In Hebrew, the Number “2” is the word “Bayith.” It is also the second letter of the Hebrew alphabet. Bayith is transliterated into English as “Bet” (like fish bait) but spelled B-E-T. According to Hebrew4Christians.com, Bet is the first letter of the Torah…Hebrew Scriptures. 

Bet is also the Hebrew word for “house” or “household.”  In Psalms 68:6, we read that “God sets the solitary in families.” The word translated families there is the word “Bet.” A more proper translation would be, “God sets the solitary in “Households.”

The idea of household or the power of two is very important to God. In Genesis 1:31, all of creation was ultimately pronounced as “very good.”  But, did you realize that there was a “not good” found in creation that God corrected before this pronouncement?

Genesis 2:18 Amplified Bible (AMP) - Now the Lord God said, “It is not good (beneficial) for the man to be alone; I will make him a helper [one who balances him—a counterpart who is]suitable and complementary for him.”

So, God made Eve…He created them male and female… Creation was not good or complete without Bet. 

In Genesis 1:28, God commissioned, authorized an blessed the first human bet with the ability to…Increase, Multiply and Exercise stewardship dominion over God’s creation.

There is power and authority in “Two,” Bet, or a household.
