GENETICS: Mark of the Beast

Moses as God’s Historian; Understanding Symmetry

Chapter One
The Bible is the Word of God and so is the most valuable and important book ever written. God used specially chosen men to write it. I’m going to keep this study to the Torah, which consists of the first five books of the Tanakh and Moses wrote these books with God’s instructive help. Some feel they are stories to give us a moral compass. Others believe they’re historical accounts, and others call them the spiritual beginning of a religion.
I believe they’re all of these and the stories are true. I hope to bring to you a new understanding of some things as we look at words in depth, and referring to the Hebrew characters, get a valuable perspective. We will take into account historical values, moral standards and spiritual guidelines, based on the premise that Moses spoke directly with The Eternal One, YHVH. Other foundational premises adhered to are: The Torah is truth, and hermeneutics is a correct guideline for studying the Torah.
The main reason I feel that Genesis is so important is because the Creator was defining things…everything. He showed us how He defined things. We also see the patterns of the way Creator related things to Moses. It’s similar to how we have conversations. We make a point, elaborate, and then come back to the beginning to reiterate a point, or maybe to simply confirm it. We see this over and again with Creator.
Genesis 1:1-5 (KJV) 1 In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.
2 And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.
3 And God said, Let there be light: and there was light.
4 And God saw the light, that it was good: and God divided the light from the darkness.
5 And God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. And the evening and the morning were the first day.
In verse 2 the words “moved upon” is from the root, to brood over.
Moved upon Hebrew Strong’s Number: 7363
*Hebrew Word: ‏רָחַף‎
Transliteration: rāḥap
Phonetic Pronunciation: raw-khaf’
Root: a primitive root
Cross Reference: TWOT – 2148, 2149
Part of Speech: verb
*Strong’s Talking Greek & Hebrew Dictionary.

To my mind this is a very interesting verb.
Brood over: Word Origin & History: Old English brod “brood, fetus, hatchling,” from Proto-Germanic *brod (cf. Middle Dutch broet, Old High German bruot, German Brut “brood”), literally “that which is hatched by heat,” from *bro- “to warm, heat,” from PIE *bhre- “burn, heat, incubate,” from root *bhreue- “to boil, bubble, effervesce, burn,” to prepare.
These meanings bring more clarity to us. We can see that the process of creation was completely done by the Elohim, the One true God who by His own definition to us of Himself, is that we cannot fathom how complex and powerful He truly is.

The Spirit is a female noun in the Hebrew. Let’s look at it:

*Strong’s Talking Greek & Hebrew Dictionary.

So we see, the female Spirit (Ruach) brooded over the waters like a mother birthing or preparing to bring forth life. . .Then the Creator speaks!

My reckoning of these first verses is that the earth, being without form and void, came into order and true symmetry largely by the light, but other components came together in the action of God speaking. When God spoke these words and they came forth from God, they contained God’s breath, (Ruach) along with sound, vibrations, colors, illumined power, and virtually all forces of the universe, and all life forms were within this breath whether physical, soulish or spiritual. (This is not an exhaustive list of components by any means.) The action carried with it the purpose of God. It was the purpose of God coming to fruition in conquering power. Light overcomes darkness, chaos and confusion become order with the ability to produce the results God desired.
Conservative Judaism suggests that the light is a Divine Presence being released onto the planet. They assert that since the sun and other interplanetary “lights” were not created until the fourth day, this is a very different form of light from our sun or other stars. This conforms to Christian beliefs as well. Gospel of John 1:1-14 (KJV) 1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
2 The same was in the beginning with God.
3 All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made.
4 In him was life; and the life was the light of men.
5 And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not.
6 There was a man sent from God, whose name was John.
7 The same came for a witness, to bear witness of the Light, that all men through him might believe.
8 He was not that Light, but was sent to bear witness of that Light.
9 That was the true Light, which lighteth every man that cometh into the world.
10 He was in the world, and the world was made by him, and the world knew him not.
11 He came unto his own, and his own received him not.
12 But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name:
13 Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.
14 And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.

The following excerpt is from Physicist, Brian Greene’s book, “The Fabric of the Cosmos.” Chapter 8, p.219:
“In fact, we will see that the history of the universe is, to a large extent, the history of symmetry. The most pivotal moments in the evolution of the universe are those in which balance and order suddenly change, yielding cosmic arenas qualitatively different from those of preceding eras. Current theory holds that the universe went through a number of these transitions during its earliest moments and that everything we’ve ever encountered is a tangible remnant of an earlier more symmetric cosmic epoch. But there is an ever grander sense, a metasense, in which symmetry lies at the core of an evolving cosmos. Time itself is intimately entwined with symmetry. As will become clear, the practical connotation of time as a measure of change, as well as the very existence of a kind of cosmic time that allows us to speak sensibly of things like “the age and evolution of the universe as a whole,” rely sensitively on aspects of symmetry. And as scientists have examined that evolution, looking back toward the beginning in search of the true nature of space and time, symmetry has established itself as the most sure-footed of guides, providing insights and answers that would otherwise have been completely out of reach.”
Brian Greene brought the world the Super String Theory which reconciled the problem that physicists say existed before it, regarding the microscopic world and Quantum Mechanics. Quote from his lecture: WHAT MATTER IS MADE OF— Above all, matter consists of atoms which are themselves composed of electrons swarming around a central nucleus. String theory adds a new ultramicroscopic layer by declaring that subatomic particles actually consist of tiny loops of vibrating energy, “strings.”
Einstein’s General Theory of Relativity, which is applicable to things very big—gravity, stars, galaxies—became one of the two pillars upon which 20th century physics is based. The second pillar is Quantum Mechanics, which describes the microscopic structure of the world—atoms and subatomic particles.
Each of these pillars has been tested for accuracy,” said Greene. “Each comes through with flying colors, and yet, the two theories are mutually incompatible. And that has been the driving conflict in physics for the last half century.
The heart of Quantum Mechanics is summarized by (Werner) Heisenberg’s, ‘Uncertainty Principal’ and that tells us that there are certain features of the microscopic world that we cannot know with total precision. It’s not a limit of technology; there are just some complimentary things we can’t know simultaneously.
For example, Heisenberg showed us that when you look at smaller and smaller regions of space, the amount of energy embodied in that space is known with less and less precision. There is a tremendous amount of roiling, hot, kinetic energy bound up in every little morsel of space and the smaller the morsel the more the energy.
If you’ve got a lot of energy in tiny distances, it means that space is incredibly frothy and wildly undulating, and these undulations are so violent that they completely destroy Einstein’s Geometrical Model of Space, the central principle of General Relativity. On large scales, such as that of galaxies and beyond, these microscopic kinetic undulations average out to zero; we don’t see them. Only when we focus on microscopic distances, do we become aware of the tumult that is going on and realize that it is so severe that Einstein’s theory falls apart. (Greene, 1998)
The conflict continued for half a century until the development of The Super String Theory, (Brian Greene), which reconciles Quantum Mechanics with the General Theory of Relativity.
Modern scientists may not realize or recognize that they are confirming Moses’ account of the Creator’s works at creation, but it seems clear. This excites me and I hope it does the same for you, dear reader. Now, with all this physical illumination, let’s get back to the Biblical narrative.

Darkness was first, so that is the reason we begin our understanding of the start of a new day as evening or upon sundown. YHVH our Elohim established time on Earth when He gave us the calculation of what is a day as seen in verse 5.
Hebrew scholars have agreed by a majority over the millennia that the Torah established definitions of many aspects of the universe from physics to morals. The Creator God is declared in the Shabbat, for instance, so the definition of the Creator cannot be separated from the 7th day Shabbat. Today’s Christian theology declares that Sunday, the first day of the week, is the Sabbath, but then want to say that their God is the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. They have changed an initial aspect of God’s own description and definition of Himself. More about this later, but going back to definitions we read in the next verse about light.
The light is called good by God. Light’s qualities, uses, powers, and all the facets of its definition are probably more than we can describe or delve into in this dissertation, however we’ll look into to it in a small but accurate way.
Light Hebrew Strong’s Number: 216
Hebrew Word: ‏אוֹר‎ Transliteration: ʾôr Phonetic Pronunciation: ore

English Words used in KJV: light(s) 114, day 2, bright 1, clear 1, flood 1, herbs 1, lightning 1, morning 1, sun 1, [Total Count: 123] from (‘owr); illumination or (concrete) luminary (in every sense, including lightning, happiness, wisdom etc.) :- bright, clear, + day, light (-ning), morning, sun.
*Strong’s Talking Greek & Hebrew Dictionary.
Of these words, ‘concrete illumination’ is interesting to note. Consider lightening as something with such power to strike forcefully and overwhelm whatever it meets on its path, and we get a minor glimpse of the enormous power of light. Man is only in the beginning stages of using light to cut away unwanted growths from his body. Lasers are now the standard implement used for many surgeries performed today. Precision is harnessed within power as well.
I also want to look more at the word good in verse 4 which is the first time the word good is found in the Bible.
4 And God saw the light, that it was good: and God divided the light from the darkness.

God is defining everything in this beginning of beginnings. Every word, character jot and tittle is important to how we should draw conclusions about what He said and did and about the world within the universe that we live in.
To my mind, He is defining the light as good and the word good then as the spark that ignited creation. The Good Light is the catalyst for all life and order and structure. He spoke the words, “Let there be light.” The form that was void begins to take shape. The darkness is replaced with the good light. The “Let there be” part is the command of power to be utilized for His Majesty’s purposes. The King of all Creation brought His life, plans, energy forces, purposes and intentions, designs and supreme order to this darkness and void.
We saw the beginning was chaos and void. The Creator brought everything into symmetry. That perfect order is within everything—he designed each and every species of animal or plant in beautiful order and balance. He called it good. That is the definition of what pleased Him–His creation in perfect symmetry. All things made sense. The only rule was to leave the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil alone. Because Adam and Eve disobeyed, God had to rescue the creation by securing enough animals to allow for repopulation.
In the Big Bang Theory, the conjecture is that the universe suddenly concussed and this huge explosion, (some say implosion), occurs and everything changes as a single-celled life form develops. I could apply that basis— the explosion part— to this Biblical understanding and yet that would be where my agreement with the Big Bang ends. Light was considerably more than a mere single cell of life. It carried life in it, with it and it is -of life. The brooding Mother Spirit over the waters…
Understanding the dynamics of speech in a purely physical sense can bring further insight as we explore the complexities of our Creator King’s first work on the plan He had for Earth. For instance, a word study on the breath of God behind and within the words spoken by Him is very interesting. Here is a compilation of verses where the breath of God is found and confirms this understanding:
2 Samuel 22:16 (KJV)
16 And the channels of the sea appeared, the foundations of the world were discovered, at the rebuking of the LORD, at the blast of the breath of his nostrils.
Job 4:8-9 (KJV)
8 Even as I have seen, they that plow iniquity, and sow wickedness, reap the same.
9 By the blast of God they perish, and by the breath of his nostrils are they consumed.
Job 12:10 (KJV)
10 In whose hand is the soul of every living thing, and the breath of all mankind.
Job 33:3-4 (KJV)
3 My words shall be of the uprightness of my heart: and my lips shall utter knowledge clearly.
4 The Spirit of God hath made me, and the breath of the Almighty hath given me life.
Job 34:13-14 (KJV)
13 Who hath given him a charge over the earth? or who hath disposed the whole world?
14 If he set his heart upon man, if he gather unto himself his spirit and his breath;
Job 37:10 (KJV)
10 By the breath of God frost is given: and the breadth of the waters is straitened.
Job 41:21 (KJV)
21 His breath kindleth coals, and a flame goeth out of his mouth.
Psalm 18:15 (KJV)
15 Then the channels of waters were seen, and the foundations of the world were discovered at thy rebuke, O LORD, at the blast of the breath of thy nostrils.
Isaiah 30:33 (KJV)
33 For Tophet is ordained of old; yea, for the king it is prepared; he hath made it deep and large: the pile thereof is fire and much wood; the breath of the LORD, like a stream of brimstone, doth kindle it.
Isaiah 42:5 (KJV)
5 Thus saith God the LORD, he that created the heavens, and stretched them out; he that spread forth the earth, and that which cometh out of it; he that giveth breath unto the people upon it, and spirit to them that walk therein:
One can take a great deal of wisdom from these verses. Verification of the Genesis account is clear along with the multifaceted nature of God’s breath. The reference above in Isaiah 30:33 shows that the breath of God is likened to a stream of brimstone and has the ability to kindle. Again in Job 41:21 we see the same properties of His breath.
Conversely, we see frost is given by His breath in Job 37:10 and the authority to straighten water ways is also shown in this verse.
An excellent concept that comes forth in the Bible is that the breath of God destroys His enemies (which are also ours since He is our Father,) yet, His breath gives life to His own people. This is very encouraging to me.
Though we haven’t exhausted the study and elucidation of the words, Spirit, or light or the word, good—we have given them a decent look. I hope you’ll look into this more on your own, but for now we’re going to move on.
Genesis 1:6-8 (KJV)
6 And God said, Let there be a firmament in the midst of the waters, and let it divide the waters from the waters.
7 And God made the firmament, and divided the waters which were under the firmament from the waters which were above the firmament: and it was so.
8 And God called the firmament Heaven. And the evening and the morning were the second day.
Day two of the creation God creates the surroundings of the globe which consist of a moisture filled atmosphere of various elements which many of us learned about in around 5th grade elementary school. For the purposes of this study, we’ll skim over the science lesson, but suffice it to say that the heavens are the atmospheric elements within the gravitational pull of the globe of Earth as it fits within the confines of the universe. Under the heavens He made the land within the seas.
At the end of the 3rd day He saw that what He created was good.
He’s defining good as the things He created, from powers of and within the good light formed by His vocal sounds and breath and intention and grand scheme.
These next verses give us laws in the Torah regarding seeds and growing plants for food. Mixture is clearly forbidden.
Genesis 1:9-13 (KJV) 9 And God said, Let the waters under the heaven be gathered together unto one place, and let the dry land appear: and it was so.
10 And God called the dry land Earth; and the gathering together of the waters called He Seas: and God saw that it was good.
11 And God said, Let the earth bring forth grass, the herb yielding seed, and the fruit tree yielding fruit after his kind, whose seed is in itself, upon the earth: and it was so.
12 And the earth brought forth grass, and herb yielding seed after his kind, and the tree yielding fruit, whose seed was in itself, after his kind: and God saw that it was good.
13 And the evening and the morning were the third day.
The third day is a special day for many reasons. For one, there are two blessings in this day. For this reason many Jewish people today, marry on Tuesday because of the double blessing. More than this though, is that Creator God dealt with many creations on this day. First He separated out the land from within the waters, for things that would dwell on land and the waters were gathered into Seas for things that would dwell in them.

The words; “the fruit tree yielding fruit after his kind, whose seed is in itself,” forms quite an important phrase. Each time He creates life He specifies that it is to remain of its own kind. The seed is within itself. In this way it will yield the fruit of that type of tree and He does not mix in Creation and God does not permit mixture by mankind.
Moses reiterates this, as God instructs him, citing it as law in the book of Leviticus.
Leviticus 19:19 (KJV) 19 Ye shall keep my statutes. Thou shalt not let thy cattle gender with a diverse kind: thou shalt not sow thy field with mingled seed: neither shall a garment mingled of linen and woollen come upon thee.
Moses wrote the Torah by the power of the Ruach Kodesh. God spoke to him, giving him knowledge and understanding of what things are acceptable, and what things are not. These are defined in Creation, but I am not a physics expert so I will only elaborate as I feel able to, and see correlations to, in the Tanakh.
God is spelling out one thing very clearly so far: Things are to continue as He created them. We need to guard them to ensure it. Genetics is not the science for a God fearing person to be involved in. Yes, that’s a strong statement but it is true, based on the very Words of God the Creator.
So, in today’s culture we say someone’s thoughts, words or actions are either good or bad, but is this a fair assessment of the word good? I submit to you that mankind has changed the definitions, not God. God’s definition of good relates to His creation and clearly one major requirement is that it remains with its kind.
Genesis 1:14-19 (KJV) 14 And God said, Let there be lights in the firmament of the heaven to divide the day from the night; and let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for days, and years:
15 And let them be for lights in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth: and it was so.
16 And God made two great lights; the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night: he made the stars also.
17 And God set them in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth,
18 And to rule over the day and over the night, and to divide the light from the darkness: and God saw that it was good.
19 And the evening and the morning were the fourth day.
If you have any doubts so far that God is defining things and laid them out for us in Genesis, this will dispel them. The above verses, by which the world’s calendars were formulated, are accepted by all cultures around the world. From astronomers to the greatest mathematicians, the matriculation of time derives from these verses of the Creation dialogue.
Genesis 1:20-23 (KJV) 20 And God said, Let the waters bring forth abundantly the moving creature that hath life, and fowl that may fly above the earth in the open firmament of heaven.
21 And God created great whales, and every living creature that moveth, which the waters brought forth abundantly, after their kind, and every winged fowl after his kind: and God saw that it was good.
22 And God blessed them, saying, Be fruitful, and multiply, and fill the waters in the seas, and let fowl multiply in the earth.
23 And the evening and the morning were the fifth day.
We see here again on day five that He is clear about safeguarding His definition of, “after his kind” for each living thing. God is ensuring that man understands the importance of safeguarding life within the parameters of His directions/commandments. He wants them to be fruitful and multiply but the various life forms understand about remaining within their species. God continues in the same narrative with Moses making this again an important aspect of creation.
Genesis 1:24-25 (KJV) 24 And God said, Let the earth bring forth the living creature after his kind, cattle, and creeping thing, and beast of the earth after his kind: and it was so.
25 And God made the beast of the earth after his kind, and cattle after their kind, and every thing that creepeth upon the earth after his kind: and God saw that it was good.
Please, please, note how that in just two verses God says FIVE times; “after his or their kind.” God is serious about this being the pattern of reproduction and multiplying of all living things. Remember that Leviticus 19:19 makes the case even for plants so it’s not limited to creatures only.
Genesis 1:26 (KJV) 26 And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.
We’ll see later on in the Scriptures that the dominion God gave man/woman over the created creatures may have been the cause of a major problem for mankind with regard to the “after their own kind” command from God. Accepting the enormous responsibility of being in dominion over other living creatures, but not keep the commandment regarding multiplying them is a huge infraction that has consequences for hundreds of years. I’ll be making the case for what I’m saying here, so let’s keep going.
Genesis 1:27, 28 (KJV) 27 So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.
28 And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth.
This is the overview of the creation of all mankind and, as is the common way or pattern of the Lord seen throughout the Bible, He goes back and gives a review of the event as we see starting in Genesis 2, with verse 4. The Creator creates man in His own image, both male and female and blesses them. He gives them an instruction to be fruitful and multiply, and replenish the earth and use it as they need or desire. Again God reiterates that they are to have dominion over created sea creatures and land animals. The pattern appears to be that God makes a plan or a design, says it -then does it -or more accurately, it happens.
After He made mankind He wanted someone to keep His garden. The first man He made was a special man. As stated, God made the others, blessed them and sent them on their way. But this one man He made with a special purpose. He breathes into him: his soul became a Living Soul. The breath of the Creator is Divine and has so many elements to it that we cannot define them. This is why the Bible defines Eve as the mother of all living. They were the only pair who He breathed into. In the above verses, there is no reference to Him breathing into these pairs of people. I believe that later when Cain is banished and goes to the Land of Nod, it is from these people that he finds himself a wife.
This is also a pattern of the Creator’s. He makes one man special and gives him personal instructions in order to fulfill His purposes. Then that man and his family are all special as well. Let’s
continue, but we’ll come to a more intense understanding of mankind and many other things as we go along with all of these foundations in place.
Genesis 1:29-31 (KJV) 29 And God said, Behold, I have given you every herb bearing seed, which is upon the face of all the earth, and every tree, in the which is the fruit of a tree yielding seed; to you it shall be for meat.
30 And to every beast of the earth, and to every fowl of the air, and to every thing that creepeth upon the earth, wherein there is life, I have given every green herb for meat: and it was so.
31 And God saw every thing that he had made, and, behold, it was very good. And the evening and the morning were the sixth day.
Here in these verses we read that the original plan of God was that plants were to be the diet for mankind and creatures alike. The end of the sixth day concludes the creation process except for one more thing; He sanctified the 7th day as a rest or Shabbat. He designed it as a day of holy interaction with God and man spending time together. It brings refreshment to the soul.
Genesis 2:1-3 (KJV) 1 Thus the heavens and the earth were finished, and all the host of them.
2 And on the seventh day God ended his work which he had made; and he rested on the seventh day from all his work which he had made.
3 And God blessed the seventh day, and sanctified it: because that in it he had rested from all his work which God created and made.

In verse three we see that God blessed the seventh day which is similar to the blessings that He bestowed on other days, but this is the only day that He sanctified. Sanctifying something causes it to be fundamentally changed. Whenever God calls for something to be sanctified it is a command. Many scholars throughout the millennia believe that God commanded a rest to all creation. My personal belief is that the creation of man was very significant to God because mankind was made in His own image, and once the creation of mankind was completed God wanted to spend time with man, immediately.
Genesis 2:4-7 (KJV) 4 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,
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.
6 But there went up a mist from the earth, and watered the whole face of the ground.
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.
Verse four makes my point that the special man was formed in the beginning along with the others starting back in Genesis 1:26 because Moses is giving us a timeline point: when the heavens and the earth were created. He’s going back to it and retelling it.
In verse seven we see the way God formed the special man. This is a review of the event that happened back in Genesis 1:26, but He gives us more details and revelations of it and gave the man a purpose or job to do. He is a keeper of the Garden.
Genesis 2:8-15 (KJV) 8 And the LORD God planted a garden eastward in Eden; and there he put the man whom he had formed.
9 And out of the ground made the LORD God to grow every tree that is pleasant to the sight, and good for food; the tree of life also in the midst of the garden, and the tree of knowledge of good and evil.
10 And a river went out of Eden to water the garden; and from thence it was parted, and became into four heads.
11 The name of the first is Pison: that is it which compasseth the whole land of Havilah, where there is gold;
12 And the gold of that land is good: there is bdellium and the onyx stone.
13 And the name of the second river is Gihon: the same is it that compasseth the whole land of Ethiopia.
14 And the name of the third river is Hiddekel: that is it which goeth toward the east of Assyria. And the fourth river is Euphrates.
15 And the LORD God took the man, and put him into the garden of Eden to dress it and to keep it.

God puts the special man in the garden that Creator God planted which consisted of every tree that is pleasant to the sight, and good for food. But, I want to focus on verse nine where we first hear about the tree of life and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil.
The tree of the knowledge of good and evil was in the midst of the garden along with the tree of life. Now the next verse shows us that the man is given a command regarding the rules of the Garden. How God wants him to keep it. Let’s read:
Genesis 2:16-17 (KJV) 16 And the LORD God commanded the man, saying, Of every tree of the garden thou mayest freely eat:
17 But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die.
I’ve read many variations on this and I found some of them laughable. Now for this study, if we take the foundational truths we have laid out here, the definition of good being what God created, then we may rightly determine that the definition of evil is defiling it. The knowledge of these is a deep matter. I will give an overview study since I am not a physicist or a Rabbi, but there are scholars and Rabbis who teach the Paleo Hebrew and who can divulge many more truths than I can explain with true confidence.
The tree of the knowledge of good and the knowledge of evil is reconciled as the tree that shows the genetics of creation. In terms we may identify, we can say it is like the matrix of the creation. One could look into the genetics of that tree and see the DNA codes. If one manipulated those genetic codes it would be an evil act. It’s expressly forbidden throughout the creation process to mingle anything God created.
The words, thou shalt not eat of it, אָכַל is translated as eat, however the word can also mean to corrode or malign. Corrode is to defile with elements and malign is a willful act causing damage to something. Either one of these translations is more accurate to the creation story and the fall of mankind. However, since man throughout history has consistently and erroneously defined what good is, he has missed this important and essential fact.
The Creator tells the man that in the day that he “eats of” the tree of the knowledge of good and evil he will surely die. The word, die in the Hebrew, ‏מוּת‎ does actually mean to die. We see that Adam and Eve did not drop dead when they broke the only commandment the Creator gave them. So, we need to examine what actually happened to them.
These next verses are again a review. We see that it is a review because it speaks of when the animals were formed. We are going back to look at the details of Genesis 1:26 again, with the Ruach leading us. Let’s see:
Genesis 2:18-20 (KJV) 18 And the LORD God said, It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him an help meet for him.
19 And out of the ground the LORD God formed every beast of the field, and every fowl of the air; and brought them unto Adam to see what he would call them: and whatsoever Adam called every living creature, that was the name thereof.
20 And Adam gave names to all cattle, and to the fowl of the air, and to every beast of the field; but for Adam there was not found an help meet for him.
Adam is highly favored of the Creator. He’s given the distinction of defining, in word terms, all that God created! This is intimate relationship! This sets Adam apart from all other mankind who God created and blessed and sent out.
I believe that the review we are about to delve into is the process of the way woman is brought into the creation. Many theologians call woman, “The Crown of Creation,” because God brought forth woman directly from the higher element that is man. Man, formed from the earth’s dust is now a higher being than the earth’s dust. Woman coming forth from the superior being, Adam, is at an advantage from the start. She is the direct component of man— a perfect adjunct. And, she is the last of the created.
Adam is again, given the honor of naming the first created woman. The term gives clear definition regarding how she came directly from him as seen in verse 22.
Genesis 2:21-25 (KJV) 21 And the LORD God caused a deep sleep to fall upon Adam, and he slept: and He took one of his ribs, and closed up the flesh instead thereof;
22 And the rib, which the LORD God had taken from man, made he a woman, and brought her unto the man.
23 And Adam said, This is now bone of my bones, and flesh of my flesh: she shall be called Woman, because she was taken out of Man.
24 Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh.
25 And they were both naked, the man and his wife, and were not ashamed.
The Creator says in verse 24 that a man shall leave his father and mother and shall cleave unto his wife and they shall be one flesh. It’s what soon happens in this very story. Father God and Mother Earth; forsaken at the act of the couple’s sin. I hope to bring clarity to this sin in due course. Stay with me.
We as human beings must appreciate this beautiful creation story and its process. Archeologists found drawings and writings of the first special couple in the ancient scrolls, artifacts, pottery, and jewelry of every civilization. I often think we were smarter back then and in our haughty self-important current state, man is now dumbed-down in many important ways.
Theologians speculate verse 25 to mean that they were as innocent as the other created creatures and so had no modesty. They operated in and used all their functions without any feelings of indecency or reticence.
Another school of thought is that the glory or shekinah of the Creator was upon them. The indwelling of the Ruach Kodesh made them glorious and they were clothed in the light of it. Maybe it was a combination of the two; the total innocence and continuous commune with the Creator which caused the glorious “clothing” to keep them from knowing their naked state. The sin will cause many changes in physical condition, spiritual position with Creator and in their personal understanding of their condition. We will explore all these concepts in due course as we see the relativity to them in the fall.
Genesis 3:1 (KJV) 1 Now the serpent was more subtil than any beast of the field which the LORD God had made. And he said unto the woman, Yea, hath God said, Ye shall not eat of every tree of the garden?
Snake walks up to woman and speaks. The description of the snake is that he is more cunning, even shrewd than any other creature in the field. (And we know from the curse, a few verses later, that the snake will no longer be able to walk and is put on his belly by the Creator for the snake’s part in the breaking of the only law.)
Subtil and cunning and shrewd are all words that describe a schemer. What benefit is there to the snake to scheme? Some sages submit that the fall of the angelic host caused the Creator to banish the fallen ones to the place where there was no form and void. Lucifer “went in unto the snake” by giving the snake the desire to scheme and cause others to fail.
Once the snake operates in the idea that Lucifer gives him, he’s letting Lucifer do his bidding. Now the snake has an opportunity to allow Lucifer, through him, to beguile the woman. Once the woman then allows Lucifer “to come in unto her” and she accepts the ideas of the snake and then operates in them, she too becomes someone who is doing the bidding of Lucifer.
We see that Lucifer gives her an idea that is against God. She ponders the thought. Once she gives it a place in her will, she lets Lucifer come in unto her as she operates in the action of the sinful thought.
In Ezekiel we learn that Lucifer’s sin was to want to be like the most High God and be called God, even to stand in God’s place. So, many theologians believe that God put the tree of the knowledge of good and evil in the garden to give man the option to operate in the same sin– which is the jealousy of who God is. He was, is, and will be. He is uncreated. He is the only Creator.
The snake is drawing the woman’s attention to this tree of the knowledge of good and evil, which he tells her is the tree that gives man the ability to be like YHVH. We know that this way of being like God is a way which He, (God) did not sanction.
Adam and Eve knew God in the most profound way –as The Creator. We Jews know Him most as Deliverer and giver of the Torah and of course as Creator and giver of Shabbat and Feasts, too. He let them know Him in many intimate ways also, as they communed together, but the one way He did not want them to try to be like Him was to try to create. Creation was complete and it is His alone.
The snake tempts her to disobey with his question. “Aren’t you folks allowed to eat from all the trees in the garden?” (My translation.)
This is a taunt, a challenge even. This question suggests strongly that she isn’t as close to God as she thinks she is. God gave her a rule. He made something that she cannot partake of. It’s off limits.
She’s already plenty jealous of Adam’s role in the creation process. Adam had the honor of naming all of the created!
So, she is pondering the question as she regards the trees in the garden.
Genesis 3:2-5 (KJV) 2 And the woman said unto the serpent, We may eat of the fruit of the trees of the garden:
3 But of the fruit of the tree which is in the midst of the garden, God hath said, Ye shall not eat of it, neither shall ye touch it, lest ye die.
4 And the serpent said unto the woman, Ye shall not surely die:
5 For God doth know that in the day ye eat thereof, then your eyes shall be opened, and ye shall be as gods, knowing good and evil.
Eve describes how she understands the one rule regarding the trees in the garden. Let’s compare the command of God and her rendition. Genesis 2:16-17 (KJV) 16 And the LORD God commanded the man, saying, Of every tree of the garden thou mayest freely eat: 17 But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die.
God does not say in His command that they cannot touch the tree. I’d say that it’s probably not a good idea, though. I can imagine Adam saying, “Eve, you’re all I have and I want you to live my dear, so don’t even touch that tree.”
They could eat of all the trees in the garden except this tree so it’s possible they were eating from the tree of life; however this is one part of the story that theologians argue fiercely and there are many variations of this.
Verse 4 is where Lucifer has the snake outright lie to Eve. Prior to the sin, Adam and Eve were glorious, God-filled creatures! They were intimate with the Creator and existed in a perfect world. Their spirit and soul were illumined and in communion with the Ruach Kodesh. This did not make them perfect but they were operating in the beauty of holiness and the excellence and superiority which stems from being sinless.
Verse 5 shows that the temptation grows stronger: God knows that when you eat of this tree then your eyes will be opened and ye shall be as gods, knowing good and evil.
What good is—what God created—and what evil is—to malign it or corrupt it, may be a new concept for many, but I feel strongly that God makes the case in the course of the book of Genesis. I hope to show in clear proofs that God’s case is what I am extrapolating here.
I see the temptation directed at her jealousy, and also at her misdirected desire to be like God or involved with God in the creation developments as they unfolded. After all, Adam was profoundly involved, having had the honor of naming everything.

That said, I define this as, to bring revelation to something. If that something is creation, then we can deduce based on physics, that it gave the person the ability to understand DNA. Moses Maimonides makes the assertion that there were ten dimensions prior to the sin of mankind and all were knowable or visible to man.
After the fall, only four were knowable even though there were still ten dimensions. It is easy to make the jump to say that the microscopic realm of DNA and cells was visible but to understand how to manipulate them is another thing. If one agrees with Maimonides’ statements, accepts laws of relativity, symmetry and the laws of physics they are defined within, then we can ascertain that this is an acceptable explanation of events: it could very well be that no magnification was necessary to view genetics in the tree of the knowledge of good and evil.
then your eyes shall be opened, and ye shall be as gods, knowing good and evil.
‘Be as gods.’ What an enticing temptation! She wanted to elevate herself above her current state. (Sounds like what happened to Lucifer.) She wanted to have knowledge which would make her greater. But if you take the definition that man offers for good and evil, you can miss the true meaning here. We saw from God’s definition of good that it is what He created. That is the true definition. He will have it His way. He is the King of all Kings and not the Burger King. When God says to have it your way, as He did with Balaam, it was a way that brought the “prophet” death.
So, Eve is standing there pondering . . .
Genesis 3:6 (KJV) 6 And when the woman saw that the tree was good for food, and that it was pleasant to the eyes, and a tree to be desired to make one wise, she took of the fruit thereof, and did eat, and gave also unto her husband with her; and he did eat.
She bought the lie. She exchanged the truth of God’s law and accepted instead the snake’s lie. This exchange was not such a simple act as the few words that Moses’ account describes it. She looked into the Super Strings of Life. She saw the mathematical logistics of what creation was based on and wanted to insert herself into the creation process. She allowed her eyes to lust after– or to covet the creation. She wanted to be wise. She wanted to be a god. These attributes are not describing her going up to the tree and pulling a piece of its fruit off of the limb. No. This is far more than that.
We see from her desires that she was determined to make a name for herself here in this perfect world she lived in. She wanted to be wise. Wiser than she already was and, it could be too, that she wanted to be wiser than her husband. She wondered at the words of the snake. She could be like God. She could maybe even make, (create) a new food from this new knowledge. She allowed herself to doubt God. A God who created a perfect world and who gave her everything she had. The snake had convinced her that she needed more.
I want to interject something of the spirit realm into this part of the story. The angelic host that left their first estate are the demonic hordes of Lucifer, his minions. The sons of God, (the ones fallen from their first estate and the faithful angelic host,) saw that the daughters of men were naïve.
No, I don’t state this because I have a vivid imagination and nor have begun to tell a fairy tale. If this understanding of the angelic host is a fairy tale, then 2 Kings is a fairy tale as well.
Here’s the story: 2 Kings 6:13-18 (KJV) 13 And he said, Go and spy where he is, that I may send and fetch him. And it was told him, saying, Behold, he is in Dothan.
14 Therefore sent he thither horses, and chariots, and a great host: and they came by night, and compassed the city about.
15 And when the servant of the man of God was risen early, and gone forth, behold, an host compassed the city both with horses and chariots. And his servant said unto him, Alas, my master! how shall we do?
16 And he answered, Fear not: for they that be with us are more than they that be with them.
17 And Elisha prayed, and said, LORD, I pray thee, open his eyes, that he may see. And the LORD opened the eyes of the young man; and he saw: and, behold, the mountain was full of horses and chariots of fire round about Elisha.
18 And when they came down to him, Elisha prayed unto the LORD, and said, Smite this people, I pray thee, with blindness. And he smote them with blindness according to the word of Elisha.

Now, let’s go back to the temptation of Eve. The demons used a snake to tempt Eve to willfully disobey God and the sin was so egregious that it changed everything that God created. Everything suffered the fall. All was changed. It was not just a simple act of picking fruit and eating a bite of it. It was much more insidious and the consequences were truly astronomical. And we are seeing a return of this serious sin going on in the world right now. It will exponentially grow in usage and popularity. I’m speaking of genetics. We need to understand how terrible of a thing it is.
There are teachers today erroneously teaching that man has been using genetics for thousands of years to improve their crops, pets and other things. This process is not genetics but cross pollination and selective breeding. Vastly different from genetics and part of the root of all evil–to be as gods…. It is the same root that caused much of the angelic host to fall from their first estate.
The snake gave her something to covet-to be a god. He gave her something to think about. She receives the temptation and begins to think and ponder it, giving it a toehold in her mind. The next thing that happens is that she is acting on the sinful covetous thoughts. At this stage of the act of sin, she has allowed the evil to enter her and she operates in the evil. This is how a demonic force drives someone. I’m going to delve into this more deeply when we get to chapter 6 of Genesis, where God has Moses reiterate how it began.

So, she took of the fruit thereof. The Strong’s defines the word took as follows:

Strong’s Talking Greek & Hebrew Dictionary.

Took, in the Webster’s Dictionary, means to lay hold of something for one’s own use. This is now making the case very clearly. Once she uses it to mingle the genetics and make herself a new fruit, she ate it. Then offered it to her husband and he ate it too. Yes, I imagine something like, “Look what I made honey! Try it!” Ooops. Wrong answer.
Later in the Genesis scroll, we find that God destroys all the life on the planet but a designated few. The reason? The Bible declares, “because of the theft” and the “chaotic confusion.” Remember symmetry? All that God created was in glorious order.
I don’t feel that it is plausible to imagine that God was simply upset at mankind’s treatment to one another because there was a great deal of thievery going on among men. I assert that man will always mistreat man.
No. God is angry that there was so much mingling going on which destroys symmetry and His creation order. Many were creating through genetics, making giants, and gigantic creatures. Absurd? Can I make the case? Yes. I think you will agree if you stay with me on this. In the meantime, ponder this; we know there were dinosaurs and giants, yet God did not save them from the flood. I will show you shortly how the flood wiped out the giants, but then a disobedient grandson will bring them about once again.
We need to return to our Bible narrative. Genesis 3:7-8 (KJV) 7 And the eyes of them both were opened, and they knew that they were naked; and they sewed fig leaves together, and made themselves aprons.
8 And they heard the voice of the LORD God walking in the garden in the cool of the day: and Adam and his wife hid themselves from the presence of the LORD God amongst the trees of the garden.
Adam and Eve had the distinction of being the chosen ones that God had a special relationship with. They could have fellowship with Him on an intimate level. These verses show us that God would simply need to call to them and they heard Him clearly. I may be one of the few people to actually think that they heard Him differently this time because they heard Him outside of themselves. I believe that they had the ability to hear Him inwardly before they disobeyed. Also, the presence of the Living God is not to be taken lightly. If we willfully disobey we need to apologize to Him and ask for forgiveness and then not repeat that action or thought. If we retain the sin in our hearts then there is a blockage to our communion with Him. If we have a true relationship with Him we will feel the difference. It appears that they felt the difference and they tried to hide from Him.
Genesis 3:9-13 (KJV) 9 And the LORD God called unto Adam, and said unto him, Where art thou?
10 And he said, I heard thy voice in the garden, and I was afraid, because I was naked; and I hid myself.
11 And he said, Who told thee that thou wast naked? Hast thou eaten of the tree, whereof I commanded thee that thou shouldest not eat?
12 And the man said, The woman whom thou gavest to be with me, she gave me of the tree, and I did eat.
13 And the LORD God said unto the woman, What is this that thou hast done? And the woman said, The serpent beguiled me, and I did eat.

The Lord God calls out to Adam asking, where are you. I believe that this is because Adam and Eve were no longer walking with leading by the indwelling of the Ruach. I believe that the Ruach left them which is most likely why they were feeling naked. They stopped walking with the Spirit of the Living God. Can I prove my belief? I again go back to 2 Kings in chapter 5.
To set up the scene, the King of Israel gets a letter from the King of Syria who defeated Israel recently and took captives as slaves. A slave girl tells the wife of Naaman, who is the Captain of the Syrian Army and who has leprosy, that the prophet in Israel could recover him from leprosy. The King tells Naaman to “go, to go” which seems strange, but later Naaman’s men remind him of the King’s words so he listens to the prophet’s directions. I take that to mean, go, to go was the instruction to go and seriously do whatever it takes, even listening to the prophet of the enemy.
When the King of Israel gets the letter, he takes it as a threat of war and he doesn’t have a great relationship with the Living God so is not a spiritual man, and he knows he cannot recover a man from leprosy. So, he freaks out and rents his robe. He’s responsible for the lives of his countrymen and is at his wits end. Elisha, the great prophet who does have a relationship with God, says to relax and let him and God handle it.
Naaman with his great reputation and status may have thought that the prophet would receive him with pomp and royal fanfare. When Elisha didn’t even bother to meet him, but sends a disciple instead to give the instructions for the remedy, he is insulted. He almost leaves.
Gehazi the underling to Elisha is given an opportunity to show that he has learned some things about the Living God, how to please Him and how to follow the leading of the inner-spirit man like a prophet does.
Elisha makes it clear that God does not want the prophets to take any “payment” for the miracle. No fancy gold threaded robes, no money, no slaves, no horses…nothing. Gehazi is licking his chops for the chance to lay hold of some of these fine “gifts” from Naaman. So after Naaman and his entire entourage leave, he runs after them.
Now, we’re getting to the comparable lesson. 2 Kings 5:20-27 (KJV) 20 But Gehazi, the servant of Elisha the man of God, said, Behold, my master hath spared Naaman this Syrian, in not receiving at his hands that which he brought: but, as the LORD liveth, I will run after him, and take somewhat of him.
21 So Gehazi followed after Naaman. And when Naaman saw him running after him, he lighted down from the chariot to meet him, and said, Is all well?
22 And he said, All is well. My master hath sent me, saying, Behold, even now there be come to me from mount Ephraim two young men of the sons of the prophets: give them, I pray thee, a talent of silver, and two changes of garments.
23 And Naaman said, Be content, take two talents. And he urged him, and bound two talents of silver in two bags, with two changes of garments, and laid them upon two of his servants; and they bare them before him.
24 And when he came to the tower, he took them from their hand, and bestowed them in the house: and he let the men go, and they departed.
25 But he went in, and stood before his master. And Elisha said unto him, Whence comest thou, Gehazi? And he said, Thy servant went no whither.
26 And he said unto him, Went not mine heart with thee, when the man turned again from his chariot to meet thee? Is it a time to receive money, and to receive garments, and oliveyards, and vineyards, and sheep, and oxen, and menservants, and maidservants?
27 The leprosy therefore of Naaman shall cleave unto thee, and unto thy seed for ever. And he went out from his presence a leper as white as snow.
Interesting to note is that Elisha declines the payment blessings with the remark, 2 Kings 5:15-16 (KJV) 15 And he returned to the man of God, he and all his company, and came, and stood before him: and he said, Behold, now I know that there is no God in all the earth, but in Israel: now therefore, I pray thee, take a blessing of thy servant.
16 But he said, As the LORD liveth, before whom I stand, I will receive none. And he urged him to take it; but he refused.
Elisha refuses reminding anyone within earshot, that he stands before the Living God. And Gehazi runs after the Syrian with the same statement of , “As the Lord liveth.” He then lies to Naaman in the name of his master, Elisha, then returns to Elisha and lies to him.
Here’s the verse, 26 And he said unto him, Went not mine heart with thee, when the man turned again from his chariot to meet thee? Is it a time to receive money, and to receive garments, and oliveyards, and vineyards, and sheep, and oxen, and menservants, and maidservants?

How did Elisha KNOW? It says that his heart went with Gehazi. The Living God was a companion in Elisha’s heart. The Ruach informed the prophet of the deception. Naaman had a true conversion experience. He was so convinced that the God of Israel was the One true God that he asked the prophet if God would forgive him for continuing to serve his King and in that capacity would need to bow to the King’s god. This is a huge accomplishment. This now puts a believer in what was once an enemy of Israel. God did not want anyone to accept payment for this miracle.
If a man, in this case Elisha, walking with God can see things like this, we must accept that God surely can regarding Adam and Eve.

So the LORD God asks Adam where he is, not because He doesn’t know but because there has been a marked change. The question comes; Genesis 3:11 (KJV) 11 And he said, Who told thee that thou wast naked? Hast thou eaten of the tree, whereof I commanded thee that thou shouldest not eat?
God recognizes the change and knows what caused it. They both admit their error with blame attached. Genesis 3:12-13 (KJV) 12 And the man said, The woman whom thou gavest to be with me, she gave me of the tree, and I did eat.
13 And the LORD God said unto the woman, What is this that thou hast done? And the woman said, The serpent beguiled me, and I did eat.
Adam blames his wife and she blames the snake. Adam has a strong argument. After all, God said that he would forsake his mother and father for the wife. Eve claims that she succumbed to temptation that the snake led her into. The snake doesn’t have a leg to stand on. God then makes that true for one part of the snake’s consequence.
And so, the LORD’s judgment. The first to be judged is the guiltiest. The snake being the instrument of the evil one gets his sentence. Genesis 3:14-15 (KJV) 14 And the LORD God said unto the serpent, Because thou hast done this, thou art cursed above all cattle, and above every beast of the field; upon thy belly shalt thou go, and dust shalt thou eat all the days of thy life:
15 And I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed; it shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel.
The consequence of this curse includes the woman. The evil one will be directly against her, (enmity between the snake and the woman,) from now on. The snake gets cursed but we do not see the curse of the sons of God (fallen angelic beings) here because they have already suffered the curse. They have been banished from the Kingdom and are renegade foes of the Living God.
Lucifer’s sin was to want to be like the most High God and be called God, even to stand in God’s place. So, many theologians believe that God put the tree of the knowledge of good and evil in the garden to give man the option to operate in the same sin which is the jealousy of who God is. Here’s the verse in Isaiah 14:12-15 (KJV) 12 How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! how art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations!
13 For thou hast said in thine heart, I will ascend into heaven, 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:
14 I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the most High.
15 Yet thou shalt be brought down to hell, to the sides of the pit.
Other theologians believe that she mingled the seed so we do not know that she just walked up to the tree and picked the fruit. It’s not outside the realm of plausibility that she mingled the seed of the tree, since the reason she was enticed to do so was in order to be as “god” because picking a fruit does not show any “godlike” qualities. She may have crossed the genetics and it took quite a bit of time to produce the fruit…we do not know with any certainty either way, but there are several things we do know. This single act caused an adverse effect to everything in the universe. Picking and eating a piece of fruit? Not the most plausible answer. More likely genetics, causing chaos to the symmetry of God’s creation the only things He called good.
Genesis 3:16 (KJV) 16 Unto the woman he said, I will greatly multiply thy sorrow and thy conception; in sorrow thou shalt bring forth children; and thy desire shall be to thy husband, and he shall rule over thee.
Greatly multiplied sorrow is attributed easily to the fact that the enemy is directly against woman. He’ll attack woman in her emotions with ease because God multiplied her sorrows.
The multiplication of sorrow is to make her emotional, more emotional than God’s original design; or a propensity toward unhealthy emotions if you will.
Then, multiply thy conception; the way in which a woman conceives is vaginally. Now if the devil himself is against a woman through his curse and the woman’s conception is increased, what is God allowing the enemy to do to the woman?
To answer this I would like to introduce the definition of sodomy as found in the dictionary.
Sodomy noun Etymology: Middle English, from Anglo-French sodomie, from Late Latin Sodoma Sodom; from the homosexual proclivities of the men of the city in Genesis 19:1-11 Date: 13th century anal or oral copulation with a member of the same or opposite sex; also copulation with an animal • sodomitic or sodomitical adjective . The anal or oral copulation with the same or opposite sex. (Also, any sexual activity with an animal.)
The simple summary is that all sex outside the way of conception, (vaginal) is considered sodomy to YHVH our Elohim…
This is multiplication of conception. The childbirth thing is separate. Be not deceived. Sodom and Gomorra was not only about homosexuality, it was not the only evil that God hated and destroyed the cities for. It is about people operating under the curse blatantly, without thought or fear of God.

and thy desire shall be to thy husband, and he shall rule over thee . . . We, as Jews, have the ability to appropriate the remedies for sins as laid out in the Tanakh. But we see other cultures and people’s practices where women must follow ten paces behind their husbands. Or men who have their women sell themselves on the streets or dance with poles for money. This is clearly operating under the curse.
In this way we see how the man is causatively affected by the curse on woman. In addition to this, the childbearing sorrows also affect man because he is the other side of the conception process. Man’s lusts for woman’s multiplied conception was put into him as part of the curse on woman. All parts of the curse on woman have an adverse effect on man. What’s more, the love between man and woman secures the power of the curse against both, whether the curse is on man or woman.
I could write a book on the curse of the Fall of mankind and many theologians have done so. I feel that I will cover enough points to ponder and also bring about some clarity.
Genesis 3:17-19 (KJV) 17 And unto Adam he said, because thou hast hearkened unto the voice of thy wife, and hast eaten of the tree, of which I commanded thee, saying, Thou shalt not eat of it: cursed is the ground for thy sake; in sorrow shalt thou eat of it all the days of thy life;
18 Thorns also and thistles shall it bring forth to thee; and thou shalt eat the herb of the field;
19 In the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat bread, till thou return unto the ground; for out of it wast thou taken: for dust thou art, and unto dust shalt thou return.
The ground, that once provided Adam a job which was to dress and keep the garden, is now cursed. Man will not be keeping it as much as trying to maintain productivity of it, which will be difficult. It may appear at a light glance that man had a smaller consequence for his role in the sin, but when one considers that both curses upon the other two conspirators also have a direct effect on man, it becomes clear that is not the case.
The joy the man had prior to the sin now reduced and sorrow is his lot in life. His ease of life now reduced to hard labor all his days until he returns to dust from which he started out as.
Genesis 3:20-24 (KJV) 20 And Adam called his wife’s name Eve; because she was the mother of all living.
21 Unto Adam also and to his wife did the LORD God make coats of skins, and clothed them.
22 And the LORD God said, Behold, the man is become as one of us, to know good and evil: and now, lest he put forth his hand, and take also of the tree of life, and eat, and live for ever:
23 Therefore the LORD God sent him forth from the garden of Eden, to till the ground from whence he was taken.
24 So he drove out the man; and he placed at the east of the garden of Eden Cherubims, and a flaming sword which turned every way, to keep the way of the tree of life.

Eve is named the mother of all living and I believe it is because she and Adam were the only humans that the Creator made as living souls with His breath. I have researched this and found that scholars have so many varied speculations it is impossible to make clear conclusions. I believe that since we know that Genesis 2:17 says, 17 But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die, God Himself says that they would die if they eat of the tree. They aren’t dead in the normal sense of the word so we have to find a different solution.
So, we see that not only are they not dead, but Adam is giving his bride a name. He earlier classified her, now he’s naming her and her name is because she is the mother of all living. Some might say that the Bible is contradictory because of this. God says one thing and then Adam makes a case for the exact opposite with her name and his reason for the name; the mother of all living.
My belief that it is due to the couple being the only ones that God breathed into seems the most credible. (I know, of course I would say that!)
Verse 21 is where it could get confusing too. Initially, God could commune with man at any time. They had the indwelling of the Ruach. BUT, once willful sin occurred, a new protocol for communing with God had to be enacted. We see it soon in Genesis when the sacrifices of Cain and Abel were offered. The exact words of Abel’s acceptable offering is the same as the words the Levites use for an acceptable sin offering in Leviticus.
God replaced their fig leaves which did cover them. Why? What did He do? I personally believe that God slayed two acceptable offerings showing the couple what the new protocol was for communing with Him. It only makes sense since it is the only time that God slays two animals for a covering. We see later in the Book of Genesis that He slays animals for the covenant with Abraham so we know that He does do this.
What I mean is that He does slay animals to instruct and give as a demonstration of His willingness to have intimate relationship with certain people that He chooses.
22 And the LORD God said, Behold, the man is become as one of us, to know good and evil: and now, lest he put forth his hand, and take also of the tree of life, and eat, and live for ever:
23 Therefore the LORD God sent him forth from the garden of Eden, to till the ground from whence he was taken.

These verses again show us that the couple is alive and, because they had the knowledge of genetics, (knowledge of the tree) they had to be cast out of the garden before they looked into the Tree of Life.
What is the Tree of Life? I believe it is the spiritual knowledge of things. I also believe it means that man could sin and there would not be the consequence of death. We know that there is a consequence for sinning. People don’t go around dropping dead every time they commit a sin, but I believe that a being of death does have the right to attack the physical body of the sinner. It is a logical explanation that could sound far-fetched if you don’t believe in such beings of evil, called demons.
In the book, “Genetically Engineered Food” – Martin Teitel, Ph.D. And Kimberly A. Wilson, Dr. Teitel explains the problem he faced with God when he was working as a geneticist. He was young and brilliant, working in a lab and received an assignment to cross a tomato with an arctic fish. They wanted him to take the gene that protected the fish from cold and implant it into the tomato to make it more resistant to frost. He claims that as he began to work on the assignment God spoke to him incredulous, saying, “You know me and you can do this?”
He fell to his knees and did not work on the equation. He changed jobs. It altered his life. He said that genetics was crossing swords with the cherubs at the entry to the garden. Reading his book changed my life. [I will get the exact page and quote.]

Chapter Two
I’m going to change up the Biblical narrative at this point and instead of going straight through the verses one at a time, I’m going to continue to make the case I began with here. Jumping to Genesis 5:28-29 (KJV) 28 And Lamech lived an hundred eighty and two years, and begat a son:
29 And he called his name Noah, saying, This same shall comfort us concerning our work and toil of our hands, because of the ground which the LORD hath cursed.
Biblical names are always quite telling and this is the case here with Noah. I believe that Elohim named him Noah because God was watching His creation being defiled through genetics. When Eve maligned the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil the sin caused all of creation to suffer the fall. The ground is now cursed by Him because it is growing something other than what He initially created. God’s work and the toil of their hands is a specific and telling verse regarding Elohim’s work of His hands which is His creation. It took Him six days to complete and then He rested on the seventh.
People were making genetically modified food, animals and people. Every ancient culture shows pictures with stories of half-man/half-goat, (satyr), half-man/half-bull (minotaur) half-man/half-horse (centaur). Plus, we know of giants which is clearly defined in scripture with descriptions of one king’s bed being eleven feet long. David fought the giant Goliath and is another example. Dinosaurs were not on the Ark and neither were unicorns. It is clear to me that these were genetically manipulated animals.
Elohim, who is pure love, destroyed all the world and the life forms in it except what He put onto the Ark. I submit to you that He only destroyed what He did not create. The people who ate genetically modified foods became corrupted flesh. How can I say this with any certainty?
Well, first genetically modified foods and the GMO plants they come from are not part of Elohim’s food chain. There is a definitive order to things as I laid out with precision from the Bible verses of creation.
The human body does not recognize these organisms as food and when they come into the body with real food the body begins to separate them out. Sometimes if there is not a high concentration of them, they will be labeled as waste by the natural functions of the digestive system. If, however they come into the body with high levels of GMOs, the built-in immune system may send out probiotics to destroy them as invasive entities that could cause the body harm weakening the immune system.
The body will begin to morph if GMOs become a regular part of a person’s diet. The human body is adaptable and marvelous with the design and job of the natural systems; to keep the body alive. What will begin to happen during this process is that the waste will settle in places of the body like joints, tissue, blood, organs and even the neurons.
GMO Excitotoxins like MSG, aspartame, and soy lecithin are neurological inhibitors. They grab onto neurons which adds weight, volume and mass to the neuron. The neurons travel through the body in their pathways and cross the Blood Brain Barrier where they also have specific pathways. But now that the neuron is changed it will drag and not perform as designed. It will miss the marks of its natural pathway. One can only imagine the results suffered by the individual.
I submit to you that it is a strong probability for the exponential growth in mental incapacitating illnesses like Alzheimer’s, brain tumors, spinal tumors, and abnormalities. In brain surgeon, Dr. Russell Blaylock’s book, “Excitotoxins; The Taste That Kills,” we learn of the medical, scientific evidence regarding the damage caused by these additives in the foods we eat.
I met a woman in 2001 who told me what happened to her. She claims it is true and I believed her right away.
She lived in Maryland and her mother lived across the country. Her mother called her to ask if she could go to her and assist with her convalescence after a surgery. She of course said yes and began to search the internet for airline flights. She heard the LORD say, “I want you to go by train.”
So, she booked a train ticket and left days later. During the trip as they went through the Midwest, she noticed that in all directions the view from the windows was corn rows. Rows upon rows of almost fully ripened corn. The Bible verses of how all of creation praises God came into her mind and she smiled and said in her heart to Him, “I praise You with Your beautiful and wonderful creation, Father.”
No sooner did she finish the sentence than she heard thousands upon thousands of voices weeping and wailing! It was loud! She put her palms up to her ears to block out the sound and looked around. No one else seemed to hear this cacophony of woe. She asked God, “Who is crying, LORD? I am hearing in the spirit realm?”
“The corn is crying.”
“Why is the corn crying?”
“It is genetically modified, so it is no longer part of my creation. I do not receive the praises of such things and so they weep and wail. Do not partake of such things.”
I again make a point submission for you, dear reader: If human beings, animals, insects and other living organisms ingest GMOs on a continuing basis, they will no longer be able to praise the LORD. This is the reason He destroyed life-forms the first time…they were no longer of His creation.
Elohim is many things and one of them is pure love. As such, many find it difficult to believe that He instructed the Israelites to destroy and completely wipe out entire people groups. Atheists use this as an excuse to dismiss God. The concept of genetics mutating people and the rest of His creation is a very plausible conclusion for His motive.
Many, if not most of the tribes or people groups and cultures on the Earth have in their history legends of anomalies such as the minotaur, half man-half bull and the centaur, half man-half horse, and echidna, half woman-half snake.
Then there’s the harpy, a bird with the head of a woman. And the mermaid, half woman-half fish and the gorgons who were human but their hair was comprised of deadly serpents. All cultures have unicorns but they were not on the Ark either…
And what of the dinosaurs? We know with certainty that they existed but they were not given a place on the Ark.
I submit that these all were genetically generated creatures. Please notice that I did not refer to them as creations. They are stolen from YHVH’s initial creation. They are worse than mutations or hybrids. They are an abomination. He only communes with His creation.
If you are still eating GMOs there is still time right now (2021) to change your eating habits to exclude them and you won’t mutate, however that really depends on how poor your diet is. If you eat all processed foods, no fresh vegetables and fruits and when you do eat them they are GMO, then you may already be mutating…
Once you mutate and are more genetically modified than originally created, then you become a beast—not really human—not even a hybrid but an abomination. You will no longer be able to commune with God and will not be heard by Him. He will turn away from you.
GENETICALLY MODIFIED ORGANISMS ARE THE MARK OF THE BEAST.

I want to take a quick side trail right now and discuss the 10 Commandments with regard to genetics because it makes the case more succinctly than my words.
1 And God spake all these words, saying,
2 I am the LORD thy God, which have brought thee out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage.
3 Thou shalt have no other gods before me. {When man genetically makes something else from God’s creation he is setting himself up as a god. Buying, preparing and eating these is like bowing down to another god.}
4 Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth: {So the graven image, or likeness of anything…is genetics!}
5 Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them: for I the LORD thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me; {Bowing down to or serving—is cooperating with the enemy’s design and defiling our bodies and also making our bellies our god.}

I see this so clearly. I hope I am making it clear to you, gentle reader.
When a God who is pure LOVE tells one people group to kill another one and not spare the children or animals it is because of the genetically modified organisms in that tribe.
When the spies saw the giants and they had over-sized fruits and vegetables they were using genetics.
Using genetics is the original defiant sin of Eve/mankind. All of creation suffered at the fall.
Selah.
