214) \u201cThese are the generations of the heaven and the earth.\u201d Where it is written \u201cThese,\u201d it disqualifies those before it. The \u201cThese\u201d here disqualifies \u201cThese are the generations of Tohu [unformed], from Malchut of the quality of judgment\u200e, who is called Tohu, implied in the verse \u201cAnd the land was Tohu.\u201d We learn about \u201cThese are the generations of Tohu\u201d that the Creator creates worlds and destroys them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This is why it is written that the land was Tohu veBohu [unformed and void, chaos]. It was Tohu because He destroyed them. But the generations of ELEH [these], who is Malchut \u200ethat is sweetened in the quality of mercy, remained.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
215) Why did the Creator create worlds to begin with, to destroy them? Would it not be better to not create them? Indeed, there is a secret here. What does \u201cAnd destroys them\u201d mean? After all, the Creator does not destroy His own works. Moreover, it is written of this heaven, \u201cFor the heavens shall vanish away like smoke.\u201d Thus, it means that the Creator does and then obliterates what He has done. This is possible in regard to people, not in regard to the Creator.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
216) Rather, so is the matter: The Creator created the world and created it with the Torah. Beresheet \u200eis the Torah, of which it is written, \u201cThe Lord made me as the beginning of His way.\u201d Thus, the Torah calls herself \u201cbeginning,\u201d and with that beginning, the Torah, He created the heaven and the earth, meaning the upper heaven and earth, upper VAK in Bina, implied in Beresheet, Barah \u200eSheet [created six].<\/p>\n\n\n\n
He supported them with the Torah, for a covenant is written in Beresheet<\/em> [Genesis], since Beresheet \u200ehas the letters of Berit Esh [covenant of fire]. It is written about her, \u201cIf My covenant is not day and night, I have not placed the ordinances of heaven and earth.\u201d Thus, the heaven and earth lean on the Torah, since heaven and earth depend on keeping the covenant in Beresheet<\/em>, which is the Torah.<\/p>\n\n\n\n It is written about these heavens that were created and stand over the Torah, \u201cThe heavens are heavens for the Lord.\u201d And the earth that was created and stands on the Torah is called \u201cthe land of the living.\u201d It consists of seven lands, of which King David said, \u201cI shall walk before the Lord in the lands of the living.\u201d They are called \u201cthe lands of the living\u201d to indicate that they are from Bina, who is called \u201cliving God,\u201d since these heaven and earth are from Bina.<\/p>\n\n\n\n 217) Following them, He created the heaven and earth on Tohu, in which there is no Yesod, which is a covenant, on which to lean them, meaning lower heaven and earth, which are ZON. Before Malchut \u200ewas sweetened in Bina, Nukva was in the form of Tohu. It is written about her, \u201cAnd the land was Tohu [unformed].\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n This is why the Creator wished to give the Torah to the nations of the world, which is actual circumcision, where through the correction of circumcision they would sweeten the Malchut \u200ewith Bina, and then the Mochin, which are called Torah, would be revealed to them. But the nations did not wish to receive her, and the land remained desolate and dry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n 218) It is written, \u201cLet the water under the heavens gather unto one place.\u201d \u201cLet the water … gather\u201d is the Torah, who is called \u201cwater.\u201d \u201cUnto one place\u201d means Israel, since the souls of Israel extend from that place of which it was written, \u201cBlessed be the glory of the Lord from His place.\u201d \u201cThe glory of the Lord\u201d means lower Shechina, Malchut. \u201cFrom His place\u201d means the upper Shechina, Bina. Thus, Bina is called \u201ca place.\u201d And because their souls are from Bina, who is called \u201ca place,\u201d the name HaVaYaH \u200eis certainly on them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n It is written about them, \u201cFor the portion of the Lord is His people.\u201d It is also written, \u201cLet the water under the heaven gather unto one place,\u201d where water means Torah, and \u201cOne place\u201d means Israel, the recipients of the Torah, excluding the nations of the world, who did not wish to receive the Torah, hence the land remained desolate and dry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n 219) The Torah is the settling of the world because it was created and is sustained in her. The nations of the world, who did not receive her, remain desolate and dry. This is the meaning of the Creator creating worlds and destroying them. The world was ruined because of those who did not keep the Mitzvot \u200eof the Torah, who did not raise the Malchut \u200eto sweeten her in the quality of mercy of Bina. It is not that the Creator obliterates and destroys His own work, the heaven and earth and everything in them, as people think in the explanation of the words, that the Creator creates worlds and destroys them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Why should the Creator obliterate His own children, Israel, of whom it is written, BeHibaraam [when they were created], indicating be \u200eHey \u200eBeraam [He created them with the Hey], the Malchut \u200ethat is corrected with the quality of mercy, Bina? And because they are corrected in Bina, they are as the Creator wishes, so why should He obliterate them?<\/p>\n\n\n\n 220) Because of those among the nations of the world who converted, the small Hey of Abraham falls in the fifth millennium, which is Hey [5 in Gematria]. The fifth millennium is desolate and dry, as it is written, \u201cAnd the river shall be desolate and dry.\u201d \u201cDesolate\u201d means the ruin of the first Temple, and \u201cDry\u201d means the ruin of the second Temple.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Malchut \u200ethat is sweetened in the quality of mercy, Bina, is called \u201csmall Hey.\u201d Her root is Malchut of AK, the ten Sefirot \u200efrom the Tabur of AK downward. These ten Sefirot \u200ewere expanding through the dot of this world, and then, to be sweetened in the quality of mercy, Malchut of Malchut, the dot of this world that ends, rose to the place of Bina of Malchut \u200eand concluded Partzuf \u200eMalchut of AK there, leaving in her only two Sefirot \u200eKH and half of Bina. A Parsa [partition] was spread below them, and this Parsa ended the Atzilut. Thus, because of the sweetening of Malchut of AK in Bina, her ten Sefirot \u200ediminished into two and a half Sefirot, and she became a small Hey. This is why in every place she is, Malchut \u200ethat is sweetened in Bina is called \u201csmall Hey.\u201d She is the small Hey of Abraham, the Hey that the Creator added to his name Abram.<\/p>\n\n\n\n This is all the difference between the souls of Israel and the nations of the world. The souls of Israel come from that small Hey because the souls of Israel extend from that place of which it is written, \u201cBlessed be the glory of the Lord from His place.\u201d But the nations of the world extend from Malchut of the quality of judgment\u200e, who was not sweetened in the quality of mercy. This is why it was said that because of those who converted from among the nations of the world, the Hey of Abraham falls, since the proselytes, who originate from Malchut of the quality of judgment\u200e, drop Malchut \u200efrom the place of Bina, the small Hey of Abraham, since they evoke the quality of judgment\u200e \u200ein her, for which reason the two temples were ruined. It is as we learn, \u201cProselytes are as hard for Israel as psoriasis.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n 221) Moses wanted to admit them under the wings of the Shechina, and thought that they, too, extended from the Malchut \u200ethat was sweetened in the quality of mercy, the small Hey, and extended to them the Mochin \u200eof the small Hey of Abraham. Because of it, the proselytes caused him a descent, as it is written, \u201cGo, go down, for your people … have corrupted themselves.\u201d They caused Israel to sin with the calf, which is why the Creator told Moses, \u201cGo, go down.\u201d Because they did not receive the Mochin \u200eof the small Hey in the fear of the Yod of the name HaVaYaH, and with the love of the Hey of the name, Moses descended from his degree, which is Vav of HaVaYaH.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Moses is the queen\u2019s husband, Vav of HaVaYaH. He elevated the Hey of HaVaYaH, which is the small Hey, to the place of Bina, the first Hey of HaVaYaH, and the Vav rose to the place of Hochma, Yod of HaVaYaH. Then he extended Mochin \u200eof Yod, fear, and Mochin \u200eof Hey, love, to the bottom Hey of HaVaYaH, who stands and clothes the first Hey of HaVaYaH. But since the proselytes originate from Malchut of the quality of judgment\u200e \u200ethat is not sweetened in Bina, they could not receive the Mochin \u200eof the bottom Hey, as she was above in the place of Yod-Hey of HaVaYaH, in fear and love, she was extended below, the quality of judgment\u200e \u200ein her appeared, and all the lights departed her.<\/p>\n\n\n\n It is so because Malchut \u200eis fit to receive lights only if she clothes the place of Bina, the first Hey of HaVaYaH. And the words \u201cGo, go down\u201d were said to Moses, who is Vav, by the first Hey, Bina. During the sin, when they wished to extend the lights below, the letters Yod-Hey of HaVaYaH \u200epromptly parted, to stop the abundance from the bottom Hey. Then Bina, the first Hey, lowered her three letters ELEH and remained in VAK without a Rosh. This necessarily caused Moses, Vav of HaVaYaH, Tifferet, to also diminish into VAK without a Rosh, lowering his letters ELEH, since after the upper one is diminished, all the ones below it must be diminished with it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n 222) The letter Vav of HaVaYaH \u200edescended with Moses in order to keep him, so he is not lost among them, for in an incarnation, Moses was destined to mingle with the mixed multitude, whose souls are from the side of those of whom it is written, \u201cFor the heavens shall vanish away like smoke.\u201d These are the ones for whom Noah did not ask for mercy. It is written about them, \u201cAnd they shall be obliterated from the earth,\u201d since they were from among those of whom it is written, \u201cObliterate the memory of Amalek.\u201d Moses did not keep from them and dropped the small Hey among them. This is why he will not enter the land of Israel until he returns the Hey to her place, and this is why Moses descended from his degree, and the Vav of HaVaYaH \u200edescended with him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n This is why the Hey fell and the Vav will raise her, the Vav of Moses, since Moses\u2019 degree is Vav of HaVaYaH, and by the sin of the calf, the letters ELEH of Bina descended. Because of them, the letters ELEH of Vav of HaVaYaH \u200ealso descended to the bottom Hey, and the letters ELEH of the bottom Hey descended to the shells. Hence, Moses was sentenced to not enter the land until the bottom Hey returns to her place, to Yod-Hey, as she was prior to the sin of the calf. This is why the Vav of HaVaYaH \u200eand Moses descended from their degree, so that the Vav would raise the Hey from her fall. Because the letters ELEH of Vav of HaVaYaH, ZA, descended and fell to the bottom Hey at the time of correction, ZA\u2014the Vav\u2014will return his letters ELEH to his degree, and the bottom Hey that is attached to them will return to the degree of Vav.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Likewise, Bina, the first Hey, will return her letters ELEH\u2014which fell to the place of the Vav\u2014to her degree. Then the Vav-Hey attached to them will rise along with them to Bina, to the first Hey. Thus, Vav-Hey will return to Yod-Hey, as prior to the sin. It follows that were it not for the descent of the letters ELEH of Vav to the place of the bottom Hey, the Vav would not be able to raise the bottom Hey. Because of the descent of Vav, the Vav can later raise the bottom Hey and return her to her place, to the first Hey, by returning his letters ELEH to their place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n 223) For the small Hey, the Hey of Abraham, which is the Hey of BeHibaram [when they were created], Moses was assisted by her. It is written about him, \u201cLeading to the right of Moses, the arm of His glory.\u201d He took her out from between the shells \u200ethrough the force of the Vav and brought her with him because by the Vav returning his letters ELEH with the Nukva attached to them to his degree, he was assisted by the Nukva and rose and clothed the Yod of HaVaYaH, bringing the Nukva up with him and clothing the first Hey of HaVaYaH.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Then the bottom Hey is immediately present over the name Yod-Hey as she is in the first Hey above with the Vav, and the oath is completed, as it is written, \u201cThe hand upon the throne of the Lord: the Lord will have war with Amalek from generation to generation.\u201d Prior to it, the name is incomplete because it lacks the Vav-Hey, and the throne is incomplete because it lacks the Aleph. But now the name is completed in Vav-Hey, and the throne is completed with an Aleph.<\/p>\n\n\n\n What is \u201cFrom generation to generation\u201d? It is Moses, of whom it is written, \u201cA generation goes and a generation comes.\u201d A generation is no less than 600,000, and this is Moses, of whom we learn that one woman in Egypt gave birth to 600,000 in a single belly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cFrom generation to generation\u201d is Moses, of whom it is written, \u201cA generation goes and a generation comes,\u201d meaning an expansion of Moses in each generation, going and coming in each and every generation. Because the measure of Moses\u2019 soul is 600,000, since Moses was rewarded with Bina, Mochin of AVI that clothe VAK of AA, whose Sefirot \u200eare 10,000, since the Sefira Nukva is units, ZA is tens, YESHSUT \u200eis hundreds, AVI are thousands, and AA are 10,000. It follows that VAK, his HGT NHY are 60,000, and when each of them consists of ten, they are 600,000.<\/p>\n\n\n\n This is why it was said, \u201cOne woman in Egypt gave birth to 600,000 in a single belly.\u201d It refers to Moses because Moses is equal to 600,000. This necessarily means that there is no generation in which there is no illumination of Mochin \u200eof 600,000, meaning an expansion of Moses. It is written, \u201cThe Lord will have war with Amalek from generation to generation,\u201d as for this reason, the Mochin \u200eof 600,000 are not permanent but reincarnate in each generation, which is because the Lord has war with Amalek.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" 214) \u201cThese are the generations of the heaven and the earth.\u201d Where it is written \u201cThese,\u201d it disqualifies those before […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"parent":11756,"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-11781","book","type-book","status-publish","hentry","topic-zohar"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\n
