Tejas, Apas and Prithivi. The first two esoteric yet un-
known are Ani and Anupadaka. The first name means
One, Unity, the Atom, and is a name of Brahma. The

Seven things were formed before the world. Law, Re-
pentance, Paradise, Gehenna (that is Gai hinnom), the
Throne of Glory, and the Messiah. The Targum
Yerushalmi says these were formed 2000 years before
the World s creation. Talmud, Pesachim, 54. i.

opinion of his fellow-man, the time of Jewish restora-
tion and the Fall of Persia (whatever that may mean).
