50) The Shechina go down to Egypt with Jacob, as it is written, \u201cI will go down with you.\u201d The Shechina went down with Jacob, and 600,000 holy Merkavot<\/em> [plural of Merkava<\/em>] with her, as it is written, \u201cAbout six hundred thousand men on foot.\u201d 600,000 holy Merkavot<\/em> went down to Egypt with Jacob, and all rose from there when Israel came out of Egypt. It is written, \u201cAnd the children of Israel journeyed from Ramses to Succoth, about six hundred thousand men on foot.\u201d It is not written, \u201csix hundred thousand,\u201d but \u201cAbout six hundred thousand.\u201d This implies that as 600,000 below came out, 600,000 holy Merkavot<\/em> that were with them came out above.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

51) When those holy Merkavot<\/em> and holy camps came out, Israel saw and knew that they were detained from coming out because of them, because they were not coming out, and all of Israel\u2019s rush was for them, as it is written, \u201cAnd could not delay.\u201d It should have said, \u201cDid not want to delay,\u201d but it says that they could not because of the camps of angels for whom they were delayed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is known that all the children of Israel of the firmament are angels. It is written, \u201cWho come to Egypt with Jacob.\u201d It is not written, \u201cThese are the names of the children of Israel who come to Egypt with him,\u201d but \u201cThese are the names of the children of Israel who come to Egypt with Jacob,\u201d meaning the angels who come to Egypt first. And with whom did they come? with Jacob.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

52) When Jacob was saved from Laban and Jacob walked away, the angels of God met him. And when he went down to Egypt the Creator said, \u201cI will go down with you to Egypt.\u201d And if the Master went down, it is not judgment, meaning His servants will certainly go down with Him, as it is written, \u201cWho come to Egypt with Jacob,\u201d and it is not written, \u201cWith him.\u201d Who are the children of Israel here? They are the tribes, which are called the actual sons of Israel.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

53) \u201cCome, behold the works of the Lord, who has made desolations in the earth.\u201d Do not pronounce it Shamot<\/em> [desolations], with a Shin<\/em> with Patach<\/em>, but rather Shemot<\/em> [names] with a Shin<\/em> with Tzereh<\/em>. As the Creator did in heaven, He did on earth. There are the holy names in the firmament, and there are the holy names on earth, meaning the names of the tribes. It is written about them, \u201cThese are the names of the children of Israel who come to Egypt.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

54) On the day when Jacob went down to Egypt, 600,000 high angels went down with him, as it is written, \u201cBehold, it is the bed of Solomon; sixty mighty men are around it from the mighty men of Israel.\u201d These are locks that are carved according to the key. The keys turn in the place of the lock. The locks are on the seventh Sefira<\/em>, Malchut<\/em>, and they are carved in the sixth Sefira<\/em>, Yesod<\/em>, as it is written, \u201cMighty men are around it.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Malchut<\/em> has only HGT<\/em> NHY<\/em>, she ends in Yesod<\/em>, called key, and she lacks the Malchut<\/em> of Malchut<\/em>. The locks, Malchut<\/em>, which are carved according to the key, turn in the place of the key\u2014Yesod<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The essence of the lock is Malchut<\/em>, which consists of seven Sefirot HGT<\/em> NHYM<\/em>. Thus, it should have said that Solomon\u2019s bed, which is Malchut<\/em>, has seventy mighty men around it, seven Sefirot<\/em>, each of which consists of ten. However, they end in Yesod<\/em>, the key, and there is only HGT<\/em> NHY<\/em> in her, which are six Sefirot<\/em>, each of which consists of ten, which are sixty, as it is written, \u201cSixty might men around it,\u201d and not seventy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

55) \u201cBehold, it is the bed.\u201d The Shechina is called \u201cbed.\u201d \u201cOf Solomon\u201d means of the king that Shalom<\/em> [peace\/wholeness] is his, meaning ZA<\/em>, middle line, which makes peace between right and left. Sixty mighty men around it are 600,000 high angels that are from the army of the Shechina that descended to Egypt with Jacob. And the reason why they are sixty is that the Shechina is written with a key.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cOf the mighty men of Israel\u201d means the upper Israel, ZA<\/em>, to whom Gevura is extended<\/em> from him, as it is written, \u201cThese are the names of the children of Israel who come to Egypt with Jacob, they came each man with his household,\u201d they and their ways, for \u201chis household\u201d means his costumes and ways, since each angel has a specific operation after which it is named.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

56) If the people of the world knew Jacob\u2019s great honor when the Creator told him, \u201cI will go down with you to Egypt,\u201d they would lick the ground around his grave and for three parasangs [approximately 8 miles] away. It is written, \u201cAnd Moses went out to meet his father-in-law.\u201d They interpret that Aaron saw that Moses went out, and he went out with him, and Elazar and the elderly presidents went out with him, and the heads of the fathers and the leaders of the people, and all of Israel went out with them. It turns out that all of Israel went out to meet Jethro.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For who would see Moses going out and would not go out with him? And who would see Aaron and the presidents go out and would not go out? It turns out that everyone went out because of Moses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And if this was so because of Moses, it was even more so for the Creator, when He said, \u201cI will go down with you to Egypt,\u201d that the whole of the upper household would go down with Him. In other words, He alone, and then, \u201cThese are the names of the children of Israel,\u201d meaning the whole of the upper household, because it is written about Moses, \u201cAnd Moses went out,\u201d and all of Israel went out with him.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
