And what shall the Torah teach you, O Israel?
What secrets should she desire you to learn from her?
2
From the very beginning, Moses taught
that YHVH did divide that light from the darkness,
3
And when mankind is given to know good from evil,
or to separate the light from darkness,
so it is that they can tell the Presence from the adversary,
4
And so it is that Israel too must give herself unto YHVH,
that He should divide the light from the darkness,
and it shall be given us to know.
5
And in that light that does break through the darkness,
you shall behold the pathways white and delightsome,
6
Think not that they are as water,
for they are not paths in mercy
but of life itself;
7
That of the flesh is not that of the spirit,
for in the flesh lies death
and in the spirit life;
and so it is that there are two sets of tablets:
8
Upon the sapphire tablets is inscribed the Torah,
and upon the emerald tablets is the secrets of the temple of YHVH.
9
And when Moses was given the Torah,
Israel was not ready,
and so it was that the tablets were broken
and destroyed by the hand of Moses.
10
And so it was that Moses was commanded
to make a second set of tablets,
also of sapphire,
upon which is written the Torah:
11
And the Torah of sapphire is the right hand of El’Olam,
and the covenant;
and the Torah or emerald is the left hand of El’Olam,
even life;
12
And betwixt these is the Torah of marble
that unites the right and the left,
and written upon it is the heart,
13
And there are thirty-two paths
cut from that same marble
that does connect them,
and this is the very tree of life.
14
And this tree can only be found
when mankind should eat
from that tree of the knowledge of good and evil,
15
For only then can the light be divided from the darkness,
and the earth formed from out of that void.
16
And I, Neum, the Oracle, have seen the tree
as I have walked about the garden in vision;
17
And there is the Eden of the earth,
and the Eden of the heavens,
and these are one creation.
18
And that creation is thus:
Life nephesh which is the birth of the soul,
life ruach which is the breath and awareness of Ha’Elohim,
life neshamah which is the understanding of YHVH,
life chayah which is the oneness of YHVH,
and life yechidah which is life the eternal creation of YHVH.
19
And these may be seen in the En-Sof Adam Kadmon:
intelligence,
spirit,
flesh,
soul,
and yachid –
the eternal life given olam ha’ba;
20
Therefore, know O Israel,
that there is no beginning nor end to life
for there is not beginning or ending
to YHVH or His creation.
21
Why then is Israel given the Torah of sapphire, Judah?
We keep the sapphire temple,
when shall we be given the Torah of emerald?
And what of the Torah of marble?
22
O Judah! O Israel!
Do you not know that these are given?
The mysteries of YHVH are before our eyes,
if we will but see them!
23
YHVH did know that the first tablets should be destroyed,
and would it have been better for them not to be given?
24
I say unto you: No,
for YHVH knows all things,
therefore YHVH creates and YHVH destroys;
25
YHVH Elohim is the Creator,
and YHVH, our Elohim, is destroyer;
yet all that YHVH destroys YHVH heals;
26
Therefore, there is a wisdom in YHVH
that the first Torah was given,
for in the letters written upon the tablets are the covenant
between Israel and our Elohim.
27
And had the Torah not been written
by the hand of YHVH
there should be no day and no night,
no earth and no sky;
28
For the heavens and the earth,
they do belong to YHVH,
the Creator,
29
And the Torah of sapphire cannot be destroyed,
for it is written upon the heavens,
as they who read do know;
30
And the Torah of Moses was written
by the finger of YHVH
that the stories should be known
when the stars would no longer be read,
31
For the Torah shall forever be told from mouth to ear,
but these shall change as Israel does forget her Elohim.
32
And this Torah was first given unto the whole earth,
but mankind would not circumcise their hearts,
and thus was Israel set apart;
33
Therefore, through Israel shall the creation be finished,
and Eden restored,
but not yet;
34
For in the last days,
the Torah of sapphire shall be written upon the hearth of the earth,
and sealed within the hearts of tzaddikimare,
yet they shall know it not.
35
And the warmth of that fire shall gather them,
that they shall find safety and peace in Zion:
36
And though Babylon shall seek to make war with them,
they shall not find them;
37
And when Zion shall be found,
their peace shall be so great
that all nations shall fear them.
38
And this shall they say:
War not against Zion,
for should our people see their way,
they shall leave us and serve us no more!
39
And El’Olam shall stand on high,
and YHVH shall be in their high places,
and the Presence of Elohim shall go before them,
for they shall be one.
