Saw in my sleep three huge elelphants coming down a dusty trail slinging dust with their trunks and stirring it mightily with their feet. I was like an ant in the path as they approached and it seemed hit or miss if I was to survive 12 thundering elephant feet pounding towards me at a full tilt run. I recently saw three elephants in a deep sea environment. This is more down to earth, shall we say....
Hey ya Maz :
The elephant is always the symbolic representation of your covenants/contracts/vows/foundation
principles.
So, these characteristics are coming down a dusty trail . . . slinging dust . . .
The letter of the law kills, the spirit maketh us alive.
The elephant represents the letter of the law, the ant ( read below ) represents the spirit.
http://www.scienceblog.com/cms/bible-truths-12700.htmlDo you know that, according to the Bible, the ants have a superior intelligence, which is almost second to man’s? Proverbs 30:24-28 says--
“There are four things which are little upon the earth but they are exceeding wise: The ants are a people not strong, yet they prepare their meat in the summer; The conies are but a feeble folk, yet make they their houses in the rocks; The locusts have no king, yet go they forth all of them by bands; The spider taketh hold with her hands, and is in kings’ palaces.”
While Proverbs 6:6-8 says--
“Go to the ant, thou sluggard, consider her ways, and be wise; Which having no guide, overseer, or ruler, Provideth her meat in the summer, and gathereth her food in the harvest.”
