Readers often overlook chapter ten of the Book of Genesis because it consists mostly of genealogy; in this case, accounting for the descendants of Noah, on whom God had grace. [i] Why is that so important? Because the grace that Noah found was Jesus.
The seed of “Jesus” was “planted”
in this new world, a paradise on planet Earth. Noah had become the “husbandman.”
[ii] Husbandry
is the planting and cultivation of plants or animals. As Adam was told to “dress
and keep the Garden,” [iii] he
too was a husbandman. Noah was another “Adam.”
Genesis 4-5 is about the generations of Adam,
and Genesis 10-11 about the generations of the “third Adam,” Noah; and after that
the generations of Abraham, the “fourth Adam.”
The “fifth Adam” was Moses, the “sixth”
David, and then long after, Jesus was the “last Adam.” They all would find
grace, and a new era would begin. Jesus was Son of Man because he was the seed
of the “sixth Adam,” King David.
But what about the “second Adam?”
That would be Seth. He too resided a Holy Mountain, Mount Hermon, and a new paradise
was established there for generations. The Book of Enoch, which is canon in the
eastern church, is about Seth and his generations. Hence the “number of man”
was six with six attempts to establish for God a Kingdom on Earth.
After Jesus, the world would begin
again in the Great Tribulation when the Antichrist comes to rule the new “reset”
world. His number is “666.” He shall be the fake “seventh Adam,” as the number
of God is seven. Jesus is the last chance for a Seventh Paradise on Earth.
Hence, there will be six sets of
generations of mankind and six “Adams” and then the end will come, not immediately,
but after Jesus comes to stay a second time. That Millennial Reign of Jesus will
be His Sabbath (seventh day). He will rest on Earth after six sets of generations
of tribulation, ending in the Great Tribulation.
Jesus is Son of Man through David,
so he would be the “seventh Adam.” However, he is the Son of God so He is the
Image of which the first Adam was made. His born flesh was the “seventh Adam,”
but his Spirit, the “second Adam.” After He was Resurrected, both His Body and
Spirit were the “Second Adams.”
The number of man also represents
murder. Cain murdered first in the commencing the first list of generations. Blind
Lamech murdered second, commencing the second paradise, and the genealogy of
Noah. They sacrificed other men to their “god” Lucifer.
The third world began with
Abraham. In Genesis 22, the story of the “fourth Adam” begins with death as
well. This time, Abraham’s story would commence with death. He was willing
to sacrifice his only remaining son, Isaac, not to Lucifer but to Yahweh.
Instead of Isaac, a ram died. The “fourth paradise” began on a Holy Mountain
just as with Adam on Golgotha (perhaps the true Mount Eden), Seth on Mount
Hermon, and Noah on Mount Ararat.
Abraham’s story truly begins not in
the plain of Ur, but on Mount Moriah, believed to be either Golgotha or nearby Temple
Mount.
The story of Moses begins with Joseph
in a new world (Egypt) then ruled by a kind Pharaoh. The story of Joseph in
Egypt is a “fifth paradise” but its demise also begins with death. Moses killed
an Egyptian, not so much because that man was cruel, but because Satan had
again entered their Paradise. Moses’s life began with a cruel Pharaoh and Moses
as the murderer. But Moses killed to save his kind. That seems noble but was
ignoble because God would need to die to save anyone. However, Moses lived on
in the wilderness of sin on the Plain of Sin.
Then Moses escaped sin and the
wicked Pharaoh to where? Mount Sinai, a great Holy Mountain to this day. Some claim
it to be in Saudi Arabia, but others Mount Eden on the north of Israel. That
makes sense as well because of Lucifer’s plan: “I will exalt my throne above
the stars of God: I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the
sides of the north.” (Isa 14:13).
Why is that important? Because
Satan would desire to be on the Holy Mountain rather than God. That mountain
would not be to the south, but to the north. Although Lucifer desired to be on
the mountain instead of God, He made it only to its base, and in a lifeless
golden calf.
Like all the exoduses from a new
world, this one failed as well. It ended in death, the number of man.
Then Moses died outside the “sixth
paradise,” Israel. Moses had come full circle just as Cain, Seth, Noah, and Abraham.
Israel began with death as well.
Israel is not just what is known today;
it is the entire Kingdom of David, most of the fertile crescent. That hints of
the boundaries of the Garden of Eden. Saul was the first king there, but he was
the murderer. His reign was rampant with the endeavor to murder David. Instead,
David’s evil son, Absalom, would need to die. The “sixth paradise” began with
death as well, and on Mount Moriah, the same location as Abraham’s Holy
Mountain. The Books of Kings and Chronicles
of the kings are the generations of David.
Moses had his generations as
well, but he was humbled. His are traced through Aaron, and they were all
priests. It was Aaron’s seed that killed Jesus, so even those generations ended
in the ultimate murder!
Moses generations were not
through him, though, but his successor, Joshua (Jesus in English). Joshua’s generations
are listed as well.
The most important of the
generations are Abraham’s. It is through his sons Isaac and Jacob. But also, of
Ishmail and Esau. The latter two are important because they are the lines of
the antichristian Muslims.
But the focus remains on Jesus
and the twelve tribes of Israel. They shall have their names engraved on the
gates of Paradise in Heaven. Specifically, the generations of Judah are
important, because through his seed Mary was born and the Son of Man (‘adam)
was born to Mary.
Why is Mary’s progenitors listed
in the Book of Matthew? Because that identifies the Son of Man as the Son of
David, the "Son" of Moses (not biological but spiritual), the Son of Abraham, the Son of Noah, the Son of Seth,
and the Son of Adam.
Jesus is seventh of those. His number
is not “6”. However, the Antichrist shall be for he shall be a murderer. The Devil
was a murderer from the beginning. [iv] Perhaps
the third “6” in “666” is that all the “paradises” were associated with murder.
The number would be “6” of man, “6” of “paradises lost,
and the third “6” for “six deaths” to
start the generations of evil.
Of course, that is mere
speculation, but what have you got? What hope is there? That the number of
Jesus, “7”, is our hope!
