Both men and women can be stumbling blocks outside of Yahuwah’s intended roles.
As mothers and fathers, members of the Ekklesia want to bear children who are children of Yahuwah. This is Yahuwah’s will for marriage. This is why Yahushua warned so strongly about offending the little ones or putting a stumbling block in their path.
Matthew 18:6 But whoso shall offend one of these little ones which believe in me, it were better for him that [a] a millstone were hanged about his neck, [b] and that he were drowned in the depth of the sea.
Both men and women are capable of being a stumbling block to this goal being reached. Thus, it is written:
Malachi 2:13- And this is the second thing you do: You cover the altar of Yahuwah with tears, with weeping and crying; [a] So He does not regard the offering anymore, [b] Nor receive it with goodwill from your hands. 14 – Yet you say, “For what reason?” Because Yahuwah has been witness Between you and the wife of your youth, With whom you have dealt treacherously; Yet she is your companion And your wife by covenant. 15 – But did He not make them one, Having a remnant of the Spirit? And why one? He seeks godly offspring (Hebrew: “Seed of Elohim”). Therefore take heed to your spirit, And let none deal treacherously with the wife of his youth. 16 – “For Yahuwah Elohim of Israel says That He hates divorce, For it covers one’s garment with violence,” Says Yahuwah of hosts. “Therefore take heed to your spirit, That you do not deal treacherously.”
A man dealing treacherously with this wife by divorcing her is a hindrance to Yahuwah’s desire of having a “Seed of Elohim” as these verses declare. Today’s divorce rate accompanied with hurting and weeping children is indeed evidence of that ‘treachery’. In scripture, a man’s role is compared to that of Messiah and a woman’s role is compared to the role of the assembly, His bride.
Ephesians 5:25- Husbands, love your wives, just as Messiah also loved the church and gave Himself for her,
Ephesians 5:22- Wives, submit to your own husbands, as to Yahuwah.
Together, they are to bear children for the purposes of having a ‘seed of Elohim’ that will build the kingdom of Yahuwah and destroy the works of the devil. When either one fails to fulfill the role they were created to be in, it is a hindrance to their children being the ‘seed of Elohim’ that Yahuwah desires.
