ABSTRACT

This chapter explains bezel of the wisdom of the intimacy exists in the essence of Elias. Elias was a prophet before Noah, and God raised him 'to a high position'. He dwells in the heart of the celestial spheres, the sphere of the sun. He was sent to a town named Baalbek; Baal is the name of an idol, and Bek is the ruler of this town. This idol called Baal was characterized as a ruler. Elias had a vision of the mountain named Lubnan, from lubana, meaning a need, which was split open to reveal a fiery horse, all of whose organs were made of fire. When Elias saw the horse, he mounted it and consequently passion left him, and he became an intellect without passion and with no connection to the intentions of the soul. This is the perfect knowledge which was brought by the religions God sent down, and through this knowledge all imagination has dominion over.
