What is Family? Part TWO


Listen Later

There are four Hebrew “family” words that I believe are especially important in understanding God’s concept of family and His Family Plan.  As we consider each of these words you will find:

  • They are relational. They are not religious or legalistic. 
  • They are covenantal. They reflect bloodline relationship.. 
  • They flow in a God-ordained sequence of development that progresses or advances from generation to generation, from glory to glory.
  • They reveal the foundational plan and structure God intended for every human being relationally from before the foundation of the earth.

The First of these words is Bayith or Bet. We talked about Bet in a previous podcast . “Bayith  or bet” is the foundational family word in Scripture. It is Hebrew for house or household. Bet also has the numerical value of two.

Bet was designed and destined to form the foundation for advancement to a next level covenant alignment. We have also previously discussed this second Hebrew word and a second level of relational alignment... “mishpaha.” Mishpaha may be translated as family, clan or kindred.

Today, we want to introduce two additional Hebrew family words that are important to understanding God’s Family Plan for Establishing Generational Blessing.
