The Spinning Two-Edged Sword
We have seen that the Obstacle to overcome in the way to the Tree of Life is YHVH (or Yahshvah, in His pre-existant form), symbolized by the flaming Two-Edged Sword. The Cabala represents the Sword of YHVH by the letter Yod, with the added dimension of motion; about its axis, and through space (revolution and trajectory). The addition of motion to the once static symbol necessarily imposes the question of time upon the imaginary model created by spinning the Yod through space. Let us examine the cosmic significance of the use of this device.
The Spinning Yod is the lowest common symbolic denominator for each of the following:
1. The Atom
2. The Hydrogen Molecule
3. The Nuclei of Living Cells
4. The motion of the Planets, Stars and Galaxies
5. The Collapsars, Singularities; or, "Black Holes of Space.
The Yod: "Life" and "Death"; multiplied by ten according to Cabala, is the very first letter created by man. In its earliest form, it was made by twisting a flat stick in wet clay. Later, an inked brush was dabbed on parchment with a twisting motion. All the other letters of ancient alphabets grew from forms of the Yod. First came the Vav; by the addition of a "Seriph", a sort of small, elongated, Yod-shaped "tail", added to the larger Yod. From these two letters (The roots of the Tetragrammaton), grew the entire alphabet. The Yod represents the letters: Y; I; and J, and the Vav was: V; U; W; and also B; P; and F, in the earliest forms.
" ... Until Heaven and Earth pass away, neither Yod nor Seriph shall pass away from the Law ... " (Mt. 5:17)

Genesis 3:24 So he drove the man out, and he placed at the east of the garden of 'Eden the k'ruvim and a flaming sword which turned in every direction to guard the way to the tree of life. ( Complete Jewish Bible)
k'ruvim is translated as cherubim.
These days we might think in terms of a guided beam weapon directed by the k'ruvim.

So you believe Eden to be a physical locality?

So you believe Eden to be a physical locality? I understand that there were two small areas on the planet from which 95% of economically important plants have come. One is Mesopotamia and the other is a locality in South America. Perhaps the Lord planted two gardens |

in ‘The Epic of Gilgamesh’ the mythical subterranean garden is described as ‘the plain of E.DIN’ – a forerunner to the Garden of Eden in the Hebrew Book of Genesis. The Sumerian term E.DIN meant ‘the abode of the gods’.
Circa 2400 BC, the Sumerians began to lose control of their territory to the Akkadians, a Semitic-speaking group of peoples, who soon dominated the region of Sumer. But they, in turn, yielded to the Gutians c. 2200 BC. Then, after a brief Sumerian revival (c. 2100-2000 BC), the entire region was conquered by the Amorites c. 2000 BC.

One can see that in this story there is a God whose subjects who were banished, by sword most likely. |

The Hebrews ripped off the entire book of Genesis from the Babylonians. Which is why I place no faith in the Bible as God's word.

..in ‘The Epic of Gilgamesh’ the mythical subterranean garden The god Ea (Ja?) is/was responsible for the underground freshwater ocean Apsu (abyss) where he lives/d. I suppose Ea would have wanted a secure food supply. |

There are fabled underground caverns/worlds in Sth America apparently. Plus legends that high ranking germans from Hitler's time knew about them. But Sth America is a long way from Sumer.

From Ancient Greek μῦθος (muthos, “report”, “tale”, “story”).
