Bere’shiyth (Genesis) 12:1-4:
"Now Yahweh said to Abram, 'Go from your country and your kindred and your father’s house to the land that I will show you. And I will make of you a great nation, and I will bless you and make your name great, so that you will be a blessing. I will bless those who bless you, and him who dishonors you I will curse, and in you all the families of the earth shall be blessed.' So Abram went, as Yahweh had told him, and Lot went with him. Abram was seventy-five years old when he departed from Haran."
This journey symbolizes moving from one state (or dimension) of existence to another, guided by faith in Yahweh’s promises. Abraham’s obedience to Yahweh, despite the unknown, reflects the spiritual path where one ascends beyond the familiar and physical dimensions into higher realms of trust, faith, and spiritual purpose. Abraham’s journey can be viewed as an allegory for moving through dimensions, with Yahweh guiding each step.
Bere’shiyth (Genesis) 22:1-14:
"After these things Elohim tested Abraham and said to him, 'Abraham!' And he said, 'Here I am.' He said, 'Take your son, your only son Isaac, whom you love, and go to the land of Moriah, and offer him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains of which I shall tell you.' So Abraham rose early in the morning, saddled his donkey, and took two of his young men with him, and his son Isaac. And he cut the wood for the burnt offering and arose and went to the place of which Elohim had told him. On the third day Abraham lifted up his eyes and saw the place from afar..." (The passage continues as Abraham, in obedience, prepares to sacrifice Isaac but is stopped by Yahweh, who provides a ram instead.)
It symbolizes the transition into higher realms of spiritual growth and understanding, revealing that Yahweh’s divine plan transcends the physical reality.
Shemoth (Exodus) 3:2-5:
"And the angel of Yahweh appeared to him in a flame of fire out of the midst of a bush. He looked, and behold, the bush was burning, yet it was not consumed. And Moses said, 'I will turn aside to see this great sight, why the bush is not burned.' When Yahweh saw that he turned aside to see, Elohim called to him out of the bush, 'Moses, Moses!' And he said, 'Here I am.' Then he said, 'Do not come near; take your sandals off your feet, for the place on which you are standing is holy ground.'”
This encounter shows that Yahweh’s presence can reach beyond our physical perception, connecting Moses with a divine realm where the natural laws we know no longer apply.
Shemoth (Exodus) 19:9-19:
And Yahweh said to Moses, "Behold, I am coming to you in a thick cloud, that the people may hear when I speak with you, and may also believe you forever."
When Moses told the words of the people to Yahweh, Yahweh said to Moses, "Go to the people and consecrate them today and tomorrow, and let them wash their garments and be ready for the third day. For on the third day Yahweh will come down on Mount Sinai in the sight of all the people."
And you shall set limits for the people all around, saying, 'Take care not to go up into the mountain or touch the edge of it. Whoever touches the mountain shall be put to death. No hand shall touch him, but he shall be stoned or shot; whether beast or man, he shall not live.' When the trumpet sounds a long blast, they shall come up to the mountain."
So Moses went down from the mountain to the people and consecrated the people; and they washed their garments. And he said to the people, "Be ready for the third day; do not go near a woman."
On the morning of the third day there were thunders and lightnings and a thick cloud on the mountain and a very loud trumpet blast, so that all the people in the camp trembled. Then Moses brought the people out of the camp to meet Elohim, and they took their stand at the foot of the mountain.
Now Mount Sinai was wrapped in smoke because Yahweh had descended on it in fire. The smoke of it went up like the smoke of a kiln, and the whole mountain trembled greatly. And as the sound of the trumpet grew louder and louder, Moses spoke, and Elohim answered him in thunder.
This passage from Exodus describes Moses' ascent of Mount Sinai, where he encounters Yahweh's divine presence. The manifestation of thunder, lightning, and a thick cloud symbolizes the awesome power and mystery of Yahweh. This event represents a profound spiritual experience where Moses transcends the physical realm to communicate directly with Yahweh.
The act of Moses ascending the mountain can be interpreted as a metaphor for spiritual elevation, moving from the earthly plane to a higher spiritual dimension. This encounter emphasizes the idea that certain individuals, like Moses, can serve as intermediaries between the human world and the divine realm, bridging the gap between different spiritual dimensions.
Furthermore, this passage illustrates the concept of sacred space - a physical location where the divine presence is particularly manifest, blurring the lines between the physical and spiritual worlds. It underscores the belief that Yahweh, while transcendent, can also be immanent and accessible to those who seek Him with pure hearts and obedience.
Summary of the passage where Moses ascends Mount Sinai and Yahweh’s presence manifests, with thunder, lightning, and a thick cloud on the mountain. Yahweh calls Moses up, symbolizing the spiritual ascent.
Bere’shiyth (Genesis) 28:12-15:
And he dreamed, and behold a ladder set up on the earth, and the top of it reached to heaven: and behold the angels of Elohiym ascending and descending on it.
And, behold, Yahuah stood above it, and said, I am Yahuah Elohai of Avraham your father, and the Elohai of Yitschaq: the land whereon you lie, to you will I give it, and to your seed;
And your seed shall be as the dust of the earth, and you shall spread abroad to the west, and to the east, and to the north, and to the south: and in you and in your seed shall all the families of the earth be blessed.
And, behold, I am with you, and will guard you in all places whither you go, and will bring you again into this land; for I will not leave you, until I have done that which I have spoken to you of.
This vision illustrates the connection between dimensions and Yahweh’s presence in all realms. The ladder symbolizes the pathway between the physical world and the higher spiritual dimensions, demonstrating that Yahweh’s guidance is present in both realms.
Shemoth (Exodus) 25:8-9:
"And let them make me a sanctuary, that I may dwell in their midst. Exactly as I show you concerning the pattern of the tabernacle, and of all its furniture, so you shall make it."
This tabernacle represents more than a physical structure. It is a blueprint that mirrors the spiritual dimensions and Yahweh’s dwelling place. It serves as a meeting point between the physical and spiritual realms, showing how Yahweh’s presence fills all dimensions.
Ivrim (Hebrews) 9:24:
"For Christ has entered, not into holy places made with hands, which are copies of the true things, but into heaven itself, now to appear in the presence of Elohim on our behalf."
Explains that Messiah did not enter a man-made sanctuary, which is merely a copy of the true one. Instead, He entered heaven itself, now appearing in God's presence on our behalf. This verse emphasizes the superiority of Christ's priesthood and sacrifice, contrasting the earthly tabernacle with the heavenly reality it represents.
Chizayon (Revelation) 21:1-3:
"Then I saw a new heaven and a new earth, for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away, and the sea was no more. And I saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from Elohim, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband. And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying, 'Behold, the dwelling place of Elohim is with man. He will dwell with them, and they will be his people, and Elohim himself will be with them as their Elohim.'"
This new creation is a return to the unity of all dimensions, reflecting Yahweh’s eternal plan where all things are made new and exist harmoniously.
Chizayon (Revelation) 4:2-3:
"At once I was in the Spirit, and behold, a throne stood in heaven, with one seated on the throne. And he who sat there had the appearance of jasper and carnelian, and around the throne was a rainbow that had the appearance of an emerald."
It describes John's vision of the heavenly throne room, which can be interpreted as a glimpse into a higher spiritual dimension.
The imagery of the throne and the one seated on it, with appearances likened to precious stones, emphasizes the transcendent nature of this spiritual realm.
