Ka to Kuntia

730. Ka—Egyptian god of spirituality who communicates personal energy to others in order to live on after the vessel he inhabits dies. An afterlife deity associated with the myth of reincarnation. 731. Kabod—In addition to the word identifying the overwhelming brilliance and awe brought on by the appearance of God’s presence, it is the Hebrew word for glory used in the Bible. Kabod describes the excellence and the power of the Lord’s presence and anointing bestowed on people. Glory was, by definition, meant to be a weighty, demanding, and empowering enduement of the Most High God. It was a necessary enabler for anyone to do anything for the Lord. The bestowing of God’s glory immediately sanctified the person for His proximate use. It elevated them in stature and position in the kingdom, and once bestowed, attracted a host of benefits, blessings, honors, and privileges. 732. Kadesh—Also called Kadesh-Barnea and En-Mishpat, the word means “desert holy place.” Kadesh, spelled qadesh, means “holy.” The area was home to the Amelekites and the Amorites, and even the patriarch Abraham resided there. Kadesh served as an early campground of the Israelites for nearly forty years while they were en route to the Promised Land. It was about eleven miles from Mount Horeb, Sinai, where God handed down His Law, the Ten Commandments. 733. Kali—A Hindu goddess of darkness known as the “Dark Mother.” Represents maternal savagery and oppression. 734. Keys—A symbol of authority, prosperity, power, and entry into knowledge. Keys are often given as part of initiation rites. They licensed access to, and employment of, a religion’s society or cult mysteries. To unlock them was to reveal their secrets, the decoded enigmas. Keys are also emblems of official and municipal authority. Gold and silver keys represent pontifical authority dating back to mid-300s B.C. Possessing the key to anything equated to the guardianship of entryways and alternative progression from one stage or level to the next.
