14) \u201cHow great is Your goodness, which You have hidden for those who fear You, which You have wrought for those who take refuge in You.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
15) The upper degree, the upper world, Bina, is called MI. The lower degree, the lower world, Malchut, is called MA. It is written, \u201cWhat [Heb: MA] does the Lord your God ask of you.\u201d Do not pronounce it MA [what] but Me’ah [100], since all the upper degrees in their completeness, which are fifty, are in Malchut. This is why it is called 100 since her 50, which are KHB TM, each of which comprises 10, and Bina\u2019s 50 are 100. For this reason, Bina is called MI, which are 50, and Malchut is MA, which is 100, since she also includes within it Bina\u2019s 50.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
16) Another reason why Malchut is called MA: Even though the upper extension of Hochma is extended through the upper degrees, Bina and ZA, she does not appear until she is completed in Malchut, which is the place of the end of all the degrees. She is the end of the extension of everything, and she stands disclosed in illumination of Hochma. And even though she is more disclosed than all, she is poised for the question, MA [what], meaning \u201cWhat did you see?\u201d \u201cWhat did you know?\u201d as it is written, \u201cSince you did not see any image.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
17) This is the reason why it is written, \u201cHow great is Your goodness.\u201d MA [Heb: \u201chow\u201d or \u201cwhat\u201d] is Malchut, \u201cGreat is Your goodness\u201d is Yesod of ZA. It is called \u201cgreat goodness,\u201d as it is written, \u201cAnd the great goodness for the house of Israel.\u201d This is so because the first light that is included in Yesod is only called \u201cgood.\u201d Here, male and female are incorporated, for the female, who is called MA since the Hochma appeared in her, is included here, as well, as it is written, \u201cHow [MA] great is Your goodness.\u201d This is why it is written, \u201cGreat,\u201d since \u201cgreat\u201d indicates illumination of Hochma.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cWhich You have concealed,\u201d since this light is hidden, just as the first light was concealed and was kept for the righteous. \u201cWhich You have wrought,\u201d since in Malchut, called MA after the inclusion of Bina in her, is the craftsmanship of everything: the craftsmanship of the whole world, the craftsmanship of souls and spirits. Were it not for this craftsmanship of inclusion of Bina in Malchut, Mochin in ZON would not have come out, as well as the three worlds BYA.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
18) In the inclusion of Bina in Malchut, the Creator made the craftsmanship of the world. It is written, \u201cIn the beginning God [Elokim] created the heaven and the earth.\u201d By that, the tabernacle was made and built in the form of the world above, Bina, and in the form of the lower world, Malchut. It is written, \u201cThey shall take a donation for Me.\u201d \u201cA donation for Me\u201d are two degrees, Bina and Malchut, which are one, as they conjoin together.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
