N'chushtan in CJB is a form of Nachash in Hebrew. (NG1 293/311)
Nachash in Hebrew is a form of Nakhakh in Nile Valley languages.
Nakhakh is a form of Akhekh & Khekh.
Akhekh & Khekh are the two truths as Night & Light.
Some word variations of Akhekh & Khekh are naga, naka, nakak, nakhakh, khakh, kak, kek, kick Akhekh represent darkness and the serpent of darkness night, blackness and the unknown.
Khekh represents lightness and the serpent of lightness, day, whiteness of stars and the revealed. Form variations of the serpent are: monster, devourer, dragon, viper, gryphon Once again we are reminded Nehushtan of the Christian Bible and N'chushtan of the Judaism Bible are symbolic of the feminine. And this is why those symbols had to go. And this is why those symbols and their human counterparts were portrayed unfavorably in many ways until the thinking and behavior of generations was changed from glorifying the feminine to vilifying the feminine. This is not all about the female. It's about what happens in the case of all forms of two truths, the first becomes last like night and light, and then, after a while, the last becomes first. Over and over, round and round, all forms of the two truths have their day in sunlight, moonlight and pole star light. All things rise and all things fall. We know this. Nehushtan in Moses' day was a serpent that gave life; however, when referred to it later days it was viewed unfavorably. Its venom and veneration wore off. On an elemental note: the serpent, since it is a kerub-nuter, also represents the child. As a result, the serpent also represents the ever-coming one, Horus, Heru or Jesus.
Another of the many names of the serpent is “Messi”, the serpent of the “Sacred Word.”
Messi the serpent is said to be the serpent who seduced Eve. This Messi is the same as the Meshiach and the Messiah. Therefore, the serpent who seduced Eve is Nachash, thus the serpent is Nehushtan. (NG2 339/347) So, since the serpent in the tree is portrayed as dark, deceitful, evil and the devil, we again understand why. It's because the serpent was originally a symbol of darkness and female and black female. We know the Judaism and Christian Bibles are white male religions. So these religions had to put the female symbol as a form of evil and also put the female human as a form of evil. These religions doubled down on putting down the female, making us a afraid of the dark, and disrespectful of blackness. It worked. Even so, this process began in Africa and it's not the first time the cycle has repeated itself.
