Understanding Scripture in Light of a Jewish Timeline

Spiritual Dimensions

So far, we have talked about the eleven dimensions in general, those which define our existence here on the Earth, and those related to time. Now let’s look at the next four dimensions that are related to the spiritual realm.

Dimension       Defined                                                         Spiritual Significance
8                          Multiple Worlds with Different Physics            Eden / Paradise
9                          Can go from one timeline on one world to     Angelic Realm
                             another timeline on a parallel world.
10                        All possible infinities of all possible worlds     God’s Council and Special Angels
                             accessing past, present, and future of
                             each simultaneously.
11                        Contains all subatomic particles from all         God
                             dimensions of all parallel worlds.

The eighth dimension is the first dimension which includes worlds that may be different from our own in many different ways. For example, rather than life being carbon based, perhaps it is silicone based, or maybe other species are the dominant species of a world, or any other type of physics that you can imagine. From a spiritual perspective, the different physics may be the spiritual elements we may experience. This dimension may represent Eden, or Paradise, which will be composed of the souls of the righteous who Christ brought from the seventh dimension after this resurrection and then those who go there automatically since that time: We are confident, I say, and would prefer to be away from the body and at home with the Lord (2Co 5:8). This dimension would also encompass many things that God’s creativity has made for those here to enjoy.

The Bible mentions the Garden of Eden. Either this was a copy of Eden made on Earth for Adam and Eve, or Adam and Eve were temporarily in this Garden within the eighth dimension. This is the position I took for my book Rebellion in the Stones of Fire. There are several reasons for taking this position. One, if the Garden of Eden was on Earth, it would mean that the Tree of Life was transferred from the eighth dimension to the fourth dimension. While possible, it would seem more logical to transfer Adam and Eve rather than the entire garden. Yet, we know that with God all things are possible. Second, there is a verse (Gn 2:5) that states the Earth was not yet lush, but then it transitions to a lush garden planted in Eden. It would seem this to be a different place, perhaps a different dimension due to its lushness, or God made a lush garden east of an earthly place called Eden which was apparently itself not lush. After the rebellion, Eden does not seem to exist on Earth and neither does the garden. It may be that the garden was created in Eden, the eighth dimension, and when they rebelled, Adam and Eve were transferred to the fourth dimension where time would direct their future.

The Bible tells us that Adam and Eve were deceived by Satan. How did he do this? When created, both Adam and Eve were naked, but they felt no shame (Gn 2:25). Yet, after they rebelled, they realized they were naked and did feel shame (Gn 3:7). So, what happened? It is thought that they were covered with a layer of light (Light: aleph, vav, resh: אור). After their rebellion, God made for them a clothing of animal skin (Skin: ahyin, vav, resh: עור). While both words ‘light’ and ‘skin’ are spelled differently, the first letter of each word is silent, so they are pronounced the same. Aleph means “strong, power, leader.” Ahyin means “see, watch, know.” Satan told them they would know what God knew. God knew they were naked, but due to God’s leadership, their nakedness was not a hindrance in knowing him because they had no shame. Yet when they disobeyed, the light was gone and they now ‘knew’ their nakedness, which God already knew. But now, having this knowledge led them to shame of their nakedness. They now felt vulnerable. They could not do anything about their condition. God provided them animal skins as a covering but now, their nakedness, their vulnerability, would always be a barrier to their closeness to each other and to God.

What was the rebellion? Adam and Eve had a choice. They went from following what they knew (God as their powerful leader) to following what they could only see (what Satan told them). They went from what they could know to what they could experience with their eyes; disobedience severed their intimate connection. God’s light no longer shown through them. Therefore, God allowed Adam to yield his kingdom to Satan rather than to him. Adam and Eve were placed in the 4th dimension where Satan had been banished. Adam’s theocratic kingdom which God was preparing him for was ceded to Satan. This is the reason we are condemned because we are born into Satan’s kingdom (Jn 3:17). Adam and Eve were removed from the Tree of Life (8th dimension) which sustained them. Over time, their perfection yielded to corruption (in 4th dimension). But God was merciful; they were placed in time. Time has an end.

The ninth dimension characterizes the ability to go from one dimension to another at any given timeline from either dimension. This seems to also be the characteristic of the angelic dimension. As angels are God’s messengers, they can travel to any dimension below theirs and go to any timeline on Earth they are instructed to go.

The tenth dimension allows all possible infinities of all possible universes. Here, the past, present, and future are known simultaneously. This seems to be similar to the working of God’s council and his special angels (cherubim and seraphim). This was also where Lucifer (who became God’s Adversary, Satan) originally dwelt. Cherubim, seraphim, and living creatures all dwell within God’s presence. Cherubim sustain God’s throne, and their faces represent his character (Ek 1, 10). Seraphim sing and give glory back to God (Is 6). Living Creatures give God the admiration he deserves (Rv 4). God’s council is composed of those who are also called Elohim (i.e., gods). These are specially created beings who help God rule and oversee all his creation (Ps 82:1; 89:5-7) yet they also worship God (Ne 9:6) as they are subservient to him (Ps 24:10; Is 44:6). They seem to meet regularly as they oversee the affairs of mankind (Jb 1:6; 1Ki 22:19; Da 4:17).

The eleventh dimension contains all the subatomic particles from all other dimensions. It seems that this is the dimension from which all other dimensions originated. Also, it seems that if positive energy can balance out negative energy, then a universe can appear instantly. This is reminiscent of the 0 dimension from where some scientists believe the Big Bang originated. This would imply that the particles of matter came from the eleventh dimension going through the zero dimension.

From a spiritual point of view, this would be the dimension in which God exists as a single entity, and he is linked to all other dimensions. Only God is linked to the dimension of time – can see past, present, and future simultaneously. God is also linked to all elementary particles. His creative work emanates because he controls all. It is speculated that 10^500 universes exist. If true, this may be the number of decisions people make and yet God knows which one will be enacted upon.

Next time, we’ll go over some of the consequences resulting from our belief in eleven dimensions.
