From the author, Dan Eden
At odds with our evolved nature, dissent from the Universal Truth seems
imposed upon humans by unseen, other-dimensional personalities who use
covenants with humans to effect their beliefs. In the case of Lucifer,
this was brilliantly achieved through the revelations of Yahweh
(Jehovah) to his select, chosen people, who unknowingly (and knowingly)
promote the dissent.
#3 YHWH, Jehovah is NOT God. He was created by God!
In the 1980s, an academic group studied the Old Testament prophets to
determine the nature and origin of their communication with Yah (Yahweh,
Jehovah), their deity. They were especially interested in the Possession Trance State:
"...a condition in which a person is believed to be inhabited by the spirit of a supernatural being... characterized by acting like the inhabitating spirit, lapsing into a coma-like state; speaking unintelligibly, exhibiting physical symptoms such as twitching, wild dancing, frothing at the mouth, and so on. Possession trance may be an individual or a group phenomenon. It may be induced by drugs, music, or other methods external to the individual, or it may be a spontaneous manifestation by the person possessed. It may be a phenomenon restricted to a particular status or role (i.e. diviner, medium or priest) or it may occur at random in the society. In all cases, however, the phenomenon is accepted within the society as a trance induced by a spirit entering the person possessed, and not as an individual psychlogical aberration." [2]
The group was surprised to learn that the Biblical translations from
Hebrew to Greek and English had misinterpreted words such as "prophet"
and "prophecy" when, in fact, they referred to "being in a trance
state." There was no intended reference to prophecy at all.
"YAH talkin' to me?"
The "trance" of YAH was not God-like. It was usually experienced
in a group context, induced by music, and produced grotesque
contortions, a painful expression ("as if one had just learned bad
news." Is. 13:7-8; Hab. 3:16; Ezek. 21:11-12) and, for some reason, the
urge to disrobe.
"Therefore all hands will fall limp,
And every man's heart will melt. They will be terrified,
Pains and anguish will take hold of them;
They will writhe like a woman in labor,
They will look at one another in astonishment,
Their faces aflame." --Isiah 13:7-8
"I heard and my heart pounded,
my lips quivered at the sound;
decay crept into my bones,
and my legs trembled.
Yet I will wait patiently for the day of calamity
to come on the nation invading us." --Habakuk 3:16
"And when they ask you, 'Why are you groaning?' you shall say, 'Because of the news that is coming. Every heart will melt and every hand go limp; every spirit will become faint and every knee become as weak as water.' It is coming! It will surely take place, declares the Sovereign LORD."
--Ezekial 21:11-12
Some have described it as an "animal" state.
EXAMPLE: In 1-Samuel 19:20-23 the new Israeli king, Saul, feels threatened by his chief warrior, David. He decides to kill David and sends messengers on three occasions to locate David and bring him back. Three times, the messengers arrive at David's village and see the nebi'im (people in a trance) and "...the spirit of YAH came upon Saul's messengers, so they too yitnabbe (in a trance)." Finally Saul goes in person, "...and a spirit of YAH came upon him too, so that he continued on his way wayyitnabbe (in a trance)..." until he arrived where David was (verse 23). "...Then he too stripped off his clothes, and he too yitnabbe in Samuel's presence, fell down, lying naked all that day and night..."
The trance is involuntary, replaces the host personality with something unpleasant, and is attributed to YAH.
Here is the same YAH trance, recorded in Isiah 21:3-4:
" At this my limbs writhe in anguish,
I am gripped by pangs like a woman in labour.
I am distraught past hearing, dazed past seeing,
My mind reels, sudden convulsions seize me." (New English Bible)
And once again, this same trance occurs in another group event with Moses:
Numbers 11:16-17 and 24 -- Yah tells Moses to gather seventy men from among Israel's elders, and to have the men stand with him at the tent of meeting. Yah says he will then come down to speak with Moses, and transfer some of Moses's spirit on to the men, so that they can help Moses bear the burden of governing the people: he will not have to manage on his own... "And as the spirit alighted on them, wayyitnabbe, only that one time and never again after..." (verse 25).
The wayyitnabbe translates to what we might today call a "rave" -- a group trance. [see commentary on this word].
It didn't enhance the elders with some special knowledge or abilities,
but the altered state was enough of an amazing experience that it
galvanized their effort. In many ways, the trance was used as a "team
builder." In 1-Samuel 19:24 we see that the YAH trance also serves to
legitimize Saul's office:
"...That is why they came to say: 'Is Saul also wayyitnabe (one who has experienced the trance)?"
Although the trance is attributed to YAH (aka Yahveh, Jehovah), the
tribal deity of Israel, it does not originate from God. In fact, it
couldn't be God. Here's why.
In Israel, man is a physical unity, and God is transcendent and holy. It
is certain death for those who see, touch, or confront him face to
face. Thus, when God comes down to "meet" with his people in early
times, He is hidden by a pillar of clouds and fire. [1] So God could not
do something as intimate as replacing a man's personality by invading
his mind without annihilating man. So what is YAH?
YAH appears to have God-like abilities but in the early Biblical
accounts, YAH has the capacity for anger, vengeance and pride. These
human-like characteristics perhaps suggest the origin and appeal of the
alter personality (and perhaps new signficance to Ephesians 6:12).
"For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms."
Communicating with The Dark Side
This possession by YAH, the Israeli deity, has a dark side. In 1-Samuel 11:6 we read,
"A bad spirit of Yahweh overwhelmed Saul, wayyitnabbe, and [he] threw his spear at David."
Here we can see the old (real) meaning of the Hebrew word wayyitnabbe.
It's not a prophet or prophecy but a trance -- a new personality that
"comes out" in Saul, originating in Yahweh. And it is "bad". There are
many more "bad" references to YAH (1-Sam 28:10; 19:9; 16:14,15,16;
Judges 9:23), including Yahweh's endorsement of deception and lies as a means to an end (1-Kings 22:19-24).
[19] Micaiah continued, "Therefore hear the word of the Yahweh: I saw the Yahweh sitting on his throne with all the multitudes of heaven standing around him on his right and on his left. [20] And the Yahweh said, 'Who will entice Ahab into attacking Ramoth Gilead and going to his death there?' "One suggested this, and another that. [21] Finally, a spirit came forward, stood before Yahweh and said, 'I will entice him.'
[22] " 'By what means?' Yahweh asked.
" 'I will go out and be a deceiving spirit in the mouths of all his prophets,' he said.
" 'You will succeed in enticing him,' said Yahweh. 'Go and do it.'
[23] "So now Yahweh has put a deceiving spirit in the mouths of all these prophets of yours. Yahweh has decreed disaster for you." [24] Then Zedekiah son of Kenaanah went up and slapped Micaiah in the face. "Which way did the spirit from Yahweh go when he went from me to speak to you?" he asked.
This sounds more evil than good.
The YAH possession trance is reminiscent of the mental state experienced
by victims of alien abduction. It's involuntary, immobilizing,
unpleasant and deceptive. Also, during the abduction trance, the aliens
seem to be able to elicit visions from the victim, often described as,
"Like I was watching a film of my life playing in my head."
Regardless of your belief in "aliens", anyone familiar with the reported
cases will immediately recognize this common phenomenon in alleged
abduction debriefing. Even small children have referred to it as "a
movie in my head".
Is this what our personality looks and feels like while it is being
examined, copied or transferred? Recall that the hippocampus, the source
of our personality and identity, is composed of critical historic
memories, decisions and events that have shaped our pattern of reaction
to life [source].
These memories are crucial in establishing the continuity of our identity.
Is this the same trance?
