THE STATE OF EDEN

Adam, according to the letters of his name would not have been a biological man but a threshold creature. “Man” would be his kind but because of metamorphosis due to the sin of the woman, she became dominant as the “mother of all living” (Gen 3:20), replacing Adam as the father of all living. The first male of here kind was Cain, an “ish” man (Gen 4:1). The seed of Cain would have had the mitochondrial-chromosomes of Eve resulting in common mortal Enos-man. To this day, in the Hebrew males are ish and females isha. (i.e., men are not Adamic but Ish-kind.)

Because something got into the female of Adam’s kind, a metamorphosis seemed to have occurred — the two seemed to have morphed angel-like elohim into beast-like ish for the male and isha for the female.

The pictographs aleph-yod-shin in the word “ish” describe a beast-like being with the aleph a source of cellular reproduction, heredity, and physical strength, the yod signifying functional capacity, dexterity, and motor function, and the shin signifying digestion and metabolism. All those functions pertain to biological creatures — beasts — but not to Adam’s kind which are clearly threshold beings. (Of course, AI might not be able to draw a distinction between Adamic man and common man today because of hidden things of the Bible.) We are not Adamic man, but as the Jews realize, Ish men and Isha women.

The habitat of Adamic man was Eden, but the habitat of Ish man worldly, with us not living in the spiritual realm. Adam’s kind as threshold men would have came out of the hedge of safety into the real world. Sin would have been for Adamic kind, them both cast out of a threshold state (Gen 3:24) into the ecological world as living biological organisms in a physical environment. They would not have been driven from any place but would have lost their threshold existence; them caught between the states of heaven and earth in a liminal state of existence.

Scripture points toward Eden, as not just existence in either heaven or earth, but in both or in between, enjoying access to both states of existence.

With God no longer in their once glorious bodies, gravity would have overcome them and as biological creatures after sin, they would have been subject to gravity as the consequences of sin revealed; as an example, “Cursed is the ground for your sake; in sorrow shalt thou eat of it all the days of thy life… in the sweat of your face shall you eat bread…” (Gen 3:17:19).

With the Power of almighty God in them — the aleph in Adam — in the Garden of the Lord, gravity would not have affected them. The two lost that Power because of the decoherence of sin. Adam’s kind were surely transformed from glorious to biologically ordinary with sin. Once angelic-like creatures, they seem to have become merely biological creatures.

No longer was Eden, Eden, but a geographic existence centered around what would become Israel.

Using the metaphoric hidden knowledge in the Edenic pictographs, “Eden” would mean that a perceptual threshold-realm from which emergent beings come forth. It would have been an existence in a state of heaven-earth with all things of each visible to Adam’s eyes as the letter ayin in Eden implies.

The first Book of Adam and Eve (chapter eight) reveals that after being removed from the state of Eden remaining only in the physical world, the two had lost their bright natures, and with it their ability to see heavenly things. They once were in a threshold state between heaven and earth and found themselves alone in the physical world with life already in the womb of Eve (Gen 4:1-3). With that time would have begun for time only exists in the physical world.

Adam would have originally been a threshold creature in the threshold of Eden. Eden was perhaps not a biological habitat but a state of existence. That would mean that all the creatures of the Garden of Eden would have been threshold creatures, and perhaps the visions of UAP which people see in this era.

Any other beings would exist in cognate but non-flesh forms. The other forms of life would have been “cognate” or would have shared the same origin as Adam; meaning that they would have all been God’s creatures, but Adam the dominant one (Gen 1:28) because he had the substance (Elohim) of God in his person.

Eden would not have been in Iraq nor even Israel, but a state of existence between the spiritual and biological. Israel was as much Eden as Iraq, but neither would have been the “Promise Land” (Exod 12:25).

The Promised Land (דָבַר dabar) would be Eden. The Word of God is “Dabar” in the Hebrew. God spoke and all things came into Existence (John 1:1-3). The spoken “land” would not have been physically territory but Eden. Eden would surely have been the real Promised Land and would include both land and Word, or Spirit.

God was surely not speaking of territory of which men still fight for, but His Estate of Eden — a threshold realm, neither here nor there, but of two parts as Enoch revealed (2 Enoch 20).
