This story speaks of who we were created to become: to love the Lord and others. It is about the love of a man called Lappidoth, a Rabbi and Historian; who falls in love with an exceptionally intelligent, strong-will woman whom he marries then God chooses her to lead the Israelites from apostasy into repentance; so his brilliance as a servant-leader through obedience, his humility and love for her assures good success and is the fore-light of the Christ and the Church -a marriage ideal. A Woman in Ministry Leadership is God ordained Her covering is called and chosen by God and how wonderful it can be. So God has shown me a servant-leader in Lappidoth, the head of his wife and she's humbly submitted therein although she does the leading in public ministry. He is her covering as they fulfill the commission of God the Father. It reminds me of another man in the New Testament called Joseph, husband of Mary the mother of Jesus. He was called to be her covering; a chosen perfect husband match; and an honorable man, yet he is somewhat obscure as they provide a family atmosphere and parent 'the King of Kings'. God also reveals a parallel in that the Spirit of Lappidoth is the fore-light of Christ's coming and dying for the Church -His Bride.
