    The concept of an Avatar comes from The Actual Teachings Of Hinduism... and refers to: The deliberate descent of An Angelic Deity to Earth - for the sole purpose of: Spiritually Instructing Us and Leading Us Into The Proper Spiritual Path! Meanwhile, the name: " Jacob Sully " - indicates The True Nature of this particular Avatar. After all, it translates directly to: " Israel's Keen Eye "; and indicates that: He Is Actually The Archangel Michael In Human Form - who stands watch continually over The People Of Israel.

    Thus,
    - The Home Tree of: " Pandora " - literally represents The City Of Jerusalem; and metaphorically those long prophesied: " Trees Of Life [ aka, Unobtainium - the most precious resource anywhere ] " - that shall one day be there...
    - The Navi are The People Of Zion...
    - The People Of The Home Tree are The Jews already living within Israel...
    - And Those Who Are Gathered To The Final Battle are: The House Of Israel, The House Of Joseph, and The Wild Olive Branches Of Yahweh [ or Eywa ].

    The 2009 James Cameron film "Avatar" gets its name from the physical vessel occupied by humans to interact with the local Navi tribe. The avatar is an organic body resembling one of the locals. The humans lie in chambers to connect their minds with the avatar bodies.

    In the film, the 'avatars' were the alien bodies which the humans were controlling. The literal meaning of the word is a representation of somehing else, and the alien bodies were representing the humans.

    But as is often the case with movies, the title has multiple layers of meaning. The aliens could be said to be avatars of the planet Pandora, and Jake could be said to be an avatar of the human race, representing his people to the aliens.
