The Letters "Vov" & "Hey"

191) The ו "Vov" entered and put forth her claim, saying: "O Lord of the world, may it please Thee to use me first in the creation of the world, inasmuch as I am one of the letters of Thy Name - "HAVAYA". Said the Lord to יer: "Thou, ו"Vov", as well as ה "Hey", suffice it to you that you are of the letters of My Name - "HAVAYA", part of the mystery of My Name, engraven and impressed in My Name. I will, therefore, not give you first place in the creation of the world".

Even though this request had already been made by the letter י"Yood" and was rejected; yet, the ו"Vov"thought that the י"Yood" was rejected due to the fact that her dimension of light stems from a high source: the head of "Atzilut"; and therefore the ו "Vov" pleaded that the world be created with her dimension of light, which constitutes the ו"Vov" and the ה "Hey", the light of the last two letters of the Holy Name "HAVAYA", which receives "Meichin" (Light) from the Sephirah "Binah", who is the mother of the letters ו"Vov" and ה "Hey".

GOD said to the ו "Vov" and the ה "Hey": Suffice it to you that you are of the letters of My Name.

GOD answered the ו "Vov" and the ה "Hey" like He answered the י"Yood"; for the י "Yood" was also circumscribed by GOD. He said to her "DYE" (Enough); Do not extend yourself further. The ו "Vov" and the ה"Hey" were also instructed not to stretch out further than the ש"Shin", in order to prevent the "Klippoth" from coming close to you, that is, to the ו"Vov" and the ה "Hey".

This is why you are unsuited for use in my work of creating the world; for you are in danger in that you also must be preserved from attack by the "Klippoth".
