Genesis

THE ELOHIYM
             1:1  In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.
             This being the first verse in the Bible is also the first time the word God is used and  a vital key to understanding  the nature of this God that has just created the Earth and the sky.  That key is that this word God is translated from the Hebrew word Elohiym the plural of the word elowahh and is the word used in the vast majority of biblical text.  
 
 THE ARMY OF YHOVAH
             2:1 Thus the heavens and the earth were finished, and all the host of them.
             This verse shows another aspect of the nature of these supreme beings, they have an army.  The word host is taken from 'tsaba', which literally means an army.  This army is spoken of almost 300 times from the creation to Armageddon with the God  Yhovah as its supreme commander.  Although it does function as a fighting army this verse shows that combat is only one of its functions.  See   BEINGS
 
 YHOVAH CLOAKS THE GARDEN       
             3:24  So he drove out the man; and he placed at the east of the garden of Eden Cherubim, and a flaming sword which turned every way, to keep the way of the tree of life.
             The cherubim, which appears to be some sort of device rather than a being, is placed to protect the Tree of life in the garden.  This device or devices is described as flashing and either rotating or having a constant 360 degree range of coverage. The cherubim  are mentioned throughout the Bible many times as having protective properties and performing various tasks.  The Tree of Life by its very existence offers a very interesting insight into the untold side of man as a spiritual being as profiled in the Bible.  Notice God didn't move the Garden, just protected it.  Since we don't see any unknown flashing devices protecting a piece of land in our modern world we can't enter then are we to assume that God cloaked it and it's still there?  Flaming = flashing.

 A DIVINE ABDUCTION
             5:24  And Enoch walked with God: and he was not; for God took him.
             "Enoch walked with God " is a simple statement and seems to mean what it says.  "God took him" is more complicated.  It is the first of several "divine abduction" incidences and shows that God does take on passengers from time to time.   See   BEINGS
             
 THE TOWER OF BABEL            
             11:5  And the Lord came down to see the city and the tower, which the children of men builded.  6  And the Lord said, Behold, the people is one, and they have all one language; and this they begin to do: and now nothing will be restrained from them, which they have imagined to do.  7  Go to, let us go down, and there confound their language, that they may not understand one another's speech.
             This is the first of two attempts mankind makes to get into space, this time by building the Tower of Babel. Man is united by a common language and is trying to build a spire that will reach to the stars, something God finds unacceptable.  Here is the first example of a descending God.  Since the Lord is coming down then the Lord must be up.   Throughout the pages of the Bible God is coming down although here the location of origin is not specified.  And "let us go down" implies that there is a need for some number of entities to accompany him and that it is necessary to physically go to the location.  This is also the first time we see that God must descend to get to the ground as opposed to just appearing or viewing from a remote location.
 
 A GLOWING OBJECT PASSES OVER
              15:17  And it came to pass, that, when the sun went down, and it was dark, behold a smoking furnace, and a burning lamp that passed between those pieces.
             This is the first indication that a glowing flying object is associated with the Elohiym.  The word 'passed' is more properly rendered 'passed over'.  Furnace = fire pot.  Smoking = vapor.  Lamp  = shining.  Burning = fire.  So what is being said is that something resembling a shining vaporous firepot passed over after dark.   See  VEHICLE
 
 BURNING SULPHUR FROM THE SKY           
             19:24  Then the Lord rained upon Sodom and upon Gomorrah brimstone and fire from the Lord out of heaven.
             Yhovah drops fiery substances and objects from the sky as a means of destruction is an act recorded many times in Biblical text.  The word 'brimstone means sulphur or sulphur-like, obviously relating to the burning effect of the substance.  See   TECHNOLOGY 
            
 AN ANGEL CALLS FROM THE SKY
              21:17  And God heard the voice of the lad; and the angel of God called to Hagar out of heaven, and said unto her, What aileth thee, Hagar? fear not; for God hath heard the voice of the lad where he is.
             An angel is calling to Hagar from the sky. See  TECHNOLOGY
 
             22:11  And the angel of the Lord called unto him out of heaven, and said, Abraham, Abraham: and he said, Here am I.
             An angel is calling to Hagar from the sky.  See  TECHNOLOGY
 
             22:15  And the angel of the Lord called unto Abraham out of heaven the second time.
            An angel is calling to Hagar from the sky.  See  TECHNOLOGY
  
 JACOBS LADDER
             28:12   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 God ascending and descending on it. 13  And, behold, the Lord stood above it, and said, I am the Lord God of Abraham thy father, and the God of Isaac: the land whereon thou liest, to thee will I give it, and to thy seed;   
             This is  known as Jacob's Ladder.  Angels are  ascending and descending from the sky. Ladder = staircase.  "on it" was added.  This is the first in which anything is coming and going from the sky.  The god Yhovah is present speaks to Jacob.  'Above it" was added.   See   John               1:51and  TECHNOLOGY
