n+:! Calah, perfection, also a trunk or pillar;
with different pointing: He is firm, or pining
with desire. This name was borne by an Assyrian
City (according to Inman), and it may have been
derived from a word like 352 Calah, adorned,
crowned, a bride, equivalent to the virgin , or
Ishtar; if so, we may compare it to ~ahq kalee,
beautiful . In Genesis 10: 1 1: "out of that Land
[Shinar] went forth Asshur, and built Ninevah,
and the City Rehoboth, and Calah."
D'Olivet suggest that Calah means the growing
wise, old men ruling within: "The word rhl
which signifies literally, an ancient, an old man,
that is to say, a man whom age and experience
have led to perfection. Thence by extension, the
idea of a senate, of an assembly of old men, of a
wise and conservative institution." [dYOlivet,
1976, p. 284.1 see 55.
n2 noah. rest, cessation. pleasing, kind. Ark
builder. marks a period of parlaya, or rest in
cycles of cosmic manifestation. see 936.
This name appears in Genesis 5:29: And he
called his name Noah, saying He shall comfort
us concerning our work and toil of our hands:
because of the ground which the Lord hath
cursed"
I. "And he called his name Noah (repose of
elementary nature), saying, this shall rest us (our
existence) and lighten our labor, and the physical
obstacles of our hands, because of the Adamic
element which Wl' has cursed.
11. He comments: 82. Noah. The root from
which this important name comes, is composed
of the sign of produced being f, image of
reflected existence, and the sign of the effort of
nature Yl, which gives birth to vital equilibrium,
to existence. This root offers the idea of that
perfect repose, which, for a thing long agitated in
opposed directions, results in that state of
equilibrium where it dwells immobile.
Nearly all the tongues of the orient understands
this mysterious expression. The Hebrew and the
Chaldaic draw from it two verbs. By the first
96
7ll72, one understands, to lead to the end, to
guide toward the place of repose; by the second,
N12, to repose, to rest tranquil, to be in a state of
peace, of calm, of perfect bliss. It is from the
latter, that the name of the cosmogonic
personage who saw the end of the world and its
renewal, is derived. It is the emblem of the
repose of elementary existence, the sleep of
nature." [d701ivet, 1976, pp. 167- 168.1
111. "A symbol of the individuality, or the
manifested self in evolution-the permanent
center of evolution in the soul. It is the: Buddhi-
manasic principle, or the incarnation of the self
as applying to the three lower planes ... The
Noah principle ... is perfection of the soul
according to its sage of development. The
knowledge it possessed is derived from within
(walked with God)." [Gaskell, 1981, p. 538.1
IV. A. Jokej writes: "Noah is the divinely
appointed figure, in whom the whole cause of
regeneration is set forth, every secret of this great
mystery being here drawn for us as God alone
could draw it.. Noah, then, is the spiritual mind,
for he is only the continuation of Seth's line, and
figures the form of life which the spiritual mind
takes as this stage in its development:, when it
has come so far as to know the judgement of the
old creation, and the way through that Judgement
to a cleansed and better world." ['Types of
Genesis, pp. 104- 1051
