Primary metaphor
The zayin travels up the left side of the Square Text Template representing a return to God. The word of God returns, Christ is the Word of God who returns, and the bride is the increase that the Word produces which returns to God.
- Ge 1:11 And God said, Let the earth bring forth grass, the herb yielding [sowing] seed, [and] the fruit tree yielding fruit after his kind, whose seed [is] in itself, upon the earth: and it was so.
First occurrence 'sowing' mezario מזריע
The herb was sowing seed. Both words sowing and seed share the same root zara זרע. By the letters it says "That which returned ז from the revelation ר to the flesh ע". The herb sows its seed. This is backwards from what we normally think, that the herb yields it's seed. But Christ is the great herb [1]
