ELoHIM The Sacred Name Series

Isaiah 11:9 They shall not hurt nor destroy in all my holy
mountain: for the earth shall be full of the knowledge of YHVH,
as the waters cover the seabed.

Habakkuk 2:14 For the earth shall be filled with the knowledge
of the glory of YHVH, as the waters cover the seabed.

בשלשים ושתים נתיבות פליאות חכמה חקק יה יהוה צבאות אלהי ישראל אלהים חיים ומלך עולם אל שדי רחום וחנון רם ונשא שוכן עד וקדוש שמו מרום וקדוש הוא וברא את עולמו בשלשה ספרים בספר וספר וספור:

With 32 mystical paths of Wisdom engraved YaH YHVH TZaVOT
ELoHaY of Israel ELoHIM CHIIM King of the universe EL ShaDdaI
Merciful and Gracious High and Exalted Dwelling in eternity Whose
name is Holy - He is lofty and Holy - And He created His universe
with three books (Sepharim), with text (Sepher) with numbers (Sephar)
and with communication (Sippur)…

"Contraction/constriction/condensation") is a term used in the Lurianic
Kabbalah to explain Isaac Luria's doctrine that God began the process
of creation by "contracting" his Ohr Ein Sof (infinite light) in order
to allow for a "conceptual space" in which finite and seemingly
independent realms could exist.

‎יה יהוה צבאות אלהי ישראל אלהים חיים ומלך עולם אל שדי

Genesis 1:26 And ELoHIM said: 'Let us make ADaM in our
image, after our likeness; and let them have dominion over the fish
of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over
all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth
upon the earth.'

כו וַיֹּאמֶר אֱלֹהִים, נַעֲשֶׂה אָדָם בְּצַלְמֵנוּ כִּדְמוּתֵנוּ; וְיִרְדּוּ בִדְגַת הַיָּם וּבְעוֹף הַשָּׁמַיִם,
וּבַבְּהֵמָה וּבְכָל-הָאָרֶץ, וּבְכָל-הָרֶמֶשׂ, הָרֹמֵשׂ עַל-הָאָרֶץ

27 And ELoHIM created ADaM in It’s own image, in the image
of ELoHIM created them; male and female It created them.

כז וַיִּבְרָא אֱלֹהִים אֶת-הָאָדָם בְּצַלְמוֹ, בְּצֶלֶם אֱלֹהִים בָּרָא אֹתוֹ: זָכָר וּנְקֵבָה, בָּרָא אֹתָם.

And we were created in the image of ELoHIM! Male and
Female! That means soulmates!

Here are a couple of articles that will help to bridge the gap from
ELoHIM to ADaM and Chiyam (Eve), higher insights into
the Name ELoHIM.

As told in the Bible, Adam and Eve were the first humans, created
by G-d on the sixth day of Creation and ancestors to all of mankind.
Initially dwelling in the Garden of Eden, the serpent enticed them
to eat the fruit of the Tree of Knowledge. This sin led them to be
banished from the Garden and invoked Divine punishment on
them and their offspring…

...The Talmud records a dispute as to how Eve was created from
Adam. One approach is that Eve was created from a small section
of flesh removed from Adam (as is commonly understood). According
to an alternative view, G-d originally created a dual human being
possessing two bodies attached at the back, one male and one
female. G‑d then separated Eve from Adam and they continued to
exist as two entities.

According to an alternative view, G-d originally created a dual
human being possessing two bodies attached at the back, one male
and one female. G‑d then separated Eve from Adam and they
continued to exist as two entities.

The first Adam/Eve is called by Kabbalists Adam Ha-Rishon
(primoridal human consciousness). This in no way resembled the
human form as we know it. The Jewish sages speak of it in hyperbole.
It had stupendous proportions, reaching from earth to heaven; it stood
astride earth from one end to the other…

...Adam and Eve were born simultaneously side-by-side, or back-to-
back, attached like Siamese twins. As it says twice in Genesis,
"male and female It created them." To separate them, in
biblical language it says that God took one of Adam's "sides;" in
zoharic language, it says, "God sawed Eve off from him."

(For those who say Adam and Eve were attached back-to-back, this
sawing is viewed as the cause of the bumps all humans have along
the back of the spine.)

The Midrash Rabbah says, "When the Holy One created Adam
[Ha-Rishon], it was androgynous. God created Adam Ha-Rishon
double faced, and split him/her so there were two backs, one on
this side and one on the other."

The idea that Adam and Eve were co-equal at birth is not a kabbalistic
secret; it was openly discussed in ancient midrashic literature.
Moreover, it was known two thousand years ago that the idea that
Eve came from Adam's rib was a common misunderstanding. The Torah
is unambiguous on this point. It repeats a second time,
"Male and female It created them," and goes on to say, "and
blessed them, and called their name Adam on the day
they were created."

Whenever the Torah repeats something, the emphasis always suggests
deeper implications. Here, it is impossible to ignore that the creation
of male and female was simultaneous.

Whenever the Torah repeats something, the emphasis always
suggests deeper implications.

Example: Genesis 1:27 And ELoHIM created ADaM in It’s
own image, in the image of ELoHIM created them; male and female
It created them.

Genesis 5:1 This is the book of the generations of Adam. In
the day that ELoHIM created ADaM, in the likeness of EloHIM
made them;

א זֶה סֵפֶר, תּוֹלְדֹת אָדָם: בְּיוֹם, בְּרֹא אֱלֹהִים אָדָם, בִּדְמוּת אֱלֹהִים, עָשָׂה אֹתוֹ.

5:2 Male and female created them; and blessed them, and called their
name ADaM, in the day when they were created.

ב זָכָר וּנְקֵבָה, בְּרָאָם; וַיְבָרֶךְ אֹתָם, וַיִּקְרָא אֶת-שְׁמָם אָדָם, בְּיוֹם, הִבָּרְאָם.

ADaM and Eve were created in the image of ELoHIM. Their souls
were born in Genesis Chapter 1, the physical form of ADaM was
created in Genesis Chapter 2:7.

And YHVH ELoHIM formed ADaM of dust from the ground, and blew
into his nostrils the soul of life; and ADaM became a living being.

ז וַיִּיצֶר יְהוָה אֱלֹהִים אֶת-הָאָדָם, עָפָר מִן-הָאֲדָמָה, וַיִּפַּח בְּאַפָּיו, נִשְׁמַת חַיִּים; וַיְהִי הָאָדָם, לְנֶפֶשׁ חַיָּה

I’ve seen teachings that talk of two creations (See: ADAM AND EVE
WERE SIAMESE TWINS) but I see one creation with two stages, the
soul was born in chapter 1 and the physical form created afterwards
in chapter 2.

Which brings us back to the Names YaH and EL and who they
are and to the phrase...

HalleluYaH, we say it, we shout it and sing it. But how many people
know what it means? HalleluYaH is a Hebrew phrase that means
(in English) Praise to YaH יָהּ but who is Yah?

But wait! There’s another Name associated with the Hallel’s and
that Name is EL (אֵל). Now who is EL?

1 Hallelu-YaH Hallelu-EL in the sanctuary; praise in the firmament
of His power.

א הַלְלוּ-יָהּ: הַלְלוּ-אֵל בְּקָדְשׁוֹ; הַלְלוּהוּ, בִּרְקִיעַ עֻזּוֹ.

Simply put, they are the parents of my soul and hopefully yours.
As Yeshua stated “You must be born from above to see the kingdom of ELoHIM.”
Born from above is the correct translation.

The Name consists of the letters and their values…
Alef (1), Lamed (30), Hei (5), Yud (10), and Mem (40).
No final Mem value here. Now take the numbers,
1, 30, 5, 10, 40 and drop the zeros and you get…

1, 3, 5, 1, 4, put them in a circle and you get the first five digets of
Pi. 31415…

And in this process I’ve discovered a new Bible code,
I call it GilGal (wheel), talk about quantum tunneling…
John 8:59, 20:19, 26

Which brings us to a very interesting question, We were created in
the image of ELoHIM, so, are we and our soulmates infinite as well?

Kabbalistic literature is replete with descriptions of the soul mate
process from R. Sa'adya Gaon to R. Joseph Gikatilla not to mention
the Sefer Zohar.

'And ELoHIM created ADaM in their image, in the image of EloHIM
they created them, male and female they created them."
Genesis 1:27.

Souls were created in Genesis chapter 1, the physical form of Adam
in Chapter 2:7.

Back to the Zohar... When we descend into this realm our souls are
separated and we are born into different forms.

Every week in the Synagogue a different section of the Torah
and Prophets are read following the Hebrew calendar.

11 And YHVH spake unto Moses, saying, 12 When thou takest the
sum of the children of Israel after their number, then shall they give
every man a ransom for his soul unto YHVH, when thou number
them; that there be no plague among them, when thou number them.

13 This they shall give, every one that passeth among them that are
numbered, half a shekel after the shekel of the sanctuary: (a shekel is
twenty gerahs:) an half shekel shall be the offering of YHVH.

14 Every one that passeth among them that are numbered, from
twenty years old and above, shall give an offering unto YHVH.
15 The rich shall not give more, and the poor shall not give less than
half a shekel, when they give an offering unto YHVH, to make an
atonement for your souls.

16 And thou shalt take the atonement money of the children of Israel,
and shalt appoint it for the service of the tabernacle of the
congregation; that it may be a memorial unto the children of Israel
before YHVH, to make an atonement for your souls.

R. Isaac of Acres insight into this section noted the meaning is
"Half of one's soul," for sheqel denotes the soul.

As a matter of fact the gematria (Hebrew math) of shekel is 430
and the gematria of nefesh (soul) is 430.

But then why would we give a half shekel? (Exodus 30:13)
Wouldn't we give a whole shekel?

Which shines new light into what Yeshua meant when He stated,
"What ELoHIM has joined together let not ADaM put asunder."
Matthew 19:6

Nassim Haramein is a brilliant theoretical physicist and among his
many insights has produced a 3D video of the Yin Yang symbol,
well as much as you can display 3D on a 2D flat screen.

Notice that the Yin Yang symbol has a part of the white embedded
in the black and vice-versa, part of us is in the other so that we can
recognize the other half.

The Zohar states that, A man must elevate himself (spiritually)
in order to merit meeting his soulmate as women are born on a
higher spiritual plane. Think about that, I mean what would the gene
pool look like if that were not the case? Oy Vey…

And if you do merit and meet your other half make no mistake, it’s not
just another day. Imagine YHVH picking you up by your ankles,
turn you upside down and shake out everything you thought
you knew, I know, I’ve seen the violet flame.

The new wave of knowledge (da’at) is always resisted by the old
guard, always. For example the latest view of the great pyramids of
Giza sees them lined up with the wings of the constellation Cygnus,
the swan. The old guard and not that long ago viewed them as
lining up with the belt of Orion.

Graham Hancock has been described as an unconventional thinker.
A native of Scotland, he is a journalist for many British newspapers
including the Times and the Guardian. In 1995 Graham wrote a book
titled Fingerprints of the Gods, which explains, in theory, the origins of
ancient civilizations. One of the topics Graham covers in his book
revolves around the pyramids of Giza and their relationship to the
stars in the sky. The information covered in this article is based on
information from Hancock’s book.

and the Birth of Egypt

Orion represents Esau/Edom See: Genesis 27:40 the blessing
of Esau and Orion’s sword has blood on it (The Orion nebula).

Revelation 4:6 And before the throne there was a sea of glass
like unto crystal: and in the midst of the throne, and round about the
throne, were four beasts full of eyes before and behind. 7 And the first
beast was like a lion, and the second beast like a calf, and the third
beast had a face as a man, and the fourth beast was like a flying
eagle. 8 And the four beasts had each of them six wings about him;
and they were full of eyes within: and they rest not day and night,
saying,Holy, holy, holy, LORD God Almighty, which was, and is, and
is to come.

Amos 5:6 Seek YHVH and live, or he will sweep through
the tribes of Joseph like a fire; it will devour them, and Bethel
will have no one to quench it. 7 There are those who turn
justice into bitterness and cast righteousness to the ground.

8 He who made the Pleiades and Orion, who turns midnight into dawn
and darkens day into night, who calls for the waters of the sea and
pours them out over the face of the land – YHVH is his name.

Genesis 1:16 ELoHIM 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 ELoHIM saw that it was good. 19 And there was evening,
and there was morning – the fourth day.

Psalm 19:1 The heavens declare the glory of EL; and the
firmament sheweth his handywork. 2 Day unto day uttereth speech,
and night unto night sheweth knowledge.

3 There is no speech nor language, where their voice is not heard.
4 Their line is gone out through all the earth, and their words to the end
of the world. In them hath he set a tabernacle for the sun,

5 Which is as a bridegroom coming out of his chamber, and rejoiceth
as a strong man to run a race. 6 His going forth is from the end of the
heaven, and his circuit unto the ends of it: and there is nothing hid
from the heat thereof.

Knowledge
דַּעַת
daʻat, dah'-ath; from H3045; knowledge:—cunning, (ig-) norantly,
know(-ledge), (un-) awares (wittingly).

Genesis 1:14 Then ELoHIM said, “Let there be lights in the
firmament of the heavens to divide the day from the night; and let
them be for signs and seasons, and for days and years;
15 and let them be for lights in the firmament of the heavens
to give light on the earth”; and it was so.

Of course when you have infinity embedded in the first sentence
of the Torah there is no end… on and on and on…
We’ll never exhaust the Torah.

Daniel 12:4 But thou, O Daniel, shut up the words, and seal
the book, even to the time of the end: many shall run to and fro, and
knowledge shall be increased.

וְאַתָּה דָנִיֵּאל, סְתֹם הַדְּבָרִים וַחֲתֹם הַסֵּפֶר--עַד-עֵת קֵץ; יְשֹׁטְטוּ רַבִּים, וְתִרְבֶּה הַדָּעַת.

Jeremiah 9:22 Thus saith YHVH: Let not the wise man glory
in his wisdom, neither let the mighty man glory in his might, let not
the rich man glory in his riches;

כֹּה אָמַר יְהוָה, אַל-יִתְהַלֵּל חָכָם בְּחָכְמָתוֹ, וְאַל-יִתְהַלֵּל הַגִּבּוֹר, בִּגְבוּרָתוֹ; אַל-יִתְהַלֵּל עָשִׁיר, בְּעָשְׁרוֹ.

23 But let him that glorieth glory in this, that he understandeth,
and knoweth Me, that I am YHVH who exercise mercy, justice,saith YHVH.

כִּי אִם-בְּזֹאת יִתְהַלֵּל הַמִּתְהַלֵּל, הַשְׂכֵּל וְיָדֹעַ אוֹתִי--כִּי אֲנִי יְהוָה, עֹשֶׂה חֶסֶד מִשְׁפָּט וּצְדָקָה בָּאָרֶץ: כִּי-בְאֵלֶּה חָפַצְתִּי, נְאֻם-יְהוָה.

Man was made in the image of God. The woman was made in the image of the man.

The relationship that a man/husband (same words in Hebrew and Greek: https://biblehub.com/hebrew/376.htm; https://biblehub.com/greek/435.htm) has with his woman/wife (same words in Hebrew and Greek: https://biblehub.com/hebrew/802.htm; https://biblehub.com/greek/1135.htm); is the same relationship God intends to have with mankind (or at least with a select group chosen from humankind). God describes Israel and the Church using marriage as an analogy.

But if man was made in God’s image, what image were animals made in? We can see from a number of passages that angelic creatures are frequently depicted as being like animals in form and appearance. Animals were formed in their image. See Ezekiel 1 and Revelation 4.

Recall in Genesis 2 that God formed the animals and brought them to Adam to see what He would name them. See verse 19. This was in context of God making a helper fit for him. None of the animals were compatible with Adam for a mate though.

Compare this with how God named the stars:

Psalm 147:4 NKJV
He counts the number of the stars;
He calls them all by name.

But among the angels there were none who could be fit to His bride. Lucifer was looking for equality with God. He apparently aspired to a relationship somewhat like a wife to God:

Isaiah 14:12 and 14 NKJV
How you are fallen from heaven,
O Lucifer, son of the morning!
...
I will ascend above the heights of the clouds,
I will be like the Most High.’

But he was not made for this. God formed from Himself a bride, and also God took on the same form as His bride.

God formed mankind, and selected from humanity a chosen group that would become a spiritual body capable of a union with God Himself.

And this great mystery was, is, and will be an object lesson for the angels:

1 Peter 1:12 NKJV
To them it was revealed that, not to themselves, but to us they were ministering the things which now have been reported to you through those who have preached the gospel to you by the Holy Spirit sent from heaven—things which angels desire to look into.

Ephesians 3:10-11 NKJV
To the intent that now the manifold wisdom of God might be made known by the church to the principalities and powers in the heavenly places, according to the eternal purpose which He accomplished in Christ Jesus our Lord.

Revelation 21:2 NKJV
Then I, John, saw the holy city, New Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband.

Revelation 22:17 NKJV
And the Spirit and the bride say, “Come!” And let him who hears say, “Come!” And let him who thirsts come. Whoever desires, let him take the water of life freely.

The Bible is a romance story about God and His bride.

God refers to Himself exclusively in the masculine in the Bible. However, He does use feminine traits and examples to illustrate who He is and what He is like.

This article provides some useful context and examples:

https://www.gotquestions.org/Holy-Spirit-gender.html

At the resurrection, believers in Christ will receive new, perfected, sinless, incorruptible bodies. These bodies will apparently be neither male nor female, and Christ describes those who are resurrected as being like the angels. However, the resurrected saints who comprise the Church are depicted as one living entity. God is One but is comprised of three persons. We (humans) individually, in our present earthly state, have a singular personhood with three parts: body, soul, and spirit. I think it is accurate to say that the Church, universal and eternal, will be One but comprised of billions of persons.

The Church is the Bride of Christ. As animals serve to represent higher-ordered beings in the Heavenly realm, and our relationship with them is similar to the relationship God has with them, so the concept of marriage is somewhat symbolic. In other words, marriage merely helps us relate to the Heavenly relationship, which is beyond the finite ability of our minds to comprehend presently.

While your links can immediately be recognized to contain lots of food for thought, you should include in your recommendations the WHY it is worth the effort to do so (not merely generally speaking). In other words, what separates this body of knowledge from everything else out their demanding our time and attention?

As Solomon wrote:

And further, my son, be admonished by these. Of making many books there is no end, and much study is wearisome to the flesh.
