DAATH or DA'AT - Hebrew (Thav, 'Ayin, Daleth) - Knowledge, Cunning, Awareness;
"Daath" is used in Genesis to refer to the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil, as well as in the Proverbs of King Solomon:
Proverbs Chapter 3: "19 The LORD by his wisdom hath founded the earth; by understanding hath he established the heavens.
20 By his knowledge the depths are broken up, and the clouds drop down the dew," (my italics).
In Qabbalah, Daath is the Sephiroth which is not a Sephiroth. It is the Veil which conceals the Abyss and it is the gateway to
the Qliphoth, the dark side of the Tree of Life. To reach Kether, The Crown, and attain the ultimate spiritual goal of Qabbalah,
one must first cross the Abyss.
In Aleister Crowley's concept of Daath, the Qabbalist may be able to embrace the Abyss and spiritually reside there while
destroying the ego. He or she is then reborn from the womb-Abyss of the Tree of Life. The first entity encountered at rebirth is
Binah, or Understanding, the Supernal Mother, followed by Chokmah, or Wisdom, the Supernal Father, and then finally The Crown.
"-- Kabbalah -- Your Path to Inner Freedom" by Ann Williams-Heller, states that Daath, "in its biblical sense, means 'as a man
knows his wife.' This indicates the mystical union of maleness and womb-man-ness which happens on a level other than wisdom
and understanding. Thereby it points to a relationship which goes beyond the biological gratification of human sex."
According to Kenneth Grant, the Abyss on the other side of Daath is a sort of other dimension of reality and consciousness which
he calls the Mauve Zone. Grotesque shades and specters inhabit the Mauve Zone, and many artists and philosophers have
encountered this dark world, though they could only hint at their experiences in their bodies of work.
KADOSH or QADOSH - Hebrew (Shiyn, Daleth, Qowph) - Holy (One), Saint;
"An Encyclopedia of Freemasonry", 1924 by Albert G. Mackey defines Kadosh as:
"The name of a very important degree in many of the Masonic Rites. The word (Shiyn, Daleth, Qowph) is Hebrew, and signifies
holy or consecrated, and is thus intended to denote the elevated character of the degree and the sublimity of the truths which
distinguish it and its possessors from the other degrees," and "The degree of Kadosh, though found in many of the Rites and in
various countries, seems, in all of them, to have been more or less connected with the Knights Templar."
Interestingly, the Torah gives no vowels for "Qadosh", only providing those three consenants, Shiyn, Daleth and Qowph, but
(Christian) translators have attempted to alter the meaning of the combination of consenants by denoting vowel sounds.
qadash - "to be clean, consecrate, purify, sanctify"
qodesh - "sanctuary"
Qadesh - "a place in the Desert,"
qadesh - "a (quasi) sacred person, i.e. a (male) devotee (BY PROSTITUTION) TO LICENTIOUS IDOLATRY: -- SODOMITE, unclean."
"Qadeshah" (He, Shiyn, Daleth, Qowph) is the feminine form of qadesh and is translated "a female devotee (i.e. PROSTITUTE): -
HARLOT, WHORE."
Genesis 38:21 - "He asked the men who lived there, 'Where is the shrine prostitute who was beside the road at Enaim?' 'There hasn't
been any shrine prostitute here,' they said."
Job 36:14 - "They die in their youth, among male prostitutes of the shrines."
