Re: Christian Mysticism & Divine Feminine

I do know that the Hebrew "El Shaddai" is said to translate "the breasted one". Many rabbinical writers have stated that this is because God is all sufficient for His children as a mother is her infant.

The provisional side of God may be revealed in woman (Eve) in a greater way than in Adam. Yet God's Lordship is clearly revealed in Adam.

God is neither male nor female... God is an eternal Spirit. The only "gender" that God can be said to have is perhaps in the man Jesus Christ.
