The Word was God sets the Law. The Word was with God sets appropriate emblems, signs so man is created 'after our image ' and after our likeness' can be broken up into two components: flesh and Spirit. Thus first Four days the Covenant is about heaven and the following Three days delineate the body comprising all live forms, blessed because they are all given relevance about the man who is after our likeness. This man thus blessed is Jesus Christ. For the above reason the last Adam makes it clear that Adam was a double for the Son who shall be sent to the world in the fulness of time, So Seven we shall is a whole number against which all other laws are pendent. The devil sins from the beginning for which the Law shall judge him accordingly. It is thus 10 serves as a number for law of sin and death.
Every thing thus named in the kingdom of God holds together in Jesus Christ and it is thus Noah serves as a double for Jesus Christ. As the garden of Eden was a microcosm of the kingdom is the ark of Noah. God willed and Noah built it accordingly. " And Noah did according unto all that the Lord commanded him."(Gen.7.5) Noah sends a raven and a dove. The dove returns , 'But the dove found no rest for the sole of her foot, and she returned unto him into the ark,' We read,"And he stayed yet other seven days;." He returns 'in the evening; and, lo, in her mouth was an olive leaf pluckt off."He remains with Noah in the Ark yet for another seven days ." And he stayed yet other seven days; and sent forth the dove; which returned not again unto him any more." The last verse evokes the risen Christ sending the Holy Spirit to the world according to the word of God. These series of sevens has a parallel in the seventy weeks mentioned in Daniel ch.9 Seven in multiples of 10 require more space so we shall consider in another post.
