It is written, \u201cAnd a river comes out of Eden to water the garden.\u201d The river means the one that collects everything from the upper depth\u2014whose waters never stop\u2014to water the garden.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A river is YESHSUT, which comes out of Eden, for AA, Eden, brought him outside the Rosh. He did it in order to water the garden, so YESHSUT \u200ewould water the garden, the Nukva of ZA. Were it not for the elicitation of YESHSUT, the Nukva would have no Mochin. Also, YESHSUT \u200edoes not receive the Mochin \u200edirectly from AA but through upper AVI, who are called \u201cthe upper depth,\u201d and whose coupling never stops.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>328) That upper depth is the first Temple, AVI, in which the letters, the vessels, end in one fine trail that is hidden in them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Interpretation: They are two screens: lock and key. The Sium of AVI is in the screen of the lock, a hidden screen. This is why AVI are called \u201cthe upper depth.\u201d But YESHSUT, ZAT of Bina, end on the screen of the key, which is why they are known.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Two forces come out of that depth: the great ZON and the small ZON, as it is written, \u201cThe heaven,\u201d which are the great ZON, ending in the lock, and \u201cThe earth,\u201d which are the small ZON, ending in the key.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It does not write, \u201cheaven\u201d but \u201cThe heaven,\u201d with the letter Hey [in Hebrew]. That Hey indicates that the heaven comes out of that depth that is the most hidden, from the fine trail in AVI, the lock. The verse \u201cAnd the earth\u201d indicates that that river, YESHSUT, elicited the earth, the small ZON, because AVI elicited the heaven, the great ZON, and YESHSUT \u200eelicited the earth, the small ZON.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>329) But initially, the earth was regarded as heaven. And heaven and earth came forth, meaning ZON, as one, attached to one another in their posterior, when \u201cthe beginning of everything\u201d illuminated, when the Nukva received the Mochin \u200eof Hochma, called \u201cthe beginning of everything.\u201d Then heaven, ZA, took the Nukva and sat her in her place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the beginning of her elicitation, the Nukva she was attached to ZA, when both illuminated in one light of Hassadim. And since they were in equivalence of form without any difference from one to the other, they are regarded as attached to one another because adhesion of the spirituals is equivalence of form. The place of adhesion was in the posterior of ZA, from the Chazeh of ZA and below, where his posterior vessels are, since from the Chazeh \u200eand above of each Partzuf, it is considered anterior vessels, and from the Chazeh \u200eand below of each Partzuf, \u200eit is considered posterior vessels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Afterwards, when \u201cthe beginning of everything\u201d illuminated, when the Nukva received the Mochin of Hochma, called \u201cthe beginning of everything,\u201d it is considered that the Nukva was sawn off from ZA, that they parted from one another because now there is disparity of form between ZA and Nukva\u2014ZA illuminating in light of Hassadim, and Nukva illuminating in light of Hochma\u2014for a spiritual separation is but disparity of form.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At that time, heaven, ZA, took the Nukva and sat her in her place because she parted from him and ZA gave her a separate place, as it is written, \u201cAnd the earth.\u201d \u201cAnd the\u201d indicates the whole of the twenty-two letters, from Aleph to Tav, [the word] Et. It indicates that she parted from ZA and obtained separate vessels in and of herself, since the twenty-two letters are all the vessels of the Partzuf, for the entire wisdom is explained by the twenty-two letters, and none more are needed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>330) When the earth returned to sitting in her place and parted from the posterior \u200eof ZA, heaven, the earth was Tohu and Bohu [unformed and void], to cling as one to the heaven as before. The earth was darkened because she saw the heaven illuminating, since after she was parted from ZA through the light of Hochma \u200ethat she received from YESHSUT\u2014since YESHSUT \u200erose to Rosh AA and became Hochma, giving to the Nukva\u2014she had Hochma \u200ewithout Hassadim \u200ebecause AA is all Hochma, \u200eand ZAT cannot receive Hochma \u200ewithout Hassadim. This is why the Nukva was darkened and craved to cling to ZA from behind once more, to at least illuminate in Hassadim \u200elike ZA.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The darkness drawn in the Nukva until the upper light came out was extended to her and illuminated for her. Then she looked at the heaven, ZA, face-to-face, once again, and the earth, Nukva, was corrected and sweetened from the judgment\u200es in her. She rose anew to Ibur to AVI and obtained from them Mochin of anterior.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>331) Now&nbsp;<em>The<\/em>&nbsp;\u200e<em>Zohar<\/em>&nbsp;explains how the Nukva receives the above-mentioned upper light. He says that the light comes out on the right side because it is received by ZA, right, and the darkness remains on the left side, the Nukva. Then ZA separates the darkness from the light, so they are included in one another.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Then, by that separation, the Nukva receives the light from ZA, as it is written, \u201cAnd God separated the light from the darkness.\u201d By that separation, the day and the night made a coupling and became one day, as it is written, \u201cAnd God called the light \u2018day,\u2019 and the darkness He called \u2018night.\u2019 And there was evening and there was morning, one day.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The verse \u201cAnd God separated between the light and the darkness\u201d is not actual separation, separation between the light and the darkness. Rather, it means that the day comes from the side of the light, which is right, and the night comes from the side of the darkness, which is left. And when they came out and ruled as one, He separated them. The separation was on the part of ZA in order to look face-to-face and to cling to one another, so they are completely one. This is a separation in the order of illumination, regarded as division to love, fondness, and persistence of the world, for it is applied in a coupling to sustain the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>332) ZA is called \u201cday.\u201d This is why it was said, \u201cHe called the light \u2018day.\u2019\u201d He called the Nukva \u201cnight,\u201d as it is written, \u201cAnd God called the light \u2018day,\u2019 and the darkness He called \u2018night.\u2019\u201d What is the darkness in the verse \u201cAnd the darkness He called \u2018night\u2019\u201d? It is the darkness that gripped to the night, who has no light of herself at all. That is, the night, Nukva, has nothing of her own, and even the darkness that clings to her is not hers, but darkness that extends to her from Ima, her left side, which is considered the dot of Shuruk \u200ein YESHSUT. And although the darkness comes from the side of the fire, which is darkness, it is still not of the Nukva herself, who has nothing of her own.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But the darkness is drawn until it illuminates on the part of the imparting of the day until it receives Hassadim \u200efrom ZA, who is called \u201cday.\u201d Then the light of Hochma \u200edresses in light of Hassadim, and it follows that the day, ZA, illuminates to the night, Nukva. But the night herself does not illuminate because of the imparting of the day until the time of the end of correction, when it is written, \u201cAnd the night will illuminate as the day.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>327) \u201cIn the beginning God created.\u201d \u201cIn the beginning,\u201d as it is written, \u201cThe first of your dough,\u201d which is [&hellip;]<\/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-11797","book","type-book","status-publish","hentry","topic-zohar"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v25.7 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Kabbalah | The Correction of Face-to-Face of ZON<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"&quot;The Correction of Face-to-Face of ZON&quot;
