El Elyon, the Most High, the Father, is the eternal mighty one, the highest God and the spirit of all flesh. Nothing makes him, apportions him, or judges him, so he is uncreated. He apportions the nations and judges the gods, so he orders, and he is the father of the gods he orders. Drawn as a directed graph of the court relations the text states, he is the source: in-degree zero, no edge coming into him, and an out-edge to every god below him. A closed graph cannot author the orientation of its own resolution (*On Occurrence: The Four-Gon*, Stewart, 2026g, Theorem 1), and El Elyon is the source of that imported sign. The terminus, the imported bit (*The Bit*, Stewart, 2026dk, §2), and the Theorem 1 sign are one structural object seen at the theological, the information, and the substrate scale. Read by its own marks, the highest term of other traditions names the same uncreated source. It is named as the Father, Egypt's Atum (source of the gods), Neoplatonism's One (uncaused source of all emanation), Taoism's Tao (the source before the ten thousand things), and Aristotle's Unmoved Mover (which causes motion and is moved by nothing). The authority-regress forces the convergence. Ask who is above a tradition's gods, and if the tradition answers with a terminus, the question ends at the first god nothing orders. That god orders the rest. The finding carries a null: the emptiness tradition asks the regress and answers that it has no terminus. It also carries a prediction. Any untested tradition that asks the regress must either name an uncreated source that orders its gods or say outright that the regress has no terminus. This is independent systems converging on one position, at the theological scale. **Keywords:** El Elyon, Elohim, YHWH, Jesus, congregation of El, sons of God, Numbers 16:22, Psalm 82, Deuteronomy 32:8, apophatic theology, transcendence, first cause, negative theology, comparative structure, the One, graph theory
