He blew into his nostrils the breath
of life (Genesis
2:7). The word is inclusive, but He blew into his nostrils the breath of
life---into that dust, like a female impregnated by a male, for they
join and this dust is filled with all [Kol]. With whom?
The Zohar, Pritzker Edition,
Be-Reshit, 1:49a.
The
key to exegesis is eisegesis. -----As Sartre pointed out, we only ever find
what we're already looking for (Eddington said it better than Sartre). . . I
was looking for confirmation that the first adam [the human] was pregnant prior
to the original crime found in Genesis 2:21? ---- I was looking for textual
evidence for a "murder" scripture implies pre-seeded Cain's murder of
Abel (John 8:44)?
What
I found is that the "ground" (adamah),
which represents the human body (ha-adam), is "feminine" in the text.
I found, after exegeting these things, that the first human was already pregnant
with the Jewish “firstborn” prior to the Genesis 2:21 abortion that's the
original crime, the original murder.
God
breathed into the human's mouth and the human was pregnant with Messiah. The
other god, knowing something was going on between the human and God, got
nervous, and cut into the human, aborted Messiah, took the remnants of the
first murder, and made Lilith, who he impregnated forming Cain, one murderer
birthing another: Messiah aborted for the time being.
The
serpent-god sewed up the first human leaving a large necrotic member thereafter used to abort all
natural (through the mouth) pregnancies, by replacing them with the serpent's
preference for using the waste organs in the middle of body ---in the middle of
the night ---when and where he hoped no one
would notice. . . So far few have. . . And those who have haven't minded too
much.
Genesis
chapter two has God create the human from the "ground" (feminine) and
"breathe" (masculine) into her mouth (pre-phallic intercourse) the
living-"man" (the first man, who should be the "firstborn")
a living-soul (Messiah), . . . the first human is figured feminine (created
from feminine material and given the first masculine form of
"breath"), such that God has non-phallic intercourse with the human
(through the mouth, the kiss of God) and the two conceive Messiah: the literal
Son of God:
The ministering angels spake before
the Holy One, blessed be He, saying: Sovereign of all worlds! "What is
man, that thou shouldst take note of him?" (Ps. cxliv. 3). "Man
(Adam) is like unto vanity" (ibid. 4), upon earth there is not his like.
(God) answered them: Just as all of you praise Me in the heights of heaven so
he professes My Unity on earth, nay, moreover, are you able to stand up and
call the names for all the creatures which I have created? They stood up, but
were unable (to give names). Forthwith Adam stood up and called the names for
all His creatures, as it is said, "And the man gave names to all
cattle" (Gen. ii. 20). When the ministering angels saw this they retreated,
and the ministering angels said: If we do not take council against this man so
that he sin before his Creator, we cannot prevail against him (Pirke De
Rabbi Eliezer, chap 8).
God's
unity with creation was living in the human. The ministering angels realized
what the birth of this product of God's union with the human would mean:
mankind would rise above the angels of heaven.
Sammael was the prince in heaven. .
. What did Sammael do? . . . he found among [the creatures] . . . none so
skilled to do evil as the serpent" (Ibid.).
It is a well known fact that in
almost every culture the serpent represents some sort of phallic symbol. To a
large degree then, the serpent represents sexual temptation [and fulfillment].
Our sages teach us that the main temptation the serpent used to lure Eve was
that of Sex.
Rabbi Aryeh Kaplan, Tzithzith: A
Thread of Light.
The
word used for the "forming" of the first human, yasar, has two
yod, when the word all other times has only one:
This connotes two formations. . .
There were two formations, of celestial beings, of earthly creatures. . . two
formations, one in this world and one in the future world.
Midrash
Rabbah Bereshith.
If
the human is created perfect, then the ultimate abomination would be to wound
or violently manipulate a body God created perfect. If the mark of this
abomination is the labia, sewn up with a natural suture called the "penile
raphe," then "un-circumcision" is not just the flesh ritually
removed as a "sign" of the actual circumcision (Gen. 17:11), i.e.,
the foreskin, it's the entire organ created when the labia are sutured by
Samael in order to create the abomination of desecration ritually undone when
Samael is undone at the ritual emasculation (bris milah).
Adam
and Eve are the most pagan people in the world since they desecrate God's
original design with the help of the very serpent who is ritually sacrificed
under the chuppah. In this sense, any
religion that claims it doesn't have paganism flowing through its vein's is as
empty and vain as its veins since all blood comes through Adam and Eve.
Which
is to say, with the great Jewish sages, that circumcision is not the utter
elimination of the phallus, as the symbolism clearly appears to suggest
(Abulafia and Rabbi Hirsch struggle to understand why the symbolism appears to
suggest emasculation when the teaching suggests merely putting the flesh in its
rightful place). Circumcision represents the end of the flesh's reign but not
the utter elimination of the flesh. The flesh, that formerly gave life through
its seed, cedes that life-giving authority to its blood, rather than its seed.
Jewish
emasculation doesn't utterly eliminate the phallus. It eliminates every aspect
but the blood. Which is vitally important. ----- It means the phallus must
exist for its blood to possess its potency. The phallus, the serpent, must
exist, to die, so that its blood becomes the elixir of everlasting life. There
would be no everlasting life but for the Fall in the Garden. Genesis clearly
states that it’s only after the Fall that the concern for man reaching out to
grab the fruit of everlasting life becomes a fearful thing for the heavenly
serpents ruled by Samael.
Samael
removes man from the Garden of Eden for fear that he will reach out and take
the fruit of everlasting life and live forever.
Whether
known or unknown to Samael, the taking of the fruit of everlasting life is the
taking of the life of Samael. He forfeits his physical existence, his life, in
the act through which his blood becomes mankind's entry into the realm of heavenly
existence.
The
phallic-sex Samael devised for mankind in order to keep him in the realm of
death is transgressed and transformed in true Judaism into sex through the
mouth rather than the genitals. Drinking Samael's blood replaces taking him
into the body through the waste orifice, which, phallic-sex, produces death in
every case . . . even as everyone who drinks the blood of the circumcision ---
metzitzah ---- has everlasting life flowing through their veins, since the
blood of death, is the death of death, is everlasting life. In this sense the
"abomination of desolation," once was (as a desecration), now is not
(as a crucifixion), and yet will come again (as a depredation of the human
genome).
Because
the author of the original crime, Samael, has for so long presented himself as
the god of this world (which in no small sense he is), the Torah from his pen-is
willy nilly about facts and figures that would shine a light on his great and
original crime. His crime is there in black and white. But good men and women
for millennia have tip-toed through the twolips of the Garden in order not to
bring down the wrath and judgment (din)
of the god-of-this-world (Samael) on themselves and their families.
Orthodox
Jews and Christians (and perhaps Muslims) have placed fences around the text of
the Torah. They've pawned off orthodox interpretations that are hardly worthy
of the term "interpretation," in order to protect themselves, their
family, their religion, from a premature understanding
of truths whose eventual birth will rupture the fabric of the natural world.
In
mythology, which recapitulates memories living deep in the collective
consciousness (or psyche) of the race, the first Eve is known simply as “Lilith.”
Lilith's primary modus operandi, her primary claim to fame, is that of a
murderer of the "unborn." She's a persecutor of pregnant woman: she
attempts to abort the child within the mother’s womb:
Of all the motifs in Jewish
mythology, none --- other than that of Messiah --- remains so vivid to this day
as the myth of Lilith. She occupies a central place among the demonic images of
Judaism because she is by far the most distinctive figure among this religion's
numerous evil spirits. . . As the terrible, devouring mother, she tries to harm
pregnant woman and to steal their newborn children. She is always poised to
kill the child so that she can drink its blood and suck the marrow from its
bones.
Sigmund Hurwitz, Lilith: The First
Eve.
Dr.
Hurwitz, a confidant of Jung, notes a number of things directly related to the
subject of the first Eve. Firstly, according to Dr. Hurwitz, Lilith is second
only to Messiah, in the pantheon of Jewish mythology. It’s ironic that Dr.
Hurwitz would connect the two ----knowingly or unknowingly. ----Secondly, on
the same page where he connects Lilith and Messiah, he suggests that Lilith
(the first Eve) sucks the marrow from the child's bones.
The
adam calls Eve (or Lilith) bone of the
adam’s bone, flesh of the adam’s flesh, linking Lilith with the abortion of the
Messianic pregnancy. Metaphorically, Lilith’s creation sucked the blood and
marrow from the fetus of Messiah in order that she might be given a body and a life.
Samael is the perpetrator of the crime. But in the mythological mind, which
hasn't yet connected all the dots, Eve, Lilith, herself, sucks the blood out of
the adam's womb, in order to create her own life and independent existence.
Genesis 2:21-22 reveals that Lilith's first lover, Samael, does the dirty work.
Someone
already predisposed to the thesis (that the adam was pregnant with Messiah
prior to Genesis 2:21) would revel in the fact that nothing on the surface of
the text of the Torah suggests anything about Eve killing the fetus of Cain, or
Abel, or any other fetus. . . Nothing on the surface of the text of the Torah
gives any inclination to the idea of Lilith, the first Eve, killing a child in
the womb, and sucking its blood and marrow.
And
yet the theory that Samael enters the adam's body, aborts the pregnancy, and
uses the bone of that abortion, the marrow of that abortion, the flesh of that
abortion, to form the body of the first Eve --- Lilith ---- justifies
perfectly, seamlessly, an instinct and memory deep within the collective
consciousness of the human race, most carefully guarded and mythologized, by
the Jewish people.
Lilith
is found in one form or another throughout ancient mythology. Her existence is
not just second only to Messiah, or the pagan god/man, she's treated as the
original woman, the goddess of mankind. ----And yet part and parcel of her very
persona is that she aborts pregnancies sucking the blood and marrow out of the
pregnancy. ----- One might ask themselves whose pregnancy the first and only
woman might abort? Whose fetus might she suck clean of marrow and blood?
Mythologies
don't add personas willy nilly, so to say. In their deepest strata, mythologies
are not fabricated. Though where the psyche gets confused, it may distorted the
genuine memory trapped in the flesh and blood of the human psyche, it never
sacrifices the most seminal element of the myth.
In
the myth of Lilith, the most seminal element of her persona is her relationship
to the unborn. . . And yet we find no explicit detail on the surface of the
Torah to account for the deepest and most seminal element of Lilith's persona
and personage (destroying the "unborn").
As we have seen, messianic activity
was understood by some Kabbalists to be connected to a search for contact
between the human aspirant to the messianic role and the supernal spiritual
world, sometimes conceived in terms of a hypostatical Messiah. . . [In this
sense] Messiah must have some relation to evil in order to prevail. According
to a passage written by R. Joseph of Hamadan, a late thirteenth-century
Kabbalist active in Castile, the Messiah is the offspring of the intercourse
between God and the collective spirits of evil, described both as the divine
concubine [Lilith] and as Metatron. This is part of the divine strategy, in
fact a divine deceit, to save the people of Israel by means of the Messiah,
who, coming from the demonic realm, is not opposed by evil forces when
undertaking the redemptive activity. This is a very interesting case where the
Messiah is described as the son of God.
Moshe Idel, Professor of Jewish
Thought, Hebrew University of Jerusalem (Messianic Mystics, p. 120).
Professor
Idel shows that there's a strain of genuine Jewish thought that justifies the
revelation of the Genesis 2 fiasco. The great deceit is that the perceived God
of Genesis is in fact the lord of the demonic realm, while, hidden in the desecrated
flesh of Adam and Eve, and thus their descendants, is the true God, the divine
Messiah, God’s firstborn son.
The
monotheistic God recognized by Judaism cannot have any genuine contact with his
creation without threatening the very nature of omnipotence and perfection
since if there's freewill within what he creates, the creatures with that
freewill are free to sin, and he cannot be the author of sin, nor can he come
in contact with sin. The concept of tzimtzum is based on the fact that the
omnipotent God of the bible would have to pull back from his creation leaving a
space where he is not, in order for freewill to exist in the realm where he is
not. But when he pulls back leaving a space where he is not, evil forces immediately
fill the vacuum since that space, free of God's power and rule, is up for grabs
to the most powerful creature within the realm.
When
the Principalities and Powers took over the space vacated by the omnipotent
God, they set themselves up as the divine rulers of the space where planet
earth resides. But God devised a plan to deceive these angelic rulers. He left
something of himself hidden in the space he vacated. If these angelic rulers
found this element of true God hidden in the space vacated by God, they had the
power to destroy it completely, therein taking over God's "vineyard"
(creation) once and for all eternity.
Jesus
is hidden inside the demonic shells as a form of protection by means of a
particular kind of deceit. This idea is found throughout the Torah and Tanakh
and is manifest symbolically in the nature of the phallus and circumcision. In
Exodus 23:20-23, God tells Moses that he's sending an angelic messenger to
protect Israel until they get to the promised land, at which time he (God) will
cut off the angelic messenger.
The
idea is that God will use evil as a fence around the holy. By placing the
greatest evil power (the prince of the fallen angels: Samael) around Israel,
God protects Israel against lesser evils that might try to destroy her. The
passage in Exodus 23:20 creates great difficulty for traditional Jewish
exegetes in that it lends itself perfectly to the idea put forth here, which
nevertheless tends to be contrary to Judaism's sensibilities.
Rabbi
Hirsch is forced to mangle the exegesis of these verses in a manner so far
beneath his brilliance simply because of the damage these verses can do to the
traditional understanding of these things in mainstream Judaism.
20 Behold, I send an Angel
before thee, to keep thee in the way, and to bring thee into the place which I
have prepared. 21 Beware of him, and obey his voice, provoke him not; for
he will not pardon your transgressions: for my name is in him. 22 But if
thou shalt indeed obey his voice, and do all that I speak; then I will be an
enemy unto thine enemies, and an adversary unto thine adversaries. 23 For
mine Angel shall go before thee, and bring thee in unto the Amorites, and the
Hittites, and the Perizzites, and the Canaanites, and the Hivites, and the
Jebusites: and then I will cut him off.
Rabbi
Hirsch rightly discerns that the command to "obey" this
"angel" (Hebrew "messenger") suggests that he gives
commandments which must be obeyed: i.e., he's the same angel through whom the
law was delivered to Moses (Galatian 3:19). But Rabbi Hirsch protests against
Galatians 3:19 (which upsets the applecart of mainstream Judaism): " . . .
we do not find that God sends His commandments through an angel." Since
Rabbi Hirsch, with mainstream Judaism, rejects angelic mediation of the law,
he's forced to claim that Exodus 23:20-22 is speaking not of an angelic
messenger, but Moses himself.
But
nothing is quite so absurd since God is speaking to Moses telling him that he
will send the "messenger" to protect Israel, and he (God) states
explicitly that Israel must obey this angel because his (God's) name
(the Torah) is in him: inside the messenger. . . Furthermore, the
"messenger" is going to follow Israel into the promised land and help
Israel destroy the enemies who live in the land. . . Moses isn't allowed into
the promised land. He dies before Israel enters the land, pointing out the
desperation Rabbi Hirsch is forced into by claiming the verse speaks of Moses.
The
Torah, God's name, is hidden inside the fiery serpent Moses experienced at the
burning bush. God's voice, the Tree of Life, came out from the burning bush,
which is the withered thorn-bush all alight by means of the fiery serpent who
lives there. This is bris milah 101. The sanctified "firstborn" is
hidden inside the serpentine flesh until that flesh is opened up to reveal the
"firstborn" that's been hiding there all along.
The
serpentine flesh (the phallus) is the demonic guardian of the
"firstborn."
In
Genesis 2, both the adam and the serpent are supposed to "guard" the
sacred soul God breathed into the adam at the point he created him already
pregnant with Messiah. But contrary to trying to guard the "breath"
of God, who the adam is pregnant with prior to the original crime (murder), and
then the original sin (phallic-sex), the adam and the serpent conspire to abort
Messiah.
Samael
(the divine phallus/serpent) pierces the adam's female body and removes the
fetus of Messiah which he manipulates to form the body of Eve. Adam is
ecstatic. He now has a beautiful female standing before him. And whereas once
he was himself female, now his labia have been sewn up to form the letter nun that represents his rulership/lordship
over all those who he has created through the authority of the nun given to him by the serpent.
Professor
Gershom Scholem speaks of these things as a “primal flaw” associated with
distortions that go back to the very beginning of creation:
The primal flaw must be mended so
that all things can return to their proper place, to their original posture.
Man and God are partners in this enterprise. After the original breaking [of
the vessels] God began the process of reparation, but He left its completion to
man. If Adam had not sinned the world would have entered the Messianic state on
the first Sabbath after creation, with no historical process whatever.
Gershom Scholem, The Messianic
Idea in Judaism, p. 46.
Israel's
destiny is, with God, to effect the emendation of the primal flaw. Its
definition is therefore paramount in understanding Israel's part in the
correction of this primal flaw. Professor Scholem, in context with the
quotation above, states that the first human fell from his high station:
. . .whereupon the divine light in
his soul was dispersed. Henceforth even the light of the soul would be
imprisoned in a dungeon with the sparks of the Shekhinah under a single doom .
All being was . . . scattered in Galut [exile]. In all the expanse of creation
there is imperfection, flaw, Galut [exile].
As
the representative of the immanent Presence of God, Shekhinah is Messiah. As
the aborted Jewish "firstborn" of creation, Shekhinah is imprisoned,
with all of humanity, in Exile. ----- Fallen humanity are the very people of
God, the messianic people of God. All share in the Exile of the Shekhinah. All
are called upon to reverse the process that created the Fall in the Garden.
Nevertheless
God chose a particular people, Israel, as the vessel through whom the
repair to the primal flaw (in the breaking of the vessels) would come. He
created Israel the particular, if not peculiar, messianic people; the people
through whom the abortion of Messiah's status as the "firstborn" of
all humanity should be repaired. Israel was chosen specifically to birth the
"son of the human" a.k.a., the Son of Man.
The predicament of Israel, then, is
not a historical accident but inherent in the world's being [beginning], and it
is in Israel's power to repair the universal flaw.
Ibid.
How
specifically will Israel repair the universal flaw? ----How is Israel to
reverse it? . . . According to Rabbi Aryeh Kaplan they will repair the primal
flaw by returning Abraham's descendants to the status of Adam (the human) prior
to the fall:
To some degree, circumcision
restored Abraham and his descendants to the status of Adam before his sin.
Aryeh Kaplan, Jerusalem, the Eye
of the Universe.
"They shall make for Me a
sanctuary, and I will dwell inside them" (Exodus 25:8). The commentaries
note that the verse does not say, "I will dwell inside it," but
rather, "inside them."
Ibid.
Rabbi
Kaplan says that "circumcision" restores Abraham and his descendants
to the status of Adam before the Fall. . . He follows up by saying God will not
dwell inside some stone representation of the sanctuary (the tablets of the law,
or the stone temple), but inside them,
Jewish flesh.
Circumcision
is taught to be both a ritual and a "sign."
Certain
decrees in the scripture have a dual status as both a mitzvah and a sign.
Ritual circumcision is such a decree. It must be performed as a ritual and
mitzvah, but it's also a sign of how Abraham and his descendants will return to
the state of the first human (the adam) prior to the Fall.
Professor
Scholem points out that, " . . . a decisive boundary is fixed between
areas of the holy and the unclean which became mixed up at the original
breaking [of the vessels] and then again when Adam sinned. . . [There was]
confusion of the orders of creation which was consequent upon Adam's sin"
(Ibid).
Since
the "breaking of the vessels" describes the desecration of the
human's body, and the breaking of the body of Messiah, there's a clear
inversion and reversal of the intended order of creation in the order presented
in the second chapter of Genesis. Whereas the human (adam) would become female
with the birth of the firstborn Jewish male, Messiah (prior to that the adam
would be genderless since there's no distinguishing factor), the desecration
reversed and inverted the normal order of creation by making the adam a male
when the first human would have been female at the birth of the firstborn male.
Since
the order of creation has been inverted, all things are, in a sense, backwards.
If
the crowning mitzvah of the human race, which is the foundation of the people
of the Messiah, and undoubtedly the most significant sign in the Tanakh (ritual
circumcision), is to be de-ritualized, reversed, to return it to the status of
humanity prior to the inversion and distortions related to the Fall, and Exile,
then metzitzah would be the first order of the actual circumcision (since in
the Fall it's last).
Metzitzah
parallels God breathing life into the first human, such that in order to
facilitate the sign's achievement of its true meaning the organ associated with
conception is used by the mohel when he breathes "new" life into the
child just recently born spiritually dead (by reason of the seed of the
serpent).
In
the inversion that's actually a reversion to the intended norm, the second
order of the actual circumcision is per'iah.
After God (represented by the mohel)
breathes (metzitzah) life into the
messianic flesh (i.e., the uncontaminated ovum) the resulting birth must tear
the intact flesh of the mother since Samael has not yet "opened the
womb" (Ex. 13:2) to affect the desecration. The firstborn of humanity ---
Messiah ---- must, "open the womb," in order not only to establish
his pedigree, but in order that the flesh through which all humanity will thereafter
flow, will be sanctified by the birth of God's Son, such that all humanity will
be restored to their place as the family of God, the offspring of the Messianic
birth, when the intact flesh (membrane) of virgin humanity is torn by the nail
in a hand.
After
the conception (metzitzah) of the
"firstborn" Jewish male --- Messiah --- who, because he's born prior
to the desecration and Fall, must open the first human body himself (per'iah), rather than having it opened
for him by the serpent (phallic-sex), there's now no purpose for the purported
guardian of the Messianic covenant, the serpent, and his fleshly analogue (the
biological scroll). Therefore, the final order of the ritual circumcision,
corrected by being inverted, returned to the prelapsarian order of sanctity, is
milah: the cutting off of the flesh
created in the desecration. The flesh associated with the distortion of the
order of creation is bled, symbolically sacrificed, perhaps sanctified, through
the blood, or perhaps destroyed?
