The Bishops and Pope Gregory at the Council on Nicia spets ages debating what went in and what was left out, cut out or changed.....
So nothing is authentic or unchanged or editid or safe from translation error ....

Hi Antonia!
Your descriptions in this thread are an interpretation of archetypes and an interpreation which is more ancient than the collective editorship of the scribes of the Torah.
The Mesopotamian mythologies of Enki and Elil became mingled with the 'Sons of God' and the Elohim in Genesis and the Gilgamesh.
So then the Torah became a 'retelling' of the 'cosmic war' between 'brothers'.
Edward's thread is highly appropriate and the comments of whitecrow are truly excellent.
And again, Edward and whitecrow and you have discerned the great difference between the Torah 'God' of vengenance, control and jealousy and the 'God' of the 'true' Jesus.
There is a 'fake' Jesus and this 'false one' is the one 'worshipped' in the dogmatic denominations of Christianity.
There is a 'master handbook' of the 'true ' Jesus and that is the Gospel of Thomas or GoT.
A related Nag Hammadi document, written in convoluted encodings, but retelling again the 'Story of the False God Jehovah as Yaldabaoth' is the 'Secret Book of John'.
An understanding of the GoT will allow anyone who reads this 'book' to appreciate the 'bible' and similar ancient scrolls as the 'story telling of archetypes' and NOT as a historically accurate work of literacy.
The 'Word of God' then becomes the Logos (John.1.1) and as expressed MOST potentently in the GoT.
Peace of Mind be with you all.
