Tents and Cities
It was Cain[1] who built[2] the first city.[3]
When the Bible says Cain builded a city the word translated built[2] is the word banah (בָּנָה) which is similar to the Hebrew word for son which is Ben (בֵּן)[4] for the heads of these city-states were the Fathers of the citizens under the civil law.
Some of these descendants lived in tents.[5]
Abram and Lot lived[6] in tents[7] but Lot moved to the city of Sodom.
It seems that it was often difficult to find righteous people living in cities.[8]
When the Pharaoh would gather grain for the seven good years he gathered that food in the structure of a city type system.[9] And when the people came to eat his free bread they were removed to those cities.[10]
Which allowed the Pharaoh to build his treasure cities[11] which often become cities of blood.
Nimrod also built the city of Babylon just like Sumer and other city-states like Sodom which all had systems of of social welfare that was a snare and weakens the masses through a process of degeneration.
Living in tents
Abraham and Jacob were plain or mild[12] men who dwelt in tents[7] .[13] A word for tents in Hebrew is oleh (אֹהֶל)AlefHeyLamed which is identical to the word ‘ahal 0166 AlefHeyLamed (אָהַל) meaning "to be clear".
The word we see translated plain or mild is also translated blameless and given the Strong's number 08535[12] and spelled TavMem (תָּם) tam and is said to be from tamam (TavMemMem)[14] and often translated consume but defined complete or finish.
The word given the Strong's number 08537 but also spelled TavMem (תֹּם) tom[14] is said to mean integrity and translated upright.
- ת Tav is a Seal of a Higher kingdom or realm through faith. The paradigm keter–malchut “The Crown of Sovereignty” from the Tree of Life spiritually linking worlds or realms through an unseen doorway of faith. The Aleph & Tav are the first and last letters. [door sign cross seal] (Numeric value: 400)
- מ ם Mem Fountain of water, a flow, a fountain of the Divine Wisdom [massive, overpower chaos] (Numeric value: 40)
The letter combination of TavMem is often appears untranslated or referenced in the text.
Besides living in tents rather than cities they also built altars of Clay and Stone. Those altars were not merely piles of stones on which sacrifice were burnt up in a macabre ritual of superstition but were the alternative to the welfare systems or tables of rulers who offered dainties of free bread along with other benefits to snare the people under the civil law or in systems of corvee that make the people merchandise.[[s
Cities like Sumer had a system that provided a Social safety net]] which would bind the people like we see in Sodom, Nimrod's Babylon, or Pharaoh's Bondage of Egypt. This is also why Jesus condemned the Corban of the Pharisees set up by Herod.
Those systems not only degenerate the masses but curse children.
