Book of Jehovih\u00a0<\/strong>Chapters 1, 2, and 3<\/p>\n

CHAPTER I.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

1. A<\/span>LL <\/span>was. A<\/span>LL <\/span>is. A<\/span>LL <\/span>ever shall be. The A<\/span>LL <\/span>spake, and M<\/span>OTION <\/span>was, and is, and ever
\nshall be; and, being positive, was called He and Him. The A<\/span>LL <\/span>M<\/span>OTION <\/span>was His speech.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

2. He said, I A<\/span>M<\/span>! And He comprehended all things, the seen and the unseen. Nor is there
\naught in all the universe but what is part of Him.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

3. He said, I am the soul of all; and the all that is seen is of My person and My body.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

4. By virtue of My presence all things are. By virtue of My presence is life. By virtue of
\nMy presence are the living brought forth into life. I am the Q<\/span>UICKENER<\/span>, <\/span>the M<\/span>OVER<\/span>, <\/span>the
\nC<\/span>REATOR<\/span>, <\/span>the D<\/span>ESTROYER<\/span>. <\/span>I am F<\/span>IRST <\/span>and L<\/span>AST<\/span>.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

5. Of two apparent entities am I, nevertheless I <\/span>AM BUT <\/span>O<\/span>NE<\/span>. <\/span>These entities are the
\nU<\/span>NSEEN<\/span>, <\/span>which is P<\/span>OTENT<\/span>, and the S<\/span>EEN<\/span>, <\/span>which is of itself I<\/span>MPOTENT<\/span>, <\/span>and called
\nC<\/span>ORPOR<\/span>.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

6. With these two entities, in likeness thereby of Myself, made I all the living; for as the
\nlife is the potent part, so is the corporeal part the impotent part.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

7. Chief over all that live on the earth I made Man; male and female made I them.
\nAnd that man might distinguish Me, I commanded him to give Me a name; by virtue
\nof my presence commanded I him. And man named Me not after anything in heaven
\nor on the earth. In obedience to My will named he Me after the sounds the wind
\nuttereth, and he said E – O – Ih ! Which is now pronounced Jehovih, and is written thus:
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

CHAPTER II.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

1. Jehovih said: By virtue of My presence created I the seen and the unseen worlds. And I
\ncommanded man to name them; and man called the seen worlds Corpor, and the unseen
\nworlds Es; and the inhabitants of Corpor, man called corporeans. But the inhabitants
\nof Es he called sometimes es’eans and sometimes spirits, and sometimes angels.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

2. Jehovih said: I created the earth, and fashioned it, and placed it in the firmament; and
\nby My presence brought man forth a living being. A corporeal body gave I him that he
\nmight learn corporeal things; and death I made that he might rise in the firmament and
\ninherit My etherean worlds.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

3. To es I gave dominion over corpor; with es I filled all place in the firmament. But<\/span>
\ncorpor I made into earths and moons and stars and suns; beyond number made I them,
\nand I caused them to float in the places I allotted to them.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

4. Es I divided into two parts, and I commanded man to name them, and he called one
\netherea and the other atmospherea. These are the three kinds of worlds I created; but I
\ngave different densities to atmospherean worlds, and different densities to the etherean
\nworlds.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

5. For the substance of My etherean worlds I created Ethe, the M<\/span>OST <\/span>R<\/span>ARIFIED<\/span>. <\/span>Out of
\nethe made I them. And I made ethe the most subtle of all created things, and gave to it
\npower and place, not only by itself, but also power to penetrate and exist within all things,
\neven in the midst of the corporeal worlds. And to ethe gave I dominion over both
\natmospherea and corpor.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

6. In the A<\/span>LL <\/span>H<\/span>IGHEST <\/span>places created I the etherean worlds, and I fashioned them of all
\nshapes and sizes, similar to My corporeal worlds. But I made the etherean worlds
\ninhabitable both within and without, with entrances and exits, in arches and curves,
\nthousands of miles high and wide, and overruled I them with A<\/span>LL <\/span>P<\/span>ERFECT <\/span>mechanism;
\nand in colors and movable chasms and mountains in endless change and brilliancy. To
\nthem I gave motions, and orbits and courses of their own; independent made I them, and
\nabove all other worlds in potency and majesty.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

7. Neither created I one etherean world like another in size or density or in component
\nparts, but everyone differing from another, and with a glory matchless each in its way.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

8. Atmospherean worlds I also created in the firmament, and I gave them places and
\norbits and courses for themselves. But atmospherean worlds I created shapeless and void
\nof fixed form, for they are in process of condensation or dissolution, being intermediate in
\ncondition betwixt My etherean and My corporeal worlds. Of three degrees of density
\ncreated I them, and I commanded man to name them, and one he called A’ji, and one
\nJi’ay, and one Nebulae.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

9. But all of them are composed of the same substances, being like the earth, but rarified.
\nNor is there on the earth or in it one thing, even iron, or lead, or gold, or water, or oil, or
\nstones, but the same things are in My atmospherean worlds. As I have given light to the
\nearth so have I given light to many of them; and all such have I commanded man to call
\ncomets. And even so named he them.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

10. And I also created atmospherea around about my corporeal worlds; together made I
\nthem.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

CHAPTER III.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

1. Thus spake Jehovih; by the light of kosmon proclaimed He these things amongst the
\nnations of the earth.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

2. Man looked upward in prayer, desiring to know the manner of all created things, both
\non earth and in heaven. And Jehovih answered him, saying:
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

3. The whirlwind made I as a sign to man of the manner of my created worlds. As thou
\nbeholdest the power of the whirlwind gathering up the dust of the earth and driving it
\ntogether, know that even so do I bring together the a’ji and ji’ay and nebulae in the
\nfirmament of heaven; by the power of the whirlwind create I the corporeal suns and
\nmoons and stars. And I commanded man to name the whirlwinds in the etherean<\/span>
\nfirmament, and he called them vortices and wark; according to their shape called he them.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

4. By the power of rotation, swift driving forth in the extreme parts, condense I the
\natmospherean worlds that float in the firmament; and these become My corporeal worlds.
\nIn the midst of the vortices made I them, and by the power of the vortices I turn them on
\ntheir axes and carry them in the orbits I allotted to them. Wider than to the moons of a
\nplanet have I created the vortices, and they carry the moons also.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

5. Around about some of My corporeal worlds have I given nebulous belts and rings, that
\nman might comprehend the rotation of My vortexan worlds.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

6. For each and every corporeal world created I a vortex first, and by its rotation and by
\nthe places in the firmament whither it traveleth, caused I the vortex to conceive the
\ncorporeal world.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

7. A great vortex created I for the sun, and, within this vortex and subject to it, made I the
\nvortices of many of the corporeal worlds. The sun vortex I caused to rotate, and I gave it
\npower to carry other vortices within it. According to their density and position are they
\nthus carried forth and around about the sun.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

8. Think not, O man, that I created the sky a barren waste, and void of use. Even as man
\nin the corporeal form is adapted to the corporeal earth, so is he in the spiritual form
\nadapted to My etherean worlds. Three great estates have I bestowed on man: the
\ncorporeal, the atmospherean, and the etherean.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
