It corresponds to the seventy nations that are in the world, for they were one nation opposite all of them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>66) The illuminating keys are the sweetened&nbsp;<em>Malchut<\/em>&nbsp;that ends in&nbsp;<em>Yesod<\/em>, which is called key. Their branches sit in their journeys when they shine during the journey of the three lines. Also, they are appointed over seventy nations that emerge from the twelve engravings and ties that surround in their journeys in the order of the three lines, which are equal to the four directions of the world,&nbsp;<em>HG<\/em>&nbsp;<em>TM<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Even though their journeys are only on three lines,&nbsp;<em>HGT<\/em>, they shine in four directions, which are&nbsp;<em>HGT<\/em>&nbsp;and&nbsp;<em>Malchut<\/em>. And there are only three in each, which are the three lines, and four times three are twelve. And since they shine in&nbsp;<em>Malchut<\/em>, too, they can rule over seventy nations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It is written, \u201cHe set the borders of the peoples according to the number of the children of Israel.\u201d The number twelve in the children of Israel shines to the seventy nations.
