Subtracting this hypothetical element, we are left with Lilith the Queen of the Night,
in all her colorful finery, seducing males in their sleep. “The Beast” is then the “impure”
male whom she rides while they dream, perhaps.
Otherwise, if we ignore the Babylonian influence, and stick with the Egyptian version
of the story, our hypothetical Lilith construct “reduces” to Nephthys, “Perfection”,
“Death”, “Corruption”, “Lady of the Night”, again (as Isis was Lady of the Day), the
“Solve” half of the equation. Physically, Nephthys accommodates and pays homage to
the Holy and prodigious ass’s phallus of her brother and husband Set, by spreading her
cheeks and giving it up the hard way (gotta love these Egyptians). For a pervert such as
myself, it’s a bit of religious iconography worthy of great reverence and no little awe.
Set was one of the greatest of the Egyptian deities, from the earliest times, and only
fell from favor after the Hyksos occupation, as they somehow associated him with
certain Semitic or Syrian gods (Budge says “Baal”, usually rendered in Egyptian as
“Bar”. I must go back and look at his various mates, soon). He was apparently shown as
part of a composite figure, often portrayed as a dual of Horus-Set in combination.
According to Budge, he was in every respect the equal of “Heru-ur”, “Horus the Elder”,
the flavor of Horus intended in the composition, and as such may be productively
compared with the third chapter of the Book of the Law. Budge also notes that the sky
by day was symbolized by Horus, and that of the night by Set. Though he was associated
with the South, his kingdom was in the northern sky, and he is somehow associated
with the constellation Ursa Major. When we went successfully into the 19 th Æthyr that
time in Orinda, ca, Set was “shown” to be the “Pole Star”. This came as quite a shock to
both David and myself.
Nephthys remained popular, despite her associations, even after her husband and
brother Set had been demonized. Given the Jehovic directive to “be fruitful and multiply”,
we can imagine quite easily what the Jews would have thought of Nephthys. They
generally frowned on any form of sexual activity that did not lead to popping screaming
wigglers, despite their patron deity’s sexual proclivities, as attested by numerous passages
in the Old Testament about the Levites and the Qadoshim. (Aside: What do you make
of the quotes from the Old Testament in the second chapter of the Book of the Law?)
Is any of this making sense? I’m just rambling along with this, hoping maybe
something will strike a spark.

PS—I’ve thought about your description of that table in Enochian Sex Magick [p 146].
From what you say, I’d expect it’s part of the “Rudd” material. Alas, it is not a part of the
