THE ANTEDILUVIAN OBSESSION - PART 1
The Cabal are obsessed with the Pre-Flood era and one of those reasons has to do with Enoch from the Bible. He might have inscribed lost wisdom into stone the was lost from the Flood.
Here’s an audio version where I breakdown the entire thread:
The time period before the great flood is known as the Antediluvian Age. There isn’t much information about the events that took place during this time but the cabal obsess over the lost wisdom that was taught during this time. My most recent digs into the cabal and freemasonry show certain occult authors speaking highly of the wisdom of the pre-flood era:
One of the Cabal’s obsessions is with the prophet Enoch, who lived on Earth during the Antediluvian Age. If you read the Bible, Enoch was mentioned only a handful of times:
The Son of Cain (Genesis 4:17)
Enoch walked faithfully with God for 300 years (Genesis 5:22)
Enoch lived a total of 365 years (Genesis 5:23)
His son Methuselah lived for 969 years, the longest living man (Genesis 5:27)
Enoch, the 7th from Adam, great grandfather of Noah (Jude 1:14)
Enoch did not experience death (Hebrews 11:5-6)
The cabal believe that only two people in the Bible were chosen by God to escape death, Enoch and Elijah, who they also believe are the Two Witnesses mentioned in Revelations 11:1-13. The reason they believe this is because it’s mentioned in the apocryphal book, the Gospel of Nicodemus. This book is not part of the the Bible but it is studied and used by the occult. It also includes a story of Jesus descending into hell to save the old patriarchs of the old Testament before his resurrection. The book is blasphemous and the cabal use it to bring more significance onto Enoch.
Here is the quote from the Gospel of Nicodemus
"3 One of them answering, said, I am Enoch, who was translated by the word of God: and this man who is with me, is Elijah the Tishbite, who was translated in a fiery chariot.
4 Here we have hitherto been, and have not tasted death, but are now about to return at the coming of Antichrist, being armed with divine signs and miracles, to engage with him in battle, and to be slain by him at Jerusalem, and to be taken up alive again into the clouds, after 3 days and a half."- Gospel of Nicodemus, Chapter 20:3-4
The cabal and secret societies are obsessed with collecting all the wisdom of the world and keeping it for themselves. It doesn’t matter if the books are blasphemous, if it was written by man, it’s an important piece of work to study. This pattern of attaining wisdom and their search for real history is a major theme within the cabal. The cabal own the largest museums and libraries in the world where they have the secrets of recorded history stored in them so they can keep the truth of the world for themselves. For instance, the Smithsonian Institution is one of these organizations and they are known to alter history while they stash real history in their vaults. This is why it’s very interesting that the cabal use a calendar system that has a start date of when the Earth was created.
Freemasons recognize 4004 - 4000 BC as the creation of the Earth, which is the day Adam and Eve stepped onto Earth. They use the the calendar system known as Anno Lucis (“in the Year of Light”), which is used in Masonic ceremonial or commemorative proceedings and is equivalent to the Gregorian year plus 4000. The Jews recognize the calculated date of the world's creation as October 6th 3761 BC, which is 239 years later than the Freemasons calendar. Both are very similar and this system is called Anno Mundi (“in the year of the world”). Freemasons and the cabal hold significant value to the story of the Bible and the creation of time itself and they believe the Earth is only 6000 years old. What type of wisdom do they hide away in their secret vaults that tells them this is the truth?
One of these items used to be The Book Enoch, which is a story that dives deeper into the time period before the great flood. The Book was hidden and cherished within the cabal, who were known as the initiates, so they could store away the wisdom of human history for themselves. The Book of Enoch would become known to the public in the 18th century when western scholars discovered it was being taught through the Ethiopian Orthodox Tewahedo Church and Eritrean Orthodox Tewahedo Church, who included the Book of Enoch into their Bibles.
Then in 1946, the Book of Enoch was discovered in the Dead Sea Scrolls near the Dead Sea in the West Bank by archeologists. The occult knew about the Book of Enoch, much earlier than 18th century, which proves they have been passing along this story within their cult, since the beginning of time. The reason for this is because it holds Enoch in high regard, who they believe was the first initiate of the wisdom of God.
The Book of Enoch puts extreme focus on the term, ‘the sons of God’, that was mentioned in Genesis:
1 And it came to pass, when men began to multiply on the face of the earth, and daughters were born unto them,
2 That the sons of God saw the daughters of men that they were fair; and they took them wives of all which they chose.
3 And the Lord said, My spirit shall not always strive with man, for that he also is flesh: yet his days shall be an hundred and twenty years.
4 There were giants in the earth in those days; and also after that, when the sons of God came in unto the daughters of men, and they bare children to them, the same became mighty men which were of old, men of renown.
5 And God saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually.- Genesis 6:1-5
The Book of Enoch mentions that the ‘Sons of God’ were the fallen angels that God cast down onto Earth, the Watchers. This exposes one of the purposes of the book, which is to alter the viewpoint of the phrase ‘The Son of God’, which in the New Testament refers to Jesus Christ. Another reason the Book of Enoch is a foundation within the cabal is because it turned Enoch into a God like prophet.
It’s also important to know that the Book of Enoch is not part of the canonical Bible and everything in it should be considered blasphemous since it’s not part of the real scripture.
Enoch and Kabbalah
Enoch is an important figure in kabbalah, a mystical tradition within Judaism. He is revered as a great sage and teacher, and is often seen as a symbol of divine wisdom. Enoch first appears in the Hebrew Bible, where he is described as a man who “walked with God” and was later taken up into heaven without dying. This story was later elaborated in kabbalistic texts, which portray Enoch as a great teacher who imparts wisdom to the other sages.
The Kabbalah is divided into two kinds, the Practical and the Theoretical. Practical Kabbalah has its ancient roots in the "Thirteen Enochian Keys" of Enoch, son of Cain, along with a highly eclectic admixture of material taken from Egyptian, Mesopotamian, and other non-Hebrew sources. The "Thirteen Enochian Keys" of Enoch, son of Cain, are reflected in such works as The Book of the Sacred Magic of Abramelin the Mage, the Greater and Lesser Keys of Solomon, and medieval grimoires such as the Armadel, Goetia/Lemegeton, etc.
The primary text of the mystical Kabbalah that appears to occupy a central place of importance in the hermetic Kabbalah is the Sefer Yetzirah (Book of Formation). The two most prominent contemporary schools of Practical or Hermetic Kabbalah are the Golden Dawn and the Ordo Templi Orientis (O.T.O.). Enoch is also an important figure in the tradition of the Merkavah, a mystical vision of the divine chariot described in the Hebrew Bible.
In Merkabah, Enoch is seen as a visionary who was able to ascend to heaven and gain knowledge of the divine mysteries. The kabbalistic tradition views Enoch as a symbol of divine wisdom, and his story is seen as an inspiration for those who seek to understand the mysteries of the universe. The section known as the Book of Palaces in the Book of Enoch is a ‘Key Text’ in Jewish mysticism because it describes Enoch divine transformation into Metatron.
Enoch, the seventh patriarch in Genesis, is regarded as one of Judaism’s most famous figures because of an abundance of apocryphal literature (non-canonical Biblical texts), particularly during the Hellenistic period (from the third century B.C. to the third century A.D.). His first worshipers had only regarded him as a prophet to God for his piety, but he was later thought to have received secret information from God.
Metatron , the Lesser God
The cabal and secret societies believe that Enoch, also known as the angel Metatron, is the voice of God and the king of all angels in heaven and the celestial scribe. They call him the Lesser YHWH, which you can see is heretical and blasphemous. The early Jewish faith in Babylon after the death of Jesus Christ began speaking of this angelic being, known as Metatron, who was the voice of God.
The cabal wanted to push the idea that there were two Gods in charge of Heaven, Greater YHWH and Lesser YHWH. Metatron is a Greek work that means ‘Near the Throne’, which is why Enoch was given this name. The Hebrew name of Enoch means “someone who is dedicated, trained, and disciplined.”
The Zohar, the holy book of the mystical branch of Judaism called Kabbalah, describes Metatron as "the king of angels" and says that he "rules over the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil" (Zohar 49, Ki Tetze: 28:138). The Zohar also mentions that the prophet Enoch has turned into the archangel Metatron in heaven (Zohar 43, Balak 6:86).
In Kabbalah, Metatron's cube is the shape that represents all the shapes and directs the flow of creative energy in orderly ways.
The Zohar says that God decided to allow Enoch to continue his earthly ministry forever in heaven, describing in Zohar Bereshit 51:474 that, on Earth, “Enoch was working on a book that contained "the inner secrets of wisdom" and then "was taken from this Earth to become a heavenly angel." Freemasons also believe that all the supernal secrets were delivered into his hands and he, in turn, delivered them to those who merited them.
Zohar Bereshit 51:475 reveals:
"Thus, he performed the mission that the Holy One, blessed be he, assigned to him. One thousand keys were delivered into his hands and he takes one hundred blessings every day and creates unifications for his Master.”
The Talmud mentions in Hagiga 15a that God allowed Metatron to sit down in his presence (which is unusual because others stood up in God’s presence to express their reverence for him) because Metatron is constantly writing: " ... Metatron, to whom was given permission to sit down and write the merits of Israel."
Some esoteric literature, such as 3 Enoch, identifies Enoch as Metatron, the angel which communicates God's word. In consequence, Enoch was seen, by this literature and the Rabbinic kabbalah of Jewish mysticism, as the one who communicated God's revelation to Moses, and, in particular, as the dictator of the apocryphal Book of Jubilees.
In the Book of Jubilee, it says that “an angel of the Lord” told Moses on Mount Sinai, when he also received the Ten Commandments, that Enoch was “the first among men that are born on Earth who learn writing, knowledge and wisdom.” It says that Enoch wrote down “the signs of Heaven” (the zodiac signs) according to their months in a book. It was said that human beings would know the seasons of the years in relation to the order of the months and their respective stellar and planetary influences. The indication is that Enoch received this information from extraterrestrial angelic sources, i.e. the Watchers, and therefore he was a cultural exemplar.
In the Zohar, Metatron serves as the patron angel of children and was the angel who led the Hebrew people through the wilderness during the 40 years they spent traveling to the Promised Land. Sometimes Jewish believers mention Metatron as an angel of death who helps escort people’s souls from Earth to the afterlife.
In classical Rabbinical literature, there are various views of Enoch. One view regarding Enoch that was found in the Targum Pseudo-Jonathan, which thought of Enoch as a pious man, taken to Heaven, and receiving the title of Safra rabba (Great scribe). After Christianity was completely separated from Judaism, this view became the prevailing rabbinical idea of Enoch's character and exaltation. According to Rashi "Enoch was a righteous man, but he could easily be swayed to return to do evil.
Among the minor Midrashim, esoteric attributes of Enoch are expanded upon. In the Sefer Hekalot, Rabbi Ishmael is described as having visited the Seventh Heaven, where he met Enoch, who claims that earth had, in his time, been corrupted by the demons Shammazai, and Azazel, and so Enoch was taken to Heaven to prove that God was not cruel. Later elaborations of this interpretation treated Enoch as having been a pious ascetic, who, called to mix with others, preached repentance, and gathered a vast collection of disciples, to the extent that he was proclaimed king. Under his wisdom, peace is said to have reigned on earth, to the extent that he is summoned to Heaven to rule over the sons of God.
Enoch and the number 7 to the cabal are synonymous because he is known as the 7th generation from Adam. They also believe Enoch is located in the 7th level of Heaven and in the Book of Enoch there are seven archangels mentioned. In the picture below, notice the 7 stars under the keystone of the Royal Arch.
The 13th Degree, the Keystone of the Arch
The 13th Degree is known in Great Britain as “The Royal Arch of Enoch,” and in the United States as the “Royal Arch of Solomon” or “Master of the Ninth Arch.” Enoch appears as visionary builder in a legend whose elements derive from existing “Royal Arch” masonic ritual, biblical accounts of Solomon’s Temple, the Enochs of Genesis, Josephus’ Sethite pillars, and Samuel Lee’s account of excavations on Jerusalem’s Temple Mount in the reign of Julian the Apostate.
The number 13 to kabbalists refers to their concept of God, the word Shekinah refers to the manifestation of God’s glory, which occurred at Solomon’s Temple. Freemasons believe ‘Shekinah is man’, meaning they pursue to glorify man. Thirteen are the attributes of Hashem, which is used to refer to God, particularly as an epithet for the Tetragrammaton, when avoiding God's more formal title, Adonai ('my master').
The 13th degree has major significance in Freemasonry:
“This degree, in fact, forms the climax of Ineffable Masonry; it is the keystone of the arch, and discovers that which is revealed in the succeeding degree of Perfection. it is a most important and interesting grade, and so intimately connected with its successor as to appear like a section of that degree.
The shaded beauties of the sacred words that have been hitherto revealed, and the lessons and virtues that have so gradually been inculcated, in this degree receive a climax, and culminate in the development of the great mystery of Ineffable Masonry.
The dark clouds and mists and have hitherto veiled the sacred mysteries now begin to be dispelled: the glorious dawn illumines the E with its bright effulgence, and its rays penetrate into dark and hidden places.”
- The Book of the Ancient & Accepted Scottish Rite of Freemasonry (1884), Charles T. McClenechan
Rev. James Anderson’s ‘The Constitutions of the Freemasons’ (1723) included a footnoted account of “Enoch’s Pillars,” in line with a tradition first recorded in the Palaea Historica (late 9th–early 10th c.), that Enoch inscribed all known science on marble and brick to survive the Flood.
"The solar character of Enoch admits of no doubt.
He is brought into connection with the building of towns-a solar feature.
He lives exactly three hundred and sixty-five years, the number of days of the solar year; which can not be accidental.”
- Chap v., sect. viii., p. 127, Martineau's Translation.
The twin pillars used in Masonic ritual are drawn from old Hebrew and Biblical allegories, as are many other Masonic symbols. In the first book of his Antiquities of the Jews, Flavius Josephus, a Jewish historian, mentions the pillars. In this chapter, Josephus describes how Enoch used two pillars to guard Adam’s prophecy about the world being destroyed twice, once by fire and once by flood. To protect the knowledge from the fire and the water, Enoch erected a brick pillar, and a stone pillar, respectively. It is explicitly stated in Masonic ritual that pillars are used to preserve and protect information.
The essential premise of the “lost pillars of Enoch” is that, namely, there was a time, before the Flood, when knowledge of God and knowledge of science were one. This information was inscribed on the pillars near a massive stone, which the Jews call ‘The Foundation Stone’ and the Freemasons call ‘The Stone of Foundation’.
The Stone of Foundation
The Foundation Stone in Israel is what is left of Solomon’s Temple and is the rock at the center of the Dome of the Rock in Jerusalem. It is also known as the Pierced Stone, because it has a small hole on the southeastern corner that enters a cavern beneath the rock, known as the Well of Souls. The Freemasons believe that under the stone is where Enoch created a temple during the antediluvian age to carry the wisdom of man after the Great Flood. It is also believed this is what the Knights of the Templar found when they went to Jerusalem and have been keeping this major secret within secret societies ever since.
This series of legends commences with the patriarch Enoch, who is supposed to have been the first consecrator of the Stone of Foundation. The legend of Enoch is very interesting and important in masonic science.
The legend in full is as follows:
“Enoch, under the inspiration of the Most High, and in obedience to the instructions which he had received in a vision, built a temple under ground on Mount Moriah, and dedicated it to God. His son, Methuselah, constructed the building, although he was not acquainted with his father's motives for the erection. This temple consisted of nine vaults, situated perpendicularly beneath each other, and communicating by apertures left in each vault.
This is why the Masonic 13th Degree is also known as the “Master of the Ninth Arch.” The ninth arch is in reference to the final vault in Enoch’s underground Temple.
Enoch then caused a triangular plate of gold to be made, each side of which was a cubit long; he enriched it with the most precious stones, and encrusted the plate upon a stone of agate of the same form. On the plate he engraved the true name of God, or the tetragrammaton, and placing it on a cubical stone, known thereafter as the Stone of Foundation, he deposited the whole within the lowest arch.
When this subterranean building was completed, he made a door of stone with a ring of iron attached at the opening of the uppermost arch. When the door stone was opened it would hide this ring of iron and even Enoch himself was not permitted to enter the temple but once a year. After the destruction of the world by the deluge, all knowledge of the vault or subterranean temple, and of the Stone of Foundation, with the sacred and ineffable name inscribed upon it, was lost for ages to the world.
At the building of the first temple of Jerusalem, the Stone of Foundation again makes its appearance. When digging the foundations of the temple, David found a certain stone, on which the ineffable name of God was inscribed, and he deposited it into the Holy of Holies. This is a favorite theory of the legend-mongers of the Talmud.
The masonic tradition is substantially the same as the Jewish, but it substitutes Solomon for David. The theory is that that the stone was discovered by Solomon, which was the identical one that had been deposited in his secret vault by Enoch. This Stone of Foundation, the tradition states, was subsequently removed by King Solomon, and deposited in a secret and safer place.
The masonic tradition agrees with the Jewish, for we find in the third chapter of the Treatise on the Temple written by Maimonides, the following narrative:
"There was a stone in the Holy of Holies, on its west side, on which was placed the ark of the covenant, and before it the pot of manna and Aaron's rod. But when Solomon had built the temple, and foresaw that it was, at some future time, to be destroyed, he constructed a deep and winding vault under ground, for the purpose of concealing the ark, wherein Josiah afterwards, as we learn in the Second Book of Chronicles, xxxv. 3, deposited it, with the pot of manna, the rod of Aaron, and the oil of anointing."
The Talmudical book Yoma gives the same tradition, and says that:
"The ark of the covenant was placed in the centre of the Holy of Holies, upon a stone rising three fingers' breadth above the floor, to be, as it were, a pedestal for it. This stone, the Rabbins call the Stone of Foundation, and give us a great deal of trash about it."
In the thirteenth degree of the Ancient and Accepted Rite, the Stone of Foundation is conspicuous as the resting-place of the sacred delta. It will be seen that the masonic traditions on the subject of the Stone of Foundation do not differ from these Rabbinical ones, although they give a few additional circumstances.
But the most important point of the legend of the Stone of Foundation is its intimate and constant connection with the tetragrammaton or Shemhamphorasch. It is this name, inscribed upon it, within the sacred and symbolic delta, that gives to the stone all its masonic value and significance. It is upon this fact that its whole symbolism depends.”
Seal of the Cabal God
The Sigillum Dei (seal of God) called by John Dee is a magical diagram, composed of two circles, a pentagram, two heptagons, and one heptagram, and is labeled with the name of God and his angels. It was an amulet with the magical function that, according to one of the oldest sources (Liber Juratus), allowed the initiated magician to have the power to commune with angels and archangels.
The so created circular band will be at an apex of a small cross and from this starting point proceed from left to right 72 Latin letters, which vary in tradition (MS Sloane 3853: h, t, o, e, x, o, r, a, b, a, s, l, a, y, q, c, i, y, s, t, a, l, g, a, a, o, n, o, s, v, l, a, r, y, c, e, k, s, p, f, y, o, m, e, n, e, a, u, a, r, e, l, a, t, e, d, a, t, o, n, o, n, a, o, y, l, e, p, o, t, m, a), the sum forming the Shemhamphorasch, the ineffable name of God ("magnum nomen Domini Semenphoras licterarum 72"), showing a clear link to Jewish tradition.
Probably the oldest known description and image of the Sigillum Dei is the 14th Century Liber Juratus (also Liber Sacratus, Liber sacer sive Juratus, or Sworn Booke), attributed to Honorius, son of Euclid.
Its date of composition is uncertain, but it is possibly mentioned as Liber Sacer in the 13th century, apparently asserting a date in the High Middle Ages. The first certain historical record is the 1347 trial record of Etienne Pepin from Mende, France. Johannes Hartlieb (1456) mentions it as one of the books used in necromancy. Sloane MS 313, dating to the late 14th or early 15th century, was once in the possession of John Dee.
If you remember, in my ORIGINS OF THE KNIGHTS TEMPLAR - PART 2, John Dee is known as the founder of the Rosicrucians and the mentor to Francis Bacon. He taught Bacon Kabbalah and enochian magic, which Bacon used to create his plan for New Atlantis.
Dee’s journals also refer to this language as "Celestial Speech", "First Language of God-Christ", "Holy Language", or "Language of Angels". He also referred to it as "Adamical" because, according to Dee's angels, it was used by Adam in Paradise to name all things. The term "Enochian" comes from Dee's assertion that the Biblical patriarch Enoch had been the last human (before Dee and Kelley) to know the language.
The book can be classified as a "Solomonic grimoire" due to its heavy use of angelic powers and seals like those found in The Key of Solomon, and its own claim to "lay out the works of Solomon".
Continued in Part 2 ….
There were two Enochs, two totally different bloodlines. Genesis 4:17 is Cain's, but Genesis 5:18 is Seth's.
Relative to Part One I find it interesting that "Luminous Religion" 景教 was used during the Tang dynasty for Christianity (Syriac Church of the East). Wish I could post pics here. Have to rethink some things????
