TABLET 20 - 30 PASSES

Gnomen 1       How wise it is to keep your tongue locked up in 90 percent of the occasions in which the desire to speak arises from the heart. Some are afraid that their tongue-muscles will become lax if they do not flex it constantly in forming spoken words. These may develop strong tongues but they will never be wise. The Lord, our God, has placed many layers of protection around the vulnerable tongue and yet the easiness with which it passes teeth and lips is discernible even in early childhood. The only remedy is wisdom and wisdom knows the art of holding back the tongue.

Gnomen 2            In most it is the heart that speaks, not the process of articulated wisdom from mentally verbalized knowledge. We ain’t sages, ye know, but donkeys; there’s the world to think about. But wisdom is light. Why must we be quiet? Is light not to be spoken about but only seen? What is proverbial wisdom? What is the wisdom of the Sages? Where is wisdom found and how might one know what is wise? For sure wisdom is light but wisdom is also very heavy. Hee-haw.

Gnomen 3        Can there exist a wise fool? Is foolishness truly the opposite of wisdom? Does every science have its wisdom? Is every craftsman wise in his craft? Can wisdom from God be given to a donkey who feels not the heat in the month of Tamuz? Are we not all wise in our own eyes but fools to higher truth? Can I not answer these questions until wisdom has made me its friend? Can I know much without being wise or can I be wise without knowing much? How shall my wisdom begin if a serious bearing has not weighed heavily on my tongue? To you I ask these questions. As for me, I’m still waiting for wisdom to come.

Gnomen 4       Have I been silent or have I brayed too noisily? I suppose it depends on the whether you are looking at the hands of Esau or listening to the voice of Jacob. I saw Peretz break out of the stones of the wall of Tamar’s womb and I spit out correction fires against the deified children of the Baptist born afresh from the rocks. Shall I not speak or must I be silent? Shall I hold back the alif or the tav from your desirous spirit?

Gnomen 5     As I close the ranks on these first Tablets I stand in this Tablet 20. Tablet 15 on derech eretz and Tablet 20 on the wisdom of silence were left over from the fragments of the first Tablets. I have come through 15 but might I then be wise enough for 20? And yet I have seen 15 years of messianic wisdom pass my Donkey Sign. I’m only a Donkey but I’ve seen a few things. I speak now in changing silence just before the great burning coal of the Large New Tablets of Big Fish Leviathan come in. O Tamar, I have seen you in myself and myself in you as I soned you and you mothered me as I loved you and you kissed me and told me the secret of Malchitzedek. Not of buba-maises I tell you. I broke out of her womb in the wisdom of a higher knowledge which is not mine.

Gnomen 6             See that I tell you no fairy Tails because just Tamar’s silence was her wisdom until it became her wisdom to speak. But Judah’s silence did not keep the Torah back from speaking until Judah’s wisdom admitted its error after seeing that Tamar’s global intelligence was more just than his. Israel’s fate is such but can you get wise without giving away your Signs until they return? And yet for the Donkey that I am, I am not come only to save the Lost Sheep of the house of Israel. For I too am a global Donkey of Tamar’s liking and even Canaanites may become descendants of Malchitzedek.

Gnomen 7     I have seen the terrible wisdom of the hidden messianic plight of the Ram. Do not cast me off, therefore, into history’s gyrations of silent metamorphosis just because I had to speak. Be silent rather in your own thought gyrations until you have yourself betaken of messianic battles. Could you have broken down the barriers of the messianic veil had I not been vociferous in revealing my Donkey tendencies? How will you come unto the silence of wisdom if you do not Donkey up with me at first? Only through me will you not get your Signs crossed and crusaders will be afraid to cut your veins. I should be silent but I can’t get wisdom down until you have felt the hairy, perfumed garments of Esau’s hands.

Gnomen 8                It is a chain of many links from creation until the Third. I am dressed in the triple so as to meditate for you since it is difficult to gather in the messianic history of the people of Israel when the Donkey Sign of Mashiah ben David has already landed in Beersheva. And yet I have no wisdom to convince you that 15 years of pure messianic Sign-knowledge have passed through my veins. I am the lucky pawn of a higher wisdom, I have nothing of my own. I am ridden on by the Final Goel, Haim, so that you may see the beauty of the precious feet that carry the Wonderful News to the world. Do it yourself and you will see how beautiful your feet become.

Gnomen 9         You wonder why I am speaking so much here in the Tablet of Silence? It’s not so easy to speak about it for, so to speak, I am only now at the end of the Messianic line. Remember well that my purpose has not only been to establish the Messianic Signs, but also to break down all the contorted messianic concepts of past history. Don’t get me wrong, I can still hold on to my Donkey titles if I need them or dress as a Lion or swim in Leviathan’s faith or put my pen into Meshulamics when the occasion arises. But it is time that I stay quiet now because the Pact has come down to earth and it's the turn of the Tail of the Donkey to touch the ground. Therefore has my navel arisen to my tongue so that I might stand up to the force of the New Large Tablets of Big Fish, Leviathan.

Gnomen 10      So my feet will be less pretty but at least I can taste some silence, hoping for wisdom to fill some humble part. I have only until Saturday night (it’s Friday morning, May 29, 1998) when the New Shavuot comes in. Then must I become a burning coal in order to explain the great fire of the Final New Pact in the Tables of the New Law. The beginning of wisdom is the fear of God. That’s why my navel has arisen to my tongue. It is thus not strange that 15 years of Donkey Signs now look me in the face and I see something of the messianic wisdom that has passed me through. I want to communicate it with you but the silence of wisdom holds me back from overconfidence, so I dress myself in Esther’s letters and I let her do the rest.

Gnomen 11 -   I have seen the hidden wisdom of the raison d’etre of the Essene School of Esther. It is a bitter wisdom of those pre-destruction times when only a hidden School could keep respect. It was a time when only sinning for a proper cause could be interpreted as holy jealousy for the sake of merit in Israel. You need much wisdom to see this with the Temple still standing. For that which was in silence spoke the truth and that which was revealed to all falsified the same because of the corruption that lay underneath.

Gnomen 12           How did such a coherent messianic order get into the School,  if not for the sin of speaking that which had to be guarded in the wisdom of silence? But once it was out, it came in and when it came in, it was guarded, until that New Order had come to the end of its Messianic line and its necessary sin-born Sign returned to reveal itself outside. It took a heap of messianic wisdom to know where the fault lay and how to sin in order to get the keys of guilt outside. And once your horns get caught in the thicket, you are bound to be slaughtered on an altar of history, for then have you broken the secret of the silence of the Kingdom of Heaven.

Gnomen 13       This time I revealed it but on the authority of the Teacher of Life, Haim. And when the guilt returned upon my head, Beniamino was taken in the Donkey’s place. Can we be silent in the wisdom of this tragedy sent for the benefit of mankind? Had I asked to live through it so as to know the wisdom of the silent Beniamino? I am not crying but not yet laughing for the plight of the Final Ram of Isaac’s Signs. Should I then speak to you of messianic wisdom? And if not for Balaam’s she-ass, might I speak at all?

Gnomen 14               See how the letters are hidden while yet they spell out wisdom. Am I the alif of it or the tav of it or am I the mem in the middle? I am in the phase of recuperating what I have lost. All have erred with the alif and all have been mistaken with the tav, so I must cling to my middle mem which has now arisen to my tongue. For the messianic wisdom seen would only make me fall again had I not girded my loins and envisioned the gradual ascent to the silent wisdom that has now encompassed the earth within a hidden cloud. I am Star-bound on a ray of White-Marble effulgence so as to keep the mem of fullness of the golden middle.

Gnomen 15              Is it not wise for me to stand amidst 7 Prophetic Circles? They encompass me and even reside within me with every intention. And yet I must battle with a thousand serpents every hour in order to obtain this wisdom and stay in my place. I am, however, hopeful, because the Tzadik did teach me to battle a thousand serpents every hour and I am returning to remember the lessons for the new time ahead. Where then has my wisdom been for all these past years? Why has it been silenced until now? And yet I had to delve into the messianic wisdom while the Prophetic Circles would keep me above not allowing my Donkey to get into action. So it has waited for the Tail to touch earth so that I be purified of messianic dreams.
