The Diagrams Above: a Biblical Categorization through Judaism



1. HaAdam (האדם) – The Collective Humanity


The outermost layer of the diagram represents HaAdam, referring to all of humanity, stemming from Adam and Eve. This category encapsulates both the righteous and the unrighteous, emphasizing the broad reach of human existence before the divine.


Ein Sof Aur (אין סוף אור) – This phrase means “The Infinite Light,” representing the boundless divine essence before creation, a central Kabbalistic concept.


Adam Kadmon (אדם קדמון) – The “Primordial Adam,” linked to divine creation and often associated with pre-fallen humanity or the eternal Logos (Word) in Christian thought.



2. The Lineage of Seth vs. the Lineage of Cain


Humanity is divided into two major lineages:


A. Sethite (Sons of G-d) – The Righteous Lineage


The descendants of Seth, found in Jesus’ genealogy (Luke 3), represent those who remain faithful to God. This group is considered the bearers of divine wisdom and righteousness.


Meshulam (משולם) – Meaning “repaid” or “peaceful,” referring to those Jesus calls “Blessed” in the Sermon on the Mount. Does the word sound familiar?

 

Noahite (בני נח, Bnei Noach) – Those who follow the Noahide Laws, considered righteous among the nations. They acknowledge ethical monotheism but do not fully enter Judaism. Perhaps a Sabian or Wise men from the East?

 

Hebrew Ministry & Judaism’s Ma’aminim (יהדות מאמינים) – “Believers in Judaism” who accept the revelation at Sinai and recognize the Messiah through the “obedience of faith” (often interpreted as Jesus’ yoke in Christian theology).


B. Qeinite Daughters of HaAdam – The Cainite Lineage


The descendants of Cain, viewed as the more corrupted lineage. However, this category does not equate them entirely with evil; rather, they represent those outside the covenantal framework. The reference to Cain’s marked protection suggests that mercy was still extended to them.



3. Categories of Righteous Individuals


Within the righteous Sethite lineage, individuals are further divided based on their level of spiritual attainment:


Chochmei Umot HaOlam (חכמי אומות העולם) – “The wise among the nations,” referring to righteous non-Jews who possess wisdom and ethical understanding.

 

Gibborim (גיבורים) – “Mighty ones,” often referring to warriors or those who upheld righteousness before the flood (e.g., Noah).

 

Anshei HaShem (אנשי השם) – “Men of the Name (G-d),” a term referring to individuals who are deeply devoted to divine service.

 

HaGerim (הגרים) – “The Converts” or “Sojourners,” representing non-Jews who have formally joined Judaism.


4. Judaism’s Internal Structure


Within Judaism, the diagram details different categories of believers:


Tzadikim (צדיקים) – “Righteous ones,” those who are spiritually pure and uphold the Torah.


Hasidei Umot HaOlam (חסידי אומות העולם) – “The Righteous Among the Nations,” including non-Jews who act with great righteousness and are justified by faith and thus obedient.


Yichus (יחוס) – Genealogical lineage, which holds significance in Jewish tradition for determining priestly or noble status.


Netin (נתין), Toshav (תושב), Asuph (אסוף) – These terms refer to various groups integrated into the Jewish community, such as temple servants, resident aliens, and assimilated converts.


5. The Threat of Amalek and Nephil Ishim


At the bottom of the diagram, Nephil Ishim (a fusion of Nephilim and Ishim) represents fallen beings, possibly reflecting the pre-flood corruption.


Amalek (עמלק) – This group symbolizes ultimate opposition to divine order. In Jewish tradition, Amalek is the arch-enemy of Israel and divine justice.


Key Theological Themes in the Diagram


The Sethite-Noahite Distinction – The division of humanity into those who follow divine righteousness (Sethites) and those who do not. Not Angels Mating with Humans


Jewish and Non-Jewish Righteousness – The diagram acknowledges non-Jewish righteousness through Noahides and Hasidei Umot HaOlam. Not Dispensations!


Messianic and Christian Influence – The references to Jesus’ “easy yoke” suggest an alignment with Christian interpretations of faith and righteousness. Jesus the Jew came for those sick!


Biblical and Kabbalistic Framework – The inclusion of Ein Sof Aur and Adam Kadmon ties the framework to Deep Jewish Theology.  Not disclosed to novices.


Moral and Eschatological Divisions – The presence of Amalek and the fallen ones suggests a dualistic view of righteousness vs. opposition to God. Spirtual Warfare.
