There is also one fifth of fifty, which is Nun [in Gematria]. The sign Mem-Gimel-Nun, which is Mem-Gimel with a long Nun is an acronym for Michael, Gabriel, Nuriel, who correspond to HGT of ZA.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Hallah [portion] is the Shechina, since where those angels are, Mem-Gimel-Nun, the fathers are, HGT, and where the fathers are, HGT, the Shechina is, since HGT is three lines and Malchut receives from them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In Malchut, \u201cand pleaded,\u201d since in her we pray, as she is called a \u201cprayer,\u201d as it is written, \u201cAnd Moses pleaded with the Lord his God.\u201d It is also written, \u201cLord, God, You have begun to show Your servant,\u201d and in Malchut, a Hallah, meaning Mitchillah [from the beginning], ancestral merit, from the words \u201cYou have begun,\u201d and in it, the ancestral merit ends for the wicked, for ancestral merit does not apply to them because they receive their reward in this world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>308. From the right side, there is Yod, Hochma, and Bina is on the left. They are Yod-Hey, which is the beginning of the name HaVaYaH, the Shechina, showing the merit of her children when she receives from the right, where there are 248 commandments to-do, which are Hassadim.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>From the side of the bottom Hey of HaVaYaH, which is to the left of Gevura, since before Malchut receives from the right, she is built from the left side, where there are 365 not to do. The complete wicked are sentenced there, for whom ancestral merit has ended, and they have no Hassadim from HGT, called \u201cfathers.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The name HaVaYaH is overturned for them there into Hey-Vav-Hey-Yod, meaning in reverse, implying judgment. We learned from wicked Haman that he said, \u201cAll this is not worthwhile for me,\u201d that the ends of the words of the verse, \u201cthis is not worthwhile for me,\u201d imply Hey-Vav-Hey-Yod, indicating that it points to judgments.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>307. \u201cOf the first of your dough, a portion, you shall make a donation.\u201d This commandment is to
