From the Beginning / Biraisheet: (Genesis
1:1)
First Reading
Genesis 1:1 (Biraisheet 1:1 -- only this first week of Creation demands this much extra-textual interpretation)
From the beginning of this creation for revelation the Lord balanced the spiritual and the material -- [this name
of the Creator, a singular plurality which may be rendered as All Powers or the Lord as Law(s), is the numerical
equivalent of the Edenic or Biblical Hebrew word for, nature].
1:2
But this world was then pure form and matter in the dark about the depths, yet the wind of the Lord hovered with
the wings of a mother bird over the open faces of Truth.
1:3
Then the Lord willed energy -- [with a big bang] -- and it radiated.
1:4
While the Lord knew energy when it was divine --[everything in concert] -- the Lord [began a series of diversification
which] separated the positive and negative -- [charging ions and aeons with the heat and alternating dark and light
of friction].
1:5
So the Lord summoned the energies of day and entropy of night; and there was mingling before examination in millennium
one of history -- [aeon (millennium) is the Greek form of Edenic YoM, day or age - see Psalms 90:4, and a literal,
solar day is impossible before the luminaries of the fourth YoM -- Adam and Eve encounter moral light and darkness
in this first aeon of the Lord's search for a fitting human partner].
1:6
Then the Lord willed an extensive reach for Truth, with a stratosphere further dividing truth from truth.
1:7
So the Lord developed the sheet of division, a Babel of cultural values below the more rarefied perceptions: so
it had to be - [clouds of subjectivity to complicate and ennoble Man's millennial search for objective truth].
1:8
The Lord had to summon the sheet of heaven, which divided with floodwaters the depraved and the upright in the
destruction and rebirth of the Second Millennium.
1:9
Yet the Lord willed that the pools of terrestrial truth flow to a unified place, leaving a dry continent of the
visible: so it had to be -- [just as they deny a single, original language, the limited scientists long denied
there was once a single land mass - since proven with undersea mapping - continental drift only followed Man's
drift from the One and from communal civility to his fellows].
1:10
The Lord then summoned to the dryness its earthiness, and to those pools of truth were called spiritual streams:
the Lord saw that [these paradoxical alternatives] were ultimately good for humankind - [as the synthesis between
high tide thesis and low tide antithesis would finally emerge].
1:11
Then the Lord willed vegetable from the mineral, the earth green with perennial cultures; fruition cultivated by
Man from divine seeds -- [genetic codes in twisted ladders leading to heaven but] rooted in the earth: so it had
to be.
1:12
Earth would then have regional creeds springing from grass root concepts, growing into full-bloomed cultures perpetuated
by tribe; the Lord saw them as well-intentioned when they formed.
1:13
After idolatrous darkness came dawn [for the vineyard of Bible belief which fruited full at Sinai] in the Third
Millennium.
1:14
Then the Lord willed a double mirror of divine light over the beaten silver of sky to separate the rational and
the intuitive, and to serve as metaphors and historical witnesses marking the ellipses of time.
1:15
These heavenly guides enlightening the lower spheres [would include inspired teachers for all peoples and ages]:
so it had to be.
1:16
So the Lord developed the two great mirrors of divine energies: the emerging and declining nations would rule visible
history like the majestic sun does the day, while a small, ever waning and waxing orb of faith, and the stellar
spirits, would rule a shadow empire -- as the moon and stars do the night.
1:17
While [some negate the forces of day or night,] the Lord gave them [both] to Man from a celestial reach, to bathe
all below in conflicting but complementary cosmic rays - [with history driven by opposing magnetic poles, pendulum
swings that form then break orbits of reform and reaction, massive revolutions to subtle evolutions].
1:18
Moreover, [these energies] would rule the rises and falls of history and separate the periods of bright revolution
and dark anarchy: the Lord saw that [these pendulum swings to keep Mankind moving from thesis, to antithesis, and
finally synthesis were] well prepared [in heaven].
1:19
Subsequently, there would be barbarity before enlightenment in the two-Temple time of the Fourth Millennium.
1:20
Then the Lord willed that there evolve from [earlier] marine [plants and unicellular organisms] a spawn of motile,
multi-organic life; amphibians emerging until fin and wing would fly and skate through the skies below and above.
1:21
Then the Lord bio-engineered the great dinosaurs -- ["the reptiles, the great ones" can only refer to
a giant species that dominated its age - but only in 2001 was the link between birds and dinosaurs established]
-- and all reptilian life that evolved from aquatic species and all species of feathered birds: and the Lord saw
them well prepared.
1:22
[Before Man could upset the ecological balance,] the Lord charged their survival by willing them with prolific
abilities to populate and colonize, to fill the ocean seas and fly to distant areas of the land -- [as the newly
amphibious men would fly wing-like sails round the globe from the dinosaur empires of this era].
1:23
[Corresponding to this fifth period of prehistory,] there were dark ages before the golden age of emerging naval
powers in the Fifth Millennium.
1:24
Next, the Lord willed the evolution of more complex animal species, both domesticated and wild, adapted to their
habitat -- [just as sixth millennium humans would form states, from agrarian to predatory nations]: so it had to
be.
1:25
[Just as] the Lord developed the carnivorous and herbivorous, all species that roam the land: Then the Lord saw
them completed in their habitat.
1:26
[With the ecological table set,] the Lord willed that the material and spiritual together would make up human form
and essence; and the fish of the seas, the birds of the sky, the beasts and all creatures of the earth would be
ridden [or run -- Edenic RD root] by Man.
1:27
[In this sequence of increasingly complex animal evolution,] the Lord of Natural Law designed a prototype hominid
-- [Neanderthal, first identified as NaKHaSH, and later devolved to a snake -- which, typically, would diversify
and evolve to become,] in both its upright, free and controlling body and soul, a potentially divine creature;
[while later part of the Creator's separations, from waters to languages] the earthling was originally created
both male and female -- [hermaphroditic -- to shadow the Lord's own nurturing and domineering sides - without sexuality].
1:28
[While the top species should be the fewest,] the Lord specifically charged them and willed for them to proliferate
and freely succeed generations, to populate the globe and landscape it; and to submarine with the fish, to plane
the air with the birds and to burrow beneath and track across like the animals of the earth.
1:29
[Since the animals were originally to learn from, not to consume,] the Lord willed, and behold it is given to [Man]
all the seed grasses of contemplation bearding the full face of the earth, and the cores of conceptions free-fruiting
to perpetuity; for you it shall be sustenance.
1:30
For consumption by the beastly barons of the earth and by those who soar heavenward for those who roam the globe
searching, and for the vegetating masses: so it had to be.
1:31
While only the Lord understands the ultimate synthesis of energy and entropy, and the wars of clashing ideologies
- in the dark century of night and the brightening messianic dawn in the ascent of Man of the Sixth Millennium
-- [the amoral world says "seize the day" before the inevitable night comes, with oblivion ever closer;
the Bible Believer accepts night as the prelude to day, not fearing death with eternity ever closer].
2:1
[After the Sixth Millennium of exile from Eden], spiritual and material history was set, with all their pronouncements
worked out -- [knowing the results of human Free Will should not be confused with determining it, and setting the
laws of nature does not mean the Clockmaker does not re-wind].
2:2
Then, the Lord in the Seventh Millennium shall put an end to all the host [of conflicts and controversies inherent
in creation's divisions]; in the Sabbatical Era all of history's evolutionary striving will cease.
2:3
Further, the Lord shall charge the Seventh Millennium with prosperity and make it distinct [with universal knowledge
of the One]; for then will all conflicting visions be settled, from all the work of division that the Lord created
[for humankind] to eventually synthesize.
********
Therefore each YoM (Hebrew for day -- the source of
Greek aeon and our EON) not only indicates a period of Creation, but also represents a millennium of human history.
(This from the Spanish commentator Nachmonides of the Middle Ages). We are now at 5763 of Creation, and after 9/11/01,
the Beginning of the End (of Days), we are slouching towards the tumultuous Seventh Day, Day of the Lord, Sabbatical
Era, where we reverse the exile of Eden and enjoy God's Presence in This World.
What is the Eighth Day, then? The millennium of peace and Godliness AFTER human history has returned back to the
Lord. The ultimate salvation from terror wars and religious confusion ends before the Seventh "Day" or
Yom or eon. Earth has one Bible faith, and every nation has Levites serving at Temple III (Isaiah 66).
That Seventh Day still has the memories of recent chaos. The 8th Day, however, is already an era where evil and
ignorance is merely an academic curiosity. Messianic life is now a norm. Like the 8th Day when the Tabernacle is
consecrated, the building "week" is over, and the new institutions are already functioning.
May all our souls taste the 8th Day.
There is more about the meaning of 7 and 8 (sheva-satiety and shmona-plenty... SHaMaiN means "fat" too,
as SHeMeN is the oil of enlightenment. This could be done later. For now. I hope you enjoyed the above, and will
consider sharing with visitors to your wonderful website.
Best 7th Day wishes,
Isaac
