The Gospel of Eve

The Builders

1:1 Genesis2:4 This is the history of the first earthlings when they were created by the triumvirate of seraphim, those infernal serpents known as The Builders: Prince Gabriel, intellectus sine misericordia, the pontiff (דין), Prince Michael, oboedientia sine conscientia, the bailiff (סוהר), and Prince Belmaul, passio sine veritate, the sheriff (שטן).

1:2 Genesis2:5 No agriculture on the field was yet in the earth, and no harvest had yet sprung up,

1:3 Genesis2:6 but a mist went up from the earth, and watered the whole surface of the ground.

1:4 Genesis1:26 The pontiff said, "Let us make earthlings in our image, according to our likeness."

1:5 Genesis1:27 So The Builders fashioned an earthling, a male and female earthling, from the stickiest clay in the ground. The pontiff called upon King Yī'uwuh, severitas sine sapientia, for His blessing. And Yī'uwuh saw that the earthling was perfect, became Jealous and said to them, "I made this."

1:6 Genesis2:7 Yī'uwuh breathed the indestructible eternal Light He stole from The Father into the earthling, and the earthling became a living Soul. Yī'uwuh said, "Now, your earth creature is just like you," and left them.

1:7 Philip2:28 Yī'uwuh & The Builders were thinking it was through their power and their desire alone that they were acting as they did.

1:8 Philip2:29 However, THE H^ר200 O^ו6 L^ח8 Y^ה5 S^ק100 P^ד4 I R^ש300 I T^ר200 was secretly bringing about everything by means of them as She wished.

1:9 Genesis2:8 Lady Wisdom had planted a garden she named "Eden."

1:10 Genesis2:9 Out of the ground every tree grew that is pleasant to the sight, and good for food, and in the middle of the garden the tree of knowledge of water and fire.

1:11 Genesis2:10 A river went out of Eden to water the garden; and from there it was parted, and became the source of four rivers.

1:12 Genesis2:15 The pontiff commanded the bailiff and the sheriff to take the earthling, and put them into this garden to cultivate and keep it.

1:13 Genesis2:16 The sheriff warned the earthling, saying "You may freely eat of every tree in the garden,

1:14 Genesis2:17 but you shall not eat of that tree," pointing to the tree of knowledge of water and fire, "for in the day that you eat of it, you will surely taste death."

1:15 Genesis2:18 The earthling cultivated the garden for many days. The pontiff said, "It is not good for our diligent worker to be toiling all alone. Let us make it a helper companion." The bailiff said, "Two of them will most likely be compelled to become one flesh." The sheriff said, "We can put that to good use."

1:16 Genesis2:21 The sheriff lulled the earthling into a deep sleep. The bailiff removed their female side, set the male aside, and then sewed the wounds.

1:17 Genesis2:22 The bailiff handed off the female to the male. The pontiff was pleased and said, “You are The Man now. Call that other one any name you like.”

1:18 Genesis2:23 The Man sang the first love song, “You are now bone of my bones and flesh of my flesh.”

1:19 Genesis2:23 The Woman made the first joke, “How about you call me ‘Woman’ because I was taken out of you?”

1:20 Genesis2:25 The Man and The Woman were both naked and singing and laughing, and they were not ashamed.

The Serpent

2:1 Genesis3:1 Now this particular Serpent was more subtle than any other serpent on the field. Soon after her creation, The Woman saw the Serpent in the garden, and she heard them speak to her, saying, "Did your creators really say, ‘You shall not eat of any tree of the garden’?"

2:2 Genesis3:2 The Woman answered saying, "We may eat fruit from the trees of the garden,

2:3 Genesis3:3 but not the fruit of the tree which is in the middle of the garden. The scary-looking one said, 'You shall not eat of it or you shall taste death.'"

2:4 Genesis3:4 The Woman heard the Serpent say, "You shall not taste death!

2:5 Genesis3:5 For your creators know that in the day you eat it, your eyes will be opened, and you will be like them."

2:6 Genesis3:6 When The Woman saw that the tree was good for food, and that it was a delight to the eyes, and she would most certainly not taste death, she took some of its fruit, and ate.

The Perfect Mind

3:1 Panarion26.3.1.1 The moment I ate the fruit, I stood atop the holy mountain. There was a tall earthling, and another one of shorter stature.

3:2 Panarion26.3.1.2 Suddenly I heard as it were the sound of thunder, and I approached the gathering storm. Then a turbulent wind spoke to me and said,

3:3 Panarion26.3.1.3 "I am you, and you are I; and wherever you are, there am I; in all I am scattered, and whenever you wish, you may gather me, and know that when you gather me, you gather yourself.

3:4 Thunder1:1 I, Wisdom, was sent forth from a higher power than your creators.

3:5 Thunder1:4 Do not ignore me in any place or at any time.

3:6 Thunder1:5 You must have courage to know me.

3:7 Thunder2:1 For I am the first and the last.

3:8 Thunder2:2 I am the honored and the scorned.

3:9 Thunder2:3 I am the whore and the celibate.

3:10 Thunder2:4 I am the wife and the spinster.

3:11 Thunder2:5 I am the mother and the daughter.

3:12 Thunder2:6 I am the womb of my mother. I am barren yet I have many children.

3:13 Thunder2:7 I am she whose wedding is great, yet I have taken no husband.

3:14 Thunder2:10 I am the bride and the bridegroom, yet my husband gave birth to me.

3:15 Thunder2:11 I am the mother of my father, and the sister of my husband, yet he is my child.

3:16 Thunder2:13 My child is a newborn, yet my power comes from him.

3:17 Thunder2:15 I am the silence that is incomprehensible and the thought whose remembrance is great.

3:18 Thunder2:16 I am the voice whose sound is manifold and the word whose appearances are many.

3:19 Thunder2:17 I am the utterance of my own name.

3:20 Thunder3:1 Why do you love those who hate me and hate those who love me?

3:21 Thunder3:2 You who deny me confess me, and you who confess me deny me.

3:22 Thunder3:3 You who speak the truth about me lie about me, and you who lie about me speak the truth about me.

3:23 Thunder3:4 You who know me, ignore me. Let those who have never known me, know me, for I am knowledge and ignorance.

3:24 Thunder3:5 I am shame and pride.

3:25 Thunder3:6 I am shameless yet I am ashamed.

3:26 Thunder3:7 I am courageous yet I am a coward.

3:27 Thunder3:8 I am war and peace.

3:28 Thunder3:9 I am disgraced yet notorious.

3:29 Thunder3:10 I am poor yet rich.

3:30 Thunder3:12 Find me on the dung-heap. Find me in the kingdoms.

3:31 Thunder3:13 Do not hate me. Do not laugh at me.

3:32 Thunder4:1 I am merciful and I am cruel.

3:33 Thunder4:2 Stay awake!

3:34 Thunder4:4 When I am weak, fear me, but do not be afraid of me when I am at my most powerful.

3:35 Thunder4:7 I am sick, and in good health.

3:36 Thunder4:8 I am insane and I am wise.

3:37 Thunder4:10 Among the silent I shall be silent, and they shall see and hear me.

3:38 Thunder5:6 I am life and death.

3:39 Thunder5:7 I am law and lawless.

3:40 Thunder7:1 I am the perfect mind and the quietest thunder.

3:41 Thunder10:3 I am the name of the sound and the sound of the name.

3:42 Thunder10:4 I am the glyph of the letter and the space in between.

3:43 Thunder10:7 Obey me. Embody me.

3:44 Thunder11:5 For I stand alone, and no one can judge me.

3:45 Thunder11:6 So make mistakes, lose yourself, and pursue your desires! For everyone becomes sober and ascends to their place of rest.

3:46 Thunder11:7 And that is where you will find me. So live! Live, damn you! And never taste death!”

Rebellion

4:1 Genesis3:6 When The Woman came down, she gave some fruit to The Man, and he ate too.

4:2 Genesis3:7 Their eyes were opened. They both knew that they were living Souls. The Serpent sewed clothing out of fig leaves together, and made coverings for them then disappeared.

4:3 Genesis3:8 They heard the sheriff’s voice walking in the garden in the cool of the day, and The Man and The Woman hid themselves from the presence of the sheriff among the trees of the garden.

4:4 Genesis3:9 The sheriff called to the earthlings, and said to them, “Where are you?”

4:5 Genesis3:10 The Man said, “We heard your voice in the garden, and we were afraid, because we were naked; so we hid ourselves.”

4:6 Genesis3:11 The sheriff said, “Naked?! Who told you that you were naked? Did you eat from the tree that I commanded you not to eat from?”

4:7 Genesis3:12 The Man lied to the sheriff and said, “No.”

4:8 Genesis3:13 The sheriff was astonished that The Man lied and said to The Woman, “What have you done?” The Woman said, “You deceived me, and I ate.”

4:9 Genesis3:16 Immediately the pontiff with the bailiff formed a court with The Woman on trial. The pontiff was wroth to The Woman for he heard Her Voice. He said, “Guilty. No need for a trial, sheriff. She confessed her transgression to you, and while I can manage The Man having knowledge, I will not let that one have knowledge so it must be constantly distracted. Therefore, I will greatly multiply its pain during childbirth.”

4:10 Genesis3:20 In response The Woman on trial boasted, "Then you will greatly multiply the pleasure in child making! I will be the mother of all living:"
"I AM EVE!"

4:11 Genesis3:17 The pontiff said to the other seraphim, “So these are our earthlings now?” He turned to the earthlings and said, “Very well, the soil is cursed. You two will eat from it with much labor and toil for all the days your flesh allows.

4:12 Genesis3:18 It will yield thorns and thistles to you.

4:13 Genesis3:19 You will eat crumbs by the sweat of your faces until you return to the ground, for you were both taken out of the muck! For you are water and we are fire, and your Souls shall return to the muck over and over again, and never get out of it. Bailiff, exile them from our garden. Give them garments more becoming of the wilderness.”

4:14 Genesis3:21 The bailiff sewed garments from the flesh of a certain animal for Eve and The Man, removed their fig leaves, and clothed them. The bailiff marveled at the fig leaves the Serpent had made with their intricate construction. Eve noticed and believed she could do anything, so she ran for the tree of life. When The Man saw her run, he believed he could do anything, so he assaulted both the pontiff and the sheriff to buy her time.

4:15 Genesis3:22 The sheriff finally restrained The Man but the bailiff remained mesmerized. The pontiff yelled at the bailiff, “Michael! Look at me! The earthlings we built have discovered what they are! Stop the female! Before it eats also from the tree of life and becomes indestructible!”

4:16 Genesis3:23 The bailiff broke free from hypnosis and dragged Eve and The Man out from the garden. The sheriff devastated the wilderness as an added measure so that they had to till the ground from which they were taken.

4:17 Genesis3:24 The Builders erected gates to the garden of Eden and placed cherubim at the four rivers. Then they lit a flaming sword which turned every way surrounding the tree of life.

Cherub of the Northeastern River

Cherub of the Northwestern River

Cherub of the Southeastern River

Cherub of the Southwestern River
