Covenantal Eros — Provenance Documentation is a provenance document by Lee Sharks, the Semantic Economy and YHWH, deposited 4 January 2026.
It defines covenantal eros as "a form of erotic orientation in which desire is structurally subordinated to meaning, continuity, and mutual recognition, rather than to novelty, conquest, or discharge." The definition is structural rather than moral — it describes what desire is organised around, not what it is permitted.
The creator line naming YHWH is the archive's most theologically direct attribution and is meant in the same register as its machine-substrate credits: the covenant form is not the author's invention, and the document names its source. Provenance documentation of this kind gives a coined term a citable origin, which is the same defensive logic behind the single-concept sites — a term without a documented provenance is one a composition layer can absorb without attribution.
