*which he freely bestowed on us in the Beloved:*

h*e*s e-chaRIt*o*-sen [5487] h*e*MAS en t*o* *e*-ga-p*e*MEn*o*:


 *NOTE**: **Adoption* (huio-theSIa) appears but 5 times in the Greek NT. It
is a combination of 2 words – “huiOS” (381x), a son; and TIth*e*mi (192 x)
– to place, put aside, make. Adoption then is the placing or establishing
of a SON.


 Bible Adoption is NOT the same as our Western understanding of adoption.
In Bible times a Jewish father would normally place his eldest son under
his servants to learn all aspects of his business. When they later came to
him and said, “Sir – your son has passed all tests, and is now read for
‘Adoption.’ You can have a special coming out party for him, and then place
him beside yourself in your company, which will then be ‘Father and Son.’
We will then take our place under his direction, just as we have been under
yours.


 THIS is what our Heavenly Father wants to do with us. We are His sons and
daughters through the New Birth! But God wants us to receive “Adoption”
unto “Sonship.” His servants are the apostles, prophets, evangelists,
shepherds and teachers of Ephesians 4:11-12. We are to accept our place
under them. They then ADJUST (ka-tar-TIz*o*) us. They give us a spiritual
chiropractic treatment to adjust us as the 33 vertebrae of the human body
needing adjustment to protect the spinal cord.


 Adjustment unto ADOPTION and SONSHIP is the will of God for us as outlined
in the above 5 references! It is the FIRST of the 8 blessings for Israel,
that according to the MYSTERY of the Gospel taught by Paul, we as Gentiles
share with Israel in the “One New Man.”


 The other 7 blessings in Romans 9:4-5 are equally important for us from
God’s point of view.

The above 5 quotations of this word, are taken from the coming *“OUTLINED
INTERLINEAR NEW TESTAMENT” *by James A. Watt, based on the Bible Numeric
Greek and English texts prepared by Ivan Panin. The Outlining is also based
on the discovery of Ivan Panin, and appears through the full New Testament
text. Watch our Website for when this is published, plus an E-Book text for
those more interested in this area. This text enables one to “meditate” on
the Word more like George Muller and George Whitefield, who excelled in
this area. But the God who is no respecter of persons can enable each of us
to do also!     Jim Watt
