He took Isaac and planted the world with him, that it may persist forever, as it is written, \u201cAnd I will establish My covenant, Isaac.\u201d He took Jacob, sat him down before Him, played with him, and was glorified in him, as it is written, \u201cIsrael, in you I will be glorified.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>97) Jacob is gripped to the tree of life, in which there is never any death, for all of life has evolved in this tree, and it gives life to all who cling to it. For this reason, Jacob did not die. When did he die? When it is written, \u201cAnd he gathered his feet unto the bed.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The bed is as it is written, \u201cBehold, it is the bed of Solomon,\u201d which is&nbsp;<em>Malchut<\/em>. And because it is written of this bed, \u201cHer legs go down to death,\u201d it is written, \u201cAnd he gathered his feet unto the bed.\u201d And then, \u201cHe perished and was gathered unto his peoples.\u201d However, as long as he clung to the tree of life, which is&nbsp;<em>ZA<\/em>, he did not die, since there is death only from the side of&nbsp;<em>Malchut<\/em>, and the Creator made Jacob the senior among the patriarchs, as it is written, \u201cJacob, whom I have chosen.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cAnd I looked at the animals, and behold, one wheel was on the earth beside the animals.\u201d How does this text relate to the verse, \u201cAnd He removed the wheel of his chariots\u201d? The animals are in&nbsp;<em>HGT<\/em>&nbsp;of&nbsp;<em>ZA<\/em>&nbsp;through the&nbsp;<em>Chazeh<\/em>, and the wheels are from the&nbsp;<em>Chazeh<\/em>&nbsp;down of&nbsp;<em>NHY<\/em>&nbsp;of&nbsp;<em>ZA<\/em>, where there is the&nbsp;<em>Nukva<\/em>&nbsp;of&nbsp;<em>ZA<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are two points in the&nbsp;<em>Nukva<\/em>&nbsp;of&nbsp;<em>ZA<\/em>: 1) the point that is sweetened in&nbsp;<em>Bina<\/em>, who is mercy and is called a key; 2) the point of the unmitigated quality of judgment, which is called a lock.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>From the perspective of the second point,&nbsp;<em>Malchut<\/em>&nbsp;is unfit for the upper light because the restriction is on her, and all the&nbsp;<em>Mochin<\/em>&nbsp;that she receives relate only to the first point, called key. Hence, the second point is concealed within the first, and the first point is disclosed and dominating. Through this correction,&nbsp;<em>Malchut<\/em>&nbsp;is fit for reception of&nbsp;<em>Mochin<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is why it is written, \u201cAnd I looked at the animals, and behold, one wheel was on the earth beside the animals.\u201d Even though there are two points in&nbsp;<em>Malchut<\/em>, as it is written, \u201cTheir appearance and workmanship being that of one wheel within another,\u201d for the wheel of the lock is concealed within the wheel of the key. Still, only one wheel is working in it, the key, and the other wheel is completely undetectable. All the&nbsp;<em>Mochin<\/em>&nbsp;of&nbsp;<em>Malchut<\/em>&nbsp;depend on the correction of the wheel of key, and all the more so the&nbsp;<em>Sitra Achra<\/em>, who receives from her. When He wished to destroy Egypt, He removed this correction, as it is written, \u201cAnd He removed the wheel of his chariots.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The upper&nbsp;<em>Merkava<\/em>&nbsp;[chariot\/assembly] is the root of all the&nbsp;<em>Merkavot<\/em>&nbsp;[plural of&nbsp;<em>Merkava<\/em>],&nbsp;<em>HGT<\/em>&nbsp;of&nbsp;<em>ZA<\/em>&nbsp;and the&nbsp;<em>Malchut<\/em>, from&nbsp;<em>Chazeh<\/em>&nbsp;of&nbsp;<em>ZA<\/em>&nbsp;and above. The patriarchs are the&nbsp;<em>Merkava<\/em>, and when it is said, \u201cHe makes governance with the patriarchs,\u201d it means that&nbsp;<em>Bina<\/em>&nbsp;made governance in&nbsp;<em>HGT<\/em>&nbsp;of&nbsp;<em>ZA<\/em>, which are the legs of her&nbsp;<em>Merkava<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He took Abraham and sustained the world with him because Abraham is the right line,&nbsp;<em>Hesed<\/em>&nbsp;of&nbsp;<em>ZA<\/em>, in whom the world, which is&nbsp;<em>Malchut<\/em>, exists. This is so because as long as the&nbsp;<em>Hochma<\/em>&nbsp;in her does not clothe in&nbsp;<em>Hesed<\/em>&nbsp;of&nbsp;<em>ZA<\/em>, she has no sustenance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He took Isaac and planted the world with him, since Isaac is the left line,&nbsp;<em>Gevura<\/em>&nbsp;of&nbsp;<em>ZA<\/em>, from whom the&nbsp;<em>Malchut<\/em>&nbsp;is built, for&nbsp;<em>Malchut<\/em>&nbsp;was built of the left line of&nbsp;<em>ZA<\/em>. Thus, Isaac planted her and Abraham only sustained her, clothing her with&nbsp;<em>Hassadim<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He took Jacob and sat him down before Him, in the middle, since Jacob is the middle line,&nbsp;<em>Tifferet<\/em>&nbsp;of&nbsp;<em>ZA<\/em>, which decides between the two lines, right and left, sustaining the illumination of both of them, as was said, \u201cHe played with him and was glorified in him,\u201d it is because were it not for the middle line, there would be no light in&nbsp;<em>Bina<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Jacob is gripped to the tree of life because it is gripped to&nbsp;<em>Bina<\/em>, where there is life, and it is called \u201cthe tree of life.\u201d For this reason, Jacob did not die, for there is no grip to the&nbsp;<em>Sitra Achra<\/em>&nbsp;in him. However, when he connects to the&nbsp;<em>Nukva<\/em>, there will be a grip to the&nbsp;<em>Sitra Achra<\/em>&nbsp;in him because the&nbsp;<em>Nukva<\/em>&nbsp;has connected to him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And when did he die? When it is written, \u201cAnd he gathered his feet unto the bed,\u201d when he connected with the bed, with&nbsp;<em>Malchut<\/em>, then he died. This is so because it is written of this bed, \u201cHer legs go down to death,\u201d since she provides for the&nbsp;<em>Sitra Achra<\/em>, who are death, and all that there is for the&nbsp;<em>Sitra Achra<\/em>, they receive from the&nbsp;<em>Malchut<\/em>, who is&nbsp;<em>Nukva<\/em>&nbsp;of&nbsp;<em>ZA<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This explains the four legs of the upper&nbsp;<em>Merkava<\/em>,&nbsp;<em>Bina<\/em>, which are&nbsp;<em>HGT<\/em>&nbsp;of&nbsp;<em>ZA<\/em>&nbsp;and the&nbsp;<em>Nukva<\/em>&nbsp;that receives them. They are also called \u201cfour animals.\u201d The four legs of the lower&nbsp;<em>Merkava<\/em>, from the&nbsp;<em>Chazeh<\/em>&nbsp;and below, are&nbsp;<em>NHYM<\/em>, and they are called \u201cwheels,\u201d due to the wheel within a wheel that is built in them, since the entire part below&nbsp;<em>Chazeh<\/em>&nbsp;of&nbsp;<em>ZA<\/em>&nbsp;belongs to the&nbsp;<em>Nukva<\/em>&nbsp;that is corrected in a wheel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>98) All the camps above extend from the four camps of the Shechina, which are the wheels. Also, all the camps are gripped in each other, degrees in degrees, the upper ones and lower ones hang down from one another and incorporate in one another. And there is a holy animal over them\u2014the&nbsp;<em>Nukva<\/em>&nbsp;from&nbsp;<em>Chazeh<\/em>&nbsp;of&nbsp;<em>ZA<\/em>&nbsp;and above\u2014where there are four animals. The&nbsp;<em>Nukva<\/em>&nbsp;is the fourth animal, and all the masses and the camps journey under her hand, under her authority, going by her and camping by her. This is so because all the chariots, animals, and wheels have only what they receive from this upper animal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>99) This is an animal to which all other animals cling. Several animals for animals hung down from it, meaning many animals cascaded from one another and were included degrees within degrees. And all the upper ones and lower ones go and sail at sea, in the&nbsp;<em>Nukva<\/em>. The upper ones are included in her, giving to her, and the lower ones are included in her, receiving from her, as it is written, \u201cThis is the sea, great and wide.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>100) When the sea raises its waves, the judgments, all the ships rise and fall, as it is written, \u201cThey rose up to the heavens, they went down to the depths.\u201d A storm was present, and strong wind was going over him forcefully. And the fish of the sea scatter to all sides: some to the east, some to the west, some to the north, and some to the south. And all the people in the world\u2014on which these fish of the sea see an inscription, due to their sin\u2014take them and swallow them in the caves of dust.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When the lower ones sin, the correction of the concealing of the wheel within a wheel is corrupted because of them, and&nbsp;<em>Malchut<\/em>&nbsp;of the quality of judgment appears, meaning that from her perspective,&nbsp;<em>Malchut<\/em>, the sea, is unfit to receive lights. Hence, the ships at sea, which are like the&nbsp;<em>Merkavot<\/em>&nbsp;[chariots\/assemblies] on land, rise and fall and are on the verge of breaking. And the fish of the sea, which are the angels in&nbsp;<em>Malchut<\/em>\u2014who were connected in the four directions, which are&nbsp;<em>HG<\/em>&nbsp;<em>TM<\/em>\u2014because this light has parted, that link of&nbsp;<em>HG<\/em>&nbsp;<em>TM<\/em>&nbsp;has loosened and they scatter each to its own side, from which it was extended. And the people of the world who corrupted their ways and caused it, because their sin is inscribed within them, swallow them in the caves of dust, in&nbsp;<em>Malchut<\/em>&nbsp;of the quality of judgment, since dust is the name of&nbsp;<em>Malchut<\/em>, and the quality of judgment that appeared in her is called \u201ca cave.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>101) All the ships do not move from their places and do not rise or fall, except for the time when one leader of the sea comes and knows how to complete the stormy wind of the sea. When it rises over the sea, it pauses from its anger and rest is found.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At that time, all the ships go by a straight path and do not stray to the right or to the left, as it is written, \u201cThere the ships go; this Leviathan that You have created to play with.\u201d This is&nbsp;<em>Yesod<\/em>&nbsp;of&nbsp;<em>ZA<\/em>, the middle line, and all the fish of the sea assemble in their places, and all the animals are happy with him, and the animals of the upper field are happy, as it is written, \u201cAnd all the animals of the field will play there.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The stormy wind that comes at sea and the ships that rise and fall are already the beginning of the correction. This is so because during the judgments the sea freezes, and all the ships do not move from their place, and do not go up and down, for the sea freezes during the judgments and the ships in it cannot move from their places, except for the time when one leader of the sea comes, the middle line, and raises the screen of&nbsp;<em>Hirik<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At that time, that stormy wind is revealed first, meaning&nbsp;<em>Malchut<\/em>&nbsp;of the quality of judgment, and the ships go up and down. Afterwards, he sweetens it in the quality of mercy until she is fit for reception of light, and he knows how to complete the stormy wind of the sea, meaning he knows how to sweeten it in the quality of mercy. Then \u201cAll the ships go by a straight path and do not stray to the right or to the left,\u201d for then he unites the right and left lines in each other on the way of the middle line.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>102) As it is above in&nbsp;<em>HGT<\/em>&nbsp;of&nbsp;<em>ZA<\/em>, there is below in&nbsp;<em>NHY<\/em>&nbsp;of&nbsp;<em>ZA<\/em>. And as it is below, there is at the bottom sea, in&nbsp;<em>Malchut<\/em>. Also, as it is above in&nbsp;<em>HGT<\/em>&nbsp;of&nbsp;<em>ZA<\/em>, there is in the upper sea, in&nbsp;<em>Bina<\/em>. And as it is above, there is below in&nbsp;<em>NHY<\/em>&nbsp;of&nbsp;<em>ZA<\/em>. And as it is below, there is in the bottom sea,&nbsp;<em>Malchut<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>103) The&nbsp;<em>Guf<\/em>&nbsp;[body] of the upper sea is&nbsp;<em>Bina<\/em>; its length and width, the heads and arms, as well as the body, all is as it should be, and all are called by his name. Similarly, in the sea below,&nbsp;<em>Malchut<\/em>, there is the head of the sea, the arms of the sea, and the body of the sea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And as it is above in&nbsp;<em>HGT<\/em>&nbsp;of&nbsp;<em>ZA<\/em>, meaning as there are four wheels of the&nbsp;<em>Merkava<\/em>&nbsp;[chariot\/assembly] in&nbsp;<em>ZA<\/em>,&nbsp;<em>HGT<\/em>&nbsp;of&nbsp;<em>ZA<\/em>&nbsp;and the&nbsp;<em>Nukva<\/em>, they are included in the upper sea, in&nbsp;<em>Bina<\/em>, too. And&nbsp;<em>HGT<\/em>&nbsp;there are called \u201carms,\u201d which are&nbsp;<em>HG<\/em>&nbsp;and&nbsp;<em>Guf<\/em>, are&nbsp;<em>Tifferet<\/em>, and&nbsp;<em>GAR<\/em>&nbsp;is the&nbsp;<em>Rosh<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>104) It is written, \u201cZebulun will dwell by the seashores.\u201d But there was one sea in his inheritance, so why is it written, \u201cBy the seashores\u201d? Seashores are as it is written, \u201cand his flank shall be toward Sidon,\u201d and it is written, \u201cwho came out from Jacob\u2019s thigh,\u201d since Zebulun was the right thigh of the&nbsp;<em>Guf<\/em>, which is&nbsp;<em>Netzah<\/em>. This is why it is written, \u201cHis flank.\u201d The Sea of Galilee was in his inheritance, and from here was the snail for the azure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>105) There are several&nbsp;<em>Merkavot<\/em>&nbsp;[plural of&nbsp;<em>Merkava<\/em>] over&nbsp;<em>Merkavot<\/em>, the wheels of the&nbsp;<em>Merkava<\/em>&nbsp;run quickly, and the supports of the&nbsp;<em>Merkava<\/em>&nbsp;do not deter from riding them. The&nbsp;<em>Merkava<\/em>&nbsp;of the appointee over Egypt is not found to be a complete&nbsp;<em>Merkava<\/em>, for it is written, \u201cAnd He removed the wheels of his chariots.\u201d There were several&nbsp;<em>Merkavot<\/em>&nbsp;going on one support of a wheel, over which he was appointed, since this was removed from his dominion. When it was removed from his ruling, all the&nbsp;<em>Merkavot<\/em>&nbsp;were removed from their governance and did not go. Then, all those below in this world were removed from their dominion, as it is written, \u201cOver Egypt, over Pharaoh, and over those who trust him.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It was said that several&nbsp;<em>Merkavot<\/em>&nbsp;were going on the support of one wheel, meaning on a single wheel, which is the point of&nbsp;<em>Malchut<\/em>&nbsp;that is corrected in the quality of mercy, without which they would be unfit for reception of light. This is so because once the correction of the&nbsp;<em>Malchut<\/em>&nbsp;that is sweetened in the quality of mercy has been removed, all the&nbsp;<em>Merkavot<\/em>&nbsp;were removed from their dominion and did not go, for they were no longer worthy of receiving light. Thus, their dominion has been removed and this is why they could not go.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>106) At that time, the governance of Egypt ruled over all the other nations, since the power of the Egyptians broke, meaning the power of the sweetened&nbsp;<em>Malchut<\/em>, from which the Egyptians suckled all their power. The power of the rest of the nations broke, as it is written, \u201cThen the chiefs of Edom were alarmed.\u201d It is also written, \u201cThe peoples have heard, they tremble,\u201d since they all clung to the work of Egypt, and clung to the Egyptians to deliver them. At that time, they all asked for help from Egypt to grow stronger. For this reason, their hands became limp when they heard of the mighty deeds that the Creator executed in Egypt, they could not stand, and were all shaken and broken from their dominion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>107) Certainly, when their power broke above, the power of all those who cling to it broke, since because the force of everyone above has been broken, all those below broke due to that force that was broken first. For this reason, \u201cAnd He removed the wheel of his chariots\u201d means the power of above. \u201cAnd they drove them with difficulty,\u201d since when it broke, they did not go.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>108) It does not write, \u201cAnd He removed the wheels of his chariots\u201d or \u201cThe wheel of his chariot.\u201d Both of them are in plural form or both are in singular form. However, it writes, \u201cAnd He removed the wheel of his chariots,\u201d where wheel is in singular and chariots is in plural. This is so because the wheel is the power to which they all clung. This is why it was said in singular.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>109) Happy are Israel, for the Creator wishes to cling to them and to be a part to them, and they will be His part, as it is written, \u201cAnd cling unto Him.\u201d It is also written, \u201cAnd you who cling unto the Lord your God.\u201d It is really \u201cThe Lord,\u201d and it is written, \u201cFor Jacob has chosen&nbsp;<em>Koh<\/em>&nbsp;for himself.\u201d And it is written, \u201cFor the portion of the Lord is His people, Jacob the lot of His inheritance,\u201d meaning He took them out of the seed of holiness to be His lot. But the&nbsp;<em>Sitra Achra<\/em>&nbsp;and the nations of the world have no hold in&nbsp;<em>ZA<\/em>&nbsp;whatsoever. For this reason, He has given to Israel the high and holy Torah, which has been hidden for two thousand years before the world was created. And for His love, He gave it to Israel, to follow it and to cling unto it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>110) All the camps above and all the&nbsp;<em>Merkavot<\/em>&nbsp;[chariots\/assemblies] are gripped to each other degree-to-degree; the upper and lower are tied together, as it is written, \u201cThis is the great sea.\u201d And the holy animal is over them; this is the&nbsp;<em>Nukva<\/em>&nbsp;from&nbsp;<em>Chazeh<\/em>&nbsp;of&nbsp;<em>ZA<\/em>&nbsp;and above, receiving from the three animals of&nbsp;<em>ZA<\/em>, and she is the fourth animal, from which everyone receives, even the&nbsp;<em>Merkavot<\/em>&nbsp;of the&nbsp;<em>Sitra Achra<\/em>&nbsp;and the nations of the world. And all the masses and the camps journey under her hand, going by her word and pausing by her word. When she goes, everyone goes, since everyone is gripped to her.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>111) When the Creator wished to remove Pharaoh\u2019s masses below, He first removed their power above. He removed it, and He removed that high and holy place, the point of&nbsp;<em>Malchut<\/em>&nbsp;that is sweetened in&nbsp;<em>Bina<\/em>, which is set up on the holy animal that leads all those&nbsp;<em>Merkavot<\/em>&nbsp;of Egypt\u2019s minister above. This is so because all the&nbsp;<em>Merkavot<\/em>&nbsp;are in her possession, even those of the&nbsp;<em>Sitra Achra<\/em>. When this one departed, all the camps and&nbsp;<em>Merkavot<\/em>&nbsp;could not ride. And since they could not, the governance of the appointee over Egypt was removed and he was taken through burning fire. And then the governance of Egypt was removed. This is why they said, \u201cLet us flee from the children of Israel.\u201d What is the reason? It is because they saw the appointee over the Egyptians being burned in the fire.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>112) When Israel were approaching the sea, the Creator called the minister appointed over the sea and told him, \u201cWhen I created the world, I appointed you over the sea, and I have a condition with the sea: its waters must divide before My sons. Now is the time for My sons to pass through the sea.\u201d Afterwards, it is written, \u201cAnd the sea regained its strength at daybreak.\u201d What is \u201cRegained its strength\u201d? It is to the condition that it had with the Creator when He created the world, since \u201c[to] its strength\u201d comprises the same letters as \u201cto its condition\u201d [in Hebrew].<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>113) Israel were by the sea, and Israel saw the waves of the sea rising and falling. They raised their eyes and saw Pharaoh and his masses. They feared and cried out. It is written, \u201cThe sea saw.\u201d What did the sea see? It saw Joseph\u2019s coffin and fled from it, since it is written about Joseph, \u201cHe fled and he went outside.\u201d Hence, because of that, the sea saw and fled. It is also written, \u201cAnd He removed the wheel of his chariots &#8230; And Egypt said, \u2018let us flee from Israel,\u2019\u201d since they saw as if the land of Egypt was being consumed by fire. Then they said, \u201cLet us flee from the children of Israel.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>114) When the Creator wishes to remove a government in the earth, He does not do so until He removes its government in the firmament. And He does not remove the firmament until He appoints another in its stead, so their service in the firmament will not be deficient, to keep what is written, \u201cAnd to whom He wants, He will give it.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>115) \u201cLord, our Lord, how great is Your name in all the earth.\u201d When the Creator wishes to break the power of the idol worshipping nations, He intensifies His judgment over them and breaks them, and removes their government from before Him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>116) \u201cThat give Your splendor over the heavens.\u201d It should have said \u201cthat You have given\u201d or \u201cgive Your splendor; what is \u201cthat give Your splendor\u201d? It is the deepest river of all,&nbsp;<em>Bina<\/em>. David prayed his prayer to extend from it over the heavens,&nbsp;<em>ZA<\/em>, and this is the \u201cThat,\u201d which is the name of&nbsp;<em>Bina<\/em>, as it is written, \u201cI am that I am.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>117) When that river, the deepest of all,&nbsp;<em>Bina<\/em>, is extended and comes out over the heavens,&nbsp;<em>ZA<\/em>, all are in joy and the queen,&nbsp;<em>Malchut<\/em>, is crowned with the King,&nbsp;<em>ZA<\/em>, and all the worlds are glad and the governance of the idol worshipping nations is removed from the queen. At that time, all those who clung to her raise their heads.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>121) It is written, \u201cAnd Aaron took Elisheva, the daughter of Amminadab, the sister of Nahshon, for his wife.\u201d The assembly of Israel,&nbsp;<em>Malchut<\/em>, is called Elisheva, after the&nbsp;<em>Sheva<\/em>&nbsp;[seven]&nbsp;<em>Sefirot<\/em>&nbsp;in her. Aaron is her best man, to set up her house, to serve her, and to bring her to the King,&nbsp;<em>ZA<\/em>, to bond. Henceforth, every priest who serves in the Temple is&nbsp;<em>Malchut\u2019s<\/em>&nbsp;best man, like Aaron.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>122) Ahimelech was a great high priest. All those priests with him were the queen\u2019s best men, meaning&nbsp;<em>Malchut\u2019s<\/em>. When they were killed, the queen remained alone, without a coupling with&nbsp;<em>ZA<\/em>, and her best man was lost. Thus, there was no one to serve before her, to set up her house, and to delight her in making a coupling with the King.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>From that day forth she moved to the left side and stands over the world, lurking for everyone, killing for Saul and for his sons. Several thousands and several tens of thousands of Israel died, and that sin still hung until Sennacherib came and startled everything.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>123) It is written, \u201cAs yet he will remain at Nob that day.\u201d This is the high day, the assembly of Israel,&nbsp;<em>Malchut<\/em>, who lost her best man, who remained without the right, to embrace in the left, since the priest is the right. For this reason, \u201cYet today at Nob,\u201d to demand judgment for the killing of Nob, the city of priests, until with that sin, the verse ends, \u201cAnd Lebanon will fall by the Mighty One.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>124) It is written, \u201cThe Hill of Saul has fled.\u201d Saul is here because he killed the priests in Nob and caused the right arm to be uprooted from the world. Because of this sin of his, those of his dwelling place, The Hill of Saul, fled from the king of Assyria. Since that day, no man has passed in that place, to avoid risking himself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>125) Happy is the man who has found wisdom. It is a man for whom the Creator has provided a treasure on the way: the face of the Shechina. It is written about it, \u201cBut the path of the righteous is like the light of dawn.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>126) It is written, \u201cFor David, a psalm. The earth is the Lord&#8217;s, and all it contains.\u201d In another place, it is written, \u201cA psalm of David.\u201d \u201cFor David, a psalm\u201d implies to the singing that David said about the assembly of Israel,&nbsp;<em>Malchut<\/em>. \u201cA psalm of David\u201d implies to the singing that David said about himself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>127) \u201cThe earth is the Lord&#8217;s, and all it contains.\u201d \u201cThe Lord\u2019s\u201d is the Creator,&nbsp;<em>ZA<\/em>. \u201cThe earth and all it contains\u201d is the assembly of Israel,&nbsp;<em>Malchut<\/em>. And her multitude, which connects to her, is called \u201cAll it contains,\u201d as it is written, \u201cThe whole earth is full of His glory.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe world and those who dwell in it\u201d are the land below, which is called \u201cThe world,\u201d and which clings to the judgment above, of&nbsp;<em>Malchut<\/em>. It is written about it, \u201cAnd He will judge the world in righteousness.\u201d Whether individuals, a nation, or the whole world, they are judged by this judgment, the judgment of&nbsp;<em>Malchut<\/em>, called&nbsp;<em>Tzedek<\/em>&nbsp;[justice].<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>128) Pharaoh suckled from that judgment until he and his whole nation were lost. Since this judgment of&nbsp;<em>Malchut<\/em>&nbsp;awakened upon them, that appointee that was appointed to rule over them was removed, at which time everyone below were lost, as it is written, \u201cAnd He removed the wheel of his chariots.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe wheel of his chariots\u201d means Pharaoh\u2019s chariots. And their wheel is the appointee who rules over them. Hence, they all died at sea, in the upper sea, in&nbsp;<em>Malchut<\/em>&nbsp;that was awakened upon them and by which they were blotted out. This is why they drowned in&nbsp;<em>Yam Suf<\/em>&nbsp;[The Red Sea], for it marks the&nbsp;<em>Sof<\/em>&nbsp;[end] of the degrees,&nbsp;<em>Malchut<\/em>, by which they were blotted out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>129) \u201cAnd He made them drive it heavily.\u201d A person is being led on the road that he walks. Regarding Pharaoh, it is written, \u201cBut the heart of Pharaoh was made heavy.\u201d It is with that that the Creator led Pharaoh, with actual heaviness. The Creator told him, \u201cYou have made your heart heavy, I lead you in it.\u201d Hence, \u201cAnd He made them drive it heavily.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>130) \u201cThe Egyptians said, \u2018Let us flee from the children of Israel.\u2019\u201d \u201cThe Egyptians said\u201d is the appointee who was appointed over Egypt, their minister above. Since his government was overthrown, how could he chase Israel?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>131) This is certainly so, but \u201cThe Egyptians said\u201d is not their appointee, but Egypt below. It is written, \u201cFor the Lord is fighting for them against the Egyptians\u201d means the Egypt above, their appointee. And since their strength broke above, their strength and might broke below, as it is written, \u201cFor the Lord is fighting for them against the Egyptians.\u201d Precisely, against Egypt, which is their strength above, their appointee.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Where it writes only \u201cThe king of Egypt\u201d and it does not write \u201cPharaoh,\u201d it refers to the minister appointed over Egypt. Here, too, in Egypt, it is the appointee over Egypt. But here when it writes, \u201cThe Egyptians said, \u2018Let us flee from the children of Israel,\u2019\u201d it refers to Egypt below, since they saw that the force and might of their appointee above were broken.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>132) When the assembly of Israel awakens, meaning&nbsp;<em>Malchut<\/em>, all those who cling to her awaken, as well as all the others below, meaning all the nations, and Israel is above all of them because they take her in the stem of the tree, when she is connected to&nbsp;<em>ZA<\/em>, called \u201cthe tree of life.\u201d For this reason, Israel grip her more than all the nations of the world. And when they awaken to harm Israel, the force of those who govern them\u2014their appointees above\u2014breaks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>133) That appointee is the governor of Egypt, who oppresses Israel by several enslavements. And after he was broken first, the kingdoms below were broken, as it is written, \u201cFor the Lord is fighting for them against the Egyptians.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>95) \u201cAnd I looked at the animals, and behold, one wheel was on the earth beside the animals.\u201d The Creator
