Adam Qadmon is ‘Primordial man’ in the Kabbalah. Primordial means ‘ancient, early’ as well as ‘fundamental’, exuding a level of importance. Kabbalists also call Adam ‘Elyon’ which means ‘Most High’, indicating Adam was a god.
In reality, Adam’s heart had become exalted and he said “‘a god I am, seat gods sitting in heart of seas”, but Yahweh gods told him “You are Adam and not a god” in Ezek 28:2. Adam had accepted Satan’s offer of power and riches becoming prince of Tyre Ezek 28: 2 – 9, making Satan king Ezek 28:12.
An Enemy
The Hebrew צר (Strong’s H6865 42 occurrences) that is the proper name ‘Tyre’, in the same form צר (Strong’s H6862 111 occurrence) means ‘adversary, enemy’, and in the form צרה (Strong’s H6869 73 occurrences) that is often found with the taw suffix instead means ‘straits, distress’. In the form מצרים (Strong’s H4714 614 occurrences), the mem prefix changes the verb into a noun, becoming the proper name ‘Egypt’.
The Hebrew יצר (Strong’s H3335 63 occurrences) that means ‘mold into a form’, especially as a potter, fig. ‘to determine’, translated ‘formed’ in Gen 2:7 & 8, must be when Adam became Prince of Tyre, becoming Yahweh’s enemy. In the same form יצר (Strong’s H3334 10 occurrences) means ‘be distressed, be straitened (in straits)’.
Adam was “A master אד ascended תעלת from out of מן the earth הארץ and the overflowing greed והשקה union with את all כל face of פני the ground האדמה. And determined to be an enemy ייצר Yahweh יהוה gods אלהים union with את the Adam האדם dust עפר from out of מן the ground האדמה and huffed ויפח in anger of them באפיו soul נשמת of life חיים and be ויהי the Adam האדם a soul לנפש living חיה.”” in Gen 2:6 – 7.
Enchanted
The Hebrew qadmon קדמון (Strong’s H6930) means ‘eastern’, from קדם (Strong’s H6923) that means ‘to project (one self)’, hence ‘to anticipate, hasten, meet’, but also means ‘front, before, ancient’ in Gen 2:8 & 3:24 (Strong’s H6924), and ‘east’ in Gen 2:14 (Strong’s H6926), that also means ‘before, formerly, origin from antiquity’ (Strong’s H6927), in Aramaic ‘ago, previously’ in Aramaic (Strong’s H6928). The same as קדמוני (Strong’s H6931) that means ‘ancient, of old’.
However, קדם also means 1 ‘to cut, to hew, to split, to fell’, 2 ‘to decide’, then ‘to practise soothsaying or enchantment‘, the fundamental signification ‘to divide‘, but it is ‘not used’ according to Dr. Fuerst on p1218 in A Hebrew & Chaldee Lexicon to the Old Testament.
It appears the terms ‘east, eastern’ refer to mysticism in the Bible, similar to the occult meaning seen in the article The Secret Eastern Influence on Magic & the Occult which states “HP Blavatsky, Aleister Crowley, and other esoteric exemplars were instrumental in infusing eastern mysticism into western culture – in ways that are still overlooked today.”
Adam was Enchanted by Satan, making him an Enemy of Yahweh
Adam is identified as being enchanted and an enemy in Gen 2:8 when “Planted ויטע Yahweh יהוה gods אלהים a garden/enclosure גן in Eden בעדן from [time of] enchantment מקדם and appointed name וישם appointed place שם union with את the Adam האדם leader אשר determined to be an enemy יצר.
In Gen 2:14 “. . . goes forth enchantment of קדמת Assyria אשור . . .”, whose enchantment from the waters of the deep/abyss תהום which made him “very high, and his top was among the clouds” is described in Ezekiel 31:3 – 4.
The earth was desolate/worthless/vain and a ruin and darkness was over the face of the deep/abyss תהום in Gen 1:2. This is described in Jer 4:22 – 24 “For my people are fools, they have not known me, they are foolish children without understanding, they are skilled at doing evil, but they know not how to do good. I looked at the earth and it was desolate/worthless/vain and a ruin, I looked to the heavens and they had no light, I looked at the mountains and behold they were quaking, all the hills were swaying . . .”
Adam Became a Serpent and Deceived the Ishshah
Adam was an Enemy יצר of Yahweh, enchanted קדם by Satan, when he became the serpent/diviner/enchanter נחש (Strong’s H5175 31 occurrences) and deceived the Ishshah in Gen 3:1 – 6. The Hebrew נחש also means ‘divined, diviner’ (Strong’s H5172 11 occurrences), and ‘enchantment, enchanter’ (Strong’s H5173 2 occurrences).
It is clear from Gen 3:1 that the serpent/diviner/enchanter was “a living being of חית the field השדה, a leader אשר made by עשה Yahweh יהוה gods אלהים”, not Satan.
In Gen 3:5 the serpent/diviner/enchanter said “in day you consume his Mamon and we will open them eyes of you and will be you as gods knowing good and bad”, and in v6 he said “. . . we will desire נחמד the counsel העץ to be wise להשכיל . . .”.
Adam had already consumed his Mamon and believed he was ‘a god’, so ‘we will open eyes of you and will be you as gods knowing good and bad” in Gen 3:5 means Adam and Satan will open Ishshah’s eyes, and “we will desire the counsel to be wise” in Gen 3:6 means Adam and Ishshah, because when Ishshah had “consumed the fruit, and gave also to mighty one לאישה toward becoming a people with עמה and consumed.”
Adam was Driven Out of Eden
Yahweh gods said “Behold, the Adam האדם has become one apart אחד his Mamon ממנו, knowing good and bad, and now, he might stretch out his hand and take also from the tree of life and live forever. So sent him Yahweh gods from garden Eden to serve union with את the ground leader seized from appointed משם. And drove out ויגרש union with את the Adam and placed from [time of] enchantment מקדם for garden Eden union with את the cherubim and union with את flaming the sword that whirls to guard union with את the way/road counsel עץ the life החיים.” in Gen 3:22 – 24
As Yahweh gods stated “I will put him in hand Mighty One nations to do to him as he does, for his wickedness, driven out him גרשתהו.” in Ezek 31:11
