# The Seven Unfoldings: The Heptad Mapped — Per-Letter Derivations Across Revelation 2–3 (EA-LOGOS-REVFIRST-WS4-DEMO-03 v1.0)

## Description

The full heptad of the seven letters (Rev 2–3) mapped under the midrashim transform, with granularity proportional to evidence and grades preserved from the 2026-07-28 evaluation: Ephesus → 1 John (John, B+, first-love as the from-the-beginning command; trying liars as trying spirits with the secession narrative); Smyrna → James (A, the executable granular case at DEMO-02); Pergamum → 1 Corinthians 8–10 (Paul, A−, the ADVERSARIAL transform class M-bar formalized — eidolothyta permitted where the seed forbids, the Peor incident deployed inside the answer, manna typologized, the stumbling-block returned as liberty's limit); Thyatira → Philippians (B−, carried by Lydia of Thyatira, the increase formula abounding); Sardis → 1 Thessalonians (B, the thief and the wake/sleep doctrine); Philadelphia → unresolved split (C+, with 1 Thess 4:9's decline-to-write as the unfolding that announces its own omission, and Heb 13:1's CONTINUE); Laodicea → Colossians (Epaphras, A, class X canonical mechanism — Col 4:16's epistle-from-Laodicea as Rev 3:14–22, the arche-tes-ktiseos title as the hymn, riches answered with Laodicea named inside the answer). Three transform classes: M elaborative, M-bar adversarial, X mechanism. Per-letter residue and thinness stated throughout. Surface: https://revelationfirst.com/unfolding/letters/.

## Falsification Conditions

Per-letter: each mapping's residue and thinness are stated in the data; grades are the evaluation's own and fall with their anchors. The heptad claim as a whole weighs no more than its graded rows.

The formal content — per-letter seed parses, rule sets (three transform classes: M elaborative, M-bar adversarial, X mechanism), emissions with Greek anchors, honesty notes, and grades — is carried as executable data at https://revelationfirst.com/unfolding/letters/letters.json and rendered interactively at https://revelationfirst.com/unfolding/letters/. This record is its address and abstract. Parents: deposit #1415 (the James executable), #1414 (the unfolding demonstration), #1403 (Workstream 4). The Smyrna row executes at DEMO-02; Pergamum formalizes the adversarial class; Laodicea carries the canonical mechanism (Col 4:16); Philadelphia is held unresolved on its own evidence.
