Numerical Expositions: Genesis 2:25

And they were both naked, the man and his wife, and were not ashamed.

-- Gen. 2:25 (KJV)

The reason that neither of them were not ashamed was due to sin not being in the picture at that time.  That will change in Chapter 3 when mankind fell.  Shame is a byproduct of guilt.  If you choose not to hold on to the mistakes that you made in the past, then shame will leave your life.

Numerical Analysis:  The numerical pattern for this verse is 2,7,9,5.  (2) Walk in God's kingdom or lack protection.  (7) To be complete, find a suitable spouse.  (9) To overturn evil, do not be ashamed.  (5) To stay in God's presence, do not be ashamed.
