"The Jewel in the Setting," The New Torah Undertaking.
Tumblr media
April 23, 2023. The Rabbinate has issued a call to religious duty for all Jews to return to the Torah and study it anew. The Torah has recently been revealed to be a type of religious document called a tantra, or "technique" instead of an Old Testament as it is currently called.
The Books in the Torah and broader collection of Judaic religious writing called Tanakh did not become the Old Testament until 1453 when the Gutenbergs printed the first Bible. Before this, the Tanakh and the Gospels were not bound together, mass produced and sold to the general population.
Distinctions between the Torah and the Old Testament remain blurry, and the Torah Tantras remain virtually unknown yet they are there. It is probable the Torah Tantra method was lost during the holocaust.
Contrary to popular belief, the Torah is replete with rites and sacraments for the forgiveness of sins of all sorts and sizes and represents a complete religious system that includes rites for the consecration of man across all of his stages of life and mishaps.
The Torah consists of 54 Portions called Parshiot. They are Easily followed and practiced in tantra format. Each Parsha has a rubric that explains the contents and after which follow installments that reveal, in stepwise format, how mankind is to combine his historical experiences with his intuition in order to considerably improve his future prospects.
The Rabbinate has asked we perform the latest analysis in a year or less. The effort called civilization is lifelong, the tradition is never ending.
I am recasting my initial draft of the Torah Tantra in order to create a document everyone can read and take more seriously, one that is a bit more thorough in its research and definitions or crowded by other material.
A man who combines the Torah, tradition, and intellect in this manner is called an Israelite or a Jew. An Israelite overcomes all the barriers between mankind's ordinary nature in order to be the very best.
The word Jew, AKA Yehudi, Sons of Yah is not used properly until the Book of Joshua, where it is defined as the "Sons of Lightning" a double entendre for a Jew's demonstrable skill at virility and intellectual acuity.
The idea of a Jewel in a Setting is another term used for the Israelite who has seamlessly incorporated the source of the lightning, the 12 Noble Skills giving God and himself a new lease on life.
All of this is to manifest in greater proportions as the man and mankind age, God says, and must result in a Global Human Metropolis where stadia of enlightened individuals perpetuate what is foundational and innovative about civilization.
This process should never start over where it began. Each time we go back and read Berehsit, we must be willing to imbue the world with something far better than the time we last read the Torah. 
Further, we must not do this alone. Mankind is ebbing because it does not give his full attention of the Jew, who does not yet have a tangible understanding of the Torah. 
I have named it the Jewel in the Setting because that is what the Torah says Jew and the Writing are to one another. Without his bezel the Jew and his destiny are separate. Together, perhaps, the world has an unforeseen chance to survive. 
For the Jew himself, constant analysis of the Torah provides an opportunity for something called horeb, or "desolation." To climb up and meet God as He descends is to become desolate of all doubt and forever reminiscent of the Presence of God. This is the destiny of the Jew and how to accomplish it is in this document.
I hope this new translation of the Instructions are useful to you. I have included a new Festal Hebrew Mass at the end, please click ahead if you are interested.
Following this letter is a type of polemic called a Chazakah, which calls the People of Israel to gather in order to uphold mankind's most sacred traditions, which according to the Torah and its first sovereign, King David, require the installation of a Kingdom of Israel.
The place and its people alike are the stuff of legend-they are where good met evil first met head on and their victories have been missing from our lives for nearly three thousand years.
Perhaps it is time this changed. Thank you for visiting this forum consisting of 54 Frames, 5+4= 9 the number of months it takes fo a human being to be born. "Read the Torah and come to life."

A Chazakah for the Creation of a Reconstituted Kingdom of Israel.
Tumblr media
Rubric.
The Prophets of Israel and the Torah have spoken of this moment - the return of the Kingdom of Israel for a long time, and with it restoration of the Temple and the establishment of a Holy City inhabited by people of faith, in a "land brought back from the sword".
As these begin, the Age of Agony when men torture each other without limits will end, and an Age of Unity called Moshiach will take its place:
1.  Prophecies Regarding the Nation Kingdom and its Prosperity.  
The Tanakh commands all Jews and their friends, neighbors, families and enemies to cooperate in the latter days to build a kingdom that amplifies the presence of the Most High:  
 Ezekiel 38:  
8 After many days thou shalt be avisited: in the latter years thou shalt come into the land that is brought back from the sword, and is bgathered out of many people, against the cmountains of Israel, which have been always waste: but it is brought forth out of the nations, and they shall dwell dsafely all of them.
9 Thou shalt ascend and come like a astorm, thou shalt be like a bcloud to cover the land, thou, and all thy bands, and many people with thee.
10 Thus saith the Lord God; It shall also come to pass, that at the same time shall things come into thy amind, and thou shalt think an evil thought:
11 And thou shalt say, I will go up to the land of unwalled villages; I will go to them that are at rest, that dwell safely, all of them dwelling without walls, and having neither bars nor gates,
'12 To take a spoil, and to take a prey; to turn thine hand upon the desolate places that are now inhabited, and upon the people that are gathered out of the nations, which have gotten cattle and goods, that dwell in the midst of the land.'12 To take a spoil, and to take a prey; to turn thine hand upon the desolate places that are now inhabited, and upon the people that are gathered out of the nations, which have gotten cattle and goods, that dwell in the midst of the land.
13 Sheba, "the seven oaths" and Dedan, "the beloved" and the merchants of aTarshish, "the white dove in search of alabaster" with all the young lions thereof, shall say unto thee, Art thou come to take a spoil? hast thou gathered thy company to take a prey? to carry away silver and gold, to take away cattle and goods, to take a great spoil?
14  Therefore, son of man, prophesy and say unto Gog, "the Roof" Thus saith the Lord God; In that day when my people of Israel dwelleth safely, shalt thou not know it?
23 Thus will I magnify myself, and asanctify myself; and I will be bknown in the eyes of many nations, and they shall know that I am the Lord.
So we say to the Dweller on the Roof, the most beloved, we are gathering to take the spoils of our prey, to carry away our reputation, and secure our future in safety and righteousness. If we keep our promises,  God then promises no sin, no iniquity, no shame, no mistake shall keep Him gathering the People and exalting them before all the nations and magnifying His Pride for them:  
Ezekiel 39:
25 Therefore thus saith the Lord God; Now will I abring again the captivity of Jacob, and have mercy upon the whole house of bIsrael, and will be jealous for my holy name;
26 After that they have borne their shame, and all their trespasses whereby they have trespassed against me, when they dwelt safely in their land, and none made them afraid.
27 When I have brought them again from the people, and agathered them out of their enemies’ lands, and am sanctified in them in the sight of many nations;
28 Then shall they know that I am the Lord their God, which caused them to be led into captivity among the heathen: but I have gathered them unto their own land, and have left none of them any more there.
29 Neither will I ahide my face any more from them: for I have bpoured out my spirit upon the house of Israel, saith the Lord God.
 Not only did God say the Kingdom and His People would be repaid for their suffering, He Commanded them to lasting happiness and also to be the utmost members of humanity under all conditions, to warrant and raise up a King worthy of their ambitions and His:  
2.   King David’s Requirements for a King of Israel.  
1 Kings 2:2-4:
“I am about to go the way of all the earth,” he said. “So be strong, act like a man, and observe what the LORD your God requires: Walk in obedience to him, and keep his decrees and commands, his laws and regulations, as written in the Law. Do this so that you may prosper in all you do and wherever you go and that the LORD may keep his promise to me: ‘If your descendants watch how they live, and if they walk faithfully before me with all their heart and soul, you will never fail to have a successor on the throne of Israel.”
The people have kept David’s Covenant and suffered greatly and yet they continue to attain to the tendencies of the Most High. This has been documented over the ages and remains true to this day. http://www.scholink.org/ojs/index.php/jrph/article/view/4130 .
3.    Other Requirements for a King of Israel.  
As Melech, as the King. From Parsha Shoftim.  
14 When you enter the land the Lord your God is giving you and have taken possession of it and settled in it, and you say, “Let us set a king over us like all the nations around us,” 15 be sure to appoint over you a king the Lord your God chooses. He must be from among your fellow Israelites. Do not place a foreigner over you, one who is not an Israelite. 16 The king, moreover, must not acquire great numbers of horses for himself or make the people return to Egypt to get more of them, for the Lord has told you, “You are not to go back that way again.” 17 He must not take many wives, or his heart will be led astray. He must not accumulate large amounts of silver and gold.
18 When he takes the throne of his kingdom, he is to write for himself on a scroll a copy of this law, taken from that of the Levitical priests. 19 It is to be with him, and he is to read it all the days of his life so that he may learn to revere the Lord his God and follow carefully all the words of this law and these decrees 20 and not consider himself better than his fellow Israelites and turn from the law to the right or to the left. Then he and his descendants will reign a long time over his kingdom in Israel.
As Moshiach. 
It is a cardinal belief that a descendant of David, the Moshiach (messiah), will once again lead us to a restored Jewish kingdom in Israel, rebuild the Holy Temple and usher in an era of world peace and Gdly awareness. And this time it will last forever.
The Jewish messiah is a human being, a descendant of King David, who will lead the Jewish people back to the Land of Israel, where they serve Gd in peace, leading the nations of the world in attaining an understanding of the Creator.
Messiah will also rebuild the Holy Temple in Jerusalem, establishing an era of peace and prosperity. He will be a human being, born in normal fashion of human parents.3 The only qualification about his origins is that he is a descendant of King David,4 through the lineage of his son Solomon.5 From his birth onwards his righteousness will increase continually, and by virtue of his deeds he will merit sublime levels of spiritual perfection.6
He will be a scion, an outsider without ties to the traditions and ways of the people. 
Mashiach is a human being, but must also perform miracles beyond explanation like a god, but in Service to God. 
According to Rambam and other Sages Mashiach will “renew the Davidic dynasty”, meaning that he will bring the Jewish People to the ultimate level of observance and service to God. 
Subsequently the entire world will know HaShem- the Unsundering, and we will all worship Him together in peace and harmony. Rambam states that belief in the Messiah is not enough, and a Jew’s faith is not complete unless he anxiously waits and prepares for him to come.
4. Requirements for the Coronation.
Coronations for the King of Israel are to take place at Petra:
From Isaiah 16:
1Send lambs as tribute to the ruler of the land, from Sela, across the desert, to the mount of the Daughter of Zion.
2Like fluttering birds pushed from the nest, so are the women of Moab at the fords of the Arnon.
3"Give us counsel, render a decision. Make your shadow like night-- at high noon. Hide the fugitives, do not betray the refugees.
4Let the Moabite fugitives stay with you; be their shelter from the destroyer." The oppressor will come to an end, and destruction will cease; the aggressor will vanish from the land.
5In love a throne will be established; in faithfulness a man will sit on it-- one from the house[1] of David-- one who in judging seeks justice and speeds the cause of righteousness. Only the youngest  men and their oldest living female relatives shall be chosen shall to accompany the King during his Rite of Ascension.
See Exodus 2: Moses was a Lew. His mother was a Lew and so was his father. His mother put him in the Nile and his sister watched.
Now a man of the tribe of Levi married a Levite woman,
2 and she became pregnant and gave birth to a son. When she saw that he was a fine child, she hid him for three months.
3 But when she could hide him no longer, she got a papyrus basket[a] for him and coated it with tar and pitch. Then she placed the child in it and put it among the reeds along the bank of the Nile.
4 His sister stood at a distance to see what would happen to him. Thus were Moses and the People prepared for his Kingship, Freedom from Enslavement and their future journey to the Promised Land.
5.   On the Remittance of the Crown of Israel to the People.
Of greater importance than prophecy to the presence of a Crown over a new Kingdom of Israel are the Skills of Simeon Horeb, "A reputation that glows."
From the Torah and Tanakh:
If there is among you a poor person, one of your kin, in any of your towns within your land which God gives you, you shall not harden your heart or shut your hand against them, but you shall open your hand to them, and lend them sufficient for their needs, whatever they may be. Deuteronomy 15: 7-8
Anyone who withholds what is due to the poor blasphemes against the Maker of all, but one who is gracious unto the needy honors God. Proverbs 14:31  
One who mocks the poor blasphemes one’s Maker. Proverbs 17:5.
Thus the role of the King of Israel is not to have reign over the people but Absolute Authority over ending the causes of their poverty, scarcity, and depravity. No Crown shall be named, ordained, coronated, or serve as Melech unless he purports to These.
Should the people descended from the Sojourners in the Desert, called Jews fully purport to qualify as men, then they must follow this Law and Reconstitute as a Kingdom of Israelites and choose their King as the Law and words of the Prophet require.
Sha, Alef, and Ba.
“Salvation and Peace are Coming.”

The Stages. From Parsha Massei, The God of Israel.
Tumblr media
The Torah was written to recognize the specific reasons some civilizations burn down and others thrive. The Torah diagrams how sacred tenets and traditions work together to culminate in the creation of lasting communities that do not rely on tyranny for their survival.
These indulge in what is called Edom in the Torah, which means "to produce, to bring the vision to pass out of calmness into a likeness" and "committed to future generations."
I added this after the Chazakah in order to provide the Torah's basis for how one departs from one, like ours, in which the world is run by religious fanatics, and enter one where proper government provides us with all that we need.
Stages in Israel’s Journey
33 Here are the stages in the journey of the Israelites when they came out of Egypt by divisions under the leadership of Moses and Aaron. 2 At the Lord’s command Moses recorded the stages in their journey. This is their journey by stages:
3 The Israelites set out from Rameses "self-absorption"  on the fifteenth day of the first month, the day after the Passover. They marched out defiantly in full view of all the Egyptians, 4 who were burying all their firstborn, whom the Lord had struck down among them; for the Lord had brought judgment on their gods.
Stage 1.
5 The Israelites left Rameses and camped at Sukkoth (self-esteem).
The future must be free of men who worship themselves or each other. Today must be the last day for this.
Stage 2.
6 They left Sukkoth and camped at Etham (perpetuity), on the edge of the desert.
Self-Esteem is the adult version of selfishness.
Stage 3.
7 They left Etham, turned back to Pi Hahiroth ("The House of Former Nobilities", to the east of Baal Zephon ("The House of the Lord of What is Hidden") , and camped near Migdol ("Tower").
Notice we are leaving Egypt not Eden. Even still we are leaving childish behaviors behind. The desert represents times and places in life which are dry of violence, tyranny, gossip, scheming, and all ephahs or sins in order to be able to intellect the Science of the Eternal.
Stage 4.
8 They left Pi Hahiroth[a] “House of Rudiments of Nobility” and passed through the sea into the desert, and when they had traveled for three days in the Desert of Etham,”flowers eternally” (probably fr, Ethanim) they camped at Marah "the fattening".
The House of Darkness is in the North. To enter the House of the Sun, turn right, and what is noble and also resilient about mankind can also be found in the Tower, AKA a tall erect penis.
Stage 5.
8 They left Pi Hahiroth[a] “House of Rudiments of Nobility” and passed through the sea into the desert, and when they had traveled for three days in the Desert of Etham,”flowers eternally” (probably fr, Ethanim) they camped at Marah "the fattening".
8 They left Pi Hahiroth[a] “House of Rudiments of Nobility” and passed through the sea into the desert, and when they had traveled for three days in the Desert of Etham,”flowers eternally” (probably fr, Ethanim) they camped at Marah "the fattening".
Crossing the sea means regime change, a change of customs, self-rulership by the rules, by the book. Worship of God, called Etham, the Eternal is performed through the means of the ephemeral for which we were given a medium during the Three Days. Then we fill our minds with everything mankind has learned before us, far more rapidly than it has ever done before.
9 They left Marah and went to Elim (proturders), where there were twelve springs and seventy palm trees, and they camped there.
Stage 6.
Because we are intelligent, we are able to become skilled and accomplished and create civilization. Civilized men exhibit the 12 Skills and partake of the fruits of their labors know as the 70 Palms.
The skills and fruits remain the same, the civilization must always be on the move, especially if bitchers, complainers and gods the Elim, the enemies of the Elohim appear.
Stage 7.
10 They left Elim (protruders) and camped by the Red Sea.[b]
The Red Sea is the silence called Manasseh, the very thing we need if we are to come to God and be free of the bitchers:
The Midrash tells us that, seeing the approaching Egyptian army, the Jewish people were divided into four camps. There were those who said, “Let us throw ourselves into the sea.” A second group said, “Let us return to Egypt.” A third faction argued, “Let us wage war upon the Egyptians.” Finally, a fourth camp advocated, “Let us pray to G‑d.”
Moses, however, rejected all four options, saying to the people, “Fear not; stand by and see the salvation of G‑d which He will show you today. For as you have seen Egypt this day, you shall not see them again, forever. G‑d shall fight for you, and you shall be silent.”2
Stage 8.
11 They left the Red Sea and camped in the Desert of Sin "Dry of Darkness."
Stage 9.
12 They left the Desert of Sin and camped at Dophkah (to drive hard).
The Hard Drive is the one between age 20 and 40, AKA the Forty Years in the desert. This is the time we use to completely overcome our animal nature and puzzle out how we want to deal with the residual gloom left behind for us by the animal nature of the assholes that went before us.
These situations are interdependent. The youths that grew up during World War II had a different Hard Drive than the schmucks that are growing up after Quarantine.
Stage 10.
13 They left Dophkah and camped at Alush "the mingling".
Lest we work for what is called Eshkol, clustering of human beings of different configurations for the same purposes, civilization will always encounter elim and have to fight for its life.
Stage 11.
14 They left Alush and camped at Rephidim ("place of studs"), where there was no water for the people to drink.
Displays of masculinity are very, very important but without water, the best reflective surface there is, God Himself will not be seen. As we are experiencing, civilization scales only so far. Without Utter Godliness as explained by the Torah, backwards we will always fall.
Stage 12.
15 They left Rephidim and camped in the Desert of Sinai "I brought you to me."
Without the strong desire for happiness, mankind has no point, no future. It will simply, one day, find itself without options if it fails to seek the wisdom of God's Instructions, this Torah, and finally leave Eden, Sodom, Gomorrah, and Egypt in order to find it.
16 They left the Desert of Sinai and camped at Kibroth Hattaavah, "The Graves of Desire."
Stage 13.
The people started, once again, to listen to the bitchers. They were punished for this. From Behaalotekha:
31 Now a wind went out from the Lord and drove quail bitchers in from the sea. It scattered them up to two cubits[c] deep all around the camp, as far as a day’s walk in any direction. 32 All that day and night and all the next day the people went out and gathered quail. No one gathered less than ten homers.[d] Then they spread them out all around the camp. 33 But while the meat was still between their teeth and before it could be consumed, the anger of the Lord burned against the people, and he struck them with a severe plague. 34 Therefore the place was named Kibroth Hattaavah,[e] because there they buried the people who had craved other food.
35 From Kibroth Hattaavah “graves of those who lusted” the people traveled to Hazeroth “thicket wall”  and stayed there.
Stage 14.
17 They left Kibroth Hattaavah and camped at Hazeroth (the village).
"They made camp around the Pillar of Fire, the Temple, the epicenter of the Kingdom of Israel, from whence God and men commune with the Nations of the world."
Stage 15.
18 They left Hazeroth and camped at Rithmah "Great Friendship." .
The Village with its Temple creates friendships which lead to greater accomplishments:
Stage 16.
19 They left Rithmah and camped at Rimmon Perez ("Pomegranate Of The Breach").
Pomegranates, with all that blood colored juice and seeds are the laws, customs, traditions, and technologies that are conserved one generation to the next so that civilization never loses its way.
Friendship is the "Pomegranate in Hell."
Stage 17.
20 They left Rimmon Perez and camped at Libnah ("pure white") .
The Pomegranate which results from friendship communicates something pure to us that we can take home with us and wear like nice clean white underpants.
Stage 18.
21 They left Libnah and camped at Rissah ("distillation").
Wickedness, like idolatry is the opposite; like wearing dirty underpants. Do not wear dirty underpants.
Stage 19.
22 They left Rissah and camped at Kehelathah ("the assembly").
People who wear clean underpants can associate together. Those who do not, cannot. Do not suffer persons who cause strife or who worship gods to live.
Stage 20.
23 They left Kehelathah and camped at Mount Shepher ("Harmony, Beauty").
This must always be the truth. No matter how high the climb, we must make the attempt.
Stage 21.
24 They left Mount Shepher and camped at Haradah ("fear").
Haradah is fear of crossing the Jordan to enter Canaan. Humanity has always grappled with its fear of growing up. What will life be like if we completely embrace Godliness and get rid of guns, party politics, Pro-Life, racism, anti-Semitism, etc. What is holding us back? Irrational fear we will have no identity. When we do we will surely say it was worth it and truly know the meaning of Self.
What did Moses do with people that wouldn't give this a try? He killed them all.
Stage 22.
25 They left Haradah and camped at Makheloth ("assembly of the divine") or those most like God.
Stage 23.
26 They left Makheloth and camped at Tahath ("beneath").
Our Torah Tantra states we need to take a position of near perfect precision relative to the Most High, almost as if we are under the Pillar of Fire looking up through the column at the sky.
Stage 24.
27 They left Tahath and camped at Terah ("breather").
Once we position ourselves properly beneath God we finally become a child of God, like Abel, "the breather", able to grow into His Likeness.
Stage 25.
28 They left Terah and camped at Mithkah ("sweetness") .
To breathe in sweetness, or incest is to know the essence of God.
Stage 26.
29 They left Mithkah and camped at Hashmonah ("large numbers of noisy people.")
Strife, "smoke" is the opposite of incense and if it infects the Assembly, large numbers of noisy people are the result. This condition can result in Egypt.
Stage 27.
30 They left Hashmonah and camped at Moseroth ("The tie that binds.")
The Edoms, vows, prevent the noisemakers from triumphing.
Stage 28.
31 They left Moseroth and camped at Bene Jaakan ("sons of the Twister").
The Edoms must be woven into the people like threads are woven into yarns into cords, etc. The Twister is a very important person in a community.
Stage 29.
32 They left Bene Jaakan and camped at Hor Haggidgad ("The Central Light Of Little Fortunes").
This is when Moses, the Twister, began to hand the reins over to Joshua.
Step 30.
33 They left Hor Haggidgad and camped at Jotbathah ("Pleasantness").
Stage 31.
34 They left Jotbathah and camped at Abronah. ("Pass!")
There aren't any reasons why people can't be pleasantly twisted together and behave kindly, pleasantly, work together and entertain each other. There really isn't.
Stage 32.
35 They left Abronah and camped at Ezion Geber ("Backbone Of A Man, Foundation Of Human Essence".)
We're becoming more and more human, less noisy, closer to the discovery...I can feel it, can't you?
Stage 33.
36 They left Ezion Geber and camped at Kadesh, ("sacred place") in the Desert of Zin ("dry tradition").
A tradition of evolution must be maintained; as organisms we can't help but change and we must keep up. This is what is meant by the Ezion Geber, this ability to sense and respond with dignity to how things are moving along. The promise to do this with great skill and do one's best by others is called the Ark of the Covenant.
Stage 34.
37 They left Kadesh and camped at Mount Hor, "The Central Hub, the Hub of Heat" on the border of Edom. 
38 At the Lord’s command Aaron the priest went up Mount Hor, where he died on the first day of the fifth month of the fortieth year after the Israelites came out of Egypt. 39 Aaron was a hundred and twenty-three years old when he died on Mount Hor.
Aarons are men who exalt God and follows his directions, which are not only contained in the Decrees, etc. but who act like they know what they are doing because it is Good. Because it creates a likeness we can live with absent fear, slavery, violence, tyranny, fire, and strife.
Freedom from these forever are the rewards for obeying the God of Israel and the making of a remarkable Government in His Name.

Do not lie with a man like a woman.
Tumblr media
If we are to forge a proper new Kingdom of Israel we must learn how to lie with each other. There cannot be dissonance between persons committed to the Edoms only to have them fail in execution because of water-and-oil interpretations of the rest of the Torah.
There is to be one Kingdom of Israel, instituted at the behest of the the God of the same name and as His Torah, His Instructions state, there is to be a Central Lampstand, the Synagogue which preserves our traditions, standards and ethics around which the People carry out their lives and around us proliferates the rest of the world.
For this format to be successful there can be no questions of who can be reached by the Light emanating from the Central Hub.
...
In the Torah, opposite gender pairings are intentions plus effort, the womb of action= the fruits of the actions.
In order to understand how and why the Axiom is gender based we must look at translations of the names of the first man and the first woman.
Adam is "Edom" or "ruddy" or "commitment."
Eve is "the total collection of life."
To lay with another man at the expense of one's commitment to "Eve", all the rest, is considered detestable. Thus the correct interpretation of "do not lie with a man as with a woman for this is detestable and both of them shall be put to death" =
"Do not allow an inclination to become a bad habit. If this happens the inclination and the pattern have to end."
All couplings in the Torah are between a committed man and an outcome that benefits the total community of life forms from there on out. The hidden meanings of the names and the results of their coupling are easy to decipher and follow.
Dirty wankers and filthy handbags, these things are unlikely to make a good match in any combination. If one examines those that do, it is easy to see how the pairing of nice boy and a woman not of ill repute will make of themselves a nation that is great.
The most famous being Jacob, the "follower" with Leah, the "leading cow" from the Book of Genesis, leading to the skill set that results in birth of Israel make perfect sense. The Book of Joshua, however, discusses something else entirely but for the same purposes.
In both cases, regardless of gender you always treat a man like a man, and a woman like a lady.
The Torah stipulates adult members of civil societies are expected to be able to incorporate rational discussions of human sexuality in their repertoire from an early age and includes same sex as well as opposite sex relations.
The importance of this explains why Moses starts the discussion of our journey as human beings in Bereshit at puberty. Do we, or don't we and why or why not?
The conversation is meant for boys who are starting to become hairy and girls who are becoming scary because puberty is when the brain starts to connect the dots between the discipline one's parents enforced during childhood and the expectations of adults with fully functional parts. Much of the Torah toggles between what parents should do before we age out of their homes, and how we should behave till we become like them later on.
God tries his best to love us the entire way; the greatest expression of this in human history is found the document ahead. There is a reason for everything He says within it, including the path to loving the penis. To trap oneself away from it because of propaganda about sex is to commit the sin of Slavery in Egypt.
The Gematria in fact reinforces this: if we translate the prohibition against laying a man like a woman, what is returned is 4798-945, ד‎ז‎ט‎ח טד‎ה‎, dazat-teda, "to know of God, the brightness of Him, a man must know his own path, his own ways":
Proverbs 18:15
An intelligent heart acquires knowledge [da’at], and the ear of the wise seeks knowledge [da’at].
If God is all knowing, it’s in our best interest to get to know God as much as we can. Of course, YHWH knows us, inside and out, but how much do we truly know Him?
Psalm 139:1-6
YHWH, You have searched me and known me [wa-teda]. You know [ya’da’ta] when I sit down and when I get up; You understand my thought from far away.
You scrutinize my path and my lying down, and are acquainted with all my ways. Even before there is a word on my tongue, behold, YHWH, You know it all [ya’da’ta kullah].
You have encircled me behind and in front, and placed Your hand upon me. Such knowledge [da’at] is too wonderful for me; it is too high, I cannot comprehend it.
God knows all, but we don’t. Although we are called to seek the knowledge of God, we cannot know everything. There are mysteries that will always remain a mystery, and that’s okay. But that does not mean we should stop seeking knowledge. What God wants us to know will be revealed to those who seek.
To this end, God allowed one man to intercourse with another and only these two: King David and Prince Jonathan, from 2 Samuel:
“I am distressed for thee, my brother Jonathan: very pleasant hast thou been unto me: thy love to me was wonderful, passing the love of women.”
So, David "persistently beautiful" + Yah natan, which means to give in a broad bouquet of senses, from regular giving or bestowing, to setting or putting, to transforming one thing or situation into another.
This verb's three nouns מתן (mattan), מתנה (mattana) and מתת (mattat) all mean gift, again broadly ranging from a regular present to an offering to an innate talent (being "gifted").
Just as Jacob (follower) can intercourse with Leah (leader), and Abram (the shield) intercourse with Seriah (the state) to create offspring that further the development of mankind, men can intercourse together provided the circumstances are as transformative in the present as they were when David met Jonathan in ancient times. As the Gematria says.
Otherwise intercourse with a man like he is a woman is forbidden.
If you are a lesbian, the Gematria for "do not lie with a woman like a man" is "Build a New Jerusalem", 2433, בדגג, "in the roof":
The Sukkah Tells the Truth
Unlike our everyday environment, the sukkah doesn’t tell us any lies. It reflects reality as it actually is. Its roof is a simple canopy of leaves and branches, open to the sky. Insubstantial in its physical structure, the sukkah invites us to abandon the illusion that physical things—a “roof”—can either protect or limit us.
In addition to being insubstantial, the sukkah is temporary. This fact encourages us to step out of the limiting boundaries of a past- and future-based perspective, and embrace the truly unlimited potential that is only available in the present.
The sukkah calls us to the truth. And as we listen to G‑d’s command, remember the miracles with which we left Egypt, and enter the insubstantial, impermanent and intensely powerful embrace of the sukkah, we acknowledge this truth. We acknowledge it not only with our minds, but with our bodies as well. We let go of the illusions with which we surround ourselves, and embrace the essence of what life is."

The Torah Tantra, from Parshiot 1-3.
Tumblr media
Inside the Torah are myths and stories that are riddled with Hebrew. Embedded in the strings of Hebrew terms are Heraphons, “perfect codes” that explain the essence of the stories. They are built using terms representing various personality traits, places, geography, directions, elevations, temperatures, and bodily functions.
Here are the translations of the Hebrew words into English, starting with Parsha 1 ending with Parsha 3 I have lifted from the script in order to provide the utmost clarity regarding the Heraphons or "perfect guiding principals" found in the rest of the Torah:
Leadership begins with the tilling of the mind. Vanity leads to bloodshed. Face east, where the sun rises to grow out of vanity, and enter the city of discipline. There, fugitives from the innocence that is destroyed by God* will become men of God, will become strong after their humiliation [loss of virginity].
To intercourse with beauty is to follow the course. To follow the shadow leads to humiliation. To follow the course is to build tents - temples within the hearts of men, and raise livestock, Godly generations, and teach them to harmonize as different instruments in a band. This takes place by honing the spiritual self that resides inside the dicks with assholes. Lead them into a glowing global economy and they will be sweet and pleasant.
God created mankind in His Likeness. He made them complementary, one on the left, one on the right, one for today, one for tomorrow. 
Through brilliance, a foundation was born. It was called mankind. It was an early mankind, weak, but with tremendous potential. By composing new ideas and efforts, man was able to grow and please God. 
There was a descent into darkness but discipline caused strength to return. The was a great respite, and conscious knowledge of the creation protected the world and there was expansion of human ingenuity in every direction.
Complete knowledge [of the Torah] leads to mercy. Mercy is the mission and crosses over all the divisions. It branches out through friendships. It is the fire that scorches slaves and makes them into freedmen. It protects those who wander, it shields them, exalts them and makes them into mountaineers [of Ararat- where curses are wrung out].
Governors and governments born on Ararat, who are violence free, purged of its influences, who are guided by the Fire of Chesed to Canaan, they are verily the servants of God.
By the light of the fire of knowledge and incense of the words of the Torah, mature men, the sons of the righteous, who are free of corruption, should rule as senators over the primitive, the corrupt, thieves, naysayers, and make them fruitful.
Press idolaters to serve the government and the generations will follow. Once the people see their government sees them too, they will cross over and live in holiness just as the Writing says; they will become  themselves.” 
*The changes that begin in the body after intercourse are necessary if a whole, intelligent and capable human being to emerge.

The Ephod, the Passport to Heaven.
Tumblr media
The Hebrew terms in the Torah are composed of what is called Ephod "gatherings that discourse with knowledge" from the Hebrew alphabet. The terms that Ephod in the Torah are called “The Skills” but I have also called them Attributes and Traits. They correspond to the 12 Tribes and their sons of whom there are 70 in total. Together and separately with other Ephods in the Torah they can be collected into Torah Tantras, "The Practices of the Instructions."
They are all eye-opening, uplifting, the very best wisdom mankind has at its disposal bar none.
Now these are the names of the descendants of Israel, who came into Egypt, Jacob and his sons. Reuben, Jacob's firstborn.
9 and the sons of Reuben: Hanoch, Pallu, Hezron, and Carmi. 
The leader, trained, villager, to discern, the vineyard. 
“The well trained leader, one who discerns is like a vineyard to the village.” 
10 The sons of Simeon: Jemuel, Jamin, Ohad, Jachin, Zohar, and Shaul, the son of a Canaanite woman. 
Who listens, sent by God, the Right Hand, to praise, established, splendor, to supplicate
“He is a Prophet of God, an Instrument, his actions praise God, he is established in himself, is brilliant in his Supplications.”  
11 The sons of Levi: Gershon, Kohath, and Merari. 
Unity, stranger, priest who works miracles, bitter
“Unity makes us a stranger to bitterness, it works miracles.” 
12 The sons of Judah: Er, Onan, Shelah, Perez, and Zerah (but Er and Onan died in the land of Canaan); and the sons of Perez were Hezron and Hamul. 
Praise, aroused, wild, experience of trouble, missionary, breach, the dawn, village, to be hot. 
“When trouble is aroused, the missionary breaches the walls of the village, exposing it to the dawn, to purify it.” 
13 The sons of Issachar: Tola, Puvah, Yob, and Shimron. 
Rewards, the red thread, the mouth, bully, to guard.
“To reap the rewards of civilization, resort to the red thread, the vows, which protect the mouth from sin.” 
14 The sons of Zebulun: Sered, Elon, and Jahleel. 
dwelling of honor, dyer’s vat, oak tree, to wait or hope
“Those who hope for the common man, who lend him their strength will dwell in the Village of Honor.” 
15 These are the sons of Leah, whom she bore to Jacob in Paddan-aram, together with his daughter Dinah; altogether his sons and his daughters numbered thirty-three.
Leah= weary
Jacob= follower
Paddan Aram= the Most High. 
Dinah= to govern
“The wild, tired girl cow who follows a man of God to the Most High will be fit to govern.” 
16 The sons of Gad: Ziphion, Haggi, Shuni, Ezbon, Eri, Arodi, and Areli. 
Fortune, to cover, to gather for a festival, to be quiet, hastening to understand, focused on God, fugitive, gathered by God,
“Fortune is Refuge in God. This is attained by stillness, by an urgency to understand.  All fugitives from slavery who focus on God are gathered to Him by these means.”
17 The sons of Asher: Imnah, Ishvah, Ishvi, Beriah, with Serah their sister. And the sons of Beriah: Heber and Malchiel. 
The sons of happiness: prosperity, destiny, man equal to God, in evil, princess, abundance. Associate, God is my king. 
“The sons of the happy have a destiny, they are prosperous and have abundance. The sons of evil treat God as an associate, not as the King.” 
18 These are the sons of Zilpah, whom Laban gave to Leah his daughter; and these she bore to Jacob—sixteen persons.
to drip, white leah, to follow
“The weary [of trouble] if they want to be pure, should follow Jacob [and overcome].”
 19 The sons of Rachel, Jacob's wife: Joseph and Benjamin. 
“The fruits of their actions will be a son of the Sun.” 
20 And to Joseph in the land of Egypt were born Manasseh and Ephraim, whom Asenath, the daughter of Potiphera the priest of On, bore to him. 
The Fruitful, the forgetful, the son of the fruitful, the thorn bush, whom the Sun has given, priest of the son, the pillar of the sun.
“The most fruitful meditate on the sun, and are pillars of sunlight.”
21 And the sons of Benjamin: Bela, Becher, Ashbel, Gera, Naaman, Ehi, Rosh, Muppim, Huppim, and Ard. 
Sons of the South, swallow, born first, fire flowing forth, sojourning, pleasantness, brotherly, chief, protection, covering, to be free.
“Sons of the sun swallow the traditions of the past with the free flowing fire of knowledge, they end slavery and sojourning, are the chief protectors of those who want to be free.”
22 These are the sons of Rachel, who were born to Jacob—fourteen persons in all.
23 The son[c] of Dan: Hushim.
“Hasten to God’s Judgement.”
24 The sons of Naphtali: Jahzeel, Guni, Jezer, and Shillem. 25 These are the sons of Bilhah, whom Laban gave to Rachel his daughter, and these she bore to Jacob—seven persons in all.
Struggles, God divides, gardenesque, shape, to make whole, terror, purity, ewe. 
“Those who work to purify the Garden of all fear, God will pay dividends one generation after another.” 
26 All the persons belonging to Jacob who came into Egypt, who were his own descendants, not including Jacob's sons' wives, were sixty-six persons in all. 
27 And the sons of Joseph, who were born to him in Egypt, were two. All the persons of the house of Jacob who came into Egypt were seventy.
-From Parsha Vayegash.
Success with the Skills and Instructions found in the Ephod is a passport to the Company of the Most High after death. Upon separation from the body, God will try to see Himself reflected in the soul of the departed. If Ephod is present, Unity with God, the Great Miracle, will proceed.

1. Parsha Bereshit, “Read from Right to Left to Learn the Meaning of Things.” From Genesis 1:1–6:8.
Tumblr media
Judaism is a path that leads away from man's naturally inept state to one that is able to science reality and live in safety, intimacy and comfort.
All of this was planned for us from the beginning, and these are the instructions:
The Beginning
1 In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. 2 Now the earth was formless and empty, darkness was over the surface of the deep, and the Spirit of God was hovering over the waters.
3 And God said, “Let there be light,” and there was light. 4 God saw that the light was good, and he separated the light from the darkness. 5 God called the light “day,” and the darkness he called “night.” And there was evening, and there was morning—the first day.
6 And God said, “Let there be a vault between the waters to separate water from water.” 7 So God made the vault and separated the water under the vault from the water above it. And it was so. 8 God called the vault “sky.” And there was evening, and there was morning—the second day.
9 And God said, “Let the water under the sky be gathered to one place, and let dry ground appear.” And it was so. 10 God called the dry ground “land,” and the gathered waters he called “seas.” And God saw that it was good.
11 Then God said, “Let the land produce vegetation: seed-bearing plants and trees on the land that bear fruit with seed in it, according to their various kinds.” And it was so. 12 The land produced vegetation: plants bearing seed according to their kinds and trees bearing fruit with seed in it according to their kinds. And God saw that it was good. 13 And there was evening, and there was morning—the third day.
14 And God said, “Let there be lights in the vault of the sky to separate the day from the night, and let them serve as signs to mark sacred times, and days and years, 15 and let them be lights in the vault of the sky to give light on the earth.” And it was so. 16 God made two great lights—the greater light to govern the day and the lesser light to govern the night. He also made the stars. 17 God set them in the vault of the sky to give light on the earth, 18 to govern the day and the night, and to separate light from darkness. And God saw that it was good. 19 And there was evening, and there was morning—the fourth day.
20 And God said, “Let the water teem with living creatures, and let birds fly above the earth across the vault of the sky.” 21 So God created the great creatures of the sea and every living thing with which the water teems and that moves about in it, according to their kinds, and every winged bird according to its kind. And God saw that it was good. 22 God blessed them and said, “Be fruitful and increase in number and fill the water in the seas, and let the birds increase on the earth.” 23 And there was evening, and there was morning—the fifth day.
24 And God said, “Let the land produce living creatures according to their kinds: the livestock, the creatures that move along the ground, and the wild animals, each according to its kind.” And it was so. 25 God made the wild animals according to their kinds, the livestock according to their kinds, and all the creatures that move along the ground according to their kinds. And God saw that it was good.
26 Then God said, “Let us make mankind in our image, in our likeness, so that they may rule over the fish in the sea and the birds in the sky, over the livestock and all the wild animals,[a] and over all the creatures that move along the ground.”
27 So God created mankind in his own image,    in the image of God he created them;    male and female he created them.
28 God blessed them and said to them, “Be fruitful and increase in number; fill the earth and subdue it. Rule over the fish in the sea and the birds in the sky and over every living creature that moves on the ground.”
29 Then God said, “I give you every seed-bearing plant on the face of the whole earth and every tree that has fruit with seed in it. They will be yours for food. 30 And to all the beasts of the earth and all the birds in the sky and all the creatures that move along the ground—everything that has the breath of life in it—I give every green plant for food.” And it was so.
31 God saw all that he had made, and it was very good. And there was evening, and there was morning—the sixth day.
2 Thus the heavens and the earth were completed in all their vast array.
2 By the seventh day God had finished the work he had been doing; so on the seventh day he rested from all his work. 3 Then God blessed the seventh day and made it holy, because on it he rested from all the work of creating that he had done.
The full potential of mankind began when God opened his eyes for the first time and stared past the darkness our latent human animal nature. To cure us of it, He prescribed us the Torah, which is Hebrew for “Divine Effort.” 
All discussions of the Seven Days pertain to vaulting the very best aspects of humanity from its very worst. This is the inherent purpose in every sacrament, ornament, miracle, and tenet in the Torah.
The process and product are not esoteric. There are signs and offices "prescriptions" which conclude when all men gather to rest in a Village of Honor. When this is concluded and achieved, this is presumably where God Himself will also rest. 
When the Torah begins, none of this exists, all we are given is a God, creation, a place to live and signs of life, and our first tantra- a holy day where resting is to be observed.
The correct term for resting is called Shabbat in Hebrew or "rebirth". On the final day, after all is made good and holy as the Lord of Light assigned them to be, we exit the stages of immaturity and enter into a new life.
First comes the Apricot Tree, the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil, and with it comes puberty...Adam and Eve are next as Bereshit continues.
Nights signify what is hidden by God, what is chaotic and apprehensive about the creation. For us, nights are times when effort and chaos struggle with one another just as when God vaulted the world from its anti-self.
Days are sacramental, they are the inverse- they reveal the Blessedness of God through the practices and insights obtained from the Torah. Our only real lingering defense from the anti-self.
During the nights we transition from vacant turf to a place hospitable to things that root in the day. During the night things that swim or creep grow legs so they can walk during the day.
During the night the mind is on its own with God and His mercy, during the day we are able to read and commune with others and pursue viable ways to spend the increments of day life that remain.
Spans of days and nights are of different numbers and duration depending on the amount of exposure to the Torah and its practices that are needed to obtain an audience. Audiences in the Torah take place after climbs, which we will see.
Climbs, like days are graded, and are almost always performed alone and are done as if one were naked before God. Later in the Torah and in the Book of Joshua the writing lauds climbing together as a kind of intimacy that is superior to all others.
To Audience with the God of Israel is unlike any other use of that time, it reels us in by the gold chain that binds the days together, securing us from finally succumbing to the lurking darkness with which we have overshadowed this world.
Each Day within the Seven Days represents an increasing volume of daylight experience that takes place as we leave the shadow of the tragedies perpetrated by humanity upon itself behind.
The Torah is a heavily encrypted epic poem that matrixes various practices across itself; the Temple Diagram is the only hint we have as to how it all works together and even that has to be overlaid upon the Genealogy of the Noble Skills and Attributes found in the 12 and the 70.
Parsha 1 emphasizes the complex intelligence God gave man and his capacity to understand the meaning of holiness in his surroundings and work as much of it into his life as possible, like a farmer planting a crop within himself.
The field is one's lifetime and the episodes across which one divides it. The Torah identifies 7 days or rows so to speak consisting of the Seven Days, Seven Adams and Eves, which correspond to the First Seven Parshiot:
Tumblr media
There are 6 days and 9 "Inverted, Hidden Truths" in the Torah= the 54 Frames or Parshiot:
The secret of the tet (numerically equivalent to nine (9), the nine months of pregnancy) is the power of the mother to carry her inner, concealed good – the fetus – throughout the period of pregnancy.
Nine also represents the 9th Dimensional Object called the Merkaba, or a 9D Star of David, which is the same as the dwelling place of God we call heaven.
Tumblr media
The Nine D object also sorts out as 9 X 3= 27, half the Effort is exerted by mankind, half is exerted by the Most High, = 54; the union between the two is called Zenock. Outside Zenock is Zenos, "free floating knowledge." There is a place that runs between these states called Aram Naharaim the Highland Between Two Rivers, Elevation Of Two Lights.
If one is translate from the body into the Object this Place Between must be crossed. Failure to use the body to decude the true nature of God as a free floating Spirit will result in exclusion.
Parsha 1 and the rest of the Torah continue....

Adam and Eve.
Tumblr media
Adam and Eve are respectively, "Commitment" and "the Total Collective". As we are going to see, all Hebrew words, even one or two in the Torah are tantric. They are metaphors in prosaic form that translate into mantras and "offices"- directions by which sacramental acts are to be performed.
Study of tantras and their executions take place at the literary level, the level of the body, the mind, the intellect, and the manifest world; upon mastery they reveal what is un-manifest, also called superconscious, which Bereshit explains as the hidden difference between chaos and order.
In other faiths the superconscious hides behind a veil of darkness. In Judaism, it radiates from behind the heart of the sun.
The God of Israel is a solar deity, one made of fire and the utmost of heat. To audience with Him as an Israelite is to experience the bliss of the sun and its cause, the God of Israel.
The Torah says climbing, always climbing is the key to obtaining the Audience. If the Torah were a mountain, these tantras would be the steps carved in its flanks to permit the climb. Adam and Eve began their lives in a garden, completely unprepared for any kind of climbing.
The climbing steps they needed were explained right to their noses. Like all the "steps" in the Parshiot, they are to be applied to the self and to all selves. Individuals and collectives are always undergoing change and evolution, always at different rates and in response to different forces.
Something has to remain the same generation after generation of selves within the person and outside the person to serve as a foundation or the "Adam" portion. Adam also means "ruddiest" and is related to the word Edom about which we just read. To be ruddy is to pay heed to Edom.
The Adam of Mankind, the commitment we are automatically born into is called Judaism and it is explained in the Torah. Eve, the wife, the beneficiary of all commitments required by the Torah is the human race.
The Seven Days result in creation and the creation results in man. Each Day represents a profound change in the configuration on the surface of the earth- they are tantra, very linear with how the mind of man and regulations of society spring up and give birth to a world that is effortlessly self-governing according the highest principals.
First, however we have to get past puberty. Puberty and virginity are hot topics in the Torah. To participate in society one must demonstrate competence with one's generative organs and the changes in the self that take place when they become productive. Before this one as the Torah reveals, one has one's parents.
The Tree of Life- an apricot, btw- is the penis, its flower is the vijay. To complete the union of the two- eat of the fruit of the tree- and lose one's virginity is as God says, verily the same thing as dying.
As in nature and in the Torah, girls come into season first. Eve's sin was not a sin, her body underwent its adult transformation right on schedule, ahead of her husbands. This is how things are and have always been, and troubled parents including our Parent from the very beginning.
Read on and see how God says we should handle this now, today:
Adam and Eve
4 This is the account of the heavens and the earth when they were created, when the Lord God made the earth and the heavens.
5 Now no shrub had yet appeared on the earth[b] and no plant had yet sprung up, for the Lord God had not sent rain on the earth and there was no one to work the ground, 6 but streams[c] came up from the earth and watered the whole surface of the ground. 
7 Then the Lord God formed a man[d] from the dust of the ground and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life, and the man became a living being.
8 Now the Lord God had planted a garden in the east, in Eden; and there he put the man he had formed. 
9 The Lord God made all kinds of trees grow out of the ground—trees that were pleasing to the eye and good for food. In the middle of the garden were the tree of life and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil.
10 A river watering the garden flowed from Eden; from there it was separated into four headwaters. 
11 The name of the first is the Pishon; “to break” it winds through the entire land of Havilah “to whirl”, where there is gold “understanding.” 
12 (The gold of that land is good; aromatic resin[e] “right speech” and onyx “high spoken”, “intuition” are also there.) 
13 The name of the second river is the Gihon “gusher”;  it winds through the entire land of Cush “prophets”.[f]
14 The name of the third river is the Tigris, aka hiddekel, “to be swift and articulate” ; it runs along the east side of Ashur “level” . And the fourth river is the Euphrates “good, noble” .
->As you will see, the use of Hebrew terms in the Torah is for the purposes of defining the skills we need to be human. They are strung together to create mantras. The first one in the Torah is this: 
“To break through and distill understanding in the "place of delight," attend to the words of the prophets, who are intelligent, articulate, swift in action, level, straight up, and demonstrate good and noble qualities.” 
15 The Lord God took the man and put him in the Garden of Eden to work it and take care of it. 16 And the Lord God commanded the man, “You are free to eat from any tree in the garden; 
17 but you must not eat from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, for when you eat from it you will certainly die.”
18 The Lord God said, “It is not good for the man to be alone. I will make a helper suitable for him.”
19 Now the Lord God had formed out of the ground all the wild animals and all the birds in the sky. He brought them to the man to see what he would name them; and whatever the man called each living creature, that was its name. 
20 So the man gave names to all the livestock, the birds in the sky and all the wild animals. But for Adam[g] no suitable helper was found. 
21 So the Lord God caused the man to fall into a deep sleep; and while he was sleeping, he took one of the man’s ribs[h] and then closed up the place with flesh. 
22 Then the Lord God made a woman from the rib[i] he had taken out of the man, and he brought her to the man.
23 The man said, “This is now bone of my bones    and flesh of my flesh; she shall be called ‘woman,’    for she was taken out of man.”
24 That is why a man leaves his father and mother and is united to his wife, and they become one flesh.
25 Adam and his wife were both naked, and they felt no shame.
-> So God puts Adam  “soil” in a place where he is to pay heed to the words of men which are on the level. 
He creates Eve, woman "all future life to come" from of one of Adam’s ribs and tells them both if they eat from the fruit of a certain tree, they will die. 
It is true physically as well as emotionally if you bone someone, you die. Night descends, and a new kind of day is forced out the next morning.
It is a decision God has asked us not to take lightly. An Adam that is not particularly committed during the night will not cause fireworks in the sky the next day.
Even if he does not conceive, by laying him you give birth to a loser and that means the Serpent wins, and that's never good, and God said all the days must be good.

The Fall.
Tumblr media
What is the serpent? And why is the Apricot Tree at the Center of the Garden? Hint: They have always been there, the penis and the fruit-bearing womb, which reside at the centers of the human body and also of human community, and they always will be.
As we all know, the Parsha is correct, the serpent can be a crafty fellow, so what to do?
3 Now the serpent was more crafty than any of the wild animals the Lord God had made. He said to the woman, “Did God really say, ‘You must not eat from any tree in the garden’?”
2 The woman said to the serpent, “We may eat fruit from the trees in the garden, 3 but God did say, ‘You must not eat fruit from the tree that is in the middle of the garden, and you must not touch it, or you will die.’”
4 “You will not certainly die,” the serpent said to the woman. 5 “For God knows that when you eat from it your eyes will be opened, and you will be like God, knowing good and evil.”
-> Important for understanding the rest of the Torah. Death is the opening of the eyes. Every term in the Torah, ever meme and symbol is carefully explained, and what we learn early on must be carried forward. To stone someone to death using the Testimony Stones is to cause the death of a persistent character deficit that is in the way.
Death is the end of delusion or ignorance. When death or capital punishments, the real things, are to be meted out, there is always additional context that explains the rationale.
Otherwise, it is the sole intention of the God of Israel to conserve life on earth and compel it to move forward. This often requires the unpleasantness of the night, the time between moments when we obey the order of things and when we choose to wing it and see what will happen:
6 When the woman saw that the fruit of the tree was good for food and pleasing to the eye, and also desirable for gaining wisdom, she took some and ate it. She also gave some to her husband, who was with her, and he ate it. 
7 Then the eyes of both of them were opened, and they realized they were naked; so they sewed fig leaves together and made coverings for themselves.
Tumblr media
-> We need to talk about the fig leaf aprons that Adam and Eve wore after they gave up their innocence to one another.
The fig tree sheds its leaves in winter, at the end of which, even before the tree is covered with leaves, the paggim ("green figs," Song 2:13) begin to develop in the form of small fruits, which are really tiny flowers covered with a soft skin, and which continue to grow during the summer months.
Hosea (9:10):
“When I found Israel, it was like finding grapes in the desert; when I saw your ancestors,  it was like seeing the early fruit on the fig tree. But when they came to Baal Peor, "The Lord of the Hole" they consecrated themselves to that shameful idol and became as vile as the thing they loved."
Apparently, first ripe figs are not as delicious as those that are overripe and positively burst with flavor at the end of summer. The choice to clothe themselves in fig leaves before God after they engaged in forbidden intercourse shows how naive they truly were:
8 Then the man and his wife heard the sound of the Lord God as he was walking in the garden in the cool of the day, and they hid from the Lord God among the trees of the garden. 9 But the Lord God called to the man, “Where are you?”
10 He answered, “I heard you in the garden, and I was afraid because I was naked; so I hid.”
11 And he said, “Who told you that you were naked? Have you eaten from the tree that I commanded you not to eat from?”
12 The man said, “The woman you put here with me—she gave me some fruit from the tree, and I ate it.”
13 Then the Lord God said to the woman, “What is this you have done?”
The woman said, “The serpent deceived me, and I ate.”
14 So the Lord God said to the serpent, “Because you have done this,
“Cursed are you above all livestock  and all wild animals! You will crawl on your belly and you will eat dust all the days of your life. 15 And I will put enmity  between you and the woman, and between your offspring[j] and hers; he will crush[k] your head, and you will strike his heel.”
16 To the woman he said,
“I will make your pains in childbearing very severe; with painful labor you will give birth to children. Your desire will be for your husband, and he will rule over you.”
17 To Adam he said, “Because you listened to your wife and ate fruit from the tree about which I commanded you, ‘You must not eat from it,’
“Cursed is the ground because of you;   through painful toil you will eat food from it   all the days of your life. 18 It will produce thorns and thistles for you, and you will eat the plants of the field. 19 By the sweat of your brow   you will eat your food until you return to the ground,   since from it you were taken; for dust you are   and to dust you will return.”
20 Adam[l] named his wife Eve,[m] because she would become the mother of all the living.
-> Adam is now livestock. He is one of the animals because he didn't listen to God and properly consider the implications of his words and copulated at the first opportunity. This is the first hint in the Torah men and the animals share characteristics but the man decides which ones are reared (and slaughtered and eaten) by his character and actions.
Eve, the symbiosis between the soil and what is planted in it is vegetarian, and does not consume blood only water. The unity of this water with all that grows in soil is how the generations are born.
Adam's serpent is the eater of dust and the dust is the Mother of us all together they will produce violent and savage men as well as those that can be cropped, whose characters will fruit. With a great deal of effort, Adam and Eve will be able to grow up:
21 The Lord God made garments of skin for Adam and his wife and clothed them. 22 And the Lord God said, “The man has now become like one of us, knowing good and evil. He must not be allowed to reach out his hand and take also from the tree of life and eat, and live forever.” 
-> Garments- the arts and sciences we learned from God first and then from other persons as mankind developed- clothe the animal nature of man and make him sentient. We transmit what we learn to each other, saving the time and effort needed to restart civilization each time a generation begins.
This includes conveying a healthy sense or humor and rational approach towards intercourse and demonstrated sanity when it is not obtainable...
23 So the Lord God banished him from the Garden of Eden to work the ground from which he had been taken. 
24 After he drove the man out, he placed on the east side[n] of the Garden of Eden cherubim and a flaming sword flashing back and forth to guard the way to the tree of life.
->Only God is permitted to outstretch His hand, from Isaiah 45:
"It is I who made the earth     and created mankind on it. My own hands stretched out the heavens;     I marshaled their starry hosts. 13 I will raise up Cyrus[b] "like the sun" in my righteousness:     I will make all his ways straight. He will rebuild my city     and set my exiles free, but not for a price or reward,     says the Lord Almighty.”
Because the failed to respect God's Hand, Adam and Eve are cast out, then forbidden to return to Eden by two Angels, who happen to be Michael and Gabriel. They show up again in the story of Sodom and Gomorrah for reasons similar to what happened in Eden, a failure to respect God's authority.
Adam and Eve must head East in search of their future as a result:
-> East is the direction of waking up, of maturity. The Cherubim “to draw into the likeness of God” represent "yesterday and tomorrow" guard the Center of the Garden called the Kruvim or the space between.
Tumblr media
Two Cherubim also flank the cover of the Ark of the Covenant, two flanked Christ in the Book of Luke during His crucifixion. 
The loss of virginity, also a kind of Kruvim in life, is clearly a kind of waking up. Before we wake up about anything that costs us our innocence we should try being discrete first, as God warned Adam and Eve.
In spite of the fact he told them to, wait, grow up a bit, if you touch that mess over there, you might make a baby...they didn’t listen. Then they had to leave home and take on adult responsibilities before they were completely weaned.

Cain and Abel.
Tumblr media
4 Adam[o] made love to his wife Eve, “soil and symbiosis come together", and she became pregnant and gave birth to Cain “the tiller, the smith”.[p] 
She said, “With the help of the Lord I have brought forth[q] a man.” 2 Later she gave birth to his brother Abel. “vanity”.
Now Abel kept flocks, and Cain worked the soil. 3 In the course of time Cain brought some of the fruits of the soil as an offering to the Lord. 
4 And Abel also brought an offering—fat portions from some of the firstborn of his flock. The Lord looked with favor on Abel and his offering, 5 but on Cain and his offering he did not look with favor. So Cain was very angry, and his face was downcast.
6 Then the Lord said to Cain, “Why are you angry? Why is your face downcast? 7 If you do what is right, will you not be accepted? But if you do not do what is right, sin is crouching at your door; it desires to have you, but you must rule over it.”
8 Now Cain said to his brother Abel, “Let’s go out to the field.”[r] While they were in the field, Cain attacked his brother Abel and killed him.
9 Then the Lord said to Cain, “Where is your brother Abel?”
“I don’t know,” he replied. “Am I my brother’s keeper?”
-> Fat is flavor; if we hearken back to the previous section where Adam and Eve, who were also "flavorless figs" did not act with experience but with impulse instead. Abel was not fit to rear sheep or sacrifice them to God. Cain, the Tiller was well within his rights to kill off the vanity in the world. Cute doesn't always boil the water, they say.
10 The Lord said, “What have you done? Listen! Your brother’s blood cries out to me from the ground. 11 Now you are under a curse and driven from the ground, which opened its mouth to receive your brother’s blood from your hand. 
12 When you work the ground, it will no longer yield its crops for you. You will be a restless wanderer on the earth.”
-> Blood is time; it circulates through the body through the water into the ground and back into the body again and creates life after life. Cain and Abel like all of our pairs of twins, Isaac and Ishmael, Esau and Jacob, Moses and Aaron, are all embodied within the same man.
Remember in the Garden, God says to grow up means to die. God's exhortation to Cain, "You're done here!" Means he needs to move on from crops to flocks, which he does- to growing up of other men and as we see, a great city.
To subdue one's vanity and finish tilling the Self out of the ground is to shed the blood of time and it requires setting off. God even says Cain, our first real survivor of the Seven Days is under His protection:
13 Cain said to the Lord, “My punishment is more than I can bear. 14 Today you are driving me from the land, and I will be hidden from your presence; I will be a restless wanderer on the earth, and whoever finds me will kill me.”
15 But the Lord said to him, “Not so[s]; anyone who kills Cain will suffer vengeance seven times over.” Then the Lord put a mark on Cain so that no one who found him would kill him. 16 So Cain went out from the Lord’s presence and lived in the land of Nod, ”the wanderer” to the east of Eden.
Cain “makes love to his wife” AKA the Torah, and gives birth to Enoch: 
17 Cain made love to his wife, and she became pregnant and gave birth to Enoch “disciplined, well trained” . Cain was then building a city, and he named it after his son Enoch. 18 To Enoch was born Irad “city of fugitives from ignorance” , and Irad was the father of Mehujael “destroyed by God”, and Mehujael was the father of Methushael, “man of God” and Methushael was the father of Lamech “strong man for humiliation”. 
19 Lamech married two women, one named Adah “ornament”  and the other Zillah “shadow”. 20 Adah gave birth to Jabal “to follow a course” ; he was the father of those who live in tents and raise livestock. 
21 His brother’s name was Jubal “flow maker”; he was the father of all who play stringed instruments and pipes. 22 Zillah also had a son, Tubal-Cain , who forged all kinds of tools out of[u] bronze “intelligence, insightful” and iron, ruff. Tubal-Cain’s “leader of the world’s economy” sister was Naamah. “sweet, pleasant.” 
The tantra so far is: 
“Leadership begins with the tilling of the mind. Vanity leads to bloodshed. Face east, where the sun rises to grow out of vanity, and enter the city of discipline. There fugitives from the innocence that is destroyed by God will become men of God, will become strong after their humiliation [AKA fish filleted].
To intercourse with beauty is to follow the course. To follow the shadow leads to humiliation. To follow the course is to build tents - temples within the hearts of men, and raise livestock, Godly generations, and teach them to harmonize as different instruments in a band. This takes place by honing the spiritual self that resides inside dicks with assholes. Lead them into a glowing global economy and they will be sweet and pleasant.” 
23 Lamech said to his wives,
“Adah and Zillah, listen to me;    wives of Lamech, hear my words. I have killed a man for wounding me,    a young man for injuring me. 24 If Cain is avenged seven times,    then Lamech seventy-seven times.”
=Lamech decided to grow up.
25 Adam made love to his wife again, and she gave birth to a son and named him Seth,[v] “the appointed one, the foundation” saying, “God has granted me another child in place of Abel, since Cain killed him.” 26 Seth also had a son, and he named him Enosh. “a man, weak but sociable.” 
At that time people began to call on[w] the name of the Lord.
“The foundation of man takes place after he stops resounding upon himself and calls instead upon the Name of God.” 
=thou shalt not make graven images...a preview!
5 This is the written account of Adam’s family line.
When God created mankind, he made them in the likeness of God. 2 He created them male and female and blessed them. And he named them “Mankind”[x] when they were created.
3 When Adam had lived 130 years, he had a son in his own likeness, in his own image; and he named him Seth. 4 After Seth was born, Adam lived 800 years and had other sons and daughters. 5 Altogether, Adam lived a total of 930 years, and then he died.
6 When Seth had lived 105 years, he became the father[y] of Enosh. 7 After he became the father of Enosh, Seth lived 807 years and had other sons and daughters. 8 Altogether, Seth lived a total of 912 years, and then he died.
9 When Enosh had lived 90 years, he became the father of Kenan. 10 After he became the father of Kenan “the composer”, Enosh lived 815 years and had other sons and daughters. 11 Altogether, Enosh lived a total of 905 years, and then he died.
12 When Kenan had lived 70 years, he became the father of Mahalalel “praise of God” 13 After he became the father of Mahalalel, Kenan lived 840 years and had other sons and daughters. 14 Altogether, Kenan lived a total of 910 years, and then he died.
15 When Mahalalel had lived 65 years, he became the father of Jared. 16 After he became the father of Jared, Mahalalel lived 830 years and had other sons and daughters. 17 Altogether, Mahalalel lived a total of 895 years, and then he died.
18 When Jared “descent” had lived 162 years, he became the father of Enoch. 19 After he became the father of Enoch, Jared lived 800 years and had other sons and daughters. 20 Altogether, Jared lived a total of 962 years, and then he died.
21 When Enoch had lived 65 years, he became the father of Methuselah” When he is dead it will be sent, a man of the javelin”. 22 After he became the father of Methuselah, Enoch walked faithfully with God 300 years and had other sons and daughters. 23 Altogether, Enoch lived a total of 365 years. 24 Enoch walked faithfully with God; then he was no more, because God took him away.
25 When Methuselah had lived 187 years, he became the father of Lamech. 26 After he became the father of Lamech “strong man”, Methuselah lived 782 years and had other sons and daughters. 27 Altogether, Methuselah lived a total of 969 years, and then he died.
28 When Lamech had lived 182 years, he had a son. 29 He named him Noah ‘to comfort, to rest” [z] and said, “He will comfort us in the labor and painful toil of our hands caused by the ground the Lord has cursed.” 30 After Noah was born, Lamech lived 595 years and had other sons and daughters. 31 Altogether, Lamech lived a total of 777 years, and then he died.
32 After Noah was 500 years old, he became the father of Shem “conscious knowledge of the whole of creation”, Ham “hot, a protective wall” and Japheth “formless expansion.”
= “God created mankind in His Likeness. He made them complementary, one on the left, on the right, one for yesterday, one for today, one for east and west, north and south. One for the old, one for the new. 
Through brilliance, a foundation was born. It was called mankind. It was an early mankind, weak, but with tremendous potential. By composing new ideas and efforts, man was able to grow and please God. "
-> Every time we perform work and it solves a problem or brings happiness to the world, it is commemorated during Shabbat.
Each Shabbat celebration brings us closer and closer to the end of what is called an Epoch.
Epochs are the times between Eden and the end of the road in Hebron, the legendary city. When everyone arrives in Hebron the Epoch will close and something called Moshiach- the end of universal ineptitude on earth- will take place.
Years in the Torah are the spans of time between Kruvim, or the angels of yesterday and tomorrow; they define what is called a Day of Yah, or a "year" of human life. Every Kruvim we spend is supposed to count us down to the arrival of universal cosmic enlightenment in the presence of the God of Israel, a phenomenon called Moshiach, the universal bringing of all messianic tendencies to bear.
Noah's intervention, which created a protective wall between the formlessness of violence and corruption and all conscious knowledge was, according to the Torah 500 of 6,000 years needed for Moshiach to occur. The death of Abel at Cain's hands got us off to a good start.

When God created mankind, he made them in the likeness of God. 2 He created them male and female and blessed them. And he named them “Mankind”[x] when they were created.
3 When Adam had lived 130 years*, he had a son in his own likeness, in his own image; and he named him Seth "the appointed one, the foundation."  4 After Seth was born, Adam lived 800 years and had other sons and daughters. 5 Altogether, Adam lived a total of 930 years, and then he died.

= “God created mankind in His Likeness. He made them complementary, one on the left, on the right, one for yesterday, one for today, one for east and west, north and south. One for the old, one for the new. 
Through brilliance, a foundation was born. It was called mankind. It was an early mankind, weak, but with tremendous potential. By composing new ideas and efforts, man was able to grow and please God. 
There was descent into darkness but discipline caused strength to return. The was a great respite, conscious knowledge of the creation protected the world and there was expansion of human ingenuity in every direction.” 
So here right at the beginning of the Torah is the cause for all that ails humanity=vanity, the urge to flaunt oneself far beyond one’s actual merits, to make claims and behave as if one is smarter even than God and endowed with His privileges. 
What does God say about this? Guess again.
*As far as the sacred numerology in the Torah goes I suspect the number of years and numbers of persons in a generation are similar codes to phone numbers for Days, Decrees, Skills, Tribes, Clans, anything in a list.
Lamech, for example, the Strong Man lived for 777 years. A year is a "recurring Jewish phenomenon that completes a simple object lesson." Each one is a step towards the top of the mountain where awaits an Audience with God.
The Torah compresses these object lesson years into tantras. This one is called Lamech, a strong man who is humiliation proof. A Lamech has evolved past the 7 Days, follows the 7 Laws of Noah, and is finally resting on the Shabbat after he has eradicated the Seven Extermination Nations, the Hittites, Girgashites, Amorites, Canaanites, Perizzites, Hivites, and Jebusites.
To complete the Object Lesson in this Parsha, achieve the Seven Days and cross over the Kruvim through the Sacrament of Shabbat, we must analyze the tension between the Seven Exterminators vs. the Seven Laws of Noah:
Hittites: Fearsome, causes a lack of willpower.
Girgashites: To quarrel.
Amorites: Gossipers.
Canaanites: To unite, to bundle.
Perizzites: To attack, to pierce the border with a spear. Spears are connected to the mind by the arm, so to disarm a man and likewise end the threat of his spear is the object of combat with a big dick like a Perizzite.
Hivites: Tent villager, unimposing, weak, untrained, submissive.
Jebusites: Tramplers. Bullboys, in other words.
The Seven Laws of Noah are:
Concerning adjudication (dinim), generally thought of as the Mishpatim.
Concerning idolatry (avodah zarah) “Avodah Zarah” literally means “strange worship,” the worship of deities other than the God of Israel. The term has also been translated accurately (albeit nonliterally) as “forbidden worship” and “idolatry.” Avodah Zarah tractates are found in the Mishnah.
Concerning blasphemy (qilelat ha-Shem) "Do not profane the name of God or the Jewish Identity."
Concerning sexual immorality (gilui arayot) "What emerges is a moral discipline that is strict, yet highly sensitive to the human condition; one that affirms the joyfulness of the sexual experience, but insists that it express itself in controlled circumstances; and one that never deprecates marriage and at every opportunity deplores monastic asceticism."
Concerning blood-shed (shefikhut damim) "to refrain from retribution and revenge."
Concerning robbery (gezel) "to not avoid withholding monies owed."
Concerning a limb torn from a living animal (ever min ha-hay): Deuteronomy 12:23 states "and thou shalt not eat the life with the flesh."
= the Evil Personal Jesus.
Tumblr media
By combining one's knowledge and practices of the Seven Laws of Noah, interrupting the cultural advances of the Seven Extermination Nations is to complete the Torah Tantra of Lamech, "The Humiliation-Proof Man" AKA The Seven Days' Journey from Adam to Noah.

Wickedness in the World.
Tumblr media
6 When human beings began to increase in number on the earth and daughters were born to them, 2 the sons of God saw that the daughters of humans were beautiful, and they married any of them they chose. 3 Then the Lord said, “My Spirit will not contend with[aa] humans forever, for they are mortal[ab]; their days will be a hundred and twenty years.”
=12 Tribes x 10 Decrees=120 "object lessons."
4 The Nephilim “long sighted” were on the earth in those days—and also afterward—when the sons of God went to the daughters of humans and had children by them. 
They were the heroes of old, men of renown.
5 The Lord saw how great the wickedness of the human race had become on the earth, and that every inclination of the thoughts of the human heart was only evil all the time. 6 The Lord regretted that he had made human beings on the earth, and his heart was deeply troubled. 7 So the Lord said, “I will wipe from the face of the earth the human race I have created—and with them the animals, the birds and the creatures that move along the ground—for I regret that I have made them.” 8 But Noah found favor in the eyes of the Lord.
=Propitiators of peace on earth, the protectors find favor with God. 
So here right at the beginning of the Torah is the cause for all that ails humanity=vanity, the urge to flaunt oneself far beyond one’s actual merits, to make claims and behave as if one is smarter even than God and endowed with His privileges. 
What does God say about this? Guess again.
Thus Ends Parsha Bereshit, "the Instruction in the Meaning of Things", the first of fifty-four contained in the Holy Torah.

2. Parsha Noach. "The Respite."
Tumblr media
In Parsha 1, called Bereshit, we discovered God is trying to vault Himself and us from a descent into darkness caused by vanity, ignorance, corruption, license, all the hallmarks of an immature, spoiled, and lawless culture. 
The soul, which is supposed to be enraptured by creation is housed in Eden. There it is fed the Nectar of Sentience by the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil found at the center of the universe.
How we approach that Tree is pivotal. Adam and Eve, “soil and symbiosis” make one mistake, Abel, but they fix it with Cain and Seth and from them, civilization, a brilliant and remarkable one, called Erech, "Long Life and Health" springs forth. 
As we see later things go well, and then they don’t.
Here begins Parsha 2, “the Respite.” 
Noah and the Flood
9 These are the generations of Noah. Noah was a righteous man, blameless in his generation. Noah walked with God. 10 And Noah had three sons, Shem "conscious knowledge of the entire creation", Ham "wall of fire", and Japheth "formless expansion".
= “Reside behind the Wall of Fire , vaulting the Infinite Knowledge, and civilization will be boundless.” 
The Torah “the wall of fire” also vaults Israel from Egypt during the flight.
In the real world the wall is our conscience. It protects others from our "idiosyncracies". The Wall is first fueled and lit by our parents and teachers through the setting of rules and examples, all exist in anticipation of transgression.
Externally the Wall of Fire is Rule of Law.
11 Now the earth was corrupt in God's sight, and the earth was filled with violence. 12 And God saw the earth, and behold, it was corrupt, for all flesh had corrupted their way on the earth. 13 And God said to Noah, “I have determined to make an end of all flesh,[a] for the earth is filled with violence through them. Behold, I will destroy them with the earth. 
Through Noach, the Torah stages a countercultural campaign of non-violence. Here is the plan: 
14 Make yourself an ark of gopher wood.[b] Make rooms in the ark, and cover it inside and out with pitch. 15 This is how you are to make it: the length of the ark 300 cubits,[c] its breadth 50 cubits, and its height 30 cubits. 16 Make a roof[d] for the ark, and finish it to a cubit above, and set the door of the ark in its side. Make it with lower, second, and third decks. 
->Three Decks are three levels, Three Days or the Three Sons of Noah.
17 For behold, I will bring a flood of waters upon the earth to destroy all flesh in which is the breath of life under heaven. Everything that is on the earth shall die. 18 But I will establish my covenant with you, and you shall come into the ark, you, your sons, your wife, and your sons' wives with you. 
=Like Menorah; one Base plus six branches, three male, three female= the 7 Days.
-> Recall death under the water means something will have to face itself on the surface and drown in the truth of what it sees. The result and also the survival tactic in the Torah is called "an ark", a "promise."
The Ark shows up a few times in the Torah. It is the Vault God uses to separate chaos from Order, light from darkness, humanity from anarchy. The first time we see it is made of gopher wood.
The word gopher wood is the same as the word “Kippur” which means “build yourself a vessel of atonement.” Read this: 
“God told Noah to take trees from the area of the Ararat mountains [a]…These are in the east of Turkey toward Baghdad [b]…The wood is very strong and water resistant…Some say this is balsa wood, which is very light and buoyant. [c]” [7]
“…you shall pitch it inside and out with pitch (וכפרת אתה מבית ומחוץ בכפר).”
The Ark was sealed with pitch. [8] In Hebrew, “pitch” is “כפר” — k-f-r. In the form of a noun, “ko-fehr” rhymes with “go-fehr,” but of greater note: It’s the same root as “ki-pur” — “atonement;” as in Yom Kipur. What drash — homiletic lesson — might be drawn from the fact that the pitch, or tar, that kept out the flood-waters is linguistically related to “atonement” — which “saves” us from the inevitable consequences of our own actions?
-From https://rabbielimallon.wordpress.com/2013/10/08/10-8-13/
19 And of every living thing of all flesh, you shall bring two of every sort into the ark to keep them alive with you. They shall be male and female. 20 Of the birds according to their kinds, and of the animals according to their kinds, of every creeping thing of the ground, according to its kind, two of every sort shall come in to you to keep them alive. 
21 Also take with you every sort of food that is eaten, and store it up. It shall serve as food for you and for them.” 22 Noah did this; he did all that God commanded him.
God says two of every kind and every sort of food shall be taken up in to you. Food is always sacramental, it represents the things we expose ourselves to that build up or desecrate the Self. 
God’s commandment to Noah to gather and care for samples of every living thing on the earth is Sacramental because it is discussed in scripture- He is telling us to pay attention to the differences between care and feeding of life on earth vs. the wanton destruction of it by the Seven Exterminators.
7 Then the Lord said to Noah, “Go into the ark, you and all your household, for I have seen that you are righteous before me in this generation. 2 Take with you seven pairs of all clean animals,[e] the male and his mate, and a pair of the animals that are not clean, the male and his mate, 3 and seven pairs[f] of the birds of the heavens also, male and female, to keep their offspring alive on the face of all the earth. 
4 For in seven days I will send rain on the earth forty days and forty nights, and every living thing[g] that I have made I will blot out from the face of the ground.” 5 And Noah did all that the Lord had commanded him.
So, it’s not really two by two but seven by seven for everything. Sevens represent observances we must do every day. Every day has clean and unclean animals one must decide between.
Will our 40 Days at sea with the Seven Levels reveal A Man of Respite or an Exterminator when the Ark is beached on the slopes of Ararat?
All violence, all sin, all corruption and queer things that infect society, start when the organs of reproduction wake up; it is also when the intellect starts to assume its full discriminative power. 
When this experience is derelict it is called the Flood, when used to heighten discretion, it reveals the nature of God vs. the nature of the Deep. The Ark contains all we need to stay afloat and see the surface of the water where contact with God is always possible.
6 Noah was six hundred years old when the flood of waters came upon the earth. 7 And Noah and his sons and his wife and his sons' wives with him went into the ark to escape the waters of the flood. 
8 Of clean animals, and of animals that are not clean, and of birds, and of everything that creeps on the ground, 9 two and two, male and female, went into the ark with Noah, as God had commanded Noah. 10 And after seven days the waters of the flood came upon the earth.
11 In the six hundredth year of Noah's life, in the second month, on the seventeenth day of the month, on that day all the fountains of the great deep burst forth, and the windows of the heavens were opened. 
12 And rain fell upon the earth forty days and forty nights. 13 On the very same day Noah and his sons, Shem "renown" and Ham "protective wall from fire" and Japheth, "formless expansion" and Noah's wife and the three wives of his sons with them entered the ark,
We abhor life-giving rain, until it stops then we can return to the outside world. Rain is an exercise the mind and self must undertake if there is to be as the Tantra says "Respite and protection from the fire, opportunities for growth and renown."
If God did not send rain, the world would not have thought of widespread manslaughter as criminal as it does today.
 14 they and every beast, according to its kind, and all the livestock according to their kinds, and every creeping thing that creeps on the earth, according to its kind, and every bird, according to its kind, every winged creature.
 15 They went into the ark with Noah, two and two of all flesh in which there was the breath of life. 16 And those that entered, male and female of all flesh, went in as God had commanded him. And the Lord shut him in.
-> Here is more of that “vaulting”. Noah is in a space, behind the Wall of Fire that separates him, his three sons and their wives from the violence that has saturated soil, AKA infected mankind. Soil, as we will learn is soft, or stony. 
Soft soil is planted with the Virtues or has weeds in it. The weeds are always uprooted. 
Stony soil is hardness of heart or represents the Ephod, the successful imprint of the Torah upon the essential being of an uncivilized man and transformed him into a “sweetheart” a man with a glowing reputation. 
The fact the Flood covered the mountain, which we will also see is where God gathers men to Himself so they can see the sun, is another sign rampant violence on the surface of the earth is anathema to God’s Plan for this world. 
God acknowledges ridding the world of violent urges and the men who bring them to fruition is not going to be easy- it is a continuous process till the Flood recedes...note how the Ark, floats on the surface of the waters, just as the Spirit of God In the Beginning. Our visage will be seen with it and His within us when we refuse to be a part of a violent world: 
17 The flood continued forty days on the earth. The waters increased and bore up the ark, and it rose high above the earth. 18 The waters prevailed and increased greatly on the earth, and the ark floated on the face of the waters. 
19 And the waters prevailed so mightily on the earth that all the high mountains under the whole heaven were covered. 20 The waters prevailed above the mountains, covering them fifteen cubits[h] deep. 
21 And all flesh died that moved on the earth, birds, livestock, beasts, all swarming creatures that swarm on the earth, and all mankind. 
22 Everything on the dry land in whose nostrils was the breath of life died. 23 He blotted out every living thing that was on the face of the ground, man and animals and creeping things and birds of the heavens. They were blotted out from the earth. Only Noah was left, and those who were with him in the ark. 24 And the waters prevailed on the earth 150 days.
Forty days (AKA age 40) is how long it takes to become an adult. The Seven adults on the ark have committed to God to take the kids to safety from a violent world and teach them another way. Does it work? Not for long.
What happens? Inexperience in the government called Lot, the Nephew of Abraham.

Parsha Noach Continues. The Flood Subsides.
Tumblr media
8 But God remembered Noah and all the beasts and all the livestock that were with him in the ark. And God made a wind blow over the earth, and the waters subsided. 2 The fountains of the deep and the windows of the heavens were closed, the rain from the heavens was restrained, 3 and the waters receded from the earth continually. At the end of 150 days the waters had abated, 
Winds are remove locusts and flies and gnats, sinful thoughts from the mind and make it clear blue again. The Fountains in the Deep are the darkness of life but not life itself. When the valves of these are turned down and off during Respite, Shabbat, rebirth is achieved.
Wine and challah "the tops of the mountain" are served to remind us of all the good things that civilization can do when it is not adrift on the surface of the Deep, hiding out of fear from itself:
4 and in the seventh month (Tishrei, "the beginning"), on the seventeenth day of the month (7 days Pe and Yud, the tenth= the Mouth of the Jew=), the ark came to rest on the mountains of Ararat. 5 And the waters continued to abate until the tenth month; in the tenth month, on the first day of the month, the tops of the mountains were seen.
The number 150 refers to Psalm 150 which praises God in the firmament which makes sense within the context of Parsha Noach.
1. Praise the Lord! Praise God in His holiness; praise Him in the firmament of His strength.
2. Praise Him for His mighty acts; praise Him according to His abundant greatness.
3. Praise Him with the call of the shofar; praise Him with harp and lyre.
4. Praise Him with timbrel and dance; praise Him with stringed instruments and flute.
5. Praise Him with resounding cymbals; praise Him with clanging cymbals.
Forty Days is the number it took for Moses to transcribe the Torah on Sinai, to memorize it and become a Kedosh. The Talmud says this is the amount of time it takes for a zygote to begin to resemble a human being, so we carry this number forward when discussing the journey from a knish, a kind of fried meat pie, into a Kedosh, a sacred being.
Whether you are in the womb or acting like it, the Torah says it takes forty days to reinstate Respite after an incident like the ones that caused the Flood and the Ark to come to rest upon Ararat.
Ararat is not a Hebrew word but if we were to cobble any definition at all together, it would be arar= the curse, retet= panic, trembling, rata= to wring out. 
If we blur it all together with Noah (respite) the Ark, (testimony) came rest on the place “the curse was wrung out”=
“Through the Testimony, the Torah, the mind comes to rest, it is wrung free of curses.” 
6 At the end of forty days Noah opened the window of the ark that he had made 7 and sent forth a raven. It went to and fro until the waters were dried up from the earth. 
Tumblr media
8 Then he sent forth a dove from him, to see if the waters had subsided from the face of the ground. 
9 But the dove found no place to set her foot, and she returned to him to the ark, for the waters were still on the face of the whole earth. So he put out his hand and took her and brought her into the ark with him. 
10 He waited another seven days, and again he sent forth the dove out of the ark. 
11 And the dove came back to him in the evening, and behold, in her mouth was a freshly plucked olive leaf. So Noah knew that the waters had subsided from the earth. 
12 Then he waited another seven days and sent forth the dove, and she did not return to him anymore.
Ravens in Judaism are the skeezers. They fuck their mates, make babies and fly the coop! The fact the Raven returned to the Ark after given a chance to skeez out is a sign the Forty Days inside the Vault were having their effect. 
Still, foolhardy contact with the outside world was curtailed until the more loyal and fully trainable dove returned with signs it was ready to be at peace with the world. 
Even though we love our lovey doveys, even they must be released and a full on male boy human is what must emerge from the study of the Torah, ready to face a world that is probably going to be contingent...willing to take its chances. 
13 In the six hundred and first year, in the first month, the first day of the month, the waters were dried from off the earth. And Noah removed the covering of the ark and looked, and behold, the face of the ground was dry. 14 In the second month, on the twenty-seventh day of the month, the earth had dried out. 
15 Then God said to Noah, 16 “Go out from the ark, you and your wife, and your sons and your sons' wives with you. 17 Bring out with you every living thing that is with you of all flesh—birds and animals and every creeping thing that creeps on the earth—that they may swarm on the earth, and be fruitful and multiply on the earth.” 18 So Noah went out, and his sons and his wife and his sons' wives with him. 19 Every beast, every creeping thing, and every bird, everything that moves on the earth, went out by families from the ark.
The departure from the Ark in families does not refer to the animal kingdom or the literal offspring of the unions on board. We will find out in a few stanzas what is born when Civilization Without Boundaries is vaulted all the way around by the Fire of Knowledge.
God's Covenant with Noah
20 Then Noah built an altar to the Lord and took some of every clean animal and some of every clean bird and offered burnt offerings on the altar. 21 And when the Lord smelled the pleasing aroma, the Lord said in his heart, “I will never again curse[i] the ground because of man, for the intention of man's heart is evil from his youth. Neither will I ever again strike down every living creature as I have done. 22 While the earth remains, seedtime and harvest, cold and heat, summer and winter, day and night, shall not cease.”
9 And God blessed Noah and his sons and said to them, “Be fruitful and multiply and fill the earth. 2 The fear of you and the dread of you shall be upon every beast of the earth and upon every bird of the heavens, upon everything that creeps on the ground and all the fish of the sea. Into your hand they are delivered. 3 Every moving thing that lives shall be food for you. And as I gave you the green plants, I give you everything. 4 But you shall not eat flesh with its life, that is, its blood. 5 And for your lifeblood I will require a reckoning: from every beast I will require it and from man. From his fellow man I will require a reckoning for the life of man.
6 “Whoever sheds the blood of man,    by man shall his blood be shed, for God made man in his own image.
7 And you,[j] be fruitful and multiply, increase greatly on the earth and multiply in it.”
The Altar is where we make a promise to God and the world not war upon either. The offering of the clean animals to God is to the service of this, the founding principal of the Torah and also of civilization. 
The mention of clean animals coming off the Ark when it hits dry land is a huge clue God wants the entire Torah consumed  AND PRACTICED AS IF SECOND NATURE before the miracle of manhood can be realized. 
The Torah says over and over Realization takes place over “generations”, a cumulative approach to understanding the importance of life on earth, a a process that must absolutely be the product of non-interference by God. 
We are seeing active and flagrant intercession by God in this era, a sign as in ancient times, we are proving incapable of understanding the Torah without God’s direct supervision, and this is and always has been a last resort: 
8 Then God said to Noah and to his sons with him, 9 “Behold, I establish my covenant with you and your offspring after you, 10 and with every living creature that is with you, the birds, the livestock, and every beast of the earth with you, as many as came out of the ark; it is for every beast of the earth. 
11 I establish my covenant with you, that never again shall all flesh be cut off by the waters of the flood, and never again shall there be a flood to destroy the earth.” 
12 And God said, “This is the sign of the covenant that I make between me and you and every living creature that is with you, for all future generations: 13 I have set my bow in the cloud, and it shall be a sign of the covenant between me and the earth. 
14 When I bring clouds over the earth and the bow is seen in the clouds, 15 I will remember my covenant that is between me and you and every living creature of all flesh. And the waters shall never again become a flood to destroy all flesh. 
16 When the bow is in the clouds, I will see it and remember the everlasting covenant between God and every living creature of all flesh that is on the earth.” 17 God said to Noah, “This is the sign of the covenant that I have established between me and all flesh that is on the earth.”
The Bow is the strength to stand up for what is right.
"Strengthen(Bow) and release(arrow) from the heart within the strength of Hashem in order to fight for the right things in our lives."
God commits to using His Bow and Arrow instead of the Flood to discipline us going forward. In spite of this, God does not keep this promise. He has more than a few tantrums after this. Why would God make a vow not to vent His wrath on us and then break it? 
The answer is we aren't following the Instructions, and as is seen in the Sojourn, this means God can resort to any kind of punishment necessary to prune the human race of any violent and oppressive persons, regimes, and ideals that are holding it back.
As the Torah says, "In the Beginning, out of the Mouth of the Jew comes this idea that mankind can attain to a lifetime free of violence and its causes."
This vision of mankind, concocted between God and the Jew during the earliest of times is the most important thing that has ever happened.

Parsha Noach, Conclusion.
Tumblr media
Noah's Descendants
18 The sons of Noah who went forth from the ark were Shem, Ham, and Japheth. (Ham was the father of Canaan.) 19 These three were the sons of Noah, and from these the people of the whole earth were dispersed.[k]
Noah "Respite from Violence" + Na'Amah "to be sweet or pleasant" is to beget:
Shem= Conscious knowledge of the whole of creation.
Ham= the Wall of Fire.
Japheth= Formless Expansion.
Canaan= International Synchronicity.
The Torah Tantra of the Descendants of Noah is therefore:
"To covenant with God is to disperse the knowledge of the Torah, which preserves world peace from savagery like a wall of fire."
20 Noah began to be a man of the soil, and he planted a vineyard.[l]21 He drank of the wine and became drunk and lay uncovered in his tent. 22 And Ham “Fire”, the father of Canaan “humility” , saw the nakedness of his father and told his two brothers outside. 
23 Then Shem “total knowledge” and Japheth “boundless civlization” took a garment, laid it on both their shoulders, and walked backward and covered the nakedness of their father. Their faces were turned backward, and they did not see their father's nakedness. 24 When Noah awoke from his wine and knew what his youngest son had done to him, 25 he said,
“Cursed be Canaan; a servant of servants shall he be to his brothers.”
26 He also said, “Blessed be the Lord, the God of Shem;    and let Canaan be his servant. 27 May God enlarge Japheth,[m]    and let him dwell in the tents of Shem,  and let Canaan be his servant.”
Noah drank wine, a sign large numbers of men are cooperating, which we know took place because Noah tilled the “soil” and planted vines. He exposed himself in his tent, meaning he was without pride before God in his heart. 
Canaan, “the lowly” enters the tent and sees this absence of pride and reacts; God says he must be a servant to the servants: 
“The God of Supreme Knowledge, Knowledge of All Things, must be served without pride. 
May Civilization prosper without end, may His servants grow in intelligence and fulfill its purposes.” 
28 After the flood Noah lived 350 years. 29 All the days of Noah were 950 years, and he died.
Nations Descended from Noah
10 These are the generations of the sons of Noah, Shem, Ham, and Japheth. Sons were born to them after the flood.
2 The sons of Japheth “boundless civilization”: 
Gomer (completion), Magog (on the roof), Madai Measured By Yah, My Measure(ment)Out Of The Abundance Of, As Often As ), Javan “mire, mud, man) , Tubal (world economy), Meshech (drawn out), and Tiras (moisturizer= what is desired).  
“On the Roof of Ararat, the Curse was completely drawn out, and the abundance of civilization was given to man to satisfy his desires.” 
3 The sons of Gomer: Ashkenaz “scattered fire”, Riphath “grain crushers”, and Togarmah “bone breaker”. 
“The knowledge (from the Ark) was taught, and the lust for violence ended.” 
*The bone breaking thing means your lost your wood after the spooj comes out. Bone breaker makes very good nice date. 
4 The sons of Javan: Elishah (God supports), Tarshish (his excellency), Kittim (pounders, like a hammer on gold), and Dodanim (leaders). 5 From these the coastland peoples spread in their lands, each with his own language, by their clans, in their nations.
“The sons of men, whom God supports, pound on the gold to make excellent leaders.” 
6 The sons of Ham: Cush (Ethiopia), Egypt (temple of Ptah), Put (“to give” specifically to give happiness) , and Canaan (place of the low). 7 The sons of Cush: Seba (drunkard), Havilah (circling, to create a fort), Sabtah (breaking through the circle), Raamah (thundering), and Sabteca (beating). The sons of Raamah: Sheba (the seven oaths) and Dedan (leading gently). 
“Through the power of speech, the Fire, God gives happiness to the humble. By speaking of the Seven Oaths, the Drunkard, Noah,  broke through the circle, defeated the violent, and led the gentlemen to peace.” 
*Noah opens a window in the Ark, I think that is what is meant by breaking through. 
8 Cush fathered Nimrod “the rebel”; he was the first on earth to be a mighty man.[n]9 He was a mighty hunter before the Lord. Therefore it is said, “Like Nimrod a mighty hunter before the Lord.” 10 The beginning of his kingdom was Babel “the gate of God”, Erech (length), Accad (to bake, to make glow), and Calneh (center of the world, beautifying), in the land of Shinar (that which is young and growls!).
“Men of Might hunt at length for the gate of God, where the Glowing makes the young man’s vessel bake and glow until he growls.” 
  11 From that land he went into Assyria (level, plain, happy) and built Nineveh (the fish place, the seat of government), Rehoboth-Ir, (wide city) Calah (like new) , and 12 Resen (head of a spring) between Nineveh and Calah; that is the great city. 
“Men who mature and glow these make new the seat of government and expand its horizons like the head of a spring contributes fresh water to a river. They are the antidote of the propaganda that causes the Flood of Violence.” 
13 Egypt fathered Ludim (from the Tree or standing pool), Anamim (responding water), Lehabim (flaming), Naphtuhim (engraver) , 14 Pathrusim (southland), Casluhim (a mental invertebrate), and Caphtorim (the crowned).
“The power of speech produces the water needed to crown the dumbass, engraving the knowledge of the Southern Fire on him, giving him a brain.”
15 Canaan fathered Sidon (hunting place) his firstborn and Heth (terror), 16 and the Jebusites (to trample down) , the Amorites (gossipers), the Girgashites (dwellers in clay), 17 the Hivites (tent villagers) , the Arkites, (fugitives, gnawers) the Sinites (thorn bush), 18 the Arvadites (wanderers), the Zemarites (wooly), and the Hamathites (people of hotness). Afterward the clans of the Canaanites dispersed. 
“The servants, the most humble before God, hunted down the gossipers, the self-masturbators, liars, the corrupt, the unshaven, wild, and violent, always hot with rage and trampled them.” 
19 And the territory of the Canaanites extended from Sidon in the direction of Gerar (sojourning) as far as Gaza (strong), and in the direction of Sodom (to burn) Gomorrah (people who shoot arrows tyrants), Admah (red earth, arable soil), and Zeboiim (gazelles), as far as Lasha (gaped at, delighted). 
20 These are the sons of Ham, by their clans, their languages, their lands, and their nations.
“The servants of God overpower those consumed by the lust for power, who work for tyrants, using the Fire free the citizens of oppressed nations and create herds of happy, delighted little gazelles!”
21 To Shem (supreme knowledge) also, the father of all the children of Eber (who has passed over), the elder brother of Japheth (boundless civilization), children were born. 
22 The sons of Shem (fame, renown): Elam (hidden),  Asshur (level, happy, just), Arpachshad= chesed= mercy, Lud (standing water), and Aram (high citadel). 
“The supreme knowledge, hidden within the happy, balanced, just and merciful is the standing water that reflects the Most High.” 
= The mirror image of a flood of violence. 
The God of Israel is not a "drowned God" but a God of Light. He will not be seen from under a sea of rage and retribution.
23 The sons of Aram: Uz (inner strength), Hul (writhing circle), Gether (winepress of vision), and Mash (drawn out). 
“Through contemplation and strength of will, the writhing mind is pressed and made to draw out the essence of the Most High.” 
24 Arpachshad (bordered by mercy) fathered Shelah (the mission); and Shelah fathered Eber (the region beyond). 25 To Eber were born two sons: the name of the one was Peleg (divided canal),[p] for in his days the earth was divided, and his brother's name was Joktan (he will be small) . 
“Through mercy the mission can reach the farthest regions, and the divided earth can became one.” 
26 Joktan fathered Almodad (immeasurable is how God loves!), Sheleph (draw out), Hazarmaveth (village of death), Jerah (the moon), 27 Hadoram (thunder is exalted), Uzal (vanish), Diklah (palm tree), 28 Obal (not clouded), Abimael (God is father), Sheba (seven oaths), 29 Ophir (mark of wealth), Havilah (the burning fort), and Jobab (Yah is father); all these were the sons of Joktan (he will be small). 
“The unified world is loved by God without measure. Those who follow His Voice, the Exalted Thunder will be drawn forth from the village of the damned, and their sins, their clouded judgement will vanish. If they swear the Seven Oaths, they will bear the mark of wealth, live under the Tallest Date Palm, which resides behind the Wall of Fire, within the Burning Fort.”
30 The territory in which they lived extended from Mesha (retreat or depart) in the direction of Sephar (the census) to the hill country of the east. 
31 These are the sons of Shem, by their clans, their languages, their lands, and their nations.
32 These are the clans of the sons of Noah, according to their genealogies, in their nations, and from these the nations spread abroad on the earth after the flood.
“To face east, towards the rising sun, to grow up, evolve, depart from the masses and reach for the Knowledge of the Supreme, is to become a part of the Effort to create an effortless peace all around the world.”
The Tower of Babel
11 Now the whole earth had one language and the same words. 2 And as people migrated from the east, they found a plain in the land of Shinar (that which is young and growls!) and settled there. 3 And they said to one another, “Come, let us make bricks, and burn them thoroughly.” And they had brick for stone, and bitumen for mortar.
 4 Then they said, “Come, let us build ourselves a city and a tower with its top in the heavens, and let us make a name for ourselves, lest we be dispersed over the face of the whole earth.” 
5 And the Lord came down to see the city and the tower, which the children of man had built. 6 And the Lord said, “Behold, they are one people, and they have all one language, and this is only the beginning of what they will do. And nothing that they propose to do will now be impossible for them. 
7 Come, let us go down and there confuse their language, so that they may not understand one another's speech.” 
8 So the Lord dispersed them from there over the face of all the earth, and they left off building the city. 9 Therefore its name was called Babel, (through production, one becomes anointed) because there the Lord confused[q] the language of all the earth. And from there the Lord dispersed them over the face of all the earth.
If Torah suggests any one thing will cause the downfall of civilization it is homogeneity. Especially when an Abel is involved and wants everyone to look, think, speak and act like he does, so “he can make a name for himself.”
As with all things phallic in the Torah, the Tower of Babel "that which saturates with production" is a gigantic penis. Male boys don't begin appreciate the lesson above until they pass puberty and are able to learn and process language from a cognitive rather than Pavlovian perspective.
Compared to what happened when Adam and Eve played with the serpent around the Tree in the Garden, and got them cast out, what happens around the Tower is actually beneficial.
Negotiating the differences between thoughts, emotions, appearances and reality using words, numbers, expressions and language in a mature, thoughtful and articulate manner is called Babel "God's Gate". To own or possess a working Tower of Babel is to show competency in the former which lie beyond the Gate.
Shem's Descendants
10 These are the generations of Shem (complete knowledge) . When Shem was 100 years old, he fathered Arpachshad- Chesed two years after the flood. 11 And Shem lived after he fathered Arpachshad 500 years and had other sons and daughters.
12 When Arpachshad had lived 35 years, he fathered Shelah. 13 And Arpachshad lived after he fathered Shelah 403 years and had other sons and daughters.
14 When Shelah had lived 30 years, he fathered Eber. 15 And Shelah lived after he fathered Eber 403 years and had other sons and daughters.
16 When Eber had lived 34 years, he fathered Peleg. 17 And Eber lived after he fathered Peleg 430 years and had other sons and daughters.
18 When Peleg had lived 30 years, he fathered Reu. 19 And Peleg lived after he fathered Reu 209 years and had other sons and daughters.
20 When Reu had lived 32 years, he fathered Serug. 21 And Reu lived after he fathered Serug 207 years and had other sons and daughters.
22 When Serug had lived 30 years, he fathered Nahor. 23 And Serug lived after he fathered Nahor 200 years and had other sons and daughters.
24 When Nahor had lived 29 years, he fathered Terah. 25 And Nahor lived after he fathered Terah 119 years and had other sons and daughters.
26 When Terah had lived 70 years, he fathered Abram, Nahor, and Haran.
“Complete knowledge [of the Torah] leads to mercy. Mercy is the mission and crosses over all the divisions. It branches out through friendships. It is the fire that scorches slaves and makes them into freedmen. It protects those who wander, it shields them, exalts them and makes them into mountaineers [of Ararat].”
Terah's Descendants
27 Now these are the generations of Terah. Terah fathered Abram, Nahor, and Haran; and Haran fathered Lot (covering). 28 Haran died in the presence of his father Terah in the land of his kindred, in Ur (flame) of the Chaldeans (the birthplace of Abraham). 
“From the Mountaineer, the Scattered Fire creates the Father of Compassion.” 
29 And Abram and Nahor took wives. The name of Abram's wife was Sarai (the princess, the senate), and the name of Nahor's wife, Milcah (the queen), the daughter of Haran the father of Milcah and Iscah (she will weave a cover). 30 Now Sarai was barren; she had no child.
31 Terah took Abram his son and Lot the son of Haran, his grandson, and Sarai his daughter-in-law, his son Abram's wife, and they went forth together from Ur of the Chaldeans to go into the land of Canaan, but when they came to Haran (to be burnt), they settled there. 
32 The days of Terah were 205 years, and Terah (the patient breather) died in Haran.
=
“Governors and governments born on Ararat, who are violence free, purged of its influences, who are guided by the Fire of Chesed to Canaan, a world at peace, they are verily the servants of God.” 
Should the world fall prey to violence incited by a personality or two, persons who want to make a name for themselves free of resistance and competition, we must containerize the situation through strong, solid government led by the very best the world has to offer and never lose our way again.

3. Parsha Lekh Lekha, “The Becoming.” From Genesis 12:1–17:27.
Tumblr media
The Call of Abram
12 The Lord had said to Abram "the Shield", “Go from your country, your people and your father’s household to the land I will show you.
2 “I will make you into a great nation, and I will bless you; I will make your name great, and you will be a blessing.[a] 3 I will bless those who bless you, and whoever curses you I will curse; and all peoples on earth will be blessed through you.”[b]
*Great Nations =the result of the “Shield” wedding Sarai, “the Senate”. 
->What is a curse and why would a Blessed God levy them, and how?
For this we need to resort to the Bow and Arrow, "transmutation expertise", the Talmud, and the resources of Chabad Hasidic Philosophy.
Shelah means "emissary of blessing", kelalah is the opposite. God is always the Missionary of Blessings, man has the capacity to take these blessings and devolve them into curses:
In the words of our sages, “No evil descends from heaven”—only two types of good. The first is a “blatant” and obvious good—a good which can be experienced only as such in our lives. The other is also good, for nothing but good can “emerge from the Supernal One”; but it is a “concealed good,” a good that is subject to how we choose to receive and experience it.
Because of the free choice granted us, it is in our power to distort these heavenly blessings into curses, to subvert these positive energies into negative forces."
When devolution to God's Greatness occurs because evil men are at work this is when we need Abram, Serai and Lot the most.
4 So Abram went, as the Lord had told him; and Lot “covered” went with him. Abram was seventy-five years old when he set out from Harran [Ararat. This implies Abram purged himself of all inhumane tendencies that caused the Flood].
5 He took his wife Sarai [his senate], his nephew Lot, all the possessions they had accumulated and the people they had acquired in Harran, and they set out for the land of Canaan [the low place, the place of humility], and they arrived there.
This means Lot is "covered", protected by Abram, the Shield, AKA the covenant between God and Noah that took place on Harran, "the mountaineer" who was lot's "father".
All that took place on Ararat was meant by God to protect all the generations of mountaineer fathers and their sons who follow.
This concept of the mountaineer recurs in the Torah repeatedly. See my post on Torah Geography as to why.
6 Abram traveled through the land as far as the site of the great tree of Moreh [early rain, the teacher, AKA the Tree of Eden] at Shechem [the shoulder]. At that time the Canaanites were in the land. 7 The Lord appeared to Abram and said, “To your offspring[c] I will give this land.” So he built an altar there to the Lord, who had appeared to him.
Canaanites are "Royal Qualities" that must be inherited, from the generation ahead which has shouldered the burden of the religion across the ages, from Eden onward.
One of these is the "pitching of the tent", the creation of a mobile refuge that exists between the savagery we saw in early human beings and a mankind that subscribes to the enlightened tenets of the Temple:
8 From there he went on toward the hills east of Bethel [house of God] and pitched his tent, with Bethel on the west and Ai [place of ruin] on the east. There he built an altar to the Lord and called on the name of the Lord.
9 Then Abram set out and continued toward the Negev [dry, parched].
Abram, “The protection” and his “senate” leave the mountain top free of any hints of the curse, the urge to use state power for violence. They move on to Canaan where God says all ‘servants of servants’ AKA civilized governments are born. Imagine that, a government that acknowledges it is paid by the people to make life palpable!
They pitch a tent, meaning they establish a vessel in which the skills and attributes can be taught and learned. It is “West of the House of God, east of ruin, on the way towards a place parched free of anarchy. 
Abram, the “Shield” presumably a term for a Chief Executive, then heads towards Egypt which remains a Hebrew word for the “Temple of Ptah” the Egyptian god of speech. 
We don’t yet have the Ten Commandments. We have nothing in fact, except violence and killing and an angry God. 
Why didn’t God give us the Commandments and tell us on the cover page of the Torah all about the “Thou Shalt Nots?” 
Why did he wait until Slavery in Egypt, when the “temple of the god of speech” turned from being a source of science and statecraft into a place of lies, gossip, propaganda and stupefaction? 
Could the Commandments have prevented slavery? Or is there simply no excuse for killing, for the ruin of all that Joseph built and shame on you for not knowing this on your own, it’s common sense? 
Let’s see if the first mention of Egypt in the Torah offers a clue: 
Abram in Egypt
10 Now there was a famine in the land, and Abram went down to Egypt "the Temple of Ptah, the Place of Tragedy" to live there for a while because the famine was severe. 11 As he was about to enter Egypt, he said to his wife Sarai, “I know what a beautiful woman you are.
12 When the Egyptians see you, they will say, ‘This is his wife.’ Then they will kill me but will let you live. 13 Say you are my sister, so that I will be treated well for your sake and my life will be spared because of you."
-> Famines are periods when Torah instruction is suspended and from the ground up and even into the sea, life becomes stressed. This is true literally and figuratively as we are seeing.
Because our generation of mankind has turned profoundly away from the Torah and all faith in general to worthless superstitions about food, clothes, sex, and abortion, all the elements and resources on the earth are retracting and becoming poisonous to us, to plants, animals, and microbes.
Once we restore the Torah, the weather, the ground, crops, and the supply chain of food will return to normal along with it.
14 When Abram came to Egypt, the Egyptians saw that Sarai was a very beautiful woman. 15 And when Pharaoh’s officials saw her, they praised her to Pharaoh "the Confederate", and she was taken into his palace. 16 He treated Abram well for her sake, and Abram acquired sheep and cattle, male and female donkeys, male and female servants, and camels.
-> The famine in Canaan, which had olives, grapes, grain and pomegranates (peace, prosperity, learning, and righteousness means corruption drove Abram and his government away. Right into the hands of Pharaoh, a kind of monarch that was always treated like a god. And we hate those. 
Now remember, Joseph was not a pharaoh but an emperor, an important distinction. 
Abram and Sarai have traded their freedom and their holy union for a bunch of farm animals. 
Sheep= subservience
Cattle= collateral for loans. Abram loaned his government to a god on the ground for some cattle. 
Male and Female Donkeys= donkeys are slow and really don’t do a lot of work. Male donkeys are the worst, and a female donkey just makes more donkeys! So Abram gave up his finely tuned working government for a  donkey farm. 
Camels= Camels are said to be infused with the elements around them. Obviously a bunch of camels who store up the propaganda of the Pharaoh are not going to be any good to anyone. 
Camels that carry the essence of the religion and the Tenets, Decrees, Commands, etc. these carry pilgrims from one oasis in history to the next.
So now, notice- long before the Flight, God has to schcrew around with the Egyptians to get Pharaoh to let the democratic government go free from its captivity to an idol; it seems to me we are in the same place with the same people, but politics have changed: 
17 But the Lord inflicted serious diseases on Pharaoh and his household because of Abram’s wife Sarai. 18 So Pharaoh summoned Abram. “What have you done to me?” he said. “Why didn’t you tell me she was your wife? 19 Why did you say, ‘She is my sister,’ so that I took her to be my wife? Now then, here is your wife. Take her and go!” 20 Then Pharaoh gave orders about Abram to his men, and they sent him on his way, with his wife and everything he had.
Governments must be grown up out of the principals established at the end of Noach. There is no way around this. The alternative is to allow confederacy, a government based on immoral principals enforced as if they were rule of law.
-> If famines represent periods without the Torah, then diseases represent the presence of the Exterminators, or violations of the Seven Laws of Noah.
It is a duty of all Israelites to ensure the Torah is mainstreamed and the Exterminators are treated and "vaccinated". Just as in real life, Incenses and resins are used for this purpose.
The Pharaoh, a confederate did not want any of these or a "senate" that belonged to a man who covenanted with God to address the causes of violence and shield the people through policy and rule of law. Why would he?
He returns the senate to whom he borrowed it, and we know what kind of culture grows up in Egypt instead. Absent an appropriate womb, a flawed model of government springs up next to the future Israelites and we know how that turns out.
All working governments must have senates, food, medicines and laws, they must "cover" the people, they must all be local, indigenous and bind the people to one another via lawful matrimony with the Head of State.
If these help a culture become something amazing, then surely famines and diseases - violence and oppression - are their undoing. A shield governor like Abram is what trans-mutates all that God gives us an initial blessing through His Torahs during the Seven Days and and amplifies them into civilized life through the manmade torah of sound government.

Parsha Lekh Lekha, “The Becoming.” Part 2.
Abram and Lot Separate.
Tumblr media
13 So Abram went up from Egypt "the place of misfortune" to the Negev (dry or parched, rolling, waving hills) with his wife and everything he had, and Lot went with him. 2 Abram had become very wealthy in livestock and in silver (common knowledge) and gold (hidden knowledge).
SO Abram, the Chief Executive and his government evade the wrath of the idolaters, win their titles back, the land becomes parched of hypocrisy and corruption once the god-man gives up trying to indenture them. 
Try as we might, we cannot hide our natural aspirations to be free from the oppressors that infest our governments. Because of famines in the general population, they always comes back.
The greatest famine of them all is the fact everyone on this planet knows the stories in the Torah, like the Great Flood but the world has never applied concerted effort into ending violence.
In the next section, the Torah says governments and the generations should flock around it, become cross-sections of one another so we don't continually wind up with mixed or competing results as times and interpretations of life on earth become subject to change. To "roll South" as time rolls forward is called Negev:
3 From the Negev he went from place to place until he came to Bethel "the House of God", which is always on a hill, to the place between Bethel and Ai (ruins) where his tent had been earlier 4 and where he had first built an altar.
There Abram called on the name of the Lord. [reinforces the fact Israel does not acknowledge Egypt, the Temple of Ptah, where words and pictures and symbols make men think they are as little gods entitled to expansive lives]
5 Now Lot, who was moving about with Abram, also had flocks and herds and tents. 6 But the land could not support them while they stayed together, for their possessions were so great that they were not able to stay together.
7 And quarreling arose between Abram’s herders and Lot’s. The Canaanites and Perizzites [suburbanites] were also living in the land at that time.
8 So Abram said to Lot, “Let’s not have any quarreling between you and me, or between your herders and mine, for we are close relatives. 9 Is not the whole land before you? Let’s part company. If you go to the left, I’ll go to the right; if you go to the right, I’ll go to the left.”
Right = towards the sun, towards wisdom, towards God. 
Left= badness, awkwardness, clumsiness. 
*Not sure why Abram would agree to go left, but turns out Lot chose to turn left.
10 Lot looked around and saw that the whole plain of the Jordan  [to descend] toward Zoar [smallness] was well watered, like the garden of the Lord, like the land of Egypt. (This was before the Lord destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah.)
11 So Lot chose for himself the whole plain of the Jordan and set out toward the east. The two men parted company: 12 Abram lived in the land of Canaan, while Lot lived among the cities of the plain and pitched his tents near Sodom. 13 Now the people of Sodom were wicked and were sinning greatly against the Lord.
-> Lot turned left and went back East across the Jordan. This means he chose not to maintain the principals Abram represented and this gave birth to Sodom and Gomorrah, "Tyranny and Violence."
14 The Lord said to Abram after Lot had parted from him, “Look around from where you are, to the north and south, to the east and west. 15 All the land that you see I will give to you and your offspring[d] forever.
16 I will make your offspring like the dust of the earth, so that if anyone could count the dust, then your offspring could be counted. 17 Go, walk through the length and breadth of the land, for I am giving it to you.”
18 So Abram went to live near the great trees of Mamre [well fed]  at Hebron [place of friendship], where he pitched his tents. There he built an altar to the Lord.
-> the Tantra in this section is: 
“The man who is covered by the light descends into smallness, and lives under tyranny and there he smolders. 
The upright man is humble but not small. He will have many friends who prosper all around him.”
This is indeed the Torah Tantra of Lot, the Small Man, who championed by the law, smolders under the reign of a tyrant, and stands up to him for the sake of those who would be free.
