Sauron is an all-seeing eye (demiurge) who killed his master to take his place and tried to conquer the world.
To do so, he forged (created) a ring that binds all the rings of power (bondage of world orders).
An alliance of Men and Elves fought them and the King of Men, Isildur, cut the ring off of Sauron's hand, which destroyed Sauron's body and made it rupture. (It ended his world)
Cutting the ring of bondage is akin to breaking his own slave chains for him. He was set free and so was the world.
But the ring spreaded corruption, the ability to have absolute power over the entire known world was too much for Man, and it was lost.
Then a hobbit found it, fishing in a lake. Lakes are representative of libraries of information, since they contain so many things sometimes so randomly, and he fished it up right there when it was ready to be taken.
The hobbit represents the common ordinary folk, and what did this common ordinary man and his common ordinary friend do as soon as he grabbed a hold of the ring? They fought for control over absolute power, and one killed the other.
In the Shire, that was the ultimate cardinal sin; nobody killed in the Shire. It was a humble common ordinary land of the folk with natural law and natural ways of doing things.
"Smeagol" did that, and the ring's magic turned him into a Gollum. A golem, literally.
Which makes Solomon's Ring the closest analogy from real life, and the Rings of Power Solomon's sigils/seals.
That doesn't mean Tolkien's work is hebrew ofc.
It's just more than British. It talks of the whole European world from his perspective with his worries and knowledge of it fueling the stories.
Of course the darker evil power of the East would be hebrew at the root.
Of course the fancy Austrians and their Italian territory are near derelict when the Polish winged hussars come to save them at Vienna.
Of course it's all themed and styled after British history. The proceedings aren't.
