HOW THE DELUSION THAT THE LORD IS JHVH BEGAN |
I don't see a contradiction between the fact that Eve said she had
gotten a man from JHVH and the fact that the Patriarchs did not know
the name JHVH. Eve's delusion was that the LORD was JHVH. She got
that from the serpent. Moshe ben Adam inherited that delusion from
his line of Jewish mothers. What could be more natural. The delusion
had gone into remission at the time of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, but
resurfaced again with Moshe.
Eve's belief that JHVH is the LORD is like an Oedipal complex. Its
remission at the time of the Patriarchs is like the period of
latency. Its re-emergence at the time of Moshe is like puberty, where
the Oedipal complex resurfaces, but this time resolved and integrated
into the social aspect of life. The question is whether the
integration into social life is adequate or psychotic. That is a
matter of personal judgment. I believe that the monstrosities of the
old testament tip the balance scale toward the psychotic. It would be
far better from the spiritual point of view to just uproot the Oedipal
complex altogether and establish a new foundation for the structure of
the psyche. That is the idea of a new testament and covenant.

Of course she did. Where else would she put the salt when she was eating a
boiled egg (as there were no salt sellers or egg cups back then).
Of course, taking that story literally, we were all born of incestuous
ancestors...and also explains why some people can be a bit "ssssnakey" at
times.
