The potential sign united to that of interior activity produces a root whence come all ideas of productive cause, efficient will, determining movement, generative force. All ideas of paternity. Desire to have: a father: fruit. (The Hebraic Tongue Restored, Fabré d’Olivet, p. 287)
B-N – ‘emanated being; generative action’
The word which follows בנים, is also very far from signifying simply children. It characterizes, in general, the analogous creations of a creative being, whatever it may be. (The Hebraic Tongue Restored, Fabré d’Olivet, p. 113)
These sons of the Divinity, that have so perplexed the savants, are what the gnostics understood by their Aeons: that is to say, emanated beings. The root אין …exists in the Hebrew word בן, but contracted and ruled by the paternal sign ב, in this manner אן–ב. (The Hebraic Tongue Restored, Fabré d’Olivet, p. 176)

BN If one conceives the root בא, which contains all ideas of progression, growth, birth, as vested with the extensive sign ן, to form the root בן, this root will develop the idea of generative extension, of production analogous to the producing being, or an emanation; if one considers this same root בן, as result of the contraction of the sign of interior activity ב with the root אן which characterizes the circumscriptive extent of being, then it would be the symbol of every active production proceeding from potentiality in action, from every manifestation of generative action, from the me. (The Hebraic Tongue Restored, Fabré d’Olivet, p. 306)
