Covenant Painting

Courtship of the Eagle involves the two of them flying up high where they grasp talons and then glide ack to the ground. This is called the Cartwheel. They would then break apart at the last minute before hitting the ground. It is said that this Cartwheel flight help to bond the pair for life. The theory is if the eagles do this and they let go too soon,they might be signaling to their potential mate that they are not as bold or strong as maybe need to be to raise young successfully. The other extreme is that if they don't pull out of that maneuver in time, they can severely injured or kill themselves. They are establish a bond between them. Such a tight bond where not even death scare them away. They are literally trusting each other with their lives. This is not only a picture of a marriage but also the bond of Christ with his bride. (Covenant) Gen 2:24 “Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh.” In Hebrew the word “cleve” means ‘dâbaq’. Meaning to cling, stick, stay close, cleave, to be joint to, catch. It is a strong expression that has the literal sense of two being held together by force, as when one person captures another. It has a figurative sense of being “glued to” – much like these two eagles with their locked talons. This is thus a symbol of how we should be stuck, glued to our marriage partner - in true covenant – in sickness and in health, through the good and bad times. True love does not run away when the hardship of life makes its appearance.
