Ossifrage

Ossifrage

Those who sow division in the church are not of the Spirit and should be avoided.

If Adam saw a ossifrage eating a locust (we can only guess); holding it down and tearing it apart, he may have given the bird this name. 'Locust' means 'the light in her'. The behavior would be described as tearing the pure one.

ossifrage perec פרס - divide , pure . It is a symbol of tearing apart the pure.

locust ‘arbeh ארבה - light אר in her בה.

Ro 16:17 ¶ Now I beseech you, brethren, mark them which cause divisions and offences contrary to the doctrine which ye have learned; and avoid them.

1Co 3:3 For ye are yet carnal: for whereas [there is] among you envying, and strife, and divisions, are ye not carnal, and walk as men?
