divorce – there is no actual punishment for adultery.

Many professions require marriage; and some marriages are of convenience – only those that have the sting of adultery essentially connected to the marriage get the sexual reward that comes from complete devotion. There is little reason in modern day society to marry.

The Cabala explains, The Jewish People are married to the Creator who gave as a wedding present the Ten Commandments beginning with, Do not serve other gods – anything other than the Creator of Heaven and Earth is other gods. Exile is divorce before reconciliation.

Shavout

On the sixth day of Sivan in the Hebrew calendar is celebrated for 3,321 years the event of God giving the Torah to the Jewish People on the mountain named Sinai.

In the Midrash-Book of Metaphor says before creation God asked of the Jewish Soul to go down into creation and do the 613 Commandments that are housed in the first Five Books of the Torah; at the receiving of the Torah which is considered to be a marriage ceremony between God and the Jewish People, as explained in the Cabala–the Jewish Peopled promised to do the Commandments and God promised to bring Moshiach by the year 6000, the expiration of the Hebrew calendar in a few centuries.

Shavuot is celebrated by staying up all night to study the Torah. Many people read what is known as Tikun Shavout/Fixing Shavout because the people originally went to sleep so they could received the Torah with the purity of the soul, but Moshe had to go around and awake everyone because the Torah came more for the body than the soul.

The 613 Commandments of the Jewish People combined with the Seven Commandments given to the rest of the world equal 620–Keter/Crown. When we all do our part then God is crowned.

Gay Marriage

The California Supreme Court will hand down a ruling on Proposition 8 banning same-sex marriage today. The ruling decides whether voters had the right to amend the state Constitution to solidify the definition of marriage as the union of a man and a woman.

The Torah is very specific about the question of marriage and sexual orientation; marriage is a contract between a man and a woman, but these laws in the Torah are meant only for the Jewish People whose men are commanded not to be sexual with another man–woman have no problem or prohibition against being with another woman.

One of the seven commandments given to the world by Noah 4000 years ago was to make laws concerning sexuality; meaning there are no specific laws and each community has the right enact their own boundaries.

The 52 percent who voted to restrain the definition of marriage to a man and a woman is indicative of twice YHVH/26 and also the gematria of Behama/Animal. Our planet is called in the Zohar-Book of Secret Tavel, a term used to indicated the commingling of animal and human because it is on this planet where the animal of the earth and the human of the soul combine.

Much of life depends upon how we dance the amoral animal with the human soul.

Marital Instability

The California Supreme Court appeared ready Thursday to uphold the voters' decision to overrule the court and restore the state's ban on same-sex marriage.

The fight over marriage proves that both sides have lost their way. Marriage has become a dogmatic institution where one gets rewarded through tax breaks and other initiatives for having followed the rules. One of the Seven Commandments given to the people of the earth from the time of Noah and the Flood is to make laws concerning sexuality by which a society can maintain ethical-moral stability, but to include the restriction of marriage goes too far.

The Jewish People who were chosen to perform the 613 Commandments do not require marriage and there is no stigma attached to the child coming out of wedlock. The Cabala is threaded throughout with all sorts of sexual inferences and metaphors speaks nowhere about the necessity of marriage.

In Jewish Law only the man is commanded to marry and have children, the woman is free and only marries for love.
