The symbolism of the numbers in the Bible (Part 2)
The number 2 or the repetition twice, symbolizes the certainty of a prophetic declaration, the assured fulfillment of a future event: “And the fact that the dream was repeated to Pharʹaoh twice means that the thing is firmly established on the part of the true God, and the true God is speeding to do it” (Genesis 41:32).
The number 2, connected with the number 1, symbolizes the plural in general: “where she is to be fed for a time and times and half a time” (Revelation 12:14 (a (1) time, times = 2 times, and half a time, that are 3 times and a half (compare with Daniel 12:7 (a parallel prophecy)).
The number 2, connected with the number 3, symbolizes the insistence in action: “Indeed, God does all these things Twice, three times, for a man” (Job 33:29).

A good relationship with Jehovah God requires respect for the sacred value of human life. God condemns not only murder but also the hatred that leads to murder. God condemns homicide (even involuntary) by negligence. God condemns voluntary abortion. The Bible does not forbid birth control by contraception, decided by the couple (it must not be abortive). What is the difference between active euthanasia and palliative care? Does God forgive past murderous behavior, carried out in ignorance of his will?
A good relationship with Jehovah God requires respect for the sacred value of blood. Blood represents the life given by God. The blood flowing through our arteries and veins belongs to God as a symbol of the life He has given us. Animal blood belongs to God and should not be consumed with meat. Whole or partial blood (red and white blood cells, platelets and plasma) cannot be used as medical treatment like blood transfusion. In some cases it will be up to the Christian to decide for himself whether or not to accept treatment, after the informed advice of his doctor or specialist.
