Genesis 10:10

Hebrew רֵאשִׁ֤ית מַמְלַכְתּוֹ֙, reshith mamlaktow. Head (or beginning) of his reign. This phrase is the same as found in Jeremiah 49:34, “in the head [beginning] of the reign of Zedekiah”. Resith (Strong’s #7225), meaning head or summit is an objective standard of Biblical time and not merely space. Hence the traditional in the beginning [be-reshith] elohim has cut out the Dual-Heavens and the Earth.

Nimrod, Babylon, and the West

Babel (Babylon) is a consummation of places and building over time. Recall the time paradox of how the beginning is the end. This is the chief end, the summit, of Nimrod’s (Christ’s) Kingdom, which he did not build, Long enduring, Fortified. From that Earth has gone out Asshur. Asshur’s (Christ’s) city is the counterpart to Nimrod’s. She is a new City, enlarged, Vigor, Bridling the horse (James 3:2-3), just as Jesus left his disciples, the Earth, the Flesh, “to go and prepare a place” (John 14:3).

If time, like the earth, is circular, westward movement toward the sunset is progress toward the east, the end and beginning again. Eden is not a “place” but a direction or aim, and hence from the east is the same as saying from the end-beginning, or to put it in more western terms, from eternity. Eternal is the same as saying he is or I amwhich translates into no beginning or end. I am = has been + coming. Like electricity flowing through a closed circuit, elohim’s presence is everywhere in the circuit of time, from power source to power source.

“And he is in front of the whole, and in himself the whole has held together.” Colossians 1:17 literal

“For from himself and through himself and into himself is the whole. To himself is the glory into the ages, amen.” Romans 11:36 literal

Paul in Romans 11:36 aptly describes a two-hot-one cycle—from the head, through the head, and back to the head. The full cycle, a Hot-one, is described by Peter (2 Pet. 3:8) as being as a thousand duplications, or aleph in Hebrew, the first letter of the Hebrew alphabet. From aleph to aleph = one thousand. From the removal of Christ’s rib are three days.

“He is reviving us from [the end of] dual-days [miyomayim]; in the Third Hot-one he is causing us to stand-up, and we are living to his faces.” (Hosea 6:2 literal).

Miyomayim is a rare dual-plural form of “days” as in a pair of days. The Third Hot-one is the standing-up [resurrection]. As Nineveh is a city built that spans three days, we learn that she, the Great City, is a type of Eve and Nimrod foreshadows Christ, the mighty warrior to the faces of Yahweh. Take note of how Nimrod is born into Cush, the Ransom, the Earth of Two-Rivers (v.8) and then later goes out from that Earth (v.11). “And if I go and prepare a place for you…where I am, there you may be also.” (John 14:3)

East more concretely means in front (Strong’s #6924, qedem) and is used in the sense of time and our relationship to it as observed in Psalm 139:5 “you have hedged me in behind and in front [qedem]”, Proverbs 8:22-23, “Yahweh possessed me at the head of his Way, the front [qedem] of his works from that time [me’az #227]. From the Age I was poured out, from the head [summit, end], from the front [qedem] of Earth.” Recall that elohim’s time cycle goes in reverse of ours. Our thinking as it relates to elohim’s is backwards. From these clues we can deduce that Nimrod’s Babylon is a “place” or better, a direction to the very front, “eastward”, the head of elohim’s work, that is, at the end-time. Babylon is a product of the Present.
