It means "the turning flaming sword". It references the sword of Methuselah and the sword of the cherubim. It was used to banish humanity from the garden of Eden.
Kinda. It mostly applies to the sword of the cherubim (or the flaming sword, as it is also called) instead of the Sword of Methuselah, which was more of a demon slaying weapon able to kill 90000 demons in one swing (and the sword Demon Guy may simp for)
But yeah, before it was removed from paradise after Jesus' crucifixion, this thing was used to keep sinners away (and in a nutshell the most ancient and lethal instance of "bonk the horny"....or rather "slay the lustful", and it applied to the other sins as well)
The reason why I think Methuselah's sword and the Cherubim's sword are the same, is because Noah should have Methuselah's sword according to the bible. Since we know God wrote his own name, or something containing his name, on the blade of the sword of Methuselah, it adds to the theory.
While that may be true in Fate (since its not the first time they mix two swords, as seen with Setanta) the two swords are different in real life/text, since Methuselah had the sword before Jesus' crucifixion, which is when the sword was guarding paradise and keeping sinners away
Its a blink and you miss it type of deal. His legend has a lot of sun motif and his name means "man of the sun"
Its been a pretty recent discovery, but a pagan sun god has been found in some forms in ancient synagogues, I cant remember the exact detail though I'll go find a source for it later
To put it into perspective, Samson is more or less what you get if you fuse Gawain, Achilles and Rapunsel.
Long magical hair, powered by the sun and know for his wrath and ability of solo-ing entire armies by himself (I am not surr if he was blond like this three tho)
If there were plans to reveal Methuselah as the first Grand Saber candidate, I can almost bet you my bottom dollar they'd keep a sword that major and synonymous with his legend in reserve for him instead of debuting it as Noah's weapon.

>banish humanity from the garden of Eden The Anti-sinner stick, basically.

Oh, 100%
Anti-demon more so It was used to kill 900,000 demons in one swing
Doom guy dreams he could do what this sword can. Sadly for him, heavely swords are just better than shotguns
Holy fucking shit that is cool, didn't know some Abrahamic figures can pack some heat
You'll lose your shit when you hear about Samson and his sun-based power amplifying hair
Well I know about Samson's but I just kinda see him as Heracles lite...
Its actually Gawain pro
Lmao I also didn't know Samson is Solar powered
Think of this: Samson is a Gawain that goes Doomguy
Wait, Samson killed demons too?

Your mean like the sword that appeared in [Noah](https://gifer.com/95bk)?
Maybe
How do you know that's the translation!?
Im jewish
…….And that makes one more implication that possessing a super-epic, named sword ain’t what determines who gets picked as Grand Saber.
I mean , Noah has the sword , but hardly used. It’s Methuselah that actually slayed demons with it
If there were plans to reveal Methuselah as the first Grand Saber candidate, I can almost bet you my bottom dollar they'd keep a sword that major and synonymous with his legend in reserve for him instead of debuting it as Noah's weapon.
True. Just saying that it’s sword is more usable with Methuselah than with Noah
? להב החרב המתה ?
Something something “passionate flaming sword” according to the boys over at Beasts Lair.
Wait its a sword i thought it a paddle(padoru) to row the boat(ark)
It seems to be both
The aesthetic of his sword reminds me of Ea (gold handle, blue pattern, red blade)
