 * List of illustrations

Christ and church

 * Ephesians 5, though is primarily on JC-church.
 * Beluah in Isaiah 60ish
 * Hosea
 * etc.

Manifest of God

 * They are to e.a. some of the primary manifests of Gods nature
 * 1 Cor 11 God>JC>man>woman again, head cover is man is priest layer between woman and world, man is born of woman. Man is glory of God, woman glory of man. I think it's like the covering on woman represents the man. While man is in direct relationship with God, the woman has the man as an intermediary (like Christ). A married woman (or in Arabia also a woman under the protection of her father) goes about with her head covered because there is a layer between her and the world - the man. While at home alone she is in direct relationship with the man this can be removed.

Proliferate, general manifest

 * Man is core theo energy, woman is manifest art proliferation.
 * Man is proactive, woman is responsive/reflexive

Dance

 * "Refiner". Tried by fire purified song. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4ySanQaBi3c&ab_channel=MegamusicMinistry. Not sure why this song in particular triggered thoughts about marriage.
 * I see man dancing in pillar of flame floor. Separately, a woman. The man is intentional, the woman reactive. Marriage is where the woman is responsive to the best and strongest influences, and the man strives to be a strong/strongest influence.

Trees

 * Tree branches and trunk - the trunk is simple and strong, provides for branches, branches are manifest proliferate. Enzer property where branches also supply life of tree. Is JC the root? Man is a tree planted Ps 1.

City and army

 * City is rich, cultured, proliferate, valuable, sedentary, nurture the army, perform the enumerative/proliferate crafting transactions
 * Army, workers, and admins are mobile, intentional, give energy and direction, represent, will sacrifice, aid in construct, are simple
 * Without the army, the city is vulnerable
 * Without the city, the army is meaningless
 * Watchman on the walls
