 The Phoenician and Hebrew God Set or Seth
In the history of the god Seth is to be found a clue to the way in which the sublime and philosophical doctrines of the ancients, after their true meaning was forgotten, were finally changed so as to conform to the enforced humiliation and degradation of women.

As Set was a god of the desert and probably symbolized the destructive heat of the afternoon sun, and thus was thought to be infertile.

 Seth Warren: "God has no allergies"   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-19)
Here Derrida shows Plato's conception of Health (Virtue, Truth, the fruits of the soul) as arising from inside the body, whereas disease is fundamentally an allergic phenomenon, that is, an attack on the self-sustaining, individual body from an outside agent.
Thus the statement "God has no allergies" (101), since God, in his healthy omni-presence, is beyond binaries like inside and outside.
Nothing is outside of God and at the same time nothing impure can touch him.

 Seth and Jane Roberts Bookstore and Audio Collection
And there were certain topics that Seth touched upon in many sessions, like working with beliefs, becoming conscious in the dream state, spontaneity, the inner self, etc. Therefore, the description provided next to each tape is, at best, a very loose guide of the variety of information and knowledge presented by Seth during each session.
Seth also discusses: The physical body as a hallucination, how living spontaneously can lead to extra energy, creating "conscious forms" that are extensions of you.
Description- Seth discusses: rock concerts, telepathy, so-called "perfect masters," the inadequacies of science, accelerating your consciousness, tuning into your "higher" intellect, opening channels that are inherent in creaturehood that bring you through your creaturehood and into other dimensions, gods couched in creaturehood, the importance of forming questions for yourself in other than verbal terms.

 - Cain and Seth
They were preserved through the flood to begin again and the line of Seth ultimately fulfilled God's promise and brought forth The Redeemer; the Son of God, born of Mary a descendant of Seth through Noah's son Shem.
What we have in the story of Cain and Seth is nothing less than a model of the age of man. At the End of the Age the Great Tribulation will judge humankind according to spiritual lines.
But as it was with Enoch, another group in the line of Seth will be taken by God before the judgement comes.

 Seth
Ge 4:25 And Adam knew his wife again; and she bare a son, and called his name Seth: For God, said she, hath appointed me another seed instead of Abel, whom Cain slew.
Eve has recognized that God had indeed forgiven them of any past sins, and that the death of Abel was an act brought about by what we could term sibling rivalry or enmity of a carnal personality toward a Godly person.
We see that a part of the Divine Plan is to assure a continuous Godly line of people, who will serve God and their fellows, so that goodness can always be available for those who want something more than the carnal way of life, which always leads to disillusionment and heartache as a mean cause.
