Our Present Age

and how it will end

 

Chapter 2 – Genesis Chapter 2

Genesis Chapter 2 contains an incredible amount of information so easily overlooked for hundreds of years. It is also here when se see the first mention of Jehovah Elohiym, who forms Adam from the dust of the Earth. Prior to this in the first 2 verses, we saw an entity called Elohiym who had just finished His work which He had done, and is seen resting on the seventh day, which I call the seventh Age.

Genesis 2:1 Thus the heavens and the earth, and all the host of them, were finished. 2 And on the seventh day Elohiym ended His work which He had done, and He rested on the seventh day from all His work which He had done. 3 Then Elohiym blessed the seventh day and sanctified it, because in it He rested from all His work which Elohiym had created and made.

   
As you can see, the name Jehovah is not mentioned in the passage above, therefore we can understand the “God” who created the heavens and the earth and all the animals during the first six days of Creation to be a pantheon of creator gods, the sons of the Most High, of which Jehovah Elohiym holds a senior position. Moving on to verses 4-9, we see first appearance, or the first reference made, of Jehovah Elohiym. Verse 4 begins with an interesting but subtle declaration: “These are the generations of the heavens and the earth when they were created; in the day that Jehovah Elohiym made the earth and the heavens.” Verse 4 supports my position that the first 7 days of Creation were Ages and not literal 24 hour days because it makes a reference to “the generations of the heavens and the earth”. Notice that this second Creation account is beginning on the eighth day, or eighth Age, but is also declaring the existence of several generations of the heavens and the earth under the authority of Jehovah Elohiym.

     

Genesis 2:4 These are the generations of the heavens and the earth when they were created, in the day that Jehovah Elohiym made the earth and the heavens, 5 before any plant of the field was in the earth and before any herb of the field had grown. For Jehovah Elohiym had not caused it to rain on the earth, and there was no man to till the ground; 6 but a mist went up from the earth and watered the whole face of the ground.
     
Notice that verse 5 is describing an earth void of all animal and plant life, and that the reason for this was because Jehovah Elohiym had not caused it to rain upon the earth. After a “mist” goes up from the earth, there is rain that waters the “whole face of the ground”. Could the “mist” that went up from the earth here contain a Spiritual connotation? It is only after the mist went up and the rain came down when Jehovah Elohiym formed man and breathed life into his nostrils and man became a “living being”. Another interesting fact regarding this passage is the translation of the word “dust” translated from the Hebrew noun “aphar”, which also mean “ashes, debris, rubble”.
     

Genesis 2:7 And Jehovah Elohiym formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living being.

It is agreed by many that what we are looking at in the second Chapter of Genesis is the aftermath of a great angelic war (very possibly a type of “nuclear” war) that devastated the earth, leaving it void of all animal and plant life. I believe that the reason we see the first mention of Jehovah Elohiym here is because He, Jehovah Elohiym, obviously now holds supreme authority over the earth, which is why He is now seen “forming” man from the “ashes” of the ground. I earnestly believe that Jehovah Elohiym used DNA coding that had been left behind in the ashes of the ground to “form” modern man. This could also explain the anthropological gap that exists between the appearance of Neanderthals and that of modern man. Notice how the “formation” of man described in verse 8 is a completely different account from that of Genesis Chapter 1 in that after Jehovah Elohiym has formed man He “plants” a garden named Eden located eastward, and then “takes the man” and “places” him the garden to maintain and cultivate it.

     

Genesis 2:15-17 Then Jehovah Elohiym took the man and put him in the garden of Eden to tend and keep it. And the Lord God commanded the man, saying, "Of every tree of the garden you may freely eat; but of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil you shall not eat, for in the day that you eat of it you shall surely die."

    

There’s no way to know how many years Adam lived in this garden, and I believe it’s even possible that Adam was not one single man, but rather an entire race of mankind. According to author Zen Garcia, man has already existed throughout 3 Ages, the first being what he labels the “pre-Adamic Age”; the second being the “Garden of Eden Age”, where mankind lived inhabiting a “light” body before the fall of man; and the third being the Age after the fall of man, after Adam and Eve lost their “light” bodies and were expelled from the Garden of Eden. I agree that something happens to man on a large and significant scale in that Adam was first formed as a hydrogenous race of man. The word “man” used in the Bible was translated from the Hebrew word “Adam”, which means “man”. I believe it could have been possible that this race of man was yearning for a way to “love another” on an intimate level which Adam was not finding possible. Thus in verse 18 Jehovah declares, “It is not good that man should be alone.” It is at this point when Jehovah began to create animals that were more suitable as companions for the man to love; thus we begin to see the appearance of our modern animals such as sheep, dogs, cats, cows, horses, etc., instead of the man-eating dinosaurs that existed before this time.

     

Genesis 2:18-20 And Jehovah Elohiym said, "It is not good that man should be alone; I will make him a helper suitable for him." Out of the ground Jehovah Elohiym formed every beast of the field and every bird of the air, and brought them to Adam to see what he would call them. And whatever Adam called each living creature; that was its name. So Adam gave names to all cattle, to the birds of the air, and to every beast of the field. But for Adam there was not found a helper suitable for him.

    

After Jehovah Elohiym has “formed” every beast of the field and every bird of the air from the DNA left in the ashes of the ground, Adam is still yearning for a helper that is suitable for him. Thus Eve is cloned from Adams rib, she was not formed from the DNA of the ground, but directly cloned from Adam’s DNA. Not only is Eve a cloned mutation of Adam, but Adam also undergoes a mutation so that the end result is a race of mankind that now appears as 2 different mutations of the original race of man.

     

Genesis 2:21-24 And Jehovah Elohiym caused a deep sleep to fall on Adam, and he slept; and He took one of his ribs, and closed up the flesh in its place. Then the rib which Jehovah Elohiym had taken from man He made into a woman, and He brought her to the man. And Adam said: "This is now bone of my bones And flesh of my flesh; She shall be called Woman, Because she was taken out of Man." Therefore a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife, and they shall become one flesh.

     

We don’t know how God put Adam to sleep or how long he slept, all we can know is that there was a significant development of genetic engineering that occurred. I earnestly believe that God used the womb of a mammal to give birth to the new race, but the Bible does not tell us. The next thing to note is that Adam and Eve are then being described as being “naked”, while not being ashamed of it. Why was Adam, the first race of man, never described as being naked? What does being naked actually mean? I believe that it has a spiritual meaning, and not a physical meaning.

Genesis 2:25 And they were both naked, the man and his wife, and were not ashamed.

In the Bible, being naked always represents a state of shame because it means the person is not covered by the Lord’s robe of righteousness, as in Ezekiel 23:29, and Amos 2:16.

Ezekiel 23:29 They will deal hatefully with you, take away all you have worked for, and leave you naked and bare. The nakedness of your harlotry shall be uncovered, both your lewdness and your harlotry.

Amos 2:16 The most courageous men of might Shall flee naked in that day," Says the Lord.

   

Could it be that Satan had something to do with this? Author Dr. Scott McQuate writes in his book, “The Tribulation”.

 
“And if you are one of the billions of people that think that procreation in its current form requiring intercourse, was an act ordained by the true Creator, because of the natural form of a man’s and woman’s body or because animals also engage in that act, then you have much to learn…find out why that is absolutely not true, even according to the Bible...
     
Dr. McQuate believes that “Yahweh” of Genesis 2 is Lucifer (a female entity), who “stole” Adam’s rib and inserted her own DNA to create Adam and Eve as male and female. If this is so, it could explain why the Hebrews teach that Lilith was Adam’s first wife. Lilith in the Sumerian tablets is Inanna, who was a second generation offspring of Enlil, her father being Enlil’s son Sin, the god of the moon. Lilith is also called the Queen of Heaven in the Bible. She was worshipped by the Israelites, who in return for their worship of her blessed them with food and other blessings.
    
Jeremiah 44:17 But we will certainly do whatever has gone out of our own mouth, to burn incense to the queen of heaven and pour out drink offerings to her, as we have done, we and our fathers, our kings and our princes, in the cities of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem. For then we had plenty of food, were well-off, and saw no trouble.
      

Lilith is also Ishtar, who is the world’s most famous and notorious female devil (goddess). Those of the Roman Catholic Church unknowingly worship her as the Queen of Heaven, and the Mother of God. Could it be that Lilith was the serpent in the Garden of Eden? Dr. McQuate writes in his book:
  

“This dirty bird misused the knowledge of genetics that she had obtained from [Hiram] and proceeded to unlawfully splice her own genetic material…into her new creation of Adam (the worm)…This feminine entity used the secrets that she stole to mold the worm of which I have been speaking, just as we are told Adam was molded. She did so by unlawfully fusing and thereby adulterating his genetics with her own or more accurately, with the knowledge of genetics with which she was pregnant, as in the genetics of her son, Esu. This is the reason she is referred to as the whore, harlot and adulteress in many places in the Bible… meaning someone who has added something that has adulterated or corrupted something that was originally good. This is also why she is inextricably linked to Babylon throughout the Bible as well as to the entity known as Lilith in Isaiah 34:14. The root of the word Babylon in the Greek is Babel and the root of the word Lilith in the Hebrew is Lul. Babel means to mix and Lul, when taken back to the Cuneiform means precisely the same thing, to mix.”

Thus we have a theory by Dr. McQuate that Adam and Eve’s genetics were “corrupted” in the Garden of Eden. We also have a theory by author Zen Garcia that Eve was raped by Satan, who fathered Cain. We also have the ancient Semitic story of Lilith who was said to have been Adam’s first wife.
    
According to Rabbi Jill Hammer’s article published at MyJewishLearning.com, she writes:

“Lilith is the most notorious demon in Jewish tradition. In some sources, she is conceived of as the original woman, created even before Eve.” In an article entitled, “Where Does the Legend of Lilith Come From? Lilith, Adam's First Wife” published at Judaism.about.com, the author writes: “According to Jewish folklore Lilith was Adam’s first wife. Though she is not mentioned in the Torah, over the centuries she became associated with Adam as a way to explain the fact that there are two contradictory versions of Creation in the book of Genesis. In Jewish folklore, Lilith becomes Adam's first wife, who was created at the same time and from the same earth as Adam.”

Lilith is also Ishtar, who is the world’s most famous and notorious female devil (goddess). Those of the Roman Catholic Church unknowingly worship her as the Queen of Heaven, and the Mother of God. Could it be that Lilith was the serpent in the Garden of Eden?

Wikipedia.org provides the following information:

    
“Lilith is a Hebrew name for a figure in Jewish mythology, developed earliest in the Babylonian Talmud, who is generally thought to be in part derived from a historically far earlier class of female demons Lilitu in Mesopotamian Religion, found in Cuneiform texts of Sumer, Akkad, Assyria and Babylonia.”

Details of what exactly happened in the Garden of Eden, the Bible has concealed from us, but it will one day all be revealed to us, however, the Nag Hammadi Codices have a lot to say about the Creation of the Universe and the fall of man. Following are excerpts from the Codex entitled, "On the Origin of the World". 

Note: the reference made to the "modeled forms of the authorities", is referencing Adam and Eve's bodies that were formed by Elohiym. Sabaoth is a reference to Jehovah; and Christ, His Son. Here it explains that after the souls of Adam and Eve had entered into their modeled forms, they were taken captive by the prime parent, who the Nag Hammadi explains as being Satan, who put them under his subjection as slaves.

"Now, Eve is the first virgin, the one who without a husband bore her first offspring. It is she who served as her own midwife. For this reason she is held to have said:
It is I who am the part of my mother; and it is I who am the mother.
It is I who am the wife; it is I who am the virgin.
It is I who am pregnant; it is I who am the midwife.
It is I who am the one that comforts pains of travail.
It is my husband who bore me; and it is I who am his mother.
And it is he who is my father and my lord.
It is he who is my force; What he desires, he says with reason.
I am in the process of becoming; yet I have borne a man as lord."

"...The souls that were going to enter the modeled forms of the authorities were manifested to Sabaoth and his Christ. And regarding these, the holy voice said, "Multiply and improve! Be lord over all creatures." And it is they who were taken captive, according to their destinies, by the prime parent."
