Hyperborea



Ps. 48, 2: "Mount Zion in the Far North is the city of the great King."

Job 37, 22: "Out of the North He comes in golden splendor; God comes in awesome majesty."

Isaiah 14, 13: "You said in your heart: 'I will scale the heavens; Above the stars of God I will set up my throne; I will take my seat on the Mount of Assembly, in the recesses of the North."

Ezek. 1, 4: "As I looked, a stormwind came from the North, a huge cloud with flashing fire enveloped in brightness, from the midst of which something gleamed like electrum."

etc.

The Hebraic "zaphon" has associations with the "heavens", the extreme north, and the "sacred mountain" situated in the direction of the far-north; in the biblical texts, the cosmic north, "Hyperborea", represents the enigmatic, mountainous abode of the Godhead as polar-axial Unmoved-Mover--the "Monsalvatsch" or "Monsalvat" of Grail-Legend, etc.

The Tower of Babel and Ham

Of this, I am not so sure:

The historians of the European people such as Bill Cooper (After the Flood) and Mike Gascoigne (Forgotten History of the Western People) tell us that it was the descendants of Ham who built the Tower of Babel.


Perhaps this is the case. Certainly Northern Man (Solar Man of the Ice Age, the Tundra, and the Islands) probably had little to do with indiscriminate mingling and tower building. The spirit of the North was fragile and strong all at once, recessive in its traits (blue eyes, blond hair, etc.), and yet desirous of overcoming the cold which threatened the heart and hearth. It was a spirit of struggle and inwardness, unknown to those who dwelt near the equator.
