More than 1000 years, 1066 to be precisely, have gone by before Noah was born. It was a time wherein sons and daughters were born to the offspring of Adom and Chava, or to the tribe of those who believed in G-d as how they had come to learn it. Without doubt that many things will have happened during that period, but seemingly not for the better for humankind as we become informed. Sons of Eden married the daughters from the natural world, the one of before the new Adom, before humankind became more deeply aware of the light within them. They in a way began a process of re-assimilation with their former self so to speak. Their offspring were called the Nephilim due to how people in that time understood things unknown to them, things never seen before. They too came to know the difference between good and wrong for they had learnt it from their fathers. It was thus not surprisingly that their ego kept controlling their nature, their actions still quite adamantly. Not the children's mother became thus the most important personality within the house as those men had begun to regard themselves as being superior to their wives, to their female companion, even to other people, as well as non human forms of life. They came to know only the rule of having power, of having dominion over while the Torah does teach us to share what we have been given with all life around us. It teach us to not enslave, then to set free, to take care of, and something which clearly contradicts the saying of having dominion over from an ego point of view. But the Torah of course wouldn't be the Torah if there wasn't to be a twist attached to the natural element within the Nephilim.

Yes, they were so overwhelmed by the enormous potentials of maximum power it gave them that the knowledge became a tool to be misused for the purpose of their evil inclinations generated by their ego, the temptation of having the edge over another person or tribe, instead of using the enlightened wisdom they begot from the world wherefrom their father, grandfather, even great great grandfather came for the good of all life worldwide so to generate the uplifting of their very own entire lifestyle to the well-being of their people. Sadly, they as a result began to use the choice between good and wrong in correlation with their natural instincts they begot from both parents, a very explosive mixture when the father walked more in line with the steps of Cayin vis-à-vis his brother Havel, and something we did come to learn out of Lamech's (son of Cayin's world) words to his wives in chapter 4. Of course that they had learn their lesson as how it was given to them, but the nature of their personality turned the brightest light into a thick darkness; and every single lesson became a resource to aggravate the evil within instead of letting them gently being guided towards, and brought within the new spiritual evolution the world experienced. Well, at least we could say that they were taught the knowledge that they too could one day make the choice for the better if they would wish so. And something tells us that this could well have been the case, or better said: The Torah twist if we look around us in how humankind evolved since that period of its evolution, namely in giving us all the free choice to join Him into the next world to come, the next huge step forward within the evolution of whom we truly are whether that be Jewish or a gentile.

Still, let us not go running wild all of a sudden because for now we are taught about the natural world of humankind coming to learn, to grasp with what the world of the soul taught them by way of those few who had left the tribe because of their weakness. They had been sent away just like Cayin for they were destroying bit-by-bit what G-d tried to build with the chosen at that time. They didn't die because of their transgression as He had hope. He had an ingenious plan for everything to fall perfectly in place when the time comes in the Seventh Day of His world of creation. Nevertheless, the teaching brought them at the moment no enlightening gains seen from out of their natural way of life vis-à-vis their soul. A Noah flood of information was thrown over them, and they were not ready to absorb it rightly for G-d's word needs to be digested gently as well as above all Chava wisely for it to enlighten, to guide a person into the right direction of purity and real freedom. But the road those sons of the world of the soul, of the tribe of Chava were starting to wander on was one where they began to take matters into their own hands and even, so to speak, made the living conditions worse than before. Yes, they brought the belief in G-d to their entire world's attention. They helped them to direct their steps towards this goal, toward the belief in the G-d of their father beside their many idol gods except for the fact that the intentions became not genuine. The purpose of the action would not serve the better of both worlds. It was bound to destroy everything what could have been. The strategy was there. The vision was in place, but the blindness of the serpent was not cured either. It still controlled every move that would be made for it had its own one-sided agenda. Not an evolution happened, but a revolution occurred within their world. The action taken would eventually result in a disastrous reaction. They had full control over the action, but nothing whatsoever over the reaction to the action. Their only ego goal was to be the leader of the entire then world, a world bowing before them as their god like the word allah stemming from Kabbalah cut in two pieces with the purpose of misleading the people the same way as it happened before in the time of the beginning. They did cut the king Solomon child in two, and threw the other half away with the garbage in defiance of the king's real decision taken within a bath of pure wisdom by body, mind and soul as one single undivided entity, undivided Jewish nation.

The lessons of Adom and Chava had become old in the blinded eyes of the Nephilim. Certain living styles of the world around them were so tempting to them that they could not resist to follow them, to let them become wicked by the wicked. You could compare it with Korah ben Izhar who rebelled against Moshe Rabbeinu because his ego ruled him instead of his Chava, or with people falling for the deities of Philistine, Greece and Rome, even modern day deities. They gradually became thus more a tool of Cayin's way of life instead, not forgetting that Cayin had become a member of this kind of society a long time ago, the first one to rebel against the sanctity of life that came with humankind's evolution. It would of course indicate that Cayin's offspring had by that time already introduced quite a lot of their patriarch's views into the other world so that it to the sons of Chava must have looked as if it was almost theirs, as if there was no difference and thus no danger, except for the fact of some minor differences with major consequences in terms of spiritual strength and consequently behavioral obedience to the cultus practiced, a practice that eventually would lead to the dead of many. It's a bit like modern day Jewry and the problems it faces vis-à-vis interfaith marriages to a certain degree because the other world looks a bit similar to theirs. They too see no dangers in it. But in a certain way can you here already discover a very well known important commandment, namely in not doing unto your neighbor what you yourself wouldn't want to be done unto you. Anyhow, they, like many within Islam, worshipped dead, and so dead will they be given, the same as what they did to their neighbor when they wanted to offer him/her to their god, their deity alah.

Nevertheless, what blinded them even more was for their sisters who also did marry the sons of Cayin's world. Only, many of these men did accustom themselves to their wife's' lifestyle, even faith. Their wife brought them back to life from out of the dead so to speak. And the daughters of that other world were also fair to look on. These women behaved themselves as if they could have been seen as daughters of the new world was it not for the hidden ingredient behind their veil for dark forces ruled their world, forces of dead, of murder literally and figuratively. Cayin had become this world's god, and only sons of the spiritual world would have to take the daughters as their wives so that the faith in the master deity could be kept in existence, as they would offer their pure heart to the god of darkness, sometimes even literally. And so they fell into the same abyss wherein Cayin once fell. Their offspring would become known to humankind as the men of renown. Those men will build themselves cities, the same as what we have come to learn from the offspring of Cayin like with his son Enoch. And without doubt that men from out of those cities did became more religiously orientated towards G-d than before. Anyhow, their self-made gods, human and otherwise, would stay being their master gods instead of the one and only G-d. Thus these men of renown kept themselves strongly attached to the behaviors and practices of their very own ancestral world. They kept themselves entrapped within this self-delusive individualistic and egocentric power so common amongst them, but with only a slightly touch of flavor from the part of the soul this time. Before it was only during the Enoch era of Chava's world that it seemed that both ways of life were going to merge with each other to just that what G-d had hoped for all along. But as said before: It was yet to be too soon. The temptations of the flesh were still too strong, and they fell back quite easily to what they were more accustomed to. They most probably fell into a major internal conflict between good and evil, or good and wrong thus, and eventually chose the latter because they not only knew what to expect from it, then that they as well wouldn't have to fight against the temptations they loved so much. They chose what could be understood as the easy way out option, not recognizing the fact that it in reality would become the most difficult choice made out of the two, as it would at the end become the cause of even much greater problems instead of less. And they will only have themselves to blame for it, and not G-d nor the Torah as neither the people who followed it in its enlightened footsteps.

But the roots of the Nephilim, who had dwelled for so long as rulers within the ancient natural world, became as time passed by quite vague, and they within such a state of the mind began to lose every connection they still had with the world of Chava. Of course, genetically spoken is this not really that strange as every newborn child is carried by the natural mother which means that a child is always more connected to its mother than to its father due to a very strong internal maternal bond of about nine months. The same goes for when we refer it to the daughters of the world of Chava who married the sons of nature. The children of both worlds, no matter their fathers influences, had a very strong bond with their mothers. And that explains for a great deal in why that it always will be a son born only out of a daughter of Adom and Chava who would herald a new era in that world. It was also to be a daughter who herself will have been born within a house that kept the lifestyle of the new Adom alive, who kept the world of the soul alive as how it was transmitted to them to do so. In such a household is it a man's wife and not the husband who would become the person who was to be the parental guide, the priestess of the house if we could say so, the mother of all life. Nevertheless, the birth of such a new era heralded also the beginning of an even higher commitment to the purpose of why we keep believing in this concept with regard to our Chava and above all in the one and only G-d. People had faith. They believed in a better world. It was their hope that one day it would all reveal itself as how it has and will always be from then on everlasting; the day where everyone would become ready to absorb the only wisdom that matters to end all times, and to enter the infinity instead of keeping ourselves imprisoned/entrapped within the finite circle of our present way of life, of Cayin's vision. It's therefore our task, the task of every generation to enlighten us with Havel's choice for it will heal the broken strain of heritage, as he would have been the chosen one. This is what in a certain way also does tell us the story about Avraham who wanted to offer his son Yitchak, Yishmael being the image of Cayin in this. G-d saves Yitchak so that history won't be repeated again, so that the encirclement be breached, and we really can move on into the infinite, into the next world, into the world beyond all times.

The manner of parental guidance was not to be the same within the natural world where it became the custom that men were to rule above women, and where it was thus not the source of all life who became the parental guide tho that there is nothing whatsoever written within the Torah, nor is it so between the lines, about a woman being inferior to a man. They are both an adom, and they are therefore both equal as a natural human being; and even completely equal as a soul of light. It's therefore neither wrong to assume that some daughters of the Chava tribe will also have fallen victim to the customs of their natural world neighbor while only a few succeeded in teaching their husband the importance of their belief, their faith, and it all for the well-being of the entire house, for their and their children's future, as well as for all life. We could in that perspective thus say that a man of nature converted and became a member of Chava's world. And out of such a bond came into being a perfect match that would give birth to a son of a new era within that same world so that its existence would not end and humankind be always given the freedom of choice to better the world step-by-step till the moment suprème. We therefore, and because of the Enoch's Chava era, may also conclude that some daughters of Chava were still very strongly attached to their parental home, but not that strong enough anymore for them to succeed in switching the balance over to the good within all of humankind; or to bring it at least in a more balanced state of enlightened wisdom. For sure that it will have heralded a glorious period of revelations. And it will without doubt have resulted in more and more people becoming a member of the new world, but the achievement at the end will only be minimal because the majority living in proximity to the world of Chava will cease to exist. Nevertheless, HaShem saw it all as a major achievement because, how minimal it may have been, humankind finally did made progress. They succeeded in uplifting their mind of thinking, and thus also the state of the body wherein the soul lives so to enlighten a person's mind for it's the mind that needs healing most, not the body, and certainly not the soul ever as it listens only to one Master. It's blasphemy to call even one single soul evil for it tarnish G-d's integrity completely! Other faiths are thus warned!

As such do we come to G-d's statement whereas He said: 'My spirit shall not abide in man for ever, for that he also is flesh; therefore shall his days be a hundred and twenty years.' His days shall not be 800 or 900 years anymore, but 120 years. It also means that we are not only just flesh! And that humankind had evolved in such a way that one single era will not last that long anymore, that evolution will go much faster from now on. So after the Noah Era will a new one gradually and eventually begin as good as instantly with the birth of a new son within the same house of the parents of the previous era, meaning that G-d puts the path open towards a more clear cut direct line of heritage from father upon son, but only the one He finds most capable of fulfilling the enlightening task of bringing all of humankind, of all life, closer to home, closer to whom we truly are, and what this entails with regard to our existence within a next world. Therefore will it be so that people after the Noah era will become more and more aware of their soul which will result in that they will come to understand the path of real spirituality much better. It's a future prospective, a prophecy if you want, that will become a reality within the time of Avraham, but with a twist between nature (body) and soul, as we will come to learn from Sarah, only soul mate of Avraham. A new era will follow the previous one instead of having two or more evolutionary era's living for quite some time next to one another, perhaps even competing too much for it to stay over time a healthy course of action. It could well have given rise to the fall of those men who became called the Nephilim as well as the cause of widespread misuse of the knowledge of His wisdom for purposes that won't serve the betterment of all life, something we will learn from Cham, the brother of Shem. However, the novelty at this particular moment will also give us at the same time a deeper revelation of why it is that G-d went for a certain line of heritage in relation to the future installment of His covenant with Moshe as well as Am Yisrael.

Thus even when it can seem that HaShem is punishing humankind, He in reality is advancing us on a somewhat faster track, or rather to let us enter a next level, bringing us to a greater awareness/knowledge that in due time will give us the room, the key of the door that will reveal a new major evolution, a perfect match between nature and soul with a new adom as a result out of this bond. We therefore may assume that He saw high hopes within the line of the Chava world all the way until the era of Noah. The evolution within the world of the soul had grown tremendously well while it within the one of nature, with the exception of a slight upheaval in time, went completely wrong, as it became heavily corrupt to such an extend whereas He saw no possible outcome, no remedy anymore that could cure the extremely grave illness because they fiercely and 'freely' refused to take the medicine. The fittest of nature became the weak while the weakest of nature would become the strongest. True, not the fittest survived, but those who were regarded as weak eventually did when we look at it from out of a natural point of view. Yeah, violence was all over the earth. Cities fought with cities, and corruption thrived. The living styles of the men of thousands of years before the world of Chava have out of wickedness, of egocentric behavior been thrown into a revolution instead of evolution, especially with regard to their belief, the way they saw it. It turned their whole world so extremely upside down, so extensively that it became lost, overwhelmed as they were with a knowledge that hadn't entered their way of life gently, but with a bang whereby the impact upon this planet Earth of even a giant meteor is nothing compared to the cataclysm that came to their living styles out of such a force. Still, we have to assume that it had a purpose, that there was some deeper essence of wisdom involved because is it not as such that survival is only put away for the fittest? Is the faster evolution into a new era not the key therefore, having the edge, the advantage over the other, the one who will without doubt misuse G-d's wisdom, as we will come to notice within the life of personalities like Cham, but also Esav, and even the tribe of Yishmael till this very day?

However, at the time it was to be no wonder thus that many fell even deeper into the abyss before the flood. Still, one house was more than strong enough to withstand the flood of violence verbally and physically that flooded the region at that moment in history by at least keeping themselves with dry feet. That house will be known as the era of Noah, as it was the one that found grace in the eyes of HaShem. From the first leader of the house till the second one were all members of it righteous and wholehearted. They kept walking with G-d against all odds when realizing what was happening all around them and what will happen, even to their brothers and sisters. Anyhow, sons and daughters were born into that special house of love and light, and one day a righteous son from the natural world married a daughter of the house. She bore him three sons, namely Shem, Cham and Japheth. But before we arrive at that stage it has to be said that the leader/patriarch of the house of Noah was given his G-d's guidance to save them all from being washed away out of existence. He had to start building an ark while his sons and daughters, even sons- and daughters-in-law will follow into his footsteps till the time will arrive for that what HaShem warned him that would happen. His sons will marry daughters of the other houses of the Chava world, even righteous ones from the other world, but they will not leave the house of Noah. The people around them had become wicked beyond repair. It was useless to try, a waste of most precious time. The blindness of power had become too cancerous, a deadly stain within the history of humankind, one to learn from for it to be not repeated, even when it did with Sodom and Gomorrah.

We may thus assume that it was the second Noah and his family together with all those of the house who entered the ark with all the animals in the way He had taught them all this time. It makes the success of the endeavor also easier to understand, as it made a house stronger due to them having to work together as a well-oiled team against the tide of the time. The bond between the members of the team became stronger and stronger, and so would eventually become the evolution of comprehending the working of the soul a matter of tens of years instead of hundreds. But the flesh would still be there, as we will come to learn later on. The bond between nature and soul became only stronger, tho not yet a strong unifying bond needed between nature, mind and soul. There was still no umpire between both of them. It was good or wrong. It was nature or soul. It was yes or no in a way of speaking. It was black or white. There was no gray zone, no concept of living a balanced life yet, meaning finding the perfect equilibrium between body, mind and soul for it to generate the force needed to let the blind see again. The mind had still its very own mind about things. There wasn't yet the tangible uplifting, a most important element for a person to uplift himself into a spiritual personality with a deep rooted character of wisdom, of vision. Only the foundation had been put in place for the building of a strong house, a house that could and will withstand any storm, earthquake and flood over time to come.

So as for now did Noah only everything according to all that what G-d commanded him to do and to prepare. And that's it seemingly. He began with the preparation, and a blueprint of how the ark will have to be build became drawn so that his great great great grandchildren could finish the work he once had begun; that G-d's word, His Torah would not be lost, but saved beyond the beyond of the encirclement wherein humankind had put itself into. When thus the time arrived, and a perfect match for a new era came into being, only a few finishing touches were still needed, and the garnering of all the animals and food within the ark would become the highest priority. In his time, the time of the patriarch of the house himself, was such a project one that no man had ever done before. It for sure would take years to finish. Nevertheless, the main reason, the lesson that came with it would at the end make it all worthwhile. It would give humankind the opportunity of a fresh start because the conjoining of nature and soul became a fact within the era of Noah. No survivor will ever be the same again after this huge ordeal, even when they would try to return to what once was, even when they would start to become a people who don't belief in any god anymore, not even G-d. Noahide laws will enter the stage for all of humankind, as we don't yet speak of the laws of Moshe, the laws only meant for the people of the Priests, or more precisely the house of Dovid Hamelech, of Am Yisrael. The Noahide covenant with the gentile world would become a fact first of all, the pure basics for living a proper human life. It are laws that will stick like glue onto every person's heart, even the unbeliever, as one element of nature is self-preservation, and the nature of a human being can't survive when turning its back on these laws, something that will be proven by the flood of thoughts, by the ark of the heart so that Chava could save the entire house of Noah, and subsequently all of humankind, even all life!

But the question that many are probably still be wondering about is this one, namely did the flood really happened, or was it something that was copied from another time and people within the surrounding vicinity?

Well, what about the fact that every story told about the flood is just the one and the same flood that must have happened somewhere around the year 2095 BCE based on a western religious time calendar, which means thus somewhere around the year 1666 of the Hebrew calendar?

After all, it's only after that time that humankind truly started to make real progress within many domains we even today are very familiar with. Think about it for a moment when you find the time to let your soul become the mother of all life and not your nature! And than let your mind do the talking, even your body. Some surprise will surely be forthcoming without doubt when doing it right.
