Recap

I write as a man unqualified to address these issues, but I am compelled to try. As above, so below. That there is correlation is understood, but the relationship between heaven and earth is very complex and of vital importance. When the realms were created, an expanse perceived as a firmament was introduced to divide the higher from the lower, the light from the darkness, and to rule reality within the operation of discrete systems that are integrated throughout the expanse, where night and day are One. The times of creation are not linear, as the natural mind would inform us; but circular, as memory and intuition suggest to us, the view that is gaining favor with science. As HaShem informed Jeremiah, “Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, before you were born, I set you apart; I appointed you as a prophet to the nations.”

Our paths begin in heaven, not on earth; and our futures will find us on one of any number of heaven’s mansions as we explore everlasting life; but for that to occur, we must first pass through the eye of the needle: through heaven’s farther gate and into realms that eye has not seen nor ear, heard. The gatekeeper is the creator, but iniquity is hidden in the nexus between what is above and those things that are below.

Neither bad nor good, iniquity is a reagent that operates under the purview of the creator. It’s not subject to the laws of temporal realms, though all realms are bound by the same principles, in that they are of the father. Although iniquity and its operations function in a realm that’s beyond the known realms of heaven or earth, its effects are experienced in the temporal realms because they are intrinsic to the dimensions of life.

We are taught that HaShem, alone, is perfect—that there is none good but la. This conflation isn’t scriptural; but if we tie the head to the tail, the correlation becomes clearer. The Tree of Life is not rooted in created realms, but in the eternal, where it is hidden with la. The father is responsible for all things, as he agrees; and from the beginning, the father’s word has proclaimed his work to be “good” and “very good.”

The good creator of a universe that is both good and very good gave to mankind laws that were also good—the ten sayings— followed by laws that were not good: not “bad” laws, mind you, but laws that fell somewhat short of being “good.” The “not good” laws are the statutes and ordinances of the Levitical priesthood, whose initial purpose is to meet man mda in his fallen state through metaphor and to map out the pathway that would lead mankind back to the messianic measurement of the good Adam mda, Torah’s Son of God, who fulfills the will of HaShem in all his ways.

Lucifer wasn’t an inhabitant of the temporal realms. He was the covering cherub for all of creation, as though he were an intelligent membrane between organs with differing functions. He joined part to part while monitoring correlations in the interests of order, and while establishing communication between autonomous operations of components, realm to realm. The covering cherub for all of creation was the interface between the creator and all that came to be. He held occupancy in all realms, but no realm could claim him as occupant. It’s said that the iniquity found in him was error; and because usage establishes a word’s conventional meanings for society, so that we can at least try to understand one another, I must accept that it is so. However, I’ve written a great many words explaining the reasons I don’t   think that it’s strictly so!
