Leviathan turns out to be a compound word. It is made up of the two words
Levy, and Aten. It is related to the Hebrew word Attenah, which means; ‘enlightenment’.
There was a monotheism in ancient Egypt. it was instituted under the pharaoh Amen-Hotep IV. in the midst of his reign, he became convinced through one of his advisors (Zaraph-Panaea; the biblical patriarch, Joseph) that there was a Single Source of All things. The Egyptian record tells of how the pharaoh then changed his name to Ahken-ATEN. which means, Enthusiastic for enlightenment.
Ahkan -Aten outlawed all of Egypts gods, and goddesses, hoping to bring enlightenment to all of his people. This angered the priests and priestesses, and they later took control of Egypt.
Ahken Aten had outlawed RA, the god of the Sun. therefore, ATEN is NOT a Solar deity at all.
Its’symbol is a circle, or a disc. it represents the source of Life. Ahkenaten’s symbol was the disc with Falcon wings. But there was also a symbol of the Aten with tWO SERPENTS protruding from it. Levy-ATEN. Unified to The Light.
The tribe of Moses, and Aaron was the Tribe of Levy.
When Ahken Aten died all who had believed in Aten were enslaved, by the polytheistic pharaohs who retained their power through Enforced Ignorance, and superstition.
The Sword of God is the Truth. truth has a sweet side and a very bitter one.
To the governments of Man (The Beasts of Daniel are Empires) are very afraid of the truth, for it sets the average people free from their ignorance. To those governments that have enforced ignorance, and the churches that have promoted superstition; Truth is a very Terrifying Monster indeed.
Two Serpents=Two Messiahs (both add to 358)
In christian terms: Son of God, and Son of Man
In Jewish terms: Messiah ben Joseph, and Messiah ben David
Two different vessels, same Spirit…(See: Revelation 3:12 last four words)
Most people who study the Bible these days, are viewing it through many levels of confusion. Translational, Linguistic, and conceptual. The Hebrew bible was written by Israelites, not Greeks, not Romans, and definitely not by English speaking people.
The Israelites were not pagan, and had walked away from mythical gods and goddesses. The Hebrew Bible is written in the genres of Historical, Narrative, and Salutation. There are four main levels of interpretatting the Bible. Literal (P), Allegorical (R), Metaphorical (D), and Hidden (S). Together these spell PRDS (Pardes) which means ‘Orchard’.
By this thinking, if the Garden of Trees (Eden) represents the teachings of many nations, and Adam means Mankind; then the Serpent must therefore represent the powers of Words. In that case it was the power of deceptive words that enticed Eve to bite into the tree of Judgement.
Elsewhere in the text: Fiery Serpents = words of rebellion, and anger
Two egyptianserpents= words of pain and confusion
Bronze Serpent= Words of healing shining through the
light of humanity
The twisting of the intention of the words of the texts, began around the time of the Greek Empire. It was called ‘Hellenism’. This was where the idea of a Devil, and a place called ‘Hell’ came from, not the Hebrew Bible in it’s original form. The Creator of the Hebrew bible is Not another Zeus. It is more a Verb, than a Noun. To know YHVH is to DO it, this is the gateway to understanding Moses The Prophets, and yes, even Jesus of Nazareth correctly. May He who is One bless thee greatly in the days to come. [Jesus’New Name (from Rev. 3:12) is Elian of Cuba) Are you awake yet?
