1
And it came to pass that the angel did speak again unto me, saying: Look!
2
And I opened up my eyes, and there I saw the angel of YHVH standing between the earth and the heavens, and in his hand was the chereb.
3
¶ And so it was that Raziel (רזיאל God is my secret) who is Raphael (רְפאל healing of God) did speak unto me, saying: YHVH did speak unto Moses and Zipporah in that day, saying:
4
If thou desireth the chereb, and to pass it down from generation to generation, then know that thou who desires it must first fast for three days from food and drink, except once in the evenings,
5
And when thou shall eat, thou shall first wash thy hands in salt, eating only unleavened bread, and drinking only water for three days, and this shall be thy fast:
6
On the first day that thou should fast, before thou lay down to retire, thou shall bathe once and then no more for the three days, and thy sleep shall be sweet.
7
And thou shalt pray in secret three times daily, saying: Blessed art thou YHVH, O Lord, our Elohim, who opens the gates of the firmament, and givest light to the whole world and its inhabitants, with the multitude of Thy mercies, who teachest Thy people, Israel, Thy Torah, and revealeth unto Israel the chereb. Grant me thy Torah that I, Thy servant, will be given authority over this chereb, that I shall be thy servant, that Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven: So mote it be, Amen.
8
¶ And now, did not Haniel teach it to thee to do so when thou should meditate facing east those three days?
9
And now you see that the Breath of YHVH be upon thee, and that you have been delivered into the Presence,
10
And that we, the malakim of YHVH are here to serve thee, should you be as a pupil to us, as thy master.
11
And your eyes have been illuminated, and your heart doth see, and now do you behold that which is hidden.
12
¶ And I did behold that thou did wash thyself in a stream, immersing thyself in living water;
13
Therefore, because you have been born again of water and of fire, you have gone forth to fulfill all righteousness.
14
And now, because of this, ye shall die not, and are clean, and the Breath hath fallen upon thee, so long as thou doth desire to be holy unto YHVH and walk in teshuvah before YHVH, your Elohim.
15
Therefore, prepare thyself now, for you shall be given to wear the mantel of righteousness.
16
¶ Before the beginning of the creation of this world is the crown (Keter) of YHVH,
17
And Ha’Elohim hath given thee knowledge (Da’at), from before the foundation of this world,
18
And because of this, you have received wisdom (Chokhmah) from before the creation of this world.
19
And being born again, this is the first day of thy creation, in the which you have received of the mercy (Chesed) of YHVH;
20
And because you have received of the mercy, you have been given strength (Gevurah), and this is the second day of your creation.
21
¶ And in the first day before the creation of this world you were crowned with an eternal crown, and given the left and right eyes that you should see;
22
Therefore, in the first two days of your creation, you have been given hands, the right hand to receive in the mercy of El Elyon, and the left to take the strength of YHVH, your Elohim.
23
And being able to give and take in righteousness, in the third day of your creation, you were given compassion to see the beauty (Tif’eret) of the creation of YHVH, for YHVH is the Creator.
24
And the beauty of this, the creation of Yah YHVH, neither gives nor takes, therefore it is neither to the right nor to the left upon that tree that doth grow in faith upon thy heart.
25
¶Yet to see the fullness of this creation, Ha’Elohim should give thee feet to walk upon the path;
26
Therefore, the fourth day of this creation thy right foot is planted in eternity (Netzach) that you should receive of the goodness of the path.
27
And thy left foot is planted in thy submission to YHVH, for the glory (Hod) of El Elyon, that thou should receive all that Yah doth have for thee, and this is the fifth day.
28
¶ And so it is that on the sixth day of this creation, you are given the very foundation (Yesod) that your feet shall be planted in their walk, neither going in nor out, right nor left, but straight to God (Israel).
29
And this too, like the crown of YHVH and the beauty of this creation, is neither to the right nor to the left upon that tree whose seed did grow from the Word of the Torah that was planted in thy heart.
30
Therefore, the kingdom (Malchut) is the seventh day of this creation, also being neither to the right nor to the left, for it is upon that straight path of understanding (Binah) hidden upon thy heart.
31
¶ And behold, this is the tree that has taken root within thee, springing up unto everlasting life,
32
And this because of thy diligence, and thy faith, and thy patience with the Word of the Torah, for you have nourished it, that it hath taken root in you.
33
And the fruit of the tree of life everlasting (En Sof) is most precious, being sweet above all that is sweet, and white above all that is white, and pure above all that is pure;
34
Therefore, eat of it with patience and long-suffering, that you shall never hunger nor thirst again.
