Christian Jews who come on the scene in Greece and the Levant about the same time as Parmendides,
created about this time there own theological, metaphysical, assumptions which have certain
implications about which assumptions the Greek scientists and mathematicians should be allowed to
make. Metaphysically Christian Jews believe that the Name of God, YHWH being four letters, like the
Greek Tetragrammation means that God created the World in 4 dimensions of space and time and he
created it out of nothingness, not out of a preexisting set of “forms” or “essences’ like the Platonists
and Parmendides and the Pythagoreans assumed that he had. Because the Book of Genesis was
probably written about this time. Maybe it was written not by Moses in the 11th century but by some
Jewish Prophet Priests or the prophet second Isaiah whose prophecies we study in the four Haf-Torahs
of consolation, ( as compared with the prophets Jeremiah and Micah who wrote the 1st 3 Haf-Torahs of
Admonition around the same time). Normally, these prophecies occur in the YHWH School of
Christianity Bible reading liturgies around the time Saint Joshua (He was the Messiah for all of us
Christian Jews in the 6 or 5 century BC) has his birthday as the type of Christ indwelling all of us. This
is around the time we are looking at him (using Parashat Reieh) on the seventh candle of the Menorah,
as an image and likeness of God All this has been foretold as to go on forever as we are being reborn in
Him together yearly in the YHWH School of Christianity Calendar. Our own Jesus Christ, the last and
final Messiah indwells us on the eighth candle as it is being lite during Hannukah. It indwells us as
Jesus’, Joshua’s, Jeshua’s soul resurrected and redeemed as the One type of Christ of God’s Son Jesus
Christ.

Because of this, we have a record in the Hebrew language describing how and in what terms God
“spoke” light and the world into existence. Did He also speak “darkness” or “nothingness” or the
“void” into existence, as well as light? Yes, we have this studying the Jewish prayers that go before His
Name is sanctified in us through reciting the Shema. “God Borayed (conceived gracefully from a
monadic oneness, for when God is One, His Truth is One) the World out of darkness
(He who knows this waking state of oneness along with God indwelling, ie is a realist knowing things in
the present moment, according to the Mandukya Upanishad explaining the meaning of the word OM,
AUM, verse 9 talking about the letter A, he attains what he or she wants and becomes a foremost
number one a beginning and an end in knowing things)




, and He “Yotzered (conceived in two-fold truth, for when God is Two… and He did have a Son with Him
at this time, His Truth is Two)” formed light,

(He who knows this dream state or sphere of activity of God in our dreams increases the current
knowledge, ie is a prophet, Mandukya Upanishad verse 10 explaining the meaning of the word OM, the
word prophets meditate on contemplatively to help God inside of us create things using its three letters
AUM, talking about what the letter U, means, meditating thusly, he becomes equal to all.)
(
then thinking the teaching “When God is Three His Truth is You, YHWH Christ, we get into thinking
about God inside of us as the balance between realism and idealism, which can occur to us
subconsciously and mentally as this narrow way the narrow road to Heaven that Jesus talked about to
us as being so hard to know, He or She that knows this part of the word OM, AUM to meditate on
becomes a divine place of spiritual absorption in Heaven for our souls, Mandukya Upanishad verse
verse).

Finally, we can know the Trinity indwelling as a Divine Holy Spirit inside of us all, mathematically,
contemplatively, meditatively by thinking about what it means to say, “When God is Four, His Truth is
More, YHWH Christ.


This happened to the writer of the first chapter of the Book of Genesis when He “asehed” made or
turned God’s forms into instantiated creation in the real world that we all live in. The Mandukya
Upanishad speaks about going into this state of “Turiya”, the Fourth in contemplative prayer as a state
of silence which preceeds a state of prophecic, knowledge, it speaks about it as a partless
indescribable mystic experience, a state of grace beyond all conventional experience and dealings, as a
limit of negation of the physical world, as the auspicious, non-negative,non-dual positive state of
Oneness with our God YHWH, experiencing Him as an indwelling Holy Spirit, as our Divine Self in this
sense.
And the Upanishad says in verse 12 that He or She who knows this knows the Self in the Self, and enters
and dwells in the Self through knowing the Self.)
Ref. Mandukya Upanishda with the commentary of Sankaracarya translated by Swami Gambhirananda in
a book on the Mandukya Upanishad, Published by Swami Swananda, Advaita Ashram April 1990

Dr. Karl Popper in his book on Parmenides explains the relationship of the fullness of the continuum to
whether you believe that numbers are “real” or not. Plato did not in the sense of believing that they
existed fundamentally in a real material realm. Parmendides believed that the material realm was real,
but did not believe there was any divisibility, and hence any real numbers in it. Aristotle did believe that
numbers are real in the sense that if you consider an extra cause of motion, material, instrumental,
essential, purposeful in the continuum. They are real. The Pythagoreans did believe that numbers are
real, but did not understand how irrational numbers could fit into a logical and hence mathematical
scheme of geometric reality.

The upshot of all of this, is that if you want to have philosophy of mathematics you have to decide
whether you want to start off creating the World out of nothing, or out of something material and
essential. We Christian Jews if we want to be philosophers of mathematics have to try and understand
how we can define integer numbers, the number one and its successors, possibly including infinity as a
real number, given that we already believe that the World was created out of nothing and that our One
Most Omnipresent and Highest Omniscient Known Being God did it, having the Name YHWH. When we
say that when God is One, His Truth is One, we mean this Oneness is actually two-fold. This is because,
as Aristotle has said all Truth is a correspondence, a two-fold one, between what is (that is reality) and
what is (which is also reality). And, when we say that when God is Two, His Truth is Two, we mean that
we can know this in a way that Parmenides has explained is both an intuitive monadic, one-fold and
possibly non-rational kind of knowledge. The Two Persons knowing this Two-fold Truth being God
YHWH, the intuitive irrational part of this knowledge being absolute consciousness itself, and God His
Only Son, YHWH YHWH, who is the rational and mostly intellectual part of this knowledge. He, Jesus is
only mostly intellectual because He is in the Father, and the Father is in Him and this is Itself many times
a non-rational happening. How does all of this relate to the four four-fold ways of knowing referred in
the Passover Seder. Well, these four ways are 1) knowing about knowing this, 2) not knowing about
knowing this, 3) not knowing this and not knowing it, and 4) knowing it and not knowing it. I hope this,
my feeble attempt to explain the first two steps in what will always have to be an intuitive mystical
Trinity of our knowledge of God instantiating itself in us as a Holy Spirit, giving gifts of wisdom,
understanding, patience, judgement, strength, love, faith, hope, does not confuse you but enlightens
you. Please say Amen.
