aka: The Great Breakdown through Observation
My focus is not just on the current, traditional, or accepted interpretations and the translations they have produced, but also on delving into the ancient Hebrew language.
Expanding the analysis through the lens of what I consider the origin of the Hebrew letters themselves: the Glyphs, and what I refer to as the influence of the layers of time and culture: Sacred Etymology.
The obvious place to begin is: “In the beginning…”
Genesis 1:1
English translation (King James Version)
In the beginning God created the Heaven and the Earth.
בראשית ברא אלהים את השמים ואת הארץ
(BRAShYT) (BRA) (ALHYM) (AT) (HShMYM) (VAT) (HARTs)
In + Beginning | Created | [God] | + (the) Heaven | and + (the) Earth
In the beginning
In English, both the one-word title “Genesis” and the first three words, “In the beginning.” It is understood to convey the concept of a starting point — “As a moment of Origin.”
Note: In general, it’s answering the “When” [as something that had a beginning action] and as “the How God began,” as the how “God created” and the steps along the way (as to an ordered process) [formatted in the “6” days].
Bereshit | בראשית
The original word written in Hebrew is one word: Bereshit, בראשית (BRAShYT) <H7225>. The traditional view of understanding this word is with a grammar construct focused on a [root word] and with prefix and suffix letters. In this case, it’s the ראש (RASh) <H7218>, defined and translated as “Head, chief, top, beginning, leader.” The relationship to these words can be understood as “At the head of…”, as a place where something begins, or as the top (as the most elevated) position, like the “Chief.”
Note: There is a similarity to the Hebrew letter ר (R) is pronounced as Rosh/Resh ריש (RYSh) and is the Glyph of the “Head” of man.
The root word, ראש (RASh) <H7218>, describes objects (as a concept of “that which [something] comes from”) in other textual writings and is translated as:
– “the head of rivers” [used in Genesis 2:10],
– “your head/thy head” [used in Genesis 3:15],
– “the top of mountains” [used in Genesis 8:5],
– “the top of towers” [used in Genesis 11:4].
Note: Its seems from the modern perspective of this word as referencing a moment of time — the focus on the relationship is to the water as, the place the “river [begins] (also, called the “headwaters”) and flows from the mountain top,” then making the top (or head) as, the place of origin [this is a relationship to the when, or where as well as in the physical world or as in “Creation”].
The ב (B) used as a prefix and translated as: “In”, and the ית (YT), the feminine plural suffix — this is conceptually like translating to an “-ing” ending [as related to the English root word “begin” to “beginning.”]
The grammar function of suffixes: Feminine plural word endings.
The use of feminine plural, ית (YT) versus the masculine plural, ימ (YM) has an interesting change function to the root word, ראש (RASh) <H7218>.
The feminine plural version: ראשית (RASh+YT) <H7225> is (a feminine noun) translated as, “choicest, finest, first, first fruits, foremost.”
* Note: The addition of the feminine suffix transitions the definitions to denote “fruit-bearing,” symbolically similar to the concept of childbearing.
** Note: The connection to Eve (life-bearing) and the Fruit of the Trees in the Garden within Eden is described in Genesis 3.
The grammar function of suffixes: Masculine plural word endings.
Whereas the masculine plural version of the root is ראשימ (RASh+YM) <H7218> is (a masculine noun) [used in Genesis 2:10] as “headwaters, rivers” described in the text as “becoming four rivers which parted from a single river.”
Note: The use of the masculine suffix focuses on “water.”
The difference between masculine and feminine seems to denote the distinction between “life-giving” vs. “life-bearing,” — as concepts of “bringing forth” vs. “giving birth.”
Another interesting detail about the 3-letter root word, ראש (RASh) <H7218> is the breakdown of the word into a prefix of the ר (R), and the two-letter root word, אש (ASh) <H784>, defined as “a fire,” but also translated as: “blazing, burning, fiery, flaming, flashing.”
The use of letter ר (R) [traditionally described as meaning “first/top/beginning,”] as a prefix to the אש (ASh) as generating a concept of “First Fire,” or “the Spark.” Furthermore, expanding the Glyph imagery of the ר (R) as representing the Mind of Man — The concept of man’s thoughts or ideas are like a spark compared to God’s thoughts or ideas | the א (A) as the Mind of God, which brings forth “Aspects of Creation” [ש (Sh)] -or- אש (ASh) as, fire.
This symbolically relates thoughts to fire, which leads to a relationship with Fire to Wisdom.
Additionally, it could represent a watershed moment of man making fire, and thus a correlation to the concept of the Fire-maker, as the “Wise-man” or Mankind’s Wisdom.
When applying the Glyph meanings associated with the letters אש (ASh), the (A) as the Strength/Power [Mind of God] + (Sh) as an Aspect of the Creation (the relationship between Creation and Destruction) conveys the idea of the “Power of the Sun (or Fire in the Sky<Heavens>).”
From the traditional perspective of the (BRAShYT) — it conceptually represents, the “Human level” | the (BR) as [The Plan of the Mind of Man] to gives birth to Wisdom = (ASh) “Fire” as, Influenced [Inspired] by (A) God’s Mind -or- the Mind of Man level is as a Spark [of Fire] = or a smaller piece of Wisdom compared of the full flame of God’s Wisdom + (YT) as the how it weaves or is interwoven together.
The generalized Concept of How the human mind comprehends God’s thoughts on how the Creation process is structured.
Another way to view the בראשית (BRAShYT) <H7225> is as a union of two (2) three-letter root words.
— The first is the ברא (BRA) <H1254>, defined as “to create; to shape,” and is used as the next word after the “Bereshit,” in Genesis 1:1, and translated as: “created.”
— The second root word is the שית (ShYT) <H7896>, defined as “to place; put; set.”
SHAPED + PLACED
Note: The combination of the two root words conveys the idea that “Creation -or- the beginning of it” is/was both shaped (created) and set in place.”
The Hebrew word order of Genesis 1:1 In the beginning [God] created… is the (BRAShYT) (BRA), which is understood as the shaped + placed, then shaped again. This perspective is a pattern of a first shaped [as a state of existence] + placed [as an interaction of movement to somewhere different] + another shaping [state of existence].
Symbolically, this is a visual representation of the process of making pottery:
— Step 1: wedging/kneading the clay [to prep it]
A pre-shaping [pushing out/removing the air bubbles and improving the workability of the clay].
— Step 2: place/set a ball of prepped clay on a potter’s wheel
— Step 3: start to mold/shape into [something]
The shaping of it [into something], as it spins on the wheel
Note: This clay analogy is also the Sumerian myth [process] of the creation or formation of man. As well as a basic and modern understanding of the Earth as it continues to spin, evolve, and change over time.
The Symbolic Concept of Creation,
as Processing of making “Clay into Pottery”
This union of two words represents the process of creating as the physical aspects of Creation itself — as the continuing process which is like the working of pliable clay into the many and diverse things of creation [not as a singular moment] — which can describe the pliability of the Human mind, as well.
Another concept of these is the “Was, Is, and Will Be”
[as referring to a placement in time]
BR+A → Sh+YT
A further breakdown of the view can be the בר (BR) <H1247-53>, defined as “son,” but also as “grain” + א (A) Mind of God + the ש (Sh) Aspect of Creation + ית (YT), as the feminine suffix.
Note: The grammar concept is the making/changing of the word from “son” to the feminine by adding the ית (YT) to create the word “daughter.”
בנ (BN) = “Son” to the בנית (BNYT) = “Daughter”
Symbolic representation: The personified or physical representation of a concept of the body/flesh as the potential/plan of the seed -or- the potential/plan of the family = בנ (BN) [in an adolescent state].
[Repeating “variant” tropes]
Union of Son(s) + Daughter(s) | [Male + Female]
* The idea or act of a father giving his daughter to another family’s son for marriage. The union of not just between the children[offspring], but of the families as well.
Concept of making separate families become united is to have a union [marriage] between two family members from each family.
(Symbolically and sometimes actually, as an offering up one from each side).
* In the case of God’s Creation of “Humanity” — the created offspring being represented by the (ADM) and the bonded/offered partner will be from within or part of itself, as translated: the woman.
Concept of making humanity whole is to reunite them or “the union of the two.”
Symbolically and literally, as an offering up one rib from Adam’s side.
Note: the Hebrew word translated as: Rib, also translated as: “Side”
-versus-
בר (BR) = “Son,” but בנית (BRYT) = as a concept of a “Daughter”
Symbolic representation: The personified or physical representation of a concept of rational mind to emotional mind as the potential/plan of the Mind of Man -or- the potential/plan of the family of mind [the idea of a collective consciousness] = בר (BR) [in an adolescent state].
The actual translation of the ברית (BRYT) <H1285-1286> is “Covenant” – not as: “Daughter.”
Symbolic representation: The concept of the marriage of a daughter to another family’s son (as making a union between both families and the children).
Is the concept of making a Covenant with God, as a state within oneself [and of your personal binding to “God.”]
Also, the idea of God (as the Father) giving his offspring to another to bind the families in a union (of marriage).
Note: A concept that relates to the “Bride of God or Christ” [that is used in later books] — symbolically as the making of a “Covenant.”
* The “Covenants” from God to Man *
The first use of the word: ברית (BRYT) <H1285> “Covenant” is in Genesis 6:18 with Noah – when instructed to build the Ark to save a selected grouping of life from the flood.
The next was in Genesis 9:9 And I, behold, I establish my covenant with you, and with your seed after you… [aka: The Covenant of the Rainbow] after exiting the Ark.
Additional “Covenants” | Abram becomes Abraham, with Issac (not with the firstborn, half-brother: Ishmael), with Jacob (not with firstborn, twin-brother: Esau), with Moses (again not the firstborn, which was his older brother: Aaron [and separated at birth]).
Note: If specific Biblical figures [aka: Patriarchs] whom God made/gave a Covenant (BRYT) = representing the [betrothed] “Daughter.” They symbolically represent a concept of “Sons of God” [aka: “Sons-in-Law”]
If comparing the (BRAShYT) as representing the (ASh) “Fire” (or “Wisdom”) born within the (BRYT) “Covenant,” then the concept of the Patriarchs represents the Wisdom brought forth by their Covenant with God.
B + RA → ShY + T
Yet, another way to break down the בראשית (BRAShYT) is as: (B) Plan/Blueprint + (RA) Mind of Man + <bring forth> → Mind of God.
Note: Although (RA) isn’t actually used as a Hebrew word, it can be found within other words:
* ראה (RAH) <H7200> as: to see, look at, inspect, perceive, consider
* ראה (RAH) <H7201> as: “bird of prey” | “glede/red kite”.
* ראה (RAH) <H7203> as: seer, a vision
* ראי (RAY) <H7209> as: a mirror
* ראי (RAY) <H7210> defined as: seeing, vision, sight
Concepts like: Seers/Prophets or Prophetess/Oracle
<as the earlier state or connection to God>
Also, the Concept of Birds of Prey
The idea of selecting its prey is like a personal bias as:
[picking what we like or want to take-in]
Even the Concept of Reflection
The generalized Concept of comparing the Mind of
Man’s attempt to bring forth the Mind of God.
Note: The Egyptian god: Ra is the sun god of ancient Egypt, and the image drawn of his representation is that of a falcon-headed man with a circle/sphere on top of his head [said to be the “Sun”], but also with a snake [a Cobra lying on top of it.
+ (ShY) Aspects of Creation + Efforts = as: Patterns of/in Creation + (T) Weaving together = How they are connected
Symbolically, as (RA) + (ShY) as “Seeing the Patterns” [as observational expressions in the physical world] and how they weave together – as: the ideas of Fractal repeating, the Fibonacci sequence (also, connected to the “Golden Ratio” and represented as the Greek Letter “Phi” Φ); as well as, the idea of Sacred Geometry, etc…
Concept of How Human’s see the patterns in things
Including, “Seeing what they(we) what to See”
[From one’s own experiences and bias] – [As the direction that influences the way a person interacts in life.]
The Overview
The relationship to Biblical Hebrew words and their development is evolved from making connection and observations, thus creating a link between Creation/Life and Language itself [aka: the Grammar reflects it, which in return is creation reflects life, which reflecting the creator [one, or the first cause] = aka: the concept of God as the Most High – as the furthermost back in the reflected process also, represented/“reflected” by the Letter/Glyph of the “Head of the Ox”/ א/(A).
Glyph meaning formula:
Blueprint(Plan) + <brings forth> → Human Mind + [brings forth]
→ Mind of God + <brings forth> → Aspects of Creation +
[brings forth] → Effort + <brings forth> → Weaving together
Concept of the Plan of Human mind
is to bring forth our connection to Mind of God
and Creation and how Everything is Weaved together.
Note: But there is a notion that because it’s coming from
the Mind of Man [it will/has/will have flaws or be flawed].
There is a lot packed into this word: Bereshit, בראשית (BRAShYT), which is what brings me back the method of the four constructs as a simplified or a streamlined version of word analysis.
The general idea is to have a useful tool to get a good grasp of the concept of meaning of a Biblical Hebrew word. As well as attempting to list the various usage and translations of words and in which books they’re located.
Note: I will be more encompassing of words in the beginning (pun intended), but I will streamline the listings of word usages down for the sake of keeping the pages manageable.
1 – Linear Construct (B+R+A+Sh+Y+T)
* בר (BR) <H1247> translated as: the son [of]
– used in Ezra 5:1-2, 6:4 and used in Psalms 2:12 and Proverbs 31:2
* בר (BR) <H1249> as: beloved, pure, empty | translated as, innocent | and I am clean
– used in Job 11:4
* בר (BR) <H1250> as: grain, the open country | translated as: [store] up the grain
– used in Genesis 41:35, 49 | [buy] grain – used in Gen. 42:3 | with grain – used in Gen. 42:25, 45:23
Note: Concepts of the Son or Grain [as the yield of the Herb Seed] = Concept of the “Potential of a future Nourishment” -or- the idea of “Feeding the Future,” but also from the idea of the natural/open/vastness of land [to “Live off the Land”] -> is the (BR) which leads to bring forth the [Mind of] God (BRA)
* ברא (BRA) <H1254> translated as: created — used in Genesis 1:1 and repeatedly in Genesis
* רא (RA) _ Note: Is not a biblical Hebrew word!?
Other variants or words built from (RA):
** ראה (RAH) <H7200> as: to see, look at, inspect, perceive, consider
— used in Genesis “[God] saw…” — but written as (VYRA) / translated as the (V) as “And [God] saw…
** ראה (RAH) <H7201> as: “bird of prey” | – used in Deuteronomy only once as: “And the glede/red kite… [a bird of prey] …” — but written as (VHRAH).
** ראה (RAH) <H7203> as: seer, a vision | – used in 1 Samuel as: “a seer” (HRAH) — as an older term used to describe the later term: Prophet | — used in Isaiah as, “having visions” (BRAH)
** ראה (RAH) <H7204> as: a Name — used in 1 Chronicles (HRAH)
** ראי (RAY) <H7209> as: a mirror
** ראי (RAY) <H7210> defined as: seeing, vision, sight | – used in Genesis 16:13 “[God] who sees [me]…” — used in 1 Samuel “appearance/[good-looking]” — used in Job “of him who sees [me]”
* ראש (RASh) <H7218>defined and translated as: Head, chief, top, beginning, leader.
* ראש (RASh) <H7219> translated as: bitterness, gall [bold and impudent behavior] | meaning: a poisonous [plant], (bitter, poisonous herb), “Venom” [of Snakes] // also: “the poppy plant” [of which — The ripe seed is the only non-harmful part of the plant]
** אש (ASh) <H784> defined as: “a fire”
Other variants or words built from (ChV):
** שי (ShY) <H7862> translated as: gift, present, gift offered, as a homage present
— used in Psalm 68:29, 76:11 and Isaiah 18:7
** שית (ShYT) <H7896> as: to place | translated as, to put, set, has appointed
— used in Genesis 3:15, 4:25, 30:40, and repeatedly in Genesis
** שית (ShYT) <H7897> translated as: a dress | garment, attire
— used in Psalm 73:6, Proverbs 7:10
** שית (ShYT) <H7898> as: briers/brairs, wild growth of weeds, trash | translated as: thorns
— used in Isaiah 5:6, and repeatedly in Isaiah.
Note: Interesting that in Isaiah — the use of what is translated as “briers/briars” from (ShMYR) and the “thorns” from (ShYT).
[* which also makes a connection to Shem (ShM) and Seth (ShT)]
Concept of what is <brought forth> as,
“briers/weeds [thorns]” or as “clothing”
* [The Concept of Thorns] is often used metaphorically to describe desolation, judgment, or the consequences of sin. It conveys the idea of something that is troublesome, obstructive, or indicative of a curse.
Note: the relationship to “Thorns” and the Consequences of Sin: the covering with fig leaves (as “Clothing”) of Adam and Eve’s nakedness after eating the fruit in Genesis 3.
Also,
Concept of “Living off the Land,” which will provide for the people
[but it will be as “thorns” as the idea of “blood, sweat, and tears”
| hard work leads to survival | the idea of the suffering servant.]
2 – Dimensional Construct (BR + YT →ASh)
The “what” is [Born within] is אש (ASh) <H784>, defined as “a fire,” but also translated as: “blazing, burning, fiery, flaming, flashing.”
Glyph meaning formula:
Mind of God + [Brings forth] → Aspects of Creation
Concept of Wisdom, as finding the balance
in the duality nature: Destruction/Creation
The idea of “Fire” as the method of what is used to destroy in order to create and bringing a balance to nature [as: to clear old growth and bring in new seedling growth].
The female aspect [aka: the feminine plural suffix] is the ית (YT).
Glyph Meaning: Effort of the Weaving together
Concept of putting together, as to do work for a purpose
Note: When the (BR) and the (YT) are made as a union, it becomes (BRYT) <H1285> translated as: “covenant” → gives birth to → (ASh) <H784>, defined as: “a fire,” but also translated as: “blazing, burning, fiery, flaming, flashing.”
Concept of the Wisdom born within the Covenant.
* (BRYT) <H1287> translated as: “soap” – used in Jeremiah 2:22 and Malachi 3:2 |
Note: Ancient Soap was made using ashes [the by-product of fire].
Concept of representing a purity of cleanliness.
Concept of the Human mind exists to fasten together
the purpose that will bring forward “Wisdom”
The idea that the Human mind has the function to bring about purpose, as (BRYT) versus the (BNYT), as swapping the (R) “the Human Mind with (N) “the Seed” <H784>, as the Potential to bring it.
Another Dimensional Construct (BT →RASh)
* בת (BT) <H1323> as: “Daughter” + giving birth to the * ראש (RASh) <H7218> defined and translated as: “Head, chief, top, beginning, leader.”
Concept of “a Daughter giving birth to a “Leader/Chief”
Similar to the idea of the sons of God took wives from the daughters of men and giving birth to Nephilim, נפילים (NPYLYM) <H5303> (translated as: “Giants”) – used in Genesis 6 & 13.
3 – Reflective Construct (T+Y+Sh+A+R+B)
Glyph meaning formula:
Weaving together + <brings forth> → Effort + <brings forth> → Aspects of Creation + <brings forth> → Mind of God + <brings forth> → Mind of Man + <brings forth> → Blueprint/Plan
Note: The idea of Weaving together of a basket or a net [the Matrix]
— in other words, the patterned effect is its outcome and purpose, or the Concept of Complexity of/from/come out as → the Effort(s)
* This could also be understood as the intention of Form or the mold of a Shape (which reflects of the actual outcome)
— the idea of an action that is complex, but with an impressive outcome.
Note: From the Glyph meaning perspective, it’s the concept of “how the weaving together is done.”: (TY+) Weaving together of the Effort as the action of [a thing/event] as the key factor vs. the outcome from the action (+YT)
* תי (TY) Although there is not a two-letter word used in this format, there are words that begin with these two letters — denoting location or direction [described as meaning: North, South, Central/Middle, Desert]. Also implies the idea of: with or as an intentional effort.
* תיש (TYSh) <H8495> translated as: “male goat”
— the idea of “actions with impressive outcome” as, the balancing and sheer footed-ness of a goat on a cliff side
Concept of the Balance of Nature,
as sheer-footed – like the Goat but also the bold,
craziness of accomplishment and actions.
אש (ShA) * used in the prefix position of words that denotes the idea of the coming of a destructive force; also infers the concept of the duality of outcome [Creation/Destructive].
Concept of… “If we observe → Nature [Creation]
we can see aspects of God’s Mind”
[Words ending with the (A) usually have the outcome: as the negative aspects of the positioning]
* שאב (ShAB) <H7579> translated as: to draw [water] — used when drawing water from a well for the camels.
* שאג (ShAG) <H7580> translated as: roaring [of a lion -or- as-like one] | additionally, translated as: a rumbling, groan/moan
— also used to relate to water = the sound of water rapids, as the fast/wild waters.
* רב (RB) <H7227> translated as: abundant | רבה (RBH) <H7227> translated as: much, many, great
Concept of Great
[as, abundance of -or- the too much of → can lead to a negative]
Also, ideas like: too much Ego can bring Arrogance
– as a Fine-line of balancing -or- like: Walking a Tight rope
* רב (RB) <H7228> translated as: arrows | – used in Job 16:13 actually as (RB)=his arrows/archers and used in Jeremiah 50:29 (RBYM)=archers
* רבב (RBB) <H7231-7233> translated as: to cast together, increase, in number, to multiply by the myriad | to shoot an arrow
Note: the visual concept of “having a steadiness” [as to hold the bow steady (TY) + the “pulling back of the string of the bow” [aka: to draw back the string] + the release or shooting of the “arrow” (RB)
* There is the implied accuracy [visual of the steer footed-ness of a goat on a cliff] of someone who is a Skilled Archer – not the random person shooting arrows for the first time.
— The positive spectrum of this concept is the “Hitting the Bull’s Eye” -or- even the Splitting of the Arrow, which is already in the Bull’s eye {The Robin Hood story}
— The negative direction of this concept is the idea of Sin as “missing the mark”!
Concept of pinpoint accuracy
Note: The idea of location as “Hitting the Bull’s Eye [of the target]” – versus – The idea of direction as aiming or heading towards it.
[As this is the reflective nature of the concept of the Bereshit, it would imply that Human perceptions are not pinpoint accurate or have difficulty of achieving it.]
Note: רב (RB) is also connected to the title of Jewish spiritual leaders: Rabbi(s) | the Mishnaic Hebrew construct רבי (RBY) meaning “Master” / also translated as: “Teacher”
The observable message here is … In a general way, not all people [people’s ideas/plans] are as good as a goat walking the steer cliff. In other words, we have a great potential to slip and fall.
4 – Meaning Construct
Concept of what Mankind has knowledge about
or is capable of knowing <as an ongoing process>
Also, the idea of staring into the chaos looking for the patterns (or order) within it -or- looking deeper to find the “Fire or Wisdom within”].
Note: The overall concept of the word: “Bereshit,” בראשית (BRAShYT) is not just: In The Beginning, but infers the ongoing process of Creation itself, and as “a patterned/fractal repeating one.”
In addition, there’s an interesting relationship to the idea of equating a 6-letter word to the concept of “Fruit,” in which Bereshit, בראשית (BRAShYT) is made up of 6 letters = [aka: symbolically inferring the concept of the “Fruit from the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil.”
created
The Hebrew word, ברא (BRA) defined as: “to create; to shape,” and translated as: “created.” When paired with בראשית (BRAShYT), it generates a type of encapsulation, implying the idea of the whole of creation (was/is/will be) placed within all of its existence, and not just as a beginning point that was created.
Glyph meaning formula:
Blueprint(Plan) + <brings forth> →
Human Mind + <brings forth> → Mind of God
1 – Linear Construct (BRA)
Note: Breakdowns are already listed previously with the (BRAShYT)
An additional concept is the בר (BR) translated as: Son,
and the א (A) Mind of God = ברא (BRA).
Concept of the Son of God.
Note: The ברא (BRA) = (Son of God) is begotten from within the (BRAShYT) (BRA) (ALHYM) = [In the beginning God created…] but also is (Son of God) <brings forth> the Elohim.
Concept of the Union with Bereshit and Elohim as the origins of the אב (AB) and אמ (AM) [Divine Father and Mother]. As well as the ברא (BRA) = Son of God, as both born from and part of the Bereshit as an aspect of the ongoing Creation process.
2 – Dimensional Construct (BA →R)
* בא (BA) _ Note: Although this is not a biblical Hebrew word, it can be found within other words.
** באה (BAH) <H872> defined as: an entrance to [a building/temple] — used only once in Ezekiel 8:5 and actually written (BBAH) and translated as: “in the entrance.”
Note: The reflection of בא (BA) is אב (AB) = Father
<The idea of what the “Father” reflects is an entrance [aka: door/path/way]>
As the full word, it functions as:
* באר (BAR) <H874> as: to dig, engrave, to explain
* באר (BAR) <H875> as: well, pit, spring
* באר (BAR) <H876> as: well
* באר (BAR) <H877> as: cistern, well, pit
Concepts of securing / structured importance / life-saving
Note: The function of the (A) used as a suffix ending in combinations of letters usually has a negative or the potential of a negative outcome. It’s an aspect of the relationship of creation & destruction. The idea of In order to create something is destroyed — but also that which is destroyed is being sacrificed for the “new” created thing.
God
The most common word translated as “God” [in the Bible] and appears in Genesis 1:1 “In the beginning God created…” — is the Hebrew word: “Elohim,” אלהים (ALHYM) <H430>.
The “masculine” plural name of God as the “Elohim,” אלהים (ALHYM) <H430>. The singular versions are the two-letter root word, “El,” אל (AL) <H410> and 3-letter root word, “Eloh,” אלה (ALH) <H433>.
The fact that it has a plural ending has caused much debate.
Note: A simple way to look at this is: If the word: Yahveh (YHVH) represents: “I am that I am,” then the Elohim (ALHYM) could represent a statement like: “All that I am” – which is both plural and singular.
The [All (or Everything)] is many (or the plural) and I is singular, so Elohim represents more of an explanation rather than a name. Using that word Elohim would be like saying: All of God’s creation or Everything that is God/of God.
It also appears to be a generalization of a reference to that which is an individual’s personal choice of his or her God they chose to worship within a time when there were considered to be many gods, for example: My Elohim is El name… rather than saying Elohim is my Elohim. (All that is, was and will be; the oneness of all/everything; the Divine Mind/Council).)
Note: By removing the plural ending from Elohim (ALHYM) to Eloh (ALH), which in the Islamic faith, the name of God is pronounced as “Allah”.
1 – Linear Construct (ALH+YM) | (A+L+H+Y+M)
* אלה (ALH) <H433> as: This, These

3 – Reflective Construct (MY+H+LA)
* םי (MY) <H4310> translated as: Who?
Note: If ים (YM) represents “All-Time,” then the reflective nature would be the “focused” Effort of Time — as in the “Moment to/by moment” interaction of Effort(s) [a person makes within Life].
Symbolically, the (YM) as “the Flowing River” and the. movement of all of what is in or on it, then the (MY) can be that which is pulled or drawn out of it <like a fish by a fisherman [to take for oneself, family, or others>.

(untranslated)
One of the most commonly overlooked Hebrew words is the את (AT) <H853> — used in Genesis 1 over 20 times. As a word, the את (AT), pronounced: ’ēṯ, is not typically translated
– used as a direct object marker | an untranslatable mark of the accusative case.
1 – Linear Construct (AT)
* את (AT) <H852> as: a potent | sign, miraculous signs, wonders | translated as: “signs” – used 3 times in Daniel (ATYA), (ATVHY), (ATYN)
* את (AT) <H853> as: self [usually not translated]
Note: The את (AT) is used over 11000 according to Strong’s Concordance but also divides this into two other uses of the word.
* The את (AT) <H853> is disregarded, but when there is a prefix, w (V) [written as taw (VAT)], it’s translated as: “and.”
* את (AT) <H854> as: nearness, near, with, together with | among, against, before // translated as: “with” (denoting proximity) in Genesis 4-9.
* את (AT) <H855> as: mattock/coulter/plowshare | a hoe, or other digging implements.
Note: In English, if this word את (AT) gets translated, it’s used as pronouns: “me, him, her, us,” and in the plural form אמת (ATM) <H855> as: “them.” This is understandable from the grammatical perspective because in the English language, the only words that occur in the accusative case are pronouns: “me, him, her, us, whom, and them.”
2 – Dimensional Construct (A_T)
<2-letter words can’t have this function> Reviewing words that represent the concept of a letter :
* אמת (ATM) <H571> as: stability, certainty, truth, truth-worthiness | firmness, faithfulness, right way.
Concept of the Life/Truth born within all the potential [that God will weave into existence]
* אות (ATM) <H225> translated as: consent, agreed – used in Genesis 34:15 …on this [condition] we will consent to you.
Note: As the idea of an interaction (V) within the (AT) or as the monument of the full or Greater potential is conceded to a Lesser one.
3 – Reflective Construct (TA)
* תא (TA) <H8372> translated as: room/chamber [of the guardroom] <the residence of the king’s protectors> — inferring the idea of a lesser space within a greater space [as within a building like: a Castle].
— used in 1 Kings 14:28 and 2 Chronicles 12:11, as well as several variants
used in Ezekiel 40 | <describing the House of the LORD (BYT YHVH)>
4 – Meaning Construct
Concept of All that was/is/will be
[of what God will weave into existence]
– that contains all the potential (greater) of all the
seeds of creation (the alphabet)
Glyph meaning formula:
The Mind of God + <brings forth> → Weaving together
In other words, the Concept of “From the First Cause comes that which is Woven Together” — the idea of how a thing is woven together or the complexity of the creation of a particular thing.
Note: The idea of the (TA) as “Lesser” is a chamber of a room -versus- the (AT) as “Greater” is the whole/all [or more specifically, the how God will weave into existence. — as the [was/is/will be] woven together — the idea of the specific cause [as: output or results of…] from the first cause [or the First Causer = (A), and outputting as: (AT) = God’s Matrix.
Conceptually, the phrase: “It shall come to pass” — The denoting of the process of “The things [something] that will come to pass or become.
Note: The other aspect is that the two letters are the “First and Last Letters of the Hebrew alphabet,” and like the NT (which was or when written in Greek) are the Greek letters: Alpha and Omega. Of course, I must note the phrase in Revelation 22:13 I am the Alpha and Omega, the First and the Last, the beginning and the end!
The basis of the idea of the whole of the alphabet or all of the seeds of creation, as each expresses an aspect of the “potential” and as the building blocks of all of Creation.
Symbolically, this concept is also represented as: a Conifer cone, a.k.a. “Pine cone.” [Many cultures refer to this as a symbol of the spring rebirth – because it is actually the function of the rebirth of “Trees”].
Note: Conifer cone, defined as: the conical or rounded woody fruit of a pine tree, with scales that open to release the seeds.
It’s where seeds are stored—by definition it’s a seed-bearing organ on gymnosperm: a plant that has seeds unprotected by an ovary (from Latin ōvārium ‘egg’) or fruit. [non-flowering] plants/tree].
Concept of the Tree of Life and the “fruit” from it.
Note: This is a similar function to a “Corn Cob” and connects to the “Harvest.” | As well as, references in Sumerian[Assyrian/Babylonian] imagery of Annunaki “holding the pine cone.” | Also, the references to looking like the “Pineal Gland.”
The generalized concept inferring “[who/he/they] who holds the power of all of the potential (or what will come from) of the God’s/gods Plan, as the (AB) = as a “Beginning” or what comes First.
And the as the whole of the God’s Matrix <the (AT)> = as a Greater what comes First and the “End/Last.”
Note: Ancient authors used it as a “strong sign” [as a sign of respect or “reverence,” as to honor the authority of the divine creator/creation – “the awe of the Divine”], literally from the meaning of the Aleph א (A) meaning “Strong” and the Tav ת (T) meaning “Sign.”
The deeper connection is the visual imagery of the Glyphs as Head of the Ox, or as the Mind of God = the primordial First Cause, and the ending with Crossed sticks, as weaving together as the primordial Basket of Creation.
the Heaven
The Hebrew word השמים (HShMYM), which has the prefix letter ה “Hey” (H) usually translated as: “the” is added to the root word שמים (ShMYM) <H8064>, which is defined as: “heaven, sky (air).”
Note: More often than not [in Genesis 1] it has the (H)+(ShMYM) * השמים (HShMYM) used in Genesis 1:1, 1:9, 1:14, 1:15, 1:17, 1:20, 1:26, 1:28, 1:30 — and — שמים (ShMYM) in Genesis 1:8
Glyph meaning formula:
Aspects of Creation + <brings forth> → Life/Truth + <brings forth> →
Effort + <brings forth> → Life/Truth
-vs.-
Revealing [Revelations] + <brings forth> → Aspects of Creation +
<brings forth> → Life/Truth + <brings forth> →
Effort + <brings forth> → Life/Truth
Note: A revealing (H) that brings forth [anything] would infer the idea of a new understanding about it. The use of the (AT) (HShMYM) is making the statement “all that it is/will be” and “all that is revealed” [as how it will be understood] of the (ShM) and the (YM) is referring to how this “plays out over time”.
1 – Linear Construct (H+ShM+YM)
* שמים (ShMYM) <H8064> as, Heaven, “sky” | < Noted to have a word origin from an unused root meaning lofty.
* שמ (ShM) <H8033> as: there, then, thither | First used in Genesis 2:8 “And the LORD God planted a garden eastward in Eden; and there he put the man whom he had formed. | The actual order in Hebrew is first the (VYShM) <H7760> as: “He put” + (ShM) <H8033> as: “there.”
* שמ (ShM) <H8034> translated as: “name” [associated with a name] — inferring the idea of: “to be put [by God].” | Also, described as an appellation, [as a mark, memorial of individuality] and by implication: honor, authority, character.
* שמ (ShM) <H8035> as the Name: Shem (one of Noah’s sons)

* ים (YM) <H3220> as: “Sea” | a sea, large body of water, the Mediterranean Sea, large river, an artificial basin, the west, the south
Note: The idea of the (YM) as a masculine plural ending to (ShM) is the symbolic nature of Time [All-time/God’s Will] as the multiple [“Name(s)”] or the Concept of “the assignment(s).” As the purpose of what something is/does <both as “label and duty”> and assigned to the many individuals = aka: the idea of the “Chosen” people.
The addition of the prefix of the (H) as the Revealing/Revelation of... -or- as “what was/is/will be” <brought forward> in the (ShM+YM) or Names.
Concept of all aspects of how things will be done -or- the influence [the spirit realm will play out]
The idea of How people will express [or play out] their internal nature [as what is truly in their minds or spirit].
Symbolically, as the souls of all people playing out.
Note: There is also the idea that this is an elevated condition of the Mind or Spirit of “Man(kind),” which in later beliefs becomes a separated place, as God’s realm/place [palace] as: the “elevated” [as up in the sky] or divine[Godly] natures get to exist -or- has the place go (as to achieve to be placed — the rewarded place) — in the Afterlife!

3 – Reflective Construct (MYMShH)
* םי (MY) <H3220> translated as: Who?
Note: If ים (YM) represents “All-Time,” then the reflective nature would be the focused Effort of Time — as in the “Moment to/by moment” interaction of Effort(s) [a person makes within Life].
Symbolically, the (YM) as “the Flowing River” and the movement of all of what is in or on it, then the (MY) can be that which is pulled or drawn out of it <like a fish by a fisherman [to take for oneself, family, or others>.
Concept of What is done by Man <as the action taken>, and by “Who.”
Note: An interesting connection to the English use of “My,” as what is mine, is “to own it” or “to claim/take ownership.”

The next use of the word ’ēṯ, את (AT) <H853> has the prefix letter ו (V) pronounced as wə’ēṯ, ואת (VAT). The letter ו (V) is most often translated as: “and.” Although the translation functions properly, it lacks its original meaning. It’s not just an aspect of adding, but something “tethered” to (or from) another.
* (VAT) = The ”All-Revealing Patterns,” or rather “the tethering/connection [God level] as the Matrix (as All “Potential <pine cone>” Patterns)!”

Fig. 3 _ Generations from the “Beginnings”
The Overview
The complexity begins to generate a perspective of order to chaos, by separating into categories: (the idea of what is reflected versus what it’s reflecting). Specifically, the concept of the Divine/Heaven realm versus the Earthly realm, and what is brought forth versus born out of… [the idea of the masculine creation process versus the feminine creation process].
The common themes repeating and building a layered complexity [the Concept of the “Matrix”] = aka: the idea of the word et, את (AT) Glyph Formula: Mind of God + Woven together = God’s Matrix — used as a way to denote the complexity of things built into the word that is placed after it.
Note: The complexity of the woven together <ת(T)> in the (BRAShYT) and the (ALHYM) to the layered connections building into <את(AT)> the Heaven, Earth, then branching out to other words and key Names.
Concept of the “layered/layering” Matrix
as the inner workings of God’s Matrix
The complexity of the “Path of Creation” (YSh) is formatted in a pattern of the six (6) days [in Genesis 1], which presents the idea of place (as: location) versus the what was or is set in place: as the Concept of Names (characters), and how this relates to the “Path of Life” (YM).
Note: This transition is also the idea of (ShT) Seth to (ShM) Shem, which is impeded in Genesis 1 (as: the ShT) Creation’s Weaving versus the Life Weaving (as: the MT) in Genesis 2, which is the first use of the word (ShM) as Naming concept (translated as and there in Genesis 2:8 and put (VYShM) and named (ShM) and placed.
Additionally, the continuing “Concept of Reflection” as expressing the idea of how things branch out and the Efforts they produce [as attributes] = which are expressed as Names.
