CLEAVING: Hebrew - Dabaq
Means:
a) To cling, glue to, adhere, stick (requires one time effort and remain passive)
b) To catch by pursuit, follow after, overtake
Cleaving is to be a constant attitude and activity of passion.
HUSBAND: PURSUE
WIFE : RESPOND
To cleave together involves:
a) Doing things together
b) Trust for each other and transparency
c) Loving and understanding one another
d) Taking walks together
e) Keeping communication lines open always
f) Eating, taking baths together
g) Praying together
h) Sharing and uniting goals and ambitions.
I believe that one of the critical causes of divorce in our marriages today is the lack of cleavage in many marriages. Many couples are nothing but co-tenants or at best cohabitants.
