BELIEVE it or not, the present subject is a spinoff of my other research paper titled The Earth Is a Womb. I had begun talking about our two births, the second of which involves being born again, and how water can be applied to the both of them. Well, it got me interested in pursuing the subject further. Don’t you just love a good spinoff? I do. This is after all the Biblical Universe we’re dealing with. At any given moment, you never really know who or what subject might crop up. Take Pa’al for example.

³ Know ye not, that so many of us as were baptized into Yahusha Ha’Mashiach were baptized into his death?

This particular passage sprung up as part of my Romans commentary which, as of this present writing, I am sad to say has not been completed yet. The point of that commentary was to show that Pa’al was not straying from Torah observance. And anyways, it was in chapter 6 where I finally realized what Pa’al was getting at when putting forward his position that we are dead to sin. He was directing his reader to the spiritual reality behind the mikveh.

What is the mikveh exactly and where does one acquire one? I’m glad you asked. But you’ll have to read the full report to learn more about it. Just so we’re clear, this is another one of my older articles which I’ve cleaned up considerably, adding new information where needs be. I also added it to the dizzying list of PDF articles on my archives page. Be sure to give that a try if you’re daring enough.
