The raven kept circling around the ark while the dove descended down to earth

At the moment the ark touched the mountains of Ararat the waterlevels showed the name of God in the 15 cubits of the mountains height and the 11 cubits of the ark submerged in the waters

After this Psalms 29:10

"hashem was sitting on the flood"

"hashem was sitting on the flood"

יְ֭הֹוָה לַמַּבּ֣וּל יָשָׁ֑ב

in the initial letters ("rashei teivot") of
"yom hashishi vaychullu hashamayim"
so that's why
"lo tohu barah lashevet yitzrah"

and Psalms 110:1

"sit at my right hand until I make your enemies your footstool"

Ezekiel 47:10
And it will be [a place] beside which fishermen will stand from Ein-Gedi to Ein-Eglayim



abarim-publications.com/Meaning/Enegla…
sefaria.org/Ezekiel.47.10?…
Ein-Eglayim



From (1) the noun עין ('ayin), which means both eye and fountain, and (2) the noun עגל ('egel), calf, from verb עגל ('agal), to go in circles.abarim-publications.com/Meaning/Enegla…
I thought it to be the Omega from the saying "I am the Alpha and the Omega"

alluded to in John 21:12
μεστὸν ἰχθύων μεγάλων ἑκατὸν πεντήκοντα τριῶν

since Omega = Hebrew "ayin gadol" and 153 is gematria of "eglayim"
and more "egel" is cognate to "igul"= circle

were there two trees in the midst of the garden or just one?

Genesis 2:9 has the tree of life in the midst of the garden and the tree of knowledge

not: the tree of life and the tree of knowledlge in the midst of the garden

chabad.org/library/bible_…
v.17 said that he should not eat of the tree of knowledge

while Genesis 3: 3 says that he should not eat of the tree in the midst of the garden
