CHAPTER EIGHT
QABALLAH
"Qabbalah," sometimes spelled with a "K" or a "C," is a body of Jewish literature which teaches Jewish occultic mysticism: namely magic.
BRIEF HISTORY OF THE ORIGIN OF QABBALAH. Jewish scholars claim their mysticism dates back to sometime before Christ. It developed since the Babylonian Captivity of 580-510 B.C., by those who returned to Jerusalem afterward to rebuild the temple. Those returnees brought with them the "secrets" of the Chaldean "Mystery Schools," which made magical-science into a religion.
The ancient Hebrew religion of Abraam, Isaac, and Jacob is largely unknown to us, except by inference through the five books of Moses who lived 500 years after Abraham. Those five books, the "Pentateuch," tell of a basic religion which recognizes one God who has a special contract (covenant) with one particular group of people: descendants of Eber (Hebrews). The religion which Abraam instituted was centered about the Lamb of Aries, a Zodiac age which began at the time of Abraham's life. We don't know a lot about the practices of that religion, except that it used altars for sacrifices and made offerings for atonement of sins; that being a paradigm of the future event when God would sacrifice His own Son as God's own Lamb.
About 1,500 B.C. Moses presents a more defined body of laws on the tablets of stone and through his five books which delineate many laws in greater detail. Those five books were called simply, "The Law." For the next thousand years after Moses, other prophetic, historical, and poetical writings appeared and were loosely gathered, still under the same generic title, "The Law."
During the 700's B.C. the Assyrians took about 200,000 Israelites captive and purged most of Palestine of the remainder of people from the Houses of Israel and Judah. That was the Assyrian Captivity. Then about 586 B.C. Babylon captured Jerusalem and took 7,000 of the remaining Judahites captive to Babylon; that is called the "Babylonian Captivity."
About 600 BC, Daniel was taken prisoner to Babylon, chosen by Nebuchadnezzar to serve him personally, and sent to school for three years to learn the Aramaic language. This indicates that the language of pre-captivity Israelites and Judahites was certainly NOT Aramaic or its closely related dialect, now called "Hebrew." It was a Phoenician dialect, as spoken by those who fled Palestine from the Assyrians, some settling in Greece and many crossing the Caucasus Mountains to settle Europe. If Daniel & friends already spoke Aramaic or "Hebrew" they wouldn't have needed a three year study program to learn it!
The Babylonian Captivity was a turning point for the Abraamic religion, as the captives combined their Aryan language with Aramaic to make a new dialect which they called "Hebrew," after themselves. Many of their native Indo-European (Phoenician) words were included, so we even see frequent similarities to some English words in the Afro-Asian language of Hebrew.
Following the Captivity, those returning to Jerusalem brought the new Hebrew language back with them, along with exciting occult teachings. Those secret teachings became the Qabbalah. The people of the new religion called themselves "Jews," after the name of the tribe of Juda, but while captive in Babylon many of them had mixed with dark-skinned peoples, with Arameans, Kenites, Edomites and others, badly corrupting the true Judahite bloodline. Those returning to Jerusalem had become a mongrel race. They claimed their new religion was based on the Torah (the Pentateuch), but they "believed that the Torah was not just a Divine text which taught them how to live. They saw it as a cryptogram, a text in which God had hidden many secrets for the pious to discover." (by Rabbi Joseph, the son of Abraham Gikatilla, SHA'ARE ORAH (Gates of Light), transl. By Avi Weinstein, with historical intro by Moshe Idel (Bronfman Library of Jewish Classics; Harper Collins, 1994, p. xiii). In that new light the Qabbalah developed.
THE MAGIC OF NAMES. Although the Qabbalah was founded during the centuries between Babylon and Christ, it would find most development occurring after the ninth century A.D. when the Jews had finally created a Hebrew language text of the Old Testament books. Jewish Masorete Scholars spent several hundred years between the fifth and tenth Centuries creating an Old Testament text in their language with many variances from the ancient Greek Septuagint of 285 B.C.. Incorporated into the Masoretic version would be an unusual and focused attention upon different NAMES for God. The Qabbalist tradition is a religion of magical usage of names of God in order to obtain one's earthly desires.
The book, Gates of Light, referenced above, is a translation of writings done in the thirteenth century by Joseph, a rabbi, son of Abraham Gikatilla. In the translator's introduction, Weinstein says about this material, "Gates of Light is an encyclopaedia of God's names as well as a map which reveals the connections between the words in the Torah and the Names of God."
The Qabbalah designed its secret-wisdom around a pattern of ten spheres (circles with Names in them) which is called the "Sephirot." Incorporated into those spheres are the ten numbers and the twenty-two letters of the Hebrew alphabet. Weinstein says, "aspects of God emanate from an intertwined hierarchy of ten Spheres. . . . The world will only be redeemed when human action is harmonious with the Spheres." Weinstein goes on to say, "The ineffable Name YHVH represents God's core and proves God's unmediated link between His core and the Jewish people. In contrast, the nations of the world have ministers or guardians who are governed by the Divine Name EloHIM, which is derived from and therefore subordinate to YHVH. Thus the nations do not enjoy direct recourse to YHVH." And on the next page of his introduction, Weinstein presents the carrot, the enticement to study Qabbalah, "The one who knows which Name of God to petition for what he wishes is like one who has the proverbial keys to the kingdom."
The Historical Introduction to this book, Gates of Light, is by Moshe Idel, Professor of Jewish Mysticism, Hebrew University, Israel. Professor Idel provides more insight: "Kabbalah mainly referred to the teachings of the ten Sefirot (ten Spheres) which we may define as emanations or attributes of Divinity." In effect, one can credibly speak of two Kabalistic traditions: a linguistic tradition of knowledge of God through the Divine Names, and a theosophical tradition of knowledge of God through the manifestation of His Divine nature in Creation."
Further, in the general introduction to this book, Avi Weinstein goes on to state: "those who want their needs fulfilled by employing the Holy Names should try with all their strength to comprehend the meaning of each Name of God as they are recorded in the Torah, names such as EHYE, YH, YHVH, AdoNaY, EL, ELOH, EloHIM, ShaDaY, TZVAOT. One should be aware that all the names mentioned in the Torah are the keys for anything a person needs in the world."
Thus, the Qabbalah is a form of magical practices, born following the Babylonian Captivity with a new language and new names for God, the chief name in the hierarchical structure being the tetragrammeton: "YHWH."
If that is the highest spiritual form of Judaism, how can we evaluate whether it comes from genuine spiritual understanding of God's Will or not? For Christians, the answer is easy: what did Jesus say about it?
Jesus had NOTHING to say about it! He always called God, "Father," and taught others to do the same. He never gave any hint of magical names or personal names for God. But He did have plenty to say to those who called themselves "Jews" in Jerusalem: see Matthew 23 and John 8, and Revelation 2:9 & 3:9! He chastised them, calling them liars, hypocrites, sons-of-the-Devil, and said they were of the synagogue of Satan. He tried to expose them for the frauds they were, and they killed Him for it.
Today, there are sincere Christian spiritual-seekers who believe the Jews' claims of authenticity, and their claim that Hebrew was the true ancient language of the ancient Hebrews, and that YHWH is the eternally sacred and holy personal name of God. With sincere devotion, these people are creating a religion around the name YHWH, pronounced Yahweh, and seeing themselves as an elite group who keeps Saturday for a Sabbath, and also keeps many of the Jewish festivals. Sadly, good Christians are being duped; the Jewish claims are fraudulent!
In the New Testament, Acts 19:19, we have a story of seven sons of a Jewish chief-priest, who attempted to perform miraculous works, like those of St. Paul, by exorcising an evil spirit from a possessed-man. The sons failed and the incident became widely known, and because of it we read, "many of those who practiced magic brought their books together and burned them in the sight of all. And they counted up the value of them, and it totaled fifty thousand pieces of silver." Get this now: Jewish Qabbalist magicians had just witnessed a dramatic failure of Qabbalistic magic, so they brought their magic-books to a public place and burned them. What a demonstration that must have been! Those books were worth small fortunes; there was no mass-production of books from printing presses - every book was painstakingly copied by a scribe. And they burned them! That was their comment on Qabbalistic magic!
Lest one think the influence of the Qabbalistic secret-wisdoms (magics) are of limited influence in our world today, these very teachings and practices have become secret-cult religions and lodges popular through our own country. I will mention a few which are born from Jewish Qabbalism:
FREEMASONRY
The Blue Lodge Masons, encompassing the first three degrees, are taught that they are seeking the lost name of God. Their rituals are built around this idea. Eventually, at the fourteenth level, they learn the name isn't lost at all, just secret; it is "Jaobulon," and it becomes their chant. Masonic literature identifies the name as being comprised from three names: Jehovah, Baal, & Osiris. Later, at the seventeenth level, they learn the proper name is really "Abbadon," that same king of the demons of the pit of hell mentioned in Rev. 9:11 - "And they had as king over them the angel of the bottomless pit, whose name in Hebrew is Abaddon, but in Greek he has the name Apollyon." Albert Pike, one of the greatest names of Freemasonry, makes the reference: "Another Jewel is necessary for you, and in certain undertakings cannot be dispensed with. It is what is termed the Kabbalistic Pentacle. ... This carries with it the power of commanding the spirits of the elements." (Albert Pike: Morals & Dogma, pp. 786,7) The "pentacle," is an inverted five-pointed star, also called, "Pentagram," "Baphomet," or "Goat of Mendes," the chief symbol and tool of Satanists. Albert Pike said he is primarily a Luciferian.
ROSICRUCIANS
This is another group that closely parallels Freemasonry, centering religious rituals around Egyptian cults of Isis and Osiris.
MORMONS
Mormons share the same identical secret temple rituals as the Freemasons. Joseph Smith was a Mason and an occultist. Astoundingly, above the east entrance to the Salt Lake Temple is the Satanist pentagram embossed in stone; inside are many other Satanist and Qabbalist symbols. Consider whether Jesus would ever condone such secret temple rituals and occult magic practices. Most Mormons know little or nothing about the temple secret practices, but there are books written by ex-Mormons which I would highly recommend. THE GOD MAKERS is by Ed Decker, who was a member of the Melchizedek Priesthood, a Temple Mormon. He exposes the evil of the Satanic cult. THE BURNING OF A STRANGE FIRE is by Barney Fuller who was a Mormon Elder. He tells the complete story of Joseph Smith's theft of a novel, written by one Solomon Spaulding, which Smith then processed into a great fraud under the title BOOK OF MORMON.
NEW AGE
Madame H. P. Blavatsky and later, her devotee Alice A. Bailey (founder of Lucifer Publishing, now Lucis Trust), taught the Qabbalistic science, pointing to the establishment of a new world religion to be based on the mystery religions of ancient Babylon, Egypt, and other pagan nations of the past. Hitler was enthralled with Blavatsky's, The Secret Doctrine. I've read it, myself, and found it fascinating, exciting, very enticing, a dangerous trap! I strongly urge anyone to avoid it.
Nearly all opponents of Christ-centered Christianity have some factors in common; they are based either loosely or closely on the ancient Qabbalah as the ultimate mystery-school-secret-wisdom whose knowledge, in lieu of Christ, shall save man, and promises to satisfy all his earthly desires. They seek a god of material-powers who will guide them to become masters over a one-world government. Ultimately, they probably support the Artificial Intelligence efforts, to lead to a Singularity Event, wherein supercomputers have all knowledge and information of history and all individuals ready at hand, with a result that the system begins to think for itself, solves all problems of Unified Theory and SuperString, and takes control of the World. Such a supercomputer system would then be the god of this world, and beyond control of its promoters. That would be the final and ultimate achievement of base-human-nature during the kingdom of World, and time for God to free His people once again.
Briefly, the history of the Qabbalah can be traced from the Chaldean/Babylonian Mystery Schools of Sixth Century B.C., then to the Jerusalem Temple scene at the time of Christ, then to the Masorete creators of the Hebrew Old Testament, then to the Crusaders who brought the Qabbalistic wisdoms to Europe in the eleventh and twelfth centuries, then to the great-secret Jewish Sanhedrin or Council which manages the world-domination plan, then to the resulting Jewish organization in 1776 of Rothschild's (thru Adam Weishaupt) "Illuminati," then to the Freemasons which the Illuminati developed as their outreach arm, and finally to the many resulting organizations founded by the above groups, such as The Federal Reserve (1913) to control the banking system, the League of Nations, World Federalists, World Goodwill, the Trilateral Commission, the Aspen Institute, Carnegie Institute for International Peace, the Rockefeller Fund, the Club of Rome, the Bohemian Grove, the order of Skull & Bones (of Pres. Bush), the United Nations, the I.M.F., International Bank of Settlements, International Labor Organization, the World Bank, UNESCO, the Council on Foreign Relations, European Monetary Institute, World Wildlife Fund, the new World Trade Organization, World Future Society, and many more which seek to destroy our civilization today.
THE PROTOCOLS
I cannot conclude discussion of Qabbalistic groups without mentioning one publication in particular. This is probably the most honest exposè of the Jews' real agenda. It is called PROTOCOLS of the LEARNED ELDERS of Zion. This booklet is the minutes of a secret meeting of 300 of the worlds most influential and highly initiated Jewish leaders of Freemasonry. The meeting was held in Basle, Switzerland in 1897 A.D., headed by Theodor Herzl, founder of Zionist movement. A copy of the "minutes" was stolen from a man who attended the meeting, by an unnamed woman. A copy of this Protocols was placed in the British Bodleian Museum, August 10, 1906, where it is yet today. In the meeting, these Jews, who run the world from behind the scenes, outlined their methods and goals of world domination, admitting what they had been doing for several centuries already. Henry Ford, Sr., said in an interview published Feb. 17, 1921, "The only statement I care to make about the PROTOCOLS is that they fit in with what is going on. They are sixteen years old, and they have fitted the world situation up to this time. THEY FIT IT NOW." (Protocols intro., p. 8) Their plan is called The Symbolic Snake of Judaism. "These learned men decided by peaceful means to conquer the world for Zion with the slyness of the Symbolic Snake." (PROTOCOLS Intro. p. 8) [PROTOCOLS of the Learned Elders of ZION, transl. from Russian by Victor E. Marsden, Russion Correspondent of "The Morning Post" about 1919, from the copy at the British Museum. Published clandestinely, it is available from several book distributors in the U.S. at this time. It is a 72 page booklet, 5.5" x 8.5".
While I would like to spend pages discussing the PROTOCOLS, it is not the subject of this book, and is but one dramatic piece of evidence exposing the Jews for who they really are, just as Jesus tried to tell us.
The initial plan (Symbolic Snake) was plotted centuries before Christ, but by the time of their meeting in 1897, they must have modified their ideas of "peaceful" method, for in Protocol No. 1, the Elder says, "best results in governing them are attained by violence and terrorization, and not by academic discussions. Every man aims at power, everyone would like to become a dictator if only he could, and rare indeed are the men who would not be willing to sacrifice the welfare of all for the sake of securing their own welfare." (p. 10) Further on, he says, "Great national qualities, like frankness and honesty, are vices in politics, for they bring down rulers from their thrones more effectively and more certainly than the most powerful enemy. Such qualities must be the attributes of the kingdoms of the goyim, but we must in no wise be guided by them. Our right lies in force." (p. 12) And further: "Without an absolute despotism there can be no existence for civilization.. . . Our countersign is-Force and Make-believe. Only force conquers in political affairs, especially if it be concealed in the talents essential to statesmen. Violence must be the principle, and cunning make-believe the rule for governments which do not want to lay down their crowns at the feet of agents of some new power. This evil is the one and only means to attain the end, the good. Therefore we must not stop at bribery, deceit and treachery when they should serve towards the attainment of our end." (p. 13). In Protocol 2, an Elder says, "Through the Press we have gained the power to influence while remaining ourselves in the shade; thanks to the Press we have got the gold in our hands, notwithstanding that we have had to gather it out of oceans of blood and tears." (p.16) Protocol 3 begins with this statement: "Today I may tell you that our goal is now only a few steps off. There remains a small space to cross and the whole long path we have trodden is ready now to close its cycle of the Symbolic Snake, by which we symbolize our people. When this ring closes, all the States of Europe will be locked in its coil as in a powerful vise." (p. 17) [Note that today all Europe is locked into the E.U., and they are beginning to feel the pain.]
The PROTOCOLS continues to outline methods of gaining political power and of controlling the goyim, of promoting want and envy and hatred, of dividing men into rival classes, of directing mobs and revolutions. Page 18 includes this: "The aristocracy, which enjoyed by law the labour of the workers, was interested in seeing that the workers were well fed, healthy and strong. We are interested in just the opposite - in the diminution, the killing out of the goyim. Our power is in the chronic shortness of food and physical weakness of the worker because by all that this implies he is made the slave of our will." [Note that an alarmingly large percentage of America's food supply now comes from third world countries, making us dependent on political and economic circumstances for our survival, which is beyond our own control. The huge Jewish Farms and Food Processing companies provide us with foods so deficient in nutrients that our general health is worse than anytime in history. And the Jewish pharmaceutical companies and Jewish doctors are getting wealthy while killing our people.]
I could go on and on, quoting statements which speak of forming a Super-Government, of depriving the people of their land, of "complete the ruin of the industry of the goyim," and "taking all measure to extirpate from the face of the earth all the educated forces of the goyim," of dictatorship, of corrupting the youth, of destroying the white race through forced race-mixing, of a Masonic coup d'etat, of promoting atheism, of re-educating the universities, of controlling elections, of spreading diseases, and more. On page 30: "To secure this we must have everybody vote without distinction of classes and qualifications, in order to establish an absolute majority, which cannot be got from the educated propertied classes." (p.30) On page 31: "When we introduced into the State organism the poison of Liberalism its whole political complexion underwent a change. States have been seized with a mortal illness - blood poisoning. All that remains is to await the end of their death agony."
There you have an introduction to the high Sanhedrin, the Learned Elders of Zion, the Jews who now control the banking, the manufacturing industries, the wholesale and retail marketing, the judicial system of lawyers and judges, the medical field of scientists, doctors, and pharmaceuticals, the book publishing, newspaper, and television media, and our entire entertainment industry. The only thing hindering faster progress toward their final goal is the right-wing Christian population of the United States, and the fact that Americans still possess guns. Europe has already gone under, gasping its last at this time. I have a friend in Belgium who owns a business, and he calculates that all taxes combined take eighty-seven percent of his gross.
Christian churches teach their own children that those Edomite Jews are God's chosen people! There is no justification for such a lie!
Although the above excerpts from PROTOCOLS are not about the Qabbalah directly, they reveal the political aims of those whose religion is Qabbalah. Qabbalah, with its techniques of using magic words as names for God in order to achieve one's wishes, becomes personally relevant to us today as we see their goals being achieved in world domination and their present design of a new world-religion, which is a worship of all creation: nature worship.
Newt Gingrich's Third Wave promotes this agenda. Mr. Gingrich even wrote the foreword to Alvin & Heidi Toffler's recent book, Creating a New Civilization, which outlines the overthrow of our civilization for their utopian tyranny. Al Gore says, "Nature is God" in promotion of the new earth-worship religion. He is also a close friend and confidant of the Tofflers.
Those liberal notions are popular and prominent through today's civilization, and a new-world order is being founded by such ideas. You now know the motive force behind them.
