Enter

  
"A Mother and Child Entering a Cottage" by Helen Allingham

All changes of place in the Bible represent changes in spiritual state. “Entering” – usually used as entering someone’s house or “going in unto” someone – particularly means adopting a spiritual state that is compatible with someone else in order to communicate with them or be conjoined with them. This is easily seen in the fact that a man “going in unto” a woman is sort of a Biblical euphemism for a physical relationship. In a broader sense, all the spiritual changes we go through in our lives involve “entering” and “leaving,” so when the Bible uses the phrasing “going in and coming out,” it symbolizes someone’s entire spiritual life.

To enter, as in Genesis 7:1, signifies to be prepared.

Cherub

  
Here's a cherub if there ever was one.

A Cherub's first definition in the dictionary is , “A winged heavenly creature.” Cherubim is the plural of cherub. In the Word, the words cherub or cherubim are used to indicate a guard - the Lord’s providence guarding against profanation, which is the mixing of truth with evil, or good with falsity.
