Introduction:
My phone calls to Tel Aviv, Israel in December of 2019 were more than rewarding. My fourteen years of intense study and contemplation resulting in accumulated notes of over 150,000 words[1] would not go unrequited. I had called to talk to Jewish Scholars at the Israel Institute of Biblical Studies about my numerous discoveries and the book I had written, the focus of which was restoring awareness of the Divine Feminine which had been translated out of the original biblical source texts, and then altered in the NT where the Holy Spirit is portrayed as being the third member of an all-male Trinity, which contradicts all of Creation and thousands of years of Judaic understanding. In all my biblical and scientific research, I came to having a great respect for both:
Look deep into nature and you will understand everything better
—Albert Einstein
For the invisible things of God from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that all men are without excuse.
— Romans 1:20
It was my study of the ancient Hebrew and Aramaic source texts that became a significant part of making this possible, along with much contemplation of how these concepts of masculine and feminine are not only woven into the fabric of the Universe, they describe the very essence of who we are: body, soul and spirit; and furthermore help us understand our communications with one another or lack thereof, which I learned is at the very core of Mankind’s catastrophic failures, including how Christianity has been unable to fulfill the biblical prophecies regarding World Peace.
The first scholar I spoke to became excited, listening intently as I told her about my book. She put me on hold so she could relay my discoveries to her supervisor, who later in a second phone call did the same thing and spoke to his supervisor, who immediately offered me VIP status.
They told me time and again how not only were my groundbreaking discoveries accurate, as they knew they were backed up by their ancient Hebrew texts, but they found them to be unbelievably advanced, telling me I was beyond all 45,000 of their students worldwide and even offered me a teaching position.
Yet it was not until after the call that I realized what this really meant: Christian theologians have been ignoring and rejecting what Jewish scholars have known for thousands of years regarding the meanings behind certain Hebrew words and their most accurate translations. Yet now it appears their language, given to them by God which they carefully preserved, could prove to be their greatest legacy whereby they could once again become a blessing to all the families of the earth as God promised Abraham long ago: Confirming a Revelation of God being revealed by modern science, promised in both the Old and New Testaments that was always destined to create World Peace.
After 10,000 hours of biblical study and contemplation of our metaphoric universe spanning fifty years, I came to the realization our English Bibles were the end-product of historic manipulation and intentional mistranslation of the Old Testament Hebrew as well as the words of Jesus in Aramaic that effectively removed the Divine Feminine and thereby altered Mankind’s perception of God (the Gods who are one) and the essence of who we are, created in their image.
In Aramaic, the word spirit is clearly feminine as in Holy Spirit. In truth, there are Aramaic scholars who have provided English translations directly from the well-known and most ancient Aramaic language spoken by Jesus and his disciples in which they restored the ancient feminine Eloah in verses such as the one I used on the cover of this book: “Blessed are the pure in heart: for they shall see Eloah” (Matthew 5:8). The word Eloah was used fifty-seven times in the Hebrew OT being quite similar to the Aramaic language. In yet another translation[2] via a unique Aramaic dialect, Eloah is spelled Aloha; revealing how the word traveled across continents over the millennia all the way to Hawaii, where it is used as a warm, soft greeting that means love. Contrariwise, it is rather obvious the same word was translated in Arabic into the male Allah.
Yet the effect of all this went far beyond the Christian and Islamic demographics which now make up over 50 percent of the world’s population; as it had a profound influence on the rest of the world looking in, due to the great fame of Abraham as well as Jesus, who as the fullness of the Godhead in bodily form, was in truth the temple of the Holy Ghost: Her grace, wisdom, and gentleness being encased and protected as it were by the Alpha Male.
As the shekinah glory in the OT (always known by Jewish scholars to be feminine) She was also veiled from sight[3] in the holy of holies while the Israelites were on their journey through the desert and She was leading them via a pillar of cloud by day and a pillar of fire by night, while Christ was following them.
They drank of that spiritual Rock that followed them: and that Rock was Christ. ___1 Co 10:4
As many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God. ___Romans 8:14
Then was Jesus led up of the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted of the devil. ___Luke 4:1
Jesus, being full of the Holy Ghost returned from Jordan and was led by the Spirit into the wilderness. ___Matthew 4:1
If ye be led of the Spirit, ye are not under the law. ___Galatians 5:18
This also explains how Moses became the meekest man on earth[4] and even more patient than Yahweh/Christ when Moses stopped him from destroying Israel in Exodus 32:10 when he used the telling phrase “Let me alone that I may consume them,” revealing it was not good for the alpha male in heaven (or the alpha male on earth, Adam) to be alone (Genesis 2:18). Yet afterward Yahweh repented, revealing a staggering depth of humility. See Job 4:17.
While some may think this is a reversal from the husband being the head of his home and his wife, that is not where this book is going. What I will point out however is how God did not place the man over the woman until after their fall in Genesis 3:16, which tells us this was not the way we were originally designed to function as husbands and wives. The fall of man (as it is often called in biblical theology) was a fall from everything the man and his wife were created to be.
Notice how Christ through the temporary process of salvation was always destined to restore us all into this very image of God … to be like God, which is God’s eternal purpose laid out for us in Genesis 1:26–27, for the joy and eternal pleasure[5] of divine fellowship as we can only be one with God to the extent we are like God.
This book reveals how these concepts of male and female have been woven into the fabric of the universe and the essence of who we are physically, emotionally, and spiritually, which in turn reveals the mystery of why humanity has been in conflict for thousands of years. We missed the true message of surrender at the cross of Christ as revealing the power of feminine stillness to conquer the unforgiving justice of male domination in religious leaders separated from God who crucified their Messiah, when the purpose of divine masculine power had been made to conquer evil.
Yet what truly becomes fascinating is to realize how Creation has been telling us this all along in profound and stunning clarity revealed as a central theme in this book, which we can only understand by using our imagination to behold the invisible, a crucial part of the logos/logic that lights every man that comes into the world. (See John 1:9.)
Only then does this concept become a powerful tool for Mankind in the realization Psalm 19:1-4 and Romans 1:20 have always revealed Creation as being the Word of God. For only then do all the pieces of the puzzle fit together perfectly, designed by our Creator to communicate Universal Truth in a way that all of us can understand, regardless of our differing languages, cultures or even religion: As this Truth surpasses them all.
My greater purpose for writing this book is to reveal how this alteration of the feminine being removed, has had a profound effect on all of Mankind in the realization our Imagination of God also dictates how we see ourselves, relate to one another, and more so how we transform ourselves into the very image of who we imagine God to be.
I was in my early forties when like many, I came to the realization that there was not only something wrong with the world and all the division created by religion; there was something wrong with Christianity and perhaps this book we call the Word of God. It was religious men in particular, who in demanding respect from others were historically engaged in arguments and debate that led to endless conflict not only in the world of religion but also in the atheistic regimes whose dictators slaughtered millions more… more than all the religious wars combined.
About that same time, it became clear to me how difficult it was to convince anyone (especially religious people who saw themselves as being authorities) that they might not be seeing things clearly let alone—God forbid—suggest they might be wrong. Yet atheists themselves have logically concluded, how could they all be right when they cannot even agree with one another?
Yet unknown to most Christians, the Old Testament foretold the unity of all believers and world peace via the Perfect Knowledge of God, which Jesus echoed when he said, “By this shall all men know that you are my disciples if you have love one to another.”[A1] (John 13:35). If all men are not yet aware we are the disciples of Jesus, then clearly we have yet to learn how to truly love one another and all that entails.
While a reader may find numerous takeaways in this book such as the sanctity of a mother and her unborn child being an earthly reflection of our heavenly Elohim, and how there are only two genders created in their image to become one in the sanctity of marriage; it is here I will mention what I consider the most practical takeaway from this entire book: how the billions of men who imagine God to be a lone alpha male have created themselves into this same image and seeing themselves as being in competition with one another for preeminence, have shut down the feminine part of themselves, which in one word is receptivity to the seed, which is the Word of God in one another and in every man (John 1:9). This is exactly how we have failed to love one another.
Is it mere coincidence that this unique and special love experienced in marriage was the first thing God commanded the first couple to do? Saying: Be fruitful and multiply? Is it not interesting how men seem even more interested in the second thing God commanded, which was taking dominion over the earth and all the living creatures? Except they insist on dominating one another… till death they part.
We live in a tempestuous world, one in which we desperately need to find the quiet solace that is only found in the spiritual Stillness at the center of these religious and political storms that are ravaging the world. Ours is a world where religion (along with politics) seems to be filled with men (and some women who have allowed their masculine side to override their femininity leaving them out of balance as well) who like a multitude of little dictators insist on playing the authoritative male role of dominating everyone with their words and their theology (or politics) or point of view, while refusing to humble themselves and play the feminine role of listening and receiving the knowledge, understanding, and wisdom that others have gained in their own journeys. Whether we are male or female,[6] we all have the male Logos/Logic/Word within us, which provides the answers to the many problems we are facing today in every stratum of society, in every nation on earth.
I have had a few Christians quote that one little verse to me (note 33 below) as though it could cancel out everything else written in the Bible and expressed in all Creation. I asked them, “Does that mean you and your husband or wife are no longer male and female? Are you serious?” Even more concerning are Christians who say they find my teaching confusing regarding the male and female as though it were so hard to understand this reality we all experience of actually being male and female or so hard to imagine having both a heavenly father and a heavenly mother.
I have yet to hear anyone say, “When I was a child, I understood having a father, but it was always confusing to me how I could have a mother as well.” To them, I will try to make it even simpler, by once again pointing them to Creation. The Gods live in a dimension we call heaven of which the air surrounding our earth is simply a metaphor. When it comes to heavenly creatures such as swans and other waterfowl, the little chicks or ducklings are always following their mothers while the role of their fathers is to protect them. As people created in the image of the Gods, mothers primarily lead their children into adulthood while fathers provide, protect and play the role of primary chastiser. The first leads the way while the latter gets us back in the way if we ever stray. I tend to think of fathers as being like guardrails who keep us on the road or bump us back into the straight and narrow. Consider this…
The first time Yahweh appears in Genesis 2 (much like the light of conscience) he is not actually leading the way but rather telling Adam what not to do—Thou shalt not eat of the tree. Over five hundred years before Christ, Confucius gave us the version of the golden rule that tells us: Do not do things to others you would not want done to you. One of the hardest things I ever did was to remain receptive and learn from others when they refused to listen to me or mocked me for seeing things differently after I carefully studied and examined everything I had been taught.
My Eureka! moment came seventeen years ago when I began sharing my poetry with Christians. While a few men had encouraging words, most were dismissive of it while women were so touched that at times their eyes were filled with tears. And I said to myself “the women seem to be more like God than the men, but how could that be?”. Was it not man who was created in the image of God? And I immediately recalled Genesis 1:26–27 which reads, “Let us make man in our image after our likeness … male and female.” That was when it hit me—the power of paradigm!
I cannot tell you how many times I read those verses over the years but had never noticed the obvious. That day was the beginning of a new journey for me, both in biblical study and contemplation of ourselves along with our Metaphoric Universe, to see if I could find a clear pattern of these masculine and feminine concepts in Creation. This book is largely the result of that search.
I learned that when we were embryos, we were all feminine until a certain Y-chromosome was added resulting in half of the population becoming men. Why? The answer is simple. We were created in the image of Elohim, the only word used for our Creator in Genesis 1, 31 times, and 2,570 times throughout the rest of the Old Testament. I learned from Jewish scholars that Elohim is the plural of the feminine Eloah with a male ending, “him,” which makes the word plural. In other words, it is one word used to describe a mother and a son who are one. The NT opens likewise with an Expectant Virgin and her male Christ child, who were one. A Virgin as an earthly reflection of the heavenly Holy Spirit, which would mean She was alone before time began…
