16) Rabbi Shimon said, \u201cHence, the heaven and their host were created in MA, the Malchut, for it is written, \u2018When I consider Your heavens, the work of Your fingers.\u2019\u201d Previously, it was written, \u201cO Lord, our Lord, how [MA] great is Your name in all the earth, who have displayed Your splendor above the heavens.\u201d Thus, the heavens were created in the name MA, the Malchut, and the meaning of the words is \u201cAbove the heavens,\u201d which points to Bina, who is called MI, above ZA, who is called \u201cheaven,\u201d when Malchut merits the name Elokim.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Interpretation: MA, Malchut, rises and is included in Bina, Elokim, after He created the light of Hassadim for a garment of honor to the light of Hochma in the name MI, at which time they clothed each other and the Malchut rose in the upper name, Elokim, which is the name of Bina, in which Malchut is included. For this reason, \u201cIn the beginning God created\u201d is the upper Elokim, Bina, and not Malchut, since MA is Malchut and was not built in MI, ELEH.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Interpretation: Since the lower world, MA, extends the Mochin in the name Elokim in the upper world, there was an ability for heaven and their host to be built by MA, since there are no offshoots without upper Mochin, which are Mochin of Haya. This is what Rabbi Shimon said, since the lower world is MA, and exists in the name Elokim from the upper world, as well, the heaven and their host were created in MA, in Malchut, and MA had the strength to elicit these offshoots to the heaven and their host.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This is why it is written, \u201cWho have displayed Your splendor above the heavens,\u201d to let us know that the Mochin extend from the name Elokim of YESHSUT by associating MI with ELEH, where MI is above the heaven, ZA. This is why it was said, \u201cAbove the heaven,\u201d where Malchut merits the name Elokim, meaning that the Hod, Mochin, above the heaven\u2014above ZA\u2014is YESHSUT, in which the name Elokim rises, and he is \u201cMI [Who] created ELEH [these].\u201d However, in heaven itself, ZA, there is no MI there, only MA.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Once the level of Hochma extended because of the point that returned and came out of the thought, a coupling of VAK was done again, to extend the light of Hassadim, and light of Hochma clothed in light of Hassadim. And then MI illuminated in ELEH.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
After the light of Hassadim created the light of Hochma, they clothed in one another and the Malchut rose in the upper name, Elokim, and the light of Hochma clothed in the light of Hassadim. Hence, the Mochin reached from MI to ELEH, the letters conjoined with one another, and Malchut merited the upper name Elokim. In the upper name, above the heaven, YESHSUT, in whom there is MI, but not in heaven, who is MA.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
MA, Malchut, and it was not built in MI, ELEH, since MI is Bina, and since the first restriction, there was no restriction in her at all because the restriction there was on the middle point, Malchut, which was restricted, to not receive light in it, and she was established in a coupling by striking, to raise reflected light. However, the first nine were clean of any restriction and were worthy of receiving the light of Hochma. But in the second restriction, to sweeten the Malchut with the quality of mercy, Malchut rises to Aba, Aba is established in her as male and female, and Malchut received the place of Bina.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
And the point, Malchut, rose to being a thought, Bina. Since then, Bina, too, was restricted and was erected with a screen to avoid receiving the light of Hochma within her, to receive the coupling by striking and to raise reflected light. Thus, at its source, Bina is fit to receive Hochma without any restriction, and she received the restriction and screen within her only to sweeten the Malchut.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Therefore, by raising MAN from the lower ones, a new light was extended from AB SAG of AK, which lowers the point back from the place of Bina to her place, to Malchut, as it was in the first restriction, and the point comes out of the thought. By that, the Bina is purified from any restriction and receives the light of Hochma once more. And once the level of Hochma clothes in Hassadim, MI illuminates in ELEH, and the name Elokim appears.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
And yet, this whole structure of the name Elokim is completely impossible in MA, since the MA is the end of the heaven below, the Malchut herself, on which there was the restriction at her source in the first restriction, too, and she is unfit to receive any illumination of Hochma within her. This is why MA, Malchut, and not \u201cBuilt in MI ELEH,\u201d since the whole construction of the name Elokim relates only to MI, through return and exit from the thought, and not in MA.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
17) But when the letters ELEH extend from above, from Bina, below to Malchut, since the mother lends her clothes to her daughter and adorns her with her decorations, the name Elokim extends from Bina, the mother, to Malchut, the daughter, and she adorns her with her decorations, when any male appears before her. At that time, it is written about her, \u201cBefore the Master, the Lord.\u201d This is so because then Malchut is called \u201cmaster,\u201d in masculine form [in Hebrew].<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It is written about it, \u201cBehold, the ark of the covenant of the Lord of all the earth.\u201d But the text names the Malchut, who is called \u201cArk of the covenant,\u201d by the name \u201cLord of all the earth,\u201d a masculine name. It is so because she received the vessels called \u201cgarments,\u201d and the Mochin, which are called \u201cornaments,\u201d from the mother, Bina, since then the Hey comes out of MA, Yod enters in her stead, and Malchut is called MI, like the Bina. At that time, she is adorned in male clothes, clothes of Bina, opposite the whole of Israel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Explanation: Once he has made a point at Rosh of AA and it rose to being a thought, since the Hochma was erected in her as a kind of male and female, he formed all the images in her. This means that all the levels of the five Partzufim of Atzilut were formed in her in a way that there is no more than KH of each level in AA, AVI, and ZON. Also, he engraved all the engravings in her, by whose force the three Sefirot\u2014Bina, ZA, and Malchut\u2014parted from each level to the degree below her, since Bina, ZA, and Malchut of AA fell into AVI, and Bina, ZA, and Malchut of AVI fell to ZON, and Bina, ZA, and Malchut of ZON fell to BYA. And these two Sefirot, KH, remained in the degree. They are called MI, and the three Sefirot that were separated from each degree are called \u201cthe three letters ELEH.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The letters ELEH are drawn from above, from Bina, down to Malchut, when the point rose to being a thought, the three letters ELEH were separated from AVI and fell to the degree below them, ZON. Then it is considered that ELEH of AVI, which are in ZON, extended from above to below and clothed inside the ZON, since ELEH of Aba, who is Ysrael Saba, extended to ZA, and ELEH of Ima, who is Tevuna, extended to Nukva.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ima [Mother] lends her clothes to her daughter and adorns her with her decorations. Upon the arrival of Mochin of Gadlut, a carving of one hidden image was extended, the holy of holies, a deep structure that comes out of the thought\u2014when the point returned and came out of the thought to her place, to Malchut. By that, the three vessels, Bina and ZON, were brought back to the degree, and the three lights of KHB, called \u201choly of holies,\u201d were extended. You should know that when the vessels of Bina and ZON were brought back from the Guf to Rosh of AA, AVI\u2014which clothe them\u2014were drawn along with them, and they, too, rose to Rosh of AA, where they received those Mochin of holy of holies at the Rosh AA.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It is so because the rule is that the upper one that descends to the lower one becomes like him, and the lower one that rises to the upper one becomes like him. Thus, in the state of Katnut, when Bina and ZON were separated from the Rosh of AA and fell to his Guf, when they clothe AVI from the Peh down, Bina and ZON of AA became actual AVI. For this reason, in the state of Gadlut, when Bina and ZON of AA returned to the degree of his Rosh, they took the AVI along with them, for they had already become one degree at the time of Katnut. Thus, even in Gadlut, now that AVI rose with them to Rosh of AA, they became equal to him, receiving the same Mochin in Rosh of AA, which are called \u201choly of holies.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
And in precisely the same way, ZON rose to AVI, since once AVI received the Mochin in the Rosh of AA, the point came out of the thought in them, as well, to the place of Malchut, by which their Bina and ZON were brought back to their degree of AVI. And when the vessels, Bina and ZON, rose once more to AVI, they took the ZON that clothe them along with them, and ZON, too, rise to AVI, receiving the Mochin of the holy of holies that are there.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cThe Mother lends her clothes to her daughter and adorns her with her decorations.\u201d In other words, since the three letters ELEH of Ima extended to the Nukva in the state of Katnut, it is considered that the mother lends her clothes to her daughter, since thus the three vessels Bina and ZON, which are ELEH, were separated from Ima and fell into the Nukva. Thus, they became actual Nukva because the upper that descends to the lower one becomes like him. It is considered that Ima lent her vessels of ELEH to the daughter, the Nukva, since now the Nukva is using them. And yet, it also means that she adorns her in her decorations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In other words, at the time of Gadlut, the three vessels, ELEH, Bina and ZON of Ima, return to Ima. Then the Nukva rises to Ima along with them, and the Nukva receives the Mochin of the holy of holies that are in Ima, since the lower one that rises to the upper one becomes like him. It follows that now, since Ima lends her clothes ELEH to the daughter at the time of Katnut, she adorns her with her decorations, with Mochin, at the time of Gadlut. Thus, she adorns with the decorations of Ima.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
And when does she properly adorn her with her decorations? There are two kinds of decorations from Ima to the Nukva, which are the Mochin of GAR: 1) From the lower Ima, Tevuna, who stands from Chazeh of AA and below. 2) From upper Ima, who stands from Chazeh of AA and above.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
When Nukva rises to Tevuna and Tevuna adorns her with her decorations, it is considered that these adornments are still not as they should be because then the Nukva is still poised for a question, like the Tevuna prior to raising MAN. Hence, they are not as they should be. Rather, when the Nukva rises to the place of upper Ima, from the Chazeh of AA and above, and upper Ima adorns the Nukva with her decorations, then it is considered that her decorations are as it should be.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
She adorns her with her decorations. \u201cWhen any male appears before her.\u201d At that time, it is written about her, \u201cBefore the Master, the Lord.\u201d This is so because then Malchut is called \u201cmaster,\u201d in masculine form. When the Nukva rises to Tevuna and receives the Mochin from her, the decorations are still not as they should be, since she is still posed for a question, meaning that she still needs to raise MAN from the lower ones, to be completely corrected. Then it is considered that the males in Israel receive from ZA, who rose to Ysrael Saba. But when the Nukva rises to upper Ima, she is completed entirely and is no longer poised for a question, to receive MAN. At that time, she is considered a male, and the males in Israel receive from her.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This is why it was said, \u201cWhen any male appears before her,\u201d when all the males in Israel appear before her and receive from her. This is because then the Malchut is called \u201cLord.\u201d She is not called ADNI, a female, but Adon [Lord], male, since she is not poised for a question, as the issue of raising MAN does not apply to her anymore. This is why she is considered a male.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It is written, \u201cBehold, the ark of the covenant of the Lord of all the earth.\u201d The ark is called \u201cthe Nukva,\u201d since the Yesod of ZA, who is called \u201ccovenant,\u201d entered her. Thus, the text calls the Nukva by the name \u201cLord of all the earth,\u201d a male.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It is so because then the letter Hey comes out of the MA, Yod enters in her stead, and Malchut is called MI, like the Bina: The Hey of MA exits her because the Hey of MA indicates that she is poised for the question, \u201cWhat did you know?\u201d Thus, the Hey of MA indicates that she is poised for a question, and this Hey of MA comes out of her, Yod enters instead of the Hey, and it is called MI, like Ima. Then she is built in the name Elokim, like Ima.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
18) Israel extend to the other letters, ELEH, from above, from Bina, to this place, to the Malchut, who is now called MI, like the Bina, as it is written, \u201cThese things I remember and I pour out my soul within me. For I used to go along with the throng and lead them in procession to the house of God, with the voice of joy and thanksgiving, a multitude keeping festival.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cThese [ELEH] things I remember\u201d means \u201cHere I mention these letters [the letters ELEH] with my mouth, and I shed tears in the desire of my soul, to extend the letters ELEH from Bina. Then I will lead them in procession from above, from Bina, to the house of God, Malchut, so that Malchut will be called \u2018God,\u2019 like the Bina, Elokim. And with what shall I lead them? With the voice of joy and thanksgiving, a multitude keeping festival.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Rabbi Elazar said, \u201cMy silence built the Temple above, Bina, and the Temple below, Malchut.\u201d Certainly, as they say, \u201cA word is a rock, silence is two.\u201d \u201cA word is a rock,\u201d which I said and commented on it. \u201cSilence is two\u201d is the silence that I kept, which equals twice as much, since the two worlds Bina and Malchut were created together. This is so because had I not stood still from speaking, I would not have obtained the unity of these two worlds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Interpretation: Once the letter Hey departs from the MA, and Yod enters the Mem, and it is called MI, Israel extend for her by raising MAN of other letters, ELEH, to this place, MI, and the Nukva merits the name Elokim. This is so because ELEH of the upper one fall to the lower one at the time of Katnut, hence they are drawn to the lower one at the time of Gadlut. This is so because when Bina and TM of the upper one\u2014the letters ELEH\u2014return to the Rosh of the upper one, they take the lower one along with them. Then the lower one acquires the letters ELEH and the Mochin in them because it is together with them at the Rosh of the upper one, since the lower one that rises to the upper one becomes like him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cIsrael extend to the other letters, ELEH, from above … to this place, as it is written, \u2018These things I remember.\u2019\u201d Extending these letters is raising of MAN, when Israel raise MAN to extend the Mochin of Gadlut by extending the letters ELEH of upper Ima to the Nukva. And it is written, \u201cThese things I remember,\u201d to extend them. This is why I mention the letters ELEH with my mouth, \u201cAnd I shed tears in the desire of my soul,\u201d the prayer at the gate of tears, which is never returned empty.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Then, once the MAN has been raised, I will lead them in procession from above, extend to the letter ELEH from above, from AVI, through the house of God [Elokim], to Nukva, who is called \u201cthe house of Elohim [God].\u201d After the extension of the letters ELEH, she herself is called Elokim, and this is why it was said that Malchut will be called Elokim, like Bina, like Ima.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
He said, \u201cA word is a rock, silence is two.\u201d This is so because the words of Rabbi Elazar raised the Nukva to the Tevuna, below Chazeh of AA, at which time she is still poised for a question and is called \u201ca rock.\u201d This is why he said, \u201cA word is a rock.\u201d However, Rabbi Elazar\u2019s silence, giving room for Rabbi Shimon to disclose the Mochin of Haya by the ascent of Nukva to upper Ima, by that, two worlds were built together, since the lower world, Nukva, became one with the upper world. He said, \u201cThe silence I kept is worth twice as much\u201d because two worlds were created and built together, since the Nukva rose to Ima and became a male, like upper Ima.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
19) Rabbi Shimon said, \u201cHenceforth, the wholeness of the verse where it is written, \u2018The One who leads forth their host by number.\u2019\u201d There are two degrees, MA and MI, and each of them needs to be registered, meaning mentioned. The upper one is MI, and the lower one is MA. The upper degree registers and says, \u201cThe One who leads forth their host by number,\u201d where the \u201cThe\u201d of the \u201cOne who leads forth\u201d implies to the one that is known and whom there are none others like her, MI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Similarly, \u201cThe One who brings forth bread out of the earth.\u201d The \u201cThe\u201d of the \u201cOne who brings forth\u201d implies to that one which is known, the lower degree, MA, and it is all one. Both are at the same degree, Malchut, but the upper one is MI of Malchut, and the lower one is MA of Malchut. \u201cThe One who leads forth their host by number,\u201d since the number 600,000 are the stars that stand together, eliciting hosts by their kinds, and they have no number.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Explanation: After the text implies to us in \u201cLift up your eyes on high and see who [MI] created these [ELEH],\u201d to observe the structure of the Nukva in the name Elokim\u2014which she extends from upper AVI, by which upper Ima adorns her with her decorations\u2014it fills and completes that explanation in the rest of the text, \u201cThe One who leads forth their host by number, He calls them all by name; because of the greatness of His might and the strength of His power, not one of them is missing.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It was said that they are two degrees, and each of them must be registered, mentioned in the \u201cThe.\u201d That is, the two degrees, MI and MA, must be mentioned in the Nukva.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
1. The Mochin of GAR that she receives through her ascent and clothing of the upper world\u2014when the Nukva becomes like the upper world herself\u2014is called MI, since the Hey of MA exits, and Yod enters in her stead. The Nukva is called MI, too, in the upper world, since she adorns herself with the male vessel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
2. However, at the same time, her former degree, which is MA, is not detracted from her. Rather, MA, too, should be in her as before. The degree of MI is necessary to extend the wholeness and the holy of holies to the offshoots, but begetting sons and multiplication depend only on the name MA. Hence, if any of those degrees is missing in the Nukva, she will be unable to bear.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The upper degree registers and says, \u201cThe One who leads forth their host by number,\u201d which is the degree of MI, which the Nukva inherits from the upper world. It is said about it, \u201cThe One who leads forth their host by number,\u201d since the \u201cThe\u201d of the \u201cOne who leads forth\u201d implies to the complete Mochin that she receives from upper AVI, who are the adornments in the male vessel, when the Hey exits and the Yod enters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cThe One who brings forth.\u201d The \u201cThe\u201d of \u201cThe One who brings forth\u201d implies to that one which is known and whom there is none other like her, as this is the ultimate height of the Mochin that apply in the Nukva during the 6,000 years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It was said, \u201cWho brings forth bread.\u201d This is the bottom degree, MA, and it is all one: the \u201cThe\u201d of the \u201cBrings forth bread\u201d implies to Mochin of GAR, as well, which is known, but they are Mochin of YESHSUT, where the Nukva receives from them and is known by them, the degree of MA. This is so because that degree must also be registered in the Nukva. \u201cIt is all one,\u201d meaning that both MI and MA are included in the Nukva together as one Partzuf, one above and one below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
We need not ask about what The Zohar<\/em> says, that wherever the \u201cThe\u201d is written, it is from the lower world, Malchut, that it was revealed more, while here it says that it is from the upper world, since here, too, it refers to the revealed world, the Nukva of ZA. And it calls it \u201cupper one\u201d because of the degree of MI of the Nukva, which she receives only when she rises and clothes the upper world, upper Ima. And because of it, it calls her \u201cupper one,\u201d and calls the degree of MA of the lower world, \u201clower one.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n It was said elsewhere that all the things that are from the upper, hidden world, Bina, the letter Hey is hidden from there. This refers to when the revealed world does not rise and clothe the upper world, at which time the upper world is hidden and she does not shine to the lower ones, hence he does not write it with the \u201cThe,\u201d for it is hidden. [In Hebrew, the added \u201cThe\u201d in \u201cThe One\u201d is called Hey HaYedia [Hey of knowing], implying that this Hey indicates knowing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n It was said that the number of stars that stand together is 600,000, they elicit hosts by their kinds, and they have no number. A number is the complete wholeness. A number indicates complete illumination of wholeness, and the incomplete illumination is considered having no number, or that he has no number to indicate that they are devoid of wholeness, which is called \u201ca number.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n Know that these Mochin of upper AVI, which ZA gives to the Nukva, is as it is written, \u201cThe heavens are telling of the glory of God.\u201d This is so because the heavens is ZA, the glory of God is the Nukva of ZA, and telling are the abundance of Mochin of upper AVI. These Mochin are regarded as 600,000 because the degrees of Nukva are regarded as units, those of ZA are considered tens, those of YESHSUT as hundreds, those of upper AVI as thousands, and those of AA as tens of thousands.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Also, there are two discernments in upper AVI: 1) Themselves, which are regarded as thousands; 2) The Mochin of Hochma that they receive from Rosh of AA, at which time they are considered tens of thousands, like him, though only as VAK of AA, since they clothe from the Peh of AA and below. For this reason, in that relation, they are only VAK of AA, which is tens of thousands. And VAK are sixty, hence sixty tens of thousands [600,000].<\/p>\n\n\n\n For this reason, when the Nukva rises and clothes upper AVI, she receives a whole number, which is 600,000. Sixty means VAK, since then it is still lacking the Rosh of AA. And ten thousand indicates the degrees of AA, which illuminate into AVI, within his VAK, which clothe in AVI, hence the Nukva has the number 600,000.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cThe number 600,000 are the stars that stand together, eliciting hosts by their kinds, and they have no number.\u201d It has been explained that two degrees, MI and MA, are registered in the Nukva: 1) MI in Nukva are the upper AVI, which clothe in the Nukva. By that, she is discerned as the upper world, and in that respect, she then has the number 600,000. 2) MA in the Nukva are YESHSUT, which clothe in the Nukva as in \u201cpoised for the question \u2018What?\u2019 [MA].\u201d In that respect, they are the lower world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n These two degrees, MI and MA, become one Partzuf in her: Upper AVI clothe from her Chazeh and above, and YESHSUT clothes from her Chazeh and below, thus they are one Partzuf in her. Therefore, these two degrees are discerned in the offshoots of the Nukva, too. This is so because with respect to the upper world, MI, in her, is \u201cThe One who leads forth their host by number,\u201d in the number 600,000. And with respect to the lower world, MA in her, the offshoots are regarded as having no number. It was said, \u201cEliciting hosts by their kinds, and they have no number.\u201d This means that she produces the various kinds of offshoots without a number, meaning that they do not have those Mochin of number from upper AVI, but only from YESHSUT, who are without a number.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Thus, her offshoots are incomplete because they are devoid of a number. To that, it is said, \u201cThe number 600,000 are the stars that stand together, eliciting hosts.\u201d This means that those two degrees in her\u2014with a number and without a number\u2014are in her together, connected in her in a single degree, hence they are also in her offshoots. And they are two degrees together, where on the one hand, her offshoots are considered to be of the number 600,000, and on the other hand, they are without a number. And since it is so, the one without a number is regarded as complete additions only, and not any deficiency.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The reason for it is that blessing and multiplication by seed are completely dependent upon the lower world, MA, which is regarded as having no number. This is the blessing of the seed, which is brought in the words, \u201c\u2018Now look toward the heavens, and count the stars, if you can count them.\u2019 And He said to him, \u2018So shall be your seed.\u2019\u201d Thus, the blessing of the seed comes only without a number, from the name MA. Therefore, after all the wholeness of the Mochin of a number that she obtained from the upper AVI, MI, she has an addition to the blessing from MA, without a number, for they have no number. And she, too, has a blessing, and both are included in the souls and in the offshoots.<\/p>\n\n\n\n 20) \u201cHe calls them all\u201d\u2014those 600,000, all their hosts, who have no number\u2014\u201cBy name.\u201d What is \u201cCalls them all by name\u201d? He does not call them by their names, for if this were so, it should have said, \u201cCalls them all by their names.\u201d However, when this degree does not merit the name Elokim, but is called MI, she does not bear and does not elicit what is hidden in her by their kinds, although they are all hidden in her. In other words, although the letters ELEH have already risen, they are still lacking the garment of honor of Hassadim, so then they are hidden and do not merit the name Elokim.<\/p>\n\n\n\n When He created the letters ELEH and they merited His name, they clothed in the garment of honor of Hassadim, at which time ELEH conjoin with MI, and He is called Elokim. Then, by the force of this name, He elicited them in whole. And it is written, \u201cHe calls them all by name,\u201d He calls them by His name, eliciting each and every kind to exist in whole. Then it is written, \u201cThe One who leads forth their host by number, He calls them all by name,\u201d by the whole name Elokim. It is written, \u201cSee, I have called by name Bezalel, the son of Uri, the son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah.\u201d In other words, I mention My name so that Bezalel will exist in full existence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Explanation: The great wholeness of the Mochin, the name Elokim, is on her souls and offshoots in both her degrees together, on the degree of 10,000 in her, and on the degree of all their hosts, who have no number. On both of them, there is the name, as it is written, \u201cHe calls them all by name.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n However, when this degree does not merit the name Elokim, but it is rather called MI, it does not bear and does not bring out those who are concealed in it, in their various kinds, although they were called concealed in it. When He created the letters ELEH, at which time ELEH conjoin with MI, and it is called Elokim, then, by the power of this name, He elicited them in whole, since the blessing of the seed is completely dependent upon the name MA, who have no number.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The Mochin of number are illumination of Hochma, the complete name, and all her phases are in complete wholeness. And the Mochin without number that come precisely from the name MA are the Mochin of Hassadim, and the illumination of Hochma is not received without a garment of honor of Hassadim. Prior to that, even though the letters ELEH rose to MI, it still did not merit the name Elokim. This is the meaning of \u201cWho [MI] created these [ELEH],\u201d that once He created light of Hassadim for a garment of honor for the light of Hochma in the name MI, they clothed one another and Malchut merited the upper name Elokim.<\/p>\n\n\n\n MI does not bear or elicit those who are hidden in her, by their kinds, even though they were all hidden in her. Even though the point has already come out of the thought to her place, to Malchut, and there was carving of one hidden image, the holy of holies, since Bina and ZON of the vessels and GAR of the lights returned in her, still, they are all hidden in her. Also, ELEH remain deep and hidden in the name Elokim because they cannot receive illumination of Hochma without Hassadim.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Rather, when He created ELEH, meaning after He also made a coupling on the screen of MA, the lower world, eliciting the level of Mochin of Hassadim on it, which are called \u201cwithout a number,\u201d and giving it to ELEH. Thus, He created ELEH, meaning placed the clothing of Hassadim in them, which is called \u201ccreated,\u201d and then she merits a name and is called Elokim. This is so because now that they have obtained the level of Hassadim, they can receive illumination of Hochma, which are the Mochin of the number 600,000. And then the letters conjoin and Malchut merits the upper name, Elokim. Then, through this name, he brought them out in whole.<\/p>\n\n\n\n For this reason, that wholeness of the name\u2014which is the clothing of Hochma in Hassadim\u2014is on the souls and offshoots that came out of the name Elokim, as well. It was written, \u201cHe calls them all by name,\u201d meaning that the name is named after the offshoots in that name of his. He called and elicited each and every kind so it would exist in whole.<\/p>\n\n\n\n In this name, He elicited the offshoots, both in the kind of 600,000, as well as in the kind in which there is no calculation, so they would exist in the wholeness of the name, so they would clothe each other as they are clothed in the name. It is written, \u201cSee, I have called by name.\u201d It brings evidence that the words \u201ccalling by name\u201d indicate existence and wholeness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n 21) \u201cBecause of the greatness of His might and the strength of His power, not one of them is missing.\u201d What is \u201cBecause of the greatness of His might?\u201d It is the head of the degrees, when all the desires rise in him and transcend in him in a hidden way. \u201cAnd the might of His strength\u201d is the upper world, MI, which rose in the name Elokim. \u201cNot one of them missing\u201d from those 600,000 that He elicited by that name. And because not one of the number 600,000 was missing, wherever Israel died and were punished for their sins, they were counted later and not one of the 600,000 was missing, so that all will be in one form, above and below. And as not one of the number 600,000 was missing above, not one of that number was absent below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Explanation: \u201cBecause of the greatness of His might\u201d implies to Keter of upper AVI, the head of the degrees of those Mochin, Bina of AA, which became Keter to AVI, where all the desires rise and from whom all the degrees receive. For this reason, they rise in it in a hidden way, since he is unknown Avir [air], meaning that the Yod does not come out of his Avir, as it is written, \u201cFor he desires mercy.\u201d This is why he is in utter wholeness, and this is why he is called \u201cpure air.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n Although the level of Hassadim, called air, comes out on the lower world, MA, she is still in complete wholeness because that light extends from GAR of Bina of AA, the head of all the degrees of Atzilut, which are AVI, YESHSUT, and ZON. Hence, the level of Hassadim in it is regarded as pure air, as well, as in GAR of Bina of AA.<\/p>\n\n\n\n It was written, \u201cAnd the strength of His power.\u201d This is the upper world, MI in Nukva, from which the number 600,000 was drawn. This is so because she clothes the upper world, who is upper AVI, which is why it was said \u201cNot one of them is missing\u201d\u2014of those 600,000, which He elicited by that name, since from there she obtains the Mochin of the number 600,000.<\/p>\n\n\n\n As not one was absent from the number 600,000 above, not one was absent from that number below. Because the Nukva clothed upper AVI, Ima [mother] lent her clothes to her daughter and adorned her with her decorations. By that, she became completely like upper AVI. And as the Mochin of AVI are whole in the number 600,000, not one of them is missing, the Nukva is whole in that number, not one of them is missing.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" 16) Rabbi Shimon said, \u201cHence, the heaven and their host were created in MA, the Malchut, for it is written, […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"parent":7520,"menu_order":0,"template":"","meta":{"site-sidebar-layout":"default","site-content-layout":"","ast-site-content-layout":"","site-content-style":"default","site-sidebar-style":"default","ast-global-header-display":"","ast-banner-title-visibility":"","ast-main-header-display":"","ast-hfb-above-header-display":"","ast-hfb-below-header-display":"","ast-hfb-mobile-header-display":"","site-post-title":"","ast-breadcrumbs-content":"","ast-featured-img":"","footer-sml-layout":"","theme-transparent-header-meta":"","adv-header-id-meta":"","stick-header-meta":"","header-above-stick-meta":"","header-main-stick-meta":"","header-below-stick-meta":"","astra-migrate-meta-layouts":"default","ast-page-background-enabled":"default","ast-page-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"ast-content-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}}},"topic":[28],"class_list":["post-11722","book","type-book","status-publish","hentry","topic-zohar"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\n
