    Something to keep in mind, Moses (the author of Genesis) was Egyptian. Raised as a prince of Egypt, he'd have been educated in all Egyptian beliefs and taught hieroglyphics, etc. The Hebrew people he was writing to, were also Egyptian and had incorporated many of their beliefs into their own and worshiped their gods. They likely would have understood references to Egyptian ideologies and symbolisms. It would make sense that the connection between Genesis iconography and Egyptian culture would be very strong and would have been a common frame of reference when Moses wrote to the Hebrews to explain complicated topics, theologies and beings.

      It however has to be remembered that according to the Supplementative hypothesis (the most plausible one for Christians), some parts of the Pentateuch were probably added after Moses. There were also originally two Mosaic writings: the general writings written during his life, and the Book of Law, uncompleted by his death, which contained the core of Deuteronomy and some later writings from the time of Joshua.

    The true teaching of the Bible is very rare these days. God has used technology and the internet and TH-cam to bolster his preaching. Anyone can learn from the comfort of their own home or if they're old and rather disabled like me. It is quite a blessing to be able to learn like this even in old age. Thanks so much.

Thou hast been in Eden the garden of God; every precious stone was thy covering, the sardius, topaz, and the diamond, the beryl, the onyx, and the jasper, the sapphire, the emerald, and the carbuncle, and gold: the workmanship of thy tabrets and of thy pipes was prepared in thee in the day that thou wast created. Thou art the anointed cherub that covereth; and I have set thee so: thou wast upon the holy mountain of God; thou hast walked up and down in the midst of the stones of fire. Thou wast perfect in thy ways from the day that thou wast created, till iniquity was found in thee. By the multitude of thy merchandise they have filled the midst of thee with violence, and thou hast sinned: therefore I will cast thee as profane out of the mountain of God: and I will destroy thee, O covering cherub, from the midst of the stones of fire. Thine heart was lifted up because of thy beauty, thou hast corrupted thy wisdom by reason of thy brightness: I will cast thee to the ground, I will lay thee before kings, that they may behold thee. Thou hast defiled thy sanctuaries by the multitude of thine iniquities, by the iniquity of thy traffick; therefore will I bring forth a fire from the midst of thee, it shall devour thee, and I will bring thee to ashes upon the earth in the sight of all them that behold thee.

      El Shaddai means God Almighty in Hebrew
      It comes from the Akkadian word shaddu which means mountain
      The Arabic word for mountain is sana
      Sana means thread of summer in Japanese
      Sana means eternity in Sanskrit
      The Ancient Jews believed that the earth(cosmos in Greek) was flat
      Albert Einstein modeled the cosmos with an infinite flat sheet of space/time
      A black hole is an infinite pit in space/time
      An infinite mountain in space/time would be an infinite white hole.
      Dark Energy and Dark Matter can be explained by finite quantum spinning white holes(tachyons) that exist for a few planck instances.
      Some scientists believe that the big bang was a white hole
      If God is an infinite white hole than the Father would be the infinite omnilarity of the white hole, the Son would be the infinite tachyon, and the Holy Spirit would be the infinite tachyonic wave(space)
      Space does not expand: The cosmos is shrinking while space is constant. This means that the speed of light is shrinking each planck instant in a way that makes it appear constant
      If the cosmos is shrinking then the density of energy is increasing.
      This means that all energy will become a black hole because of Schwarzschild radius
      The beginning of the big bang had 0 entropy which means 100% of the universe was light
      The universe now has less than 5% light
      Conclusion the 3 dimensional cosmos is inbetween an infinite infinitely dimensional white hole and an infinite 0 dimensional black hole.

Thus, culturally appropriate depictions of Jesus are perfectly fine and healthy. Why some feel they need to make a big deal about it and think there must be some kind of magic ju-ju in how his name is pronounced, I have no idea. Sure, his name was pronounced _Yeshua_ by his contemporaries while walked the earth, but the God-breathed scriptures written in Greek have his name as Ιησους, so it just doesn't matter.

      @@mexican-americanmale3035 if the fruit actually gives us knowledge of good and evil and hence discernment, then the serpent is not bad but if the forbidden fruit refers to meat (animal flesh) then the serpent is an enemy. The reason I think its meat is because in Gen 1:29, the diet God gave humans did not include meat. If both creation stories are consistent, then the forbidden fruit is meat. When Eve (women) feed Adam (men) food that has meat, the resultant is the punishment that 'men' shall rule over 'women'. This dominion of men over women would totally come to an end when women stop feeding their husbands meat (forbidden fruit). That's one way I look at the Adam and Eve allegory.

      El Shaddai means God Almighty in Hebrew
      It comes from the Akkadian word shaddu which means mountain
      The Arabic word for mountain is sana
      Sana means thread of summer in Japanese
      Sana means eternity in Sanskrit
      The Ancient Jews believed that the earth(cosmos in Greek) was flat
      Albert Einstein modeled the cosmos with an infinite flat sheet of space/time
      A black hole is an infinite pit in space/time
      An infinite mountain in space/time would be an infinite white hole.
      Dark Energy and Dark Matter can be explained by finite quantum spinning white holes(tachyons) that exist for a few planck instances.
      Some scientists believe that the big bang was a white hole
      If God is an infinite white hole than the Father would be the infinite omnilarity of the white hole, the Son would be the infinite tachyon, and the Holy Spirit would be the infinite tachyonic wave(space)
      Space does not expand: The cosmos is shrinking while space is constant. This means that the speed of light is shrinking each planck instant in a way that makes it appear constant
      If the cosmos is shrinking then the density of energy is increasing.
      This means that all energy will become a black hole because of Schwarzschild radius
      The beginning of the big bang had 0 entropy which means 100% of the universe was light
      The universe now has less than 5% light
      Conclusion the 3 dimensional cosmos is inbetween an infinite infinitely dimensional white hole and an infinite 0 dimensional black hole.
      Good does not need evil to exist
      Black Holes are not eternal because of Hawking radiation
      If you don't abide in Jesus Christ and the Trinity you will be deleted
      You have the choice to be loved everlastingly or to suffer infinite entropy as your last memory that seems forever because 0 time is eternal to a tachyon

      Gonna wanna go back to the books on EM ... which is the coaxial longitudinal pulse perturbation that is light ...the magnetodielectric governs all and all is light (ie. Illumination)
      A black hole is neither black nor is it a hole. It’s a sink into counterspace... ie. Inertial centripetal convergence (inertia in acceleration)
      Magnetism is the opposite via force in motion vector ...centrifugal divergence
      The two are necessitated and they form the hypertrochoid (inverse throw of a sphere/torus is the hyperboloid counterspatial vector...it’s necessitatively so and it’s all a geometrical as above so below illusion of polarity)

      Dr. Noel Weeks, once Senior Lecturer of Ancient History at the University of Sydney, critiquing Dr. Walton’s take on Ancient Near Eastern texts: “In summary I am not impressed by the whole approach…. There is no recognition of the difficulty of discerning a uniform mind of the ANE. Individual extra-biblical texts are turned into representations of the whole huge chronological and cultural span. Even more striking are claims that are simply false.”[7]

      I've studied this for a long time, and yet I am torn as to whether or not the Nachash in Genesis 3 is the same as Lucifer (Satan, The Adversary, who rebelled, etc.) who tempted Eve. Is it that Lucifer, HIMSELF, is a Nachash class of being or was it he, HIMSELF, who did the tempting/smooth-talking of Eve in the Garden, or is it that the Adversary/Lucifer/whatever "possessed" or somehow "coaxed" this "Serpent" (nachash) into tempting Eve. So, in essence, is it literally Satan who's doing the tempting, or is it a conspirator of Satan's who did the tempting FOR Satan? And if it's the latter, why would Lucifer do it that way, and not just do it himself? Your thoughts?

    Bill Maher should see this. He is fond of mocking the "talking snake." If he only knew the sophistication of what he mocks. But of course, he wouldn't find this the least bit compelling either. Such is the lot of mockers.

    Awesome! Been getting some downloads about this as well... And do believe that these dragons/seraphs/jinn are a race of beings created before us humans as the 'keepers of earth' with free will and the ability the replicate, but are made of 'fire'/spirit/qi and hence non-physical.
    Dust, sheol etc. Also refer to 'the desert' which is a metaphysical place in the underworld which is characterized as a place without the presence of God... Death, dryness (no water of life) etc. You will see this place referenced many times as the 'desert' or 'wilderness' and where demons go and where Jesus was tempted after his fast...

    Really cool video IP, I've been loving the series so far keep up the good work! I just wanted to ask, do you generally hold to Dr Heiser's view on the Divine Council? I'm just curious as I've heard quite a bit about it lately and was thinking of taking a deeper look into it.

    The only thing I would ask you to look into more is Lucifer falling before humans, and not at the same time.

    • @disguisedcentennial835

      The same time theory is definitely not new, but it seems like Lucifer was just cast back to Seol after Eden, and it wasn’t his first time. Also, snakes have been proven to have lost their legs, so it could be he truly was made to slither.
      Either way, I do think there being a massive war in Heaven hints that his fall came before Eden.
      I also think IP accidentally removed responsibility from Eve by saying she had every right to trust him. She knew what she was doing.

    • @blanktrigger8863
      @blanktrigger8863 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      That he fell prior is assumes within the text, so he likely thought it unnecessary to cover that. Likewise, that both Heaven and Earth need to made new indicates that Heaven is slave to sin just like Earth. So that supports a fall before man fell as well. It's just not necessary to cover tbh.

    Absolutely love this video! The best from IP imo so far. This gives me hope for the future of christianity: more sounds contextual Bible reading instead of YEC erroneous interpretations.

    Nachash (the rebel of Eden), the shining one. The mighty cherub. The precious stones were his covering. No wonder Eve was beguiled.
