I see this backwards mysticism all over the place. Christian theology based heavily on the platonist notions that the trinity is Nous, Logos, and then Sophia.
Even Crowley in his Hermetic Qabbala did this. He goes from Crown to masculine wisdom and feminine understanding. A) Kabbalah is a Jewish mystical system not a Western Esoteric fashion statement. Chokmah is feminine. Woman Wisdom is the first formed being. She is the World Soul. I promise you I’m right.
Now, Yehoshua- YHVH IS SALVATION- pointed humanity back in the direction of Godhead within. That style of teaching is Chokmah- Divine Wisdom. He spoke from a place of Binah- Divine Understanding. His entire Helakhah- way of being- alludes to the Divine Feminine found in Chockmah being the Shekhinah Glory permeating ALL of Malkhut.
Hakemah Elaha- it’s an Aramaic phrase that- like all Semitic languages- is incredibly difficult to put in English we can grasp. The wisdom tradition is very specific about the matriarch being what binds us together. Hakemah- is the divine wisdom that forms into the universe we live in. She is the glue. Elaha- is unity. We see God is all there is. To chant Hakemah Elaha is to feel the sense of divine wisdom permeating all of creation. We relax into the womb of divinity.
Now it’s doubtful I will ever attempt to describe what lies beyond Sophia- Chockmah and Logos- Binah (in a Christian sense). Moshe was pretty specific about the infinite unknowable One being beyond our understanding.
The Aramaic word Abwoom- our Father?- opens us up to the Divine Wisdom of the Infinite Unknowable One but it’s paradoxical. Abloom alludes to an ongoing process of creation where feminine and masculine are one. They cease being the base definitions of gender we have and become this sort of co-parent body of isness?
I know that’s not an answer to it’s true meaning. I write as I learn and share that process. Welcome to the perpetual state of becoming. 😂 We simply don’t know what God is no matter how deep into relationship we get. So, let’s close with the Scottish wisdom of Paolo Nutini- “it was in love I was created and in love is how I hope I die.”
