Genesis 1:1 In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth. Hebrew passage: Berashith Bera Elohim Ath Ha Shamaim Va Ath Ha Aretz. Berashith (In the beginning)-Bera (created)-Elohim (God)-Ath (the)-Ha Shamaim Va Ath Ha Aretz (heaven and the earth).
This period of remote and unknown antiquity, is hid in the depths of eternal ages (Prov. 8:22-23). God the name of the Supreme Being, signifying in Hebrew, “Strong,” “Mighty.” It is expressive of omnipotent power; and used here in the plural form, is obscurely taught at the opening of the Bible, a doctrine clearly revealed in other parts of it. The plurality (Job 26:13; Prov. 8:27; John 1:3,10; Eph. 3:9; Heb. 1:2) created not formed from pre-existing materials, the heavens and the earth the universe. After this the narrative is confined to the earth only. Gen. 1:2 And the earth
[(Final Tzaddi Resh Aleph He Vau) Heb. erets, earth, Gr. ge] was
[(He Tau Yod He)] without form darkness the absence of light]

the deep [(Final Mem (Vau vowel) He Tau) Heb. tehom, “chaos” here and also in Gen. 7:11. Linguistic evidence for the word “tehom” is aid to be a counterpart of the word Ti’amat, the name of a pagan goddess, whose sexual union with Apsu in Enuma Elish depicts the Babylonian account of Creation. However there is strong evidence against such a parallel. First the word Ti’amat does not contain the gutteral “h,” which is present in the Hebrew word. One would expect the word to be spelled with an aleph in Hebrew, not a he. Second, the Ugaritic material possesses the word thm, which is evidently the same word that appears in Hebrew as tehom.].

The first utterance of God, the creator of both the light and darkness (Isa. 45:6-7 “...I form the light, and create darkness..”) which he watches over their orderly succession (Psalm 104:20 “Thou makest darkness, and it is night: wherein all the beasts of the forest do creep forth.”; Amos 4:13 “... that maketh the morning darkness, and treadeth upon the high places of the earth, The Lord, the God of hosts, is his name.”).

"In Hebrew, 'one' is 'ehad' and 'first' is 'rishon.' There can be no confusion between the two words. There is no 'first day' in the Hebrew text. It reads: one day, second day, third day, and so on." From the Antiquities of the Jews (chapter 1), "and he named the beginning of light and the time of rest, the Evening and the Morning: and this was indeed the first day; but Moses said it was one day,-- the cause of which I am able to give even now..." Josephus also asserted "Moses wrote chapter 2 and 3 in some enigmatical, or allegorical or philosophical sense. The change of the name of God, just at this place, from Elohim to Jehovah Elohim, from God to Lord God in the Hebrew, Samaritan, and Septuagint." 1

"The Coming of the Gods" Jean Sendy page 172

The correct translation of the first sentence of the Bible Genesis 1:1 should be read as, "In the beginning gods created the heaven and the earth," The correct translation implies that Genesis does not speak of the origin of the universe. In Psalms 8:5 speaking of man "For thou hast made him a little lower than the angels, and hast crowned him with glory and honour (empire of the world)." If one looks at all the various translations of this verse sometimes it is God, sometimes angels or Angel. Thus mortal man is less than a God or angels, but is next in dignity. Genesis in its opening phrase shows the arrival of the "Elohim" (eh LO him) ` , who was a Divine Essence of the beginning and first made our atmosphere or skies. Heaven was a physical realm in the sky and the Elohim referred to as "angels" or ancestors of the tradition. They were recorded as having basic attributes of men such as: Genesis 1:26 “And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness:…” considered to be the original righteousness seen in (Eccl. 7:29) “made man upright; but they have sought out many inventions.” Genesis 1:27 man was fashioned in the image of the Elohim, "So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them." Genesis 3:8 "That evening they heard the sound of the Lord God walking in the garden." Literally the voice of God in some visible form (i.e. walking). Genesis 6:2 sexuality "That the sons of God (fallen angels as used here) saw the daughters of men that they were fair; and they took them wives of all which they chose." Genesis 6:4 "There were giants in the earth in those days..., when the sons of God came in unto the daughters of men, and they bare children to them, the same became mighty men (Nephilim) which were of old, men of renown." In Hebrew the giants implies to reckless ferocity, impious characters who spread devastation’s and carnage far and wide. Genesis 6:6 made mistakes and felt regret "And it repented the Lord that he had made man on the earth, and it grieved him at his heart." God cannot change (Malachi 3:6; James 1:17) but can alter from mercy to judgment on mankind. The Hebrew word, "Elohim," is the Old Testament plural form of "Eloah" and "Eloah" meaning "gods." Eloah and Eloah in the singular form appears forty times in Job alone. The word God (Elohim) in Genesis 1:1 means the "plural majesty of the one God." Genesis 11:7 They came down and confound language "Go to, let us go down, and there confound their language, that they may not understand one another's speech."

The word Jehovah can be used in the singular or plural and, as masculine or feminine. Some of these names include: Jehovah, the God of Israel; Adonai (His Lords); Jehovah (plural); the name-Jehovah; the Voice-Jehovah; Jehovah of Hosts (the 'Man of War'); Jehovah-El-Shaddai (who covenanted with Abraham). Thus Elohim (Gods); Yahweh (LORD); and Adonai (Lord). God (Heb. ‘elohim, el, ‘elyon, shadday, yahweh, Gr. theos). One God of all the earth. Since it is uncertain what vowels should be attached to the Hebrew consonants YHWH that make up the divine name, actual pronunciation must remain hypothetical, but there are reasonable grounds for thinking that the name was Yahweh. “Jehovah” arose by inserting the vowels of adhonai into the consonants YHWH, thus producing a name that never was!

To say that all these are simply the names of one Jehovah is to miss the whole point. In 1 Peter 1:25 “the word of the Lord,” the Greek word for Lord (‘Kurios’) means ‘Elohim, God.’ Genesis 3:22 "And the Lord God said, Behold, the man is become as one of us, to know good and evil......" Genesis 7:1-4 "...For yet seven days more, I (anochi) will cause it to rain upon the earth forty days and forty nights...". Genesis 15:1 "After these things the word of Jehovah came unto Abram in a vision, saying, Fear not, Abram, I am (anochi) a shield unto thee, thy reward shall be exceedingly great." Anochi is the feminine form and Ani is the masculine gender. In Genesis 17:1 Yahweh appeared to Abram, but the revelation vouchsafed was not “I am Yahweh” but “I am El Shaddai.” It was not until Exodus 3:13-15 that Yahweh was opened to Moses. First the name is related to the Hebrew verb “to be”; more characteristically “to be actually present,” “to be a present reality.” Secondly, the form could be translated either “I am actively present” or “I make to be actively present.” Thus “I am who I am” means either “I am actively present as and when I choose” or “I bring to pass whatever I choose.” The Lord identifies himself with redemption, the blood of the lamb, and the choosing out of his people for himself. In Exodus 3-4; 6:1-8 Yahweh is a God that speaks before he is a God who acts. The Elohim were the Sons of God (possibly angels), who controlled the elements, with a mathematical, philosophical, psychic science far beyond even our comprehension today. The Bible shows them spending a whole "day" bringing light back to the earth. A "day" may have been the time it takes for one precession of the equinoxes to make the equinoctial sun pass from one sign of the Zodiac to the preceding one, 2,160 years. So if this bit of logic is true then on the "first day" or "one day" Gen. 1:1-5 they dissipated the opaque clouds amassed by a glaciation age. Restoring light as we know it in a glaciation age would mean dispersing the opaque clouds, causing heavy moisture from increased evaporation. As shown in Job 38:7 the sons of God congratulated each other for the effort to disperse these clouds as they “sang for joy." Also in Genesis 1:4 they (Elohim) saw the light and it was good.

The "second day" Gen. 1:6-8 totally devoted to establishing a condition of torrential rains. The surface of the earth had become a marsh and gradually dry land appeared creating the seas. Josephus Antiquities of the Jews (chapter 1), "He also placed a crystalline [firmament] round it, and put together in a manner agreeable to the earth, and fitted it for giving moisture and rain, and for affording the advantages of dews." In simpler terms it was not 'rain' but evaporation or moisture rising up thus dividing one from the other with air in between the firmament which now allows us to go to the third day when seas and dry land appeared. Crystalline being, relating to, or composed of crystal or crystals. Resembling crystal, as in transparency or distinctness of structure or outline [Middle English cristallin, from Old French, from Latin crystallinus, from Greek krustallinos, from krustallos, crystal]. The Old Testament translates the Hebrew and Greek term as “ice” because the ancients believed that crystal was formed by the process of intense cold (Job 28:17) as it is bright and transparent. The New Testament word for crystal is (‘Krustallizo’) a verb meaning to be of crystalline brightness and transparency, to shine like crystal, is found in Rev. 21:11, where it is said of Christ as the “Light-giver” (‘phoster’) of the Heavenly City. It just says that wisdom cannot compare with it, such as a “sea of glass” or “water of life” (Rev. 4:6; 21:11; 22:1).

Ozone layer is a region of the upper atmosphere, between about 15 and 30 kilometers (10 and 20 miles) in altitude, containing a relatively high concentration of ozone that absorbs solar ultraviolet radiation in a wavelength range not screened by other atmospheric components. Also called ozonosphere. Firmament is the vault or expanse of the heavens; the sky [Middle English, from Old French, from Late Latin firmamentum, from Latin, support, from firmare, to strengthen]. The Firmament (Heb. raqia’). The Hebrew word suggests something stretched or spread out like a curtain figuratively as Heb. doq, literally, “gauze, a mist or haze” in (Isa. 40:22) “It is he that sitteth (God enthroned above) upon the circle of the earth (it’s orbit), and the inhabitants (people) thereof are as grasshoppers; that stretcheth out the heavens as a curtain (like a canopy), and spreadeth them out as a tent to dwell in.” It corresponds to the “empty space” of Job 26:7 “He stretcheth out the north (northern skies) over the empty place, and hangeth (suspends) the earth upon nothing.” Our English word “firmament” does not correctly suggest the real meaning of the Hebrew word. NIV translates it as “expanse.” Basically Genesis 1:6-7 shows the firmament as an expanse - similar to beating out as a plate of metal; a name given to the atmosphere from its appearing to an observer to be the vault of heaven, supporting the weight of the watery clouds. By the creation of an atmosphere, the lighter parts of the waters which over-spread the earth’s surface were drawn up and suspended in the visible heavens, while the larger and heavier mass remained below. Van Allen belt is either of two zones of high-intensity particulate radiation trapped in Earth's magnetic field and surrounding the planet, beginning at an altitude of about 800 kilometers (500 miles) and extending tens of thousands of kilometers into space [After James Alfred Van Allen (born 1914), American physicist].

On the "third day" Gen. 1:9-13, The oceans were formed and then grass, bushes, plants and trees appeared on the dry land which helped in returning oxygen too normal. These three days of the Creation seems just like the earth's return to normal conditions after a glaciation. It is also important to note that some form of radiant light would have to be penetrating the atmosphere in order for plant life to resume its chlorophyllous functions and recharge the air with oxygen. Fruit was abundant from the trees which was produced by the earth. An assumption was made by Jean Sendy that the cataclysm of the Ice Age drove any survivors (who ever they may be, probably the Ape-men of the Adapa myth) of the Ice Age deep into caves where they stayed until that point at which plant life reappeared on earth. She referenced that they came 'out of the ground' as stated in Genesis 2. She states that the second chapter of Genesis is a 'flashback' on the outstanding events of the first chapter. Also to be noted that all the achievements so far in Chapter 1 are attributed to the Elohim, and the word Yahweh is not mentioned by name until Chapter 2, in verse 5. Since modern science can prove that man was on earth for hundreds of thousands of years before the Bible was written. This prompts us to view Genesis as the beginning of a specific type of mankind. Now by switching our thoughts ahead to Genesis Two, we find "there was no man to till the ground" or without enough intelligence to till the ground ( Heb. ‘adhamah, ground). Genesis chapter 2 (referenced with Day Three) 2:5 And every plant of the field before it was in the earth, and every herb of the field before it grew: for the LORD God had not caused it to rain upon the earth, and there was not a man to till the ground. 2:6 But there went up a mist from the earth, and watered the whole face of the ground (Gen. 1:12). Mist is a steamy vapor rising from warm, damp ground into a humid atmosphere. NIV “streams.” 2:7 And the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul. (Here more information is supplied about the first pair formed out of the “dust of the ground “ that the substance of his flesh, sinew, and bones, consist of the very elements as the soil which forms the crust of the earth, and the limestone that lies embedded in its bowels. Breath of life, literally, it lives, not only animal but also spiritual life. Not that the Creator literally “breathed into his nostrils the breath of life” but allowed respiration being the medium and sign of life, this phrase is used to show that man’s life originated in a different way from his body – being implanted directly by God. This is seen in Ecclesiastes 12:7 “dust shall return to the earth … spirit shall return unto God who gave it.”). 2:8 And the LORD God planted a garden eastward in Eden; and there he put the man whom he had formed. Garden (Heb. gan, gannah, a covered or hidden place; Gr. kepos), here the old paradise lost by sin, that is to be regained as a new paradise by the people of God Rev. 22:15). Eden was an extensive park or paradise, in which man was put to be trained under paternal care of his maker to piety and usefulness. Earlier Sumerians called this place E.DIN meaning the “Abode of the Righteous Ones” in the Mesopotamia area.

Now back to Genesis One, vegetation already existing, the "fourth day" Gen. 1:14-19 brought Eden. During this day, there was lights in the vaults of heaven to separate day from night. They let them serve as signs both for festivals and for seasons and years. Acknowledged here is that the greater light is our star, the Sun, which will give visible light upon the earth to rule the day. Also the lesser light assumed to be the Moon, which will rule the night. At this point the stars either became made or became visible, your choice. The mapping of the stars as seen from the earth brought a "day of astronomy" and now science would have to separate light from darkness. If the earth was moving through the universe any celestial bodies should have been visible, unless it was moving through something that made them invisible. Did the earth settle in its orbit around the Sun (the great fire in the sky) in the solar system and now allow for a view of the nighttime stars? Did the Sun just return to its present state after the solar system moved out of a Galactic 'cold field?'

"Fossil links whales and land animals in January 1994 an article was released about the Fossil remains uncovered in Pakistan of an evolutionary ancestor of the whale that could walk on land. A possible missing link between land animals and modern whales. J.G.M. Thewissen, a paleobiologist at Northwestern Ohio Universities College of Medicine in Rootstown, Ohio states that the fossil was found in deposits on the floor of an ancient sea, which died about 50 million years ago. It was about the size of a male sea lion and weighed 600 to 700 pounds. This very complete specimen is the first one with enough anatomy to show how the animal was able to move on land and in water. It had large rear feet with fully developed legs. In front, the feet are short, stubby and joined at the shoulder. Modern whales are thought to have developed from animals that lived on land slowly, over thousands of generations, evolved to the whale we know today. The oldest skeleton that is a marine whale is about 40 million years old, whose skeleton is 40 to 50 feet long and had tiny hind feet. At that size it is clear it could not move on land. The first true whale was probably about the size of a big wolf. Blue whales, the largest animals ever, can be up to 100 feet long and weigh 220 tons. "Animals of the Pleistocene Ice age. The modern horse, camel, and elephant first appeared in the Ice Age. The horse and camel originated in North America. Then they crossed the Bering Strait to Asia. Elephants, bison, deer, and bears that evolved in Europe and Asia came to North America. Horses, llamas, giant ground sloths, and armadillos went to South America. Arctic musk oxen and woolly mammoths also ranged as far south as Michigan and New York." "Some of the above mammals began to die out. According to most experts, human beings entered North America about 20,000 to 15,000 years ago. Bison, ground sloths, mammoths and other large mammals lived on until that time, but then these animals soon disappeared. In Europe, however, such animals lived side by side with human beings throughout most of the Pleistocene Epoch." 2

Much time has passed since Darwin and still no one has found the missing link. Darwin only suggested that there was an evolutionary link between ape and man.

In classical Greek hagios was first applied to sanctuaries in Hellenistic times, to gods; then to the Mysteries (e.g., of Dionysos). Hagios came into frequent use from Middle Eastern religions in the occurrence in the LXX as the equivalent of qdsh. Of other Hebrew and Greek words translated “holy,” two must be mentioned. Hebrew hasidh and its Greek equivalent hosios mean “good, kind, pious.” Hasidh has many translations and is translated “holy” in these five verses (Deut. 33:8; Psalm 16:10, 86:2, 89:19, 145:17).

In Genesis 2:4 it states, "These are the generations of the heavens and of the earth when they were created, in the day that the LORD God made the earth and the heavens (compare to Hebrew 11:3)." Hebrews 11:3 “Through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear.” The word "generation" implies a specific time period within the days of the creation and is a good basis for the assumption of each "day" being 2,160 years long. A day in Genesis means literally, "And there was evening and there was morning, a sixth day (or, 'period of time')." Gen. 2:4 These are

It is alluded to in such places as Isaiah 60:2 by the phrase “his glory” and in Romans 9:4 by the phrase “the glory.” Moses calls this the “cloud” in Exodus 14:19. One of the most frequent and suggestive uses of the figure of clouds is in connection with the presence of God. Clouds both veil and reveal the divine presence. God rides on the clouds (Isa. 19:1; Nah. 1:3); he is present in the cloud (Exod. 19:9, 24:16, 34:5). The pillar of cloud symbolized god’s presence and guidance to the children of Israel (Exod. 40:36, Psalm 78:14). A cloud appeared at our Lord’s transfiguration (Matt. 17:5) and at his ascension (Acts 1:9), and it has a place in his prediction of his coming again (Matt. 24:30, 26:64).] the LORD God (Yahweh God) [(Final Mem Yod He Lamed Aleph He Vau He Yod) Heb. ‘elohim, and the LORD is equivalent to IHVH or YHWH.

(continued Seventh Day) Cherubims (the cherubim) [(Final Mem Yod Beth Resh Caph He Tau Aleph) or K(uh)R(oo)V((ih)YM, cherub or cherubim mentioned 12 times in the Holy Bible, are winged celestial beings, one of the second order of angels, usually represented as a small angel, portrayed as a child with a chubby, rosy face. In the NT the Greek word for Cherubim is (‘Cheroubim’) regarded as the ideal representatives of redeemed animate creation. Ezekiel. 1:5-12 to the cherubim with four wings and four faces, but two wings were in the temple. In the Tabernacle and Temple they were represented by the two golden figures of two-winged living-creatures. Found also on the golden lid of the Ark of the Covenant and proceeding out of the Mercy Seat. This corresponds that redeemed men, restored to God on God’s conditions, would have access to the Tree of Life (Rev. 22:14). Psalms 18:10; Ezek. 28:4 suggest on occasion these beings are in view. Also see the visions of Ezek. 10:1-20; 11:22. The Cherubim were more than clouds or statues as seen in Ezek. 9:3; 10:1-22, which show that they are “living creatures.” The four faces of each of the cherubim (1:10) stand for the four “excellencies” of the created order: the lion, the greatest of all wild beast; the eagle, the greatest of the birds; the ox, the greatest of the domesticated beast; and man, the crown of creation. Ezekiel could see, over the heads of the cherubim, the throne of the God, who is thus absolutely sovereign over his whole creation. Ezekiel’s vision explains the OT allusion to the Lord as seated (or enthroned) on or between the cherubim (Psalm 99:1); it is a metaphor of his total sovereignty. Likewise when the Lord rides on the cherubim (Psalm 18:10) all creation is subject to his sovereign rule and “intervention,” and all its powers are at his disposal. In Rev. 4:6-9; 5:6-4; 6:1-11; 14:3; 15:7; 19:4 are “four beast” (Gr. zoa, living creatures) identifying them with the cherubim. To sum up: The cherubim are the living chariots or carriers of God when appearing to men, in winged human form with the faces of a lion, ox, man, and eagle. They never come closer to man than when one took fire in his hand and gave it into the hands of “the man in linen” (Ezek. 10:7). God first peopled the universe, or at least our part of it, with a hierarchy of holy angels, of whom one of the highest orders was the cherubim. One of them, perhaps the highest of all, was “the anointed cherub that coverth,” who was created beautiful and perfect in his ways. This cherub knew that he was beautiful, but pride entered his heart and the first sin in the whole history of eternity occurred.] [(Teth He Lamed Tau Aleph Vau) ”and the flaming”]

Heb. chanaq), fig. to initiate or discipline, dedicate, train up, thus meaning initiated, Chanok, an antediluvian patriarch, Enoch. Now regarding the line of Cain as seen in Gen. 4:17 a son named Enoch, and as seen above means initiated, which connects it to the Enoch, or “the Initiator,” who built a city named after him, which may be seen in later chapters. As one source views this: “The naming of cities and other such landmarks in honor of individuals is very ancient, obviously. Consequently a single name might stand for a city, a river, a mountain, or a country: and in cuneiform literature it was customary to associate with any name some identifying mark or determinative in order to let the reader know whether it was the individual himself or the city or some other feature of the landscape that was intended. In the case where the name stands for a man, the name was preceded by the sign for man. In the case of a city, the name was followed by little mark which has the phonetic value -ki (as seen in the figure to the left). To my knowledge, all place names in cuneiform are followed by this determinative sign. But there is one exception, and this is the city known as "Unuk" (equated with Enoch), which later appears as "Uruk, (Ref. 2) "Warka," and finally, "Perg-", or "Purg-." For those unfamiliar with such changes, the conversion of "wark" into "purg-" follows well-established rules in the development of language and in the transfer of words between languages of a different family.”

Cornwell – Genesis 1-5 Hebrew Translation page 71 - file updated 6/26/98 File found only at “http://www.mazzaroth.com/AlphaOmega/Genesis/Gen1-5.doc” for Volume 1interface. (continued Gen. 4:17 Seventh Day) The point here in Genesis 4:17 is that this was the first city ever to be built, and it did not therefore form one of a class requiring an identifying determinative. As other cities began to be built in the time of Cain, it seems likely that they, too, were named in honor of individuals then alive. But it would soon become apparent that the means of identification needed refining, and the determinatives would begin to be developed and applied appropriately. Yet this one city never required a determinative, being the very first one. The word Unuk persisted for so long in history, reappearing finally in the Greek word Pergos (Perga, apparently a primary word (“burgh”) a tower or castle, a place in Asia Minor, Pergamos, fortified),which, significantly enough in the light of Genesis 11:4, means "tower." Tower, Heb. migdal, mig-dawl’, also (in plural) feminine migdalah, mig-daw-law’, from Heb. gadal, a tower (from its size or height), by analogy, a rostrum, fig. a (pyramidal) bed of flowers, castle, flower, pulpit, tower. Compare to 4024 Heb. Migdowl, mig-dole’, or Migdol, probably of Egyptian origin, Migdal, a place in Egypt, tower. The word tower is the basis of the English word town, thus the basic form purg- has come down into modern Indo-European languages in the form of burgh or the more extended form, borough, a word meaning "city" which can be traced right back to within one generation of Adam to the City which Cain built and named in honor of his son.]

Lamech also had a daughter Naamah, by Zillah. As far as record reveals, this man was the first poet. His song in Gen. 4:23-24 expresses every feature of Hebrew poetry (alliteration, parallelism, poetic diction, etc.). It is addressed to his wives and has been interpreted variously. Lamech spoke a poem in praise of himself to his wives. Some hold that it is noting less than a bombastic boast of revenge on any man who will dare attack him while he is armed with the weapons forged by his son Tubal-Cain. Others, with greater probability, maintain that Lamech, having already killed a man who attempted to murder him, is now claiming immunity on the ground that he acted in self-defense; thus, he logically asserts, his act will receive at the bar of justice a seventy-times-seven acquittal over Cain’s cold-blooded murder of Abel. This is not the Lamech or son of Methuselah in Gen. 5:28-31, a descendant of Seth, who became the father of Noah.].

[The following is a commentary of Gen. 4:22 and 4:23 from the highlights of other research sources: “Earlier in Gen. 4:19, Lamech took unto him two wives, the name of one of which is given as "Zillah." In verse 22, Zillah is said to have borne the compound name of Tubal-Cain, an instructor of every artificer in brass and iron, thus the world's first metallurgist. According to R. J. Forbes, one of the outstanding authorities on metallurgy in antiquity, there was a tribe of people long associated in the ancient world with metal working who were known as the Tibareni (note: Tibereni, Libareni or Libarenoi ). Many scholars identify this as a modified form of the name Tubal, the I and the r being interchangeable between dialects and often not even distinguished within a dialect. In his commentary on Genesis, Marcus Dods points out that things have been so faithfully perpetuated in the East that the blacksmith of the village Bubbataez-Zetua referred to the iron sparks struck off while working at his forge as "tubal." We may go a step further than this by observing that, in ancient Rome, the name of the individual who came to be constituted as the god of the Tiber (a river whose name seems again to recall Tubal) was the well-known Vulcan, whose forges were the volcanoes. Vulcan is associated with fire and the working of metals, later appearing as the divine Smith of the Roman Tubilustrum. He is said to have been a cripple, having been thrown out of heaven by his father Jupiter as a punishment for having taken his mother's side in a quarrel. From my own research: The Roman Vulcan (Latin Volcanus, Vulcanus, Greek Hephaistos or Hephaestus) the god of fire, sun, thunderbolts, and metalworking. The Greeks describe this deity as having a deformed walk and a bearded man with a conical hat wielding a hammer and tongs. Thus a son of Hera and Zeus, which promotes his deity as the god of blacksmiths and fire, the divine smith. Originally a thunder god, and the Greek mythology poses his sons to be the Cabiri (Dactyls - Divine beings (fingers) who assisted Rhea in the birth of Zeus, these are related to the mysterious Cabiri, tutors of Orpheus, and magic at Ephesus). Of interest to note is in Acts 17:17, while in Athens, Paul had his daily disputations with the citizens, the temple of Hephaestus could be seen in the background. Auriga was a charioteer, identified with Hephaestus (Roman Vulcan) god of fire and metalworking, or his son, Erechtheus, both of whom were lame. As to Vulcan’s connection with the future Egypt, we find Ptah, as the god of artisans and artists, designers, builders, metal workers, architect and masons. Ptah married Sekhmet, their son was Nefertem, and Imhotep was adopted as their earthly child after his deification. Ptah is linked with Apis, the sacred bull. It is said that Ptah, in the form of celestial fire, mated with a virgin cow who gave birth to Ptah himself in the shape of a bull. A description of Ptah is the sovereign god of Memphis, ancient capital of Egypt, Ptah is shaven-headed, mummified man. He was popular with the kings of the 19th Dynasty (Set I, Ramseses II) as the third most important god in Egypt. His priest claimed Ptah made the world. He was famous for defeating the Assyrians. He is shown as a dwarf with misshapen legs, like other lamesmith gods. He is also allied to Tanen, and ancient earth god, and to Seker. In Genesis 4:23, there is the always-puzzling story of how Lamech took vengeance on a young man who had injured him in some way "wounding him." Lamech's son was Tubal-Cain, and it would not be at all difficult to imagine how, by simply dropping the initial consonant tu--, the name "Vulcan" might easily have arisen from the Hebrew T(oo)V(ah)L Q(ah)Y(ih)N. This son V(ah)L Q(ah)Y(ih)N was subsequently deified. In this first of all biblical genealogies, it is stated that Lamech had two wives, one of whom was named Zillah. By making a further quite reasonable assumption namely, that it was with Zillah that Lamech had quarreled and that it was Zillah's part which Vulcan (as we may now call him) had taken we find a possible reason why, in the struggle with his father, the son had ended up as a cripple and had been turned out of the house, leaving behind him an enraged and wounded father. If this is allowed, one further interesting discovery emerges. In many societies, polygamy is common, and where this occurs it is customary to call the children, as a means of more precise identity, after the name of the mother rather than the father.

(continued Seventh Day) Thus, while Tubal-Cain was undoubtedly the son's given name, he may very well have been more readily identified by his contemporaries simply as Zillah's son. In a Semitic form of speech, this would appear as "Bar Zillah," i.e., "son of Zillah." The curious thing is that the Sumerian word for "iron" is found to be Parzillu or Barzillu, which would appear to be nothing less than a further link between subsequent tradition and this early genealogy, bearing a remarkable testimony to its historicity. Sumerologists have often expressed curiosity about the origin of this word for "iron." Another Greek myth of Phaethon (Latin Phaeton, son of the first sun god Helios, or Apollo who came later) who while driving his father’s chariot of the Sun across the sky, lost control of the steeds. Zeus sensing the world was in danger hurled one of his thunderbolts, killed Phaethon, who then fell into the river Eridanus. As to Hyperion (a Titan), whose task was to guide the sun across the sky in his chariot, brother of the Roman goddess of dawn, Aurora and by his wife Theia was the father of Helios. In other sources Phaethon was a Twin hero who was born of a virgin in Ethiopia, he was told by his mother that his father was Phoebus, the god who drove the solar chariot. He went in search for him in Persia and India to find the palace of the Sun. He eventually found him and desired his father’s chariot. Finally he let him ride the solar chariot. He lost control of the chariot which wildly grazed the heights of the sky and startled the remotest constellations. The Great and Little Bear had been scorched. The Serpent lying curled about the polar stars grew warm and fierce. Bootes took flight with his plow. The Scorpion struck with his tail. The chariot crashed into the earth burning nations, the people of Ethiopia became black and Libya became a desert. Mother Earth pleaded with Jove to save the land by destroying the Chariot with a thunderbolt. Phaethon fell into the river Po and died, the Naiads put his body into a tomb. In the Nordic version we find Bran “The Blessed”; a hero god meaning “raven.” At sea he nets a god Manannan driving a chariot. As to Egypt, it is Anhur (Anhert, Onouris) a sky god associated with Shu, interpreted ‘skybearer,’ or ‘he who leads that which has gone away.’ He was a warrior with creative power of the sun and had a chariot. Married the goddess Mehit. A man with both arms raised, wearing four straight feathers on his head and sometimes holds a spear. His cult was at Sebennytus and This. In the Middle East Hvare-Khshaeta was a Chaldean sun god, who rode across the sky in a chariot drawn by swift horses. Atar a son of Ahura Mazda, he guarded the chariot of the sun on its daily journey. God of the ancient fire cult of the Aryans which survived into the Mazdaism of the Persians. Also see Shamash Mesopotamian sun god, in Sippar and Larsa the god of divination. Son of the moon god Sin, brother and husband to Ishtar. Shamash is shown as a four-rayed sun, or a winged sun-disc. His sons were Kittum (truth) and Mesharum (justice). He lived in the mountains to the east and every morning his door was opened by scorpion-men. With his saw and his driver Bunene they rode his chariot across the sky. The Arabic word for sun is shams. The Sumerian name for Shamash was Utu. A Moabite stone, erected by Mesha, king of Moab, dates back to c. 850 B.C. The basalt slab carries over thirty lines of writing in ancient Moabite. The name Yahweh is mentioned in line 18. The stone is significant for the language and syntax of Moabite (Carta, Jerusalem). Putting all these things together, one has a remarkable series of fragments of information set in the form of a genealogy shedding a wonderful light on tradition, in which there is a continuity of name forms all related in meaning or association to a form of metalworking that is very ancient, and attached to a deity who had the strange experience of being ejected from his home and being made lame for taking his mother's part in a quarrel with his father. This genealogy is certainly worth studying very carefully, and I suspect that Lamech's other wife, Adah, will also prove in time to shed unexpected light on early events, along with Tubal-Cain's sister, Nahma (Naamah, Heb. na’amah, pleasant, N(ah)A(uh-ah)M(aw)H, the feminine of Naam). I cannot believe that such detailed records from within a generation or two of Adam have been so perfectly preserved by accident. God had some purpose in mind: we have yet to discover what it was.”]

Of Giants and Demons “There is one further observation I should like to make about the genealogy of the line of Cain as opposed to the line of Seth. In this one section of the paper I must confess that I am not certain that the text warrants what I am reading into it. Of the descendants of Cain, we are never told of their death. This might be simply the result of the fact that we are not given their age. But there were many subsequent historical figures in the Old Testament who were either enemies of the Lord's children or, though actually Israelites, were without faith, yet these people have their deaths recorded even though we are not told how old they were when they died. There are those who believe that Cain was supernaturally born of Eve through the agency of Satan, who thereby hoped to present the Antichrist, supposing that Abel was actually the Promised Seed. The Hebrew of Genesis 4:1, 2 has always presented problems to the translator; it almost seems as though Adam knew his wife only once in spite of the birth of two children who are not presented to us in usual terms reserved for the birth of twins. There is a belief--and one still preserved by many primitive people -when twins are born, one of them is actually a child of the devil. Having no means of identifying which child is the evil one, such societies customarily insisted that all twins must be destroyed birth. Now, however fanciful such an idea may be, we are not together without some warrant for holding it in this instance in light of other passages of Scripture that bear upon the subject. example, we are told that Cain was "of that wicked one" (I John 3:12), a curious Greek phrase which in other contexts implies something more than merely being a servant of Satan; the phrase is employed when speaking of the Lord's supernatural conception “the Holy Ghost" (Matt. 1:20). If we attach any importance to ancient traditions, we may observe that the legendary giants of antiquity were believed to have had supernatural birth and to have enjoyed a kind of super-natural life. They lived and continued to grow in size as long as they lived, and because they lived for such lengths of time they became giants in size and assumed to have vastly superior knowledge. If these beings were descendants of one supernatural born, they may have formed a race of giants and given rise to the tradition which seems to be reflected in Genesis 6:4. These men we not merely giants in size, but were also men of renown. And certain one gets this feeling of those who are listed as Cain's descendant since they did not die naturally, they were surely capable of being slain - as Goliath was. In Matthew 24:39, which speaks of the circumstances of the Flood destroying the old world, we are told, not that they died in the Flood, but merely that they were "taken away." There are many people who believe that demons are disembodied spirits of human-like creatures, who seek embodiment again because for some reason they have not been "laid to rest" like the spirits of ordinary men. It is a curious fact that demons were notable for their physical strength, and it is also a curious fact that they had for some reason a fear of water. The instance of the Gadarene swine could conceivably be a case where the Lord permitted the evil spirit to enter animal bodies only because He knew that the animals would react to rid themselves of those who possessed them. It is a curious fact, too, that the Lord should have said that when the evil spirit gone out of a man, he goeth through waterless places (so the Greek seeking rest (Matt. 12:43). And it is another curious fact that in the day of judgment death and hell will deliver up its dead, but the sea will also deliver up its dead (Rev. 20:13). Perhaps these things are not really related in the way I have implied. On the other hand, such connected clues often lead a reader into new and fruitful lines of fresh inquiry.

The son of Jared (Gen. 5;18) and father of Methuselah (Gen. 5:21-22; Luke 3:37). Abram walked “before God” (Gen. 17:1), but of Enoch and Noah alone it is written that they walked “with God” (5;24; 6:9). Walking with God is a relic of the first paradise when men walked and talked with God in holy familiarity, and it anticipates a new paradise (Rev. 21:3; 22:3-4). The secret of Enoch’s walk with God was faith – the ground of his pleasing God, and this was the ground of his being “taken from this life, so that he did not experience death” (Heb. 11:5-6). The bright part of Gen. 5 is Enoch’s walk with God and translation without death. He typifies the saints living at Christ’s coming who will be removed from mortality to immortality without passing through death (1 Cor. 15:51-52). His translation out of a wicked world was an appropriate testimony to the truth ascribed to him in Jude 14-15, “See, the Lord is coming … to judge everyone.”]:

His faith is attested by the name he gave his son, Noah (meaning “rest”), and by the hope of “comfort” (5:29) that he anticipated in his son’s life. Thus, basing his faith on the promised deliverance from the Adamic curse (3:14-19), he foresees, the coming of One of his seed (cf. 1 Chron. 1:3; Luke 3:36) who will remove that curse (cf. Rom. 8:18-25). He died at the age of 777.].
