Nugget #18 – Elohim and YHVH
Here we will compare “Elohim” and “YHVH” to each other. They are not opposites nor detached; rather they are THE model of cooperative attributes the Creator has imbued into creation for the purpose of sustaining creation.
“Elohim” is the attribute of power and “forces” that enforce the Creator’s will. Creation is forced into existence similar to a mother giving birth to a child. Out of the unlimited forces and unlimited possibilities that creation could have been configured, the Creator chose a limited number of attributes to carve out only one configuration of creation. Of course we are familiar with creation we inhabit. “Elohim” limited possibilities in accordance to the will of the Creator to this one configuration of creation.
“YHVH” is the attribute of balance, harmony, peace, and integration. It is all about the proper order of things. Think of a company of soldiers. Without each member of the company knowing their proper role and position, the company would be in disarray and ineffective. The soldiers are likened to “Elohim”, and “YHVH” is each soldier in their proper role and place in the team. It gives focus and direction to the team as well as increasing it effectiveness. So too “YHVH” defines our role and place, via intent and desire, that we are to take on.
Ask yourself: In the TNK. What does “YHVH our Elohim” mean? What does “YHVH Elohim” mean?
