14) Moses and Aaron delivered themselves to death, as it is written, \u201cAnd they fell upon their faces, and said, \u2018O God, the God of the spirits.\u2019\u201d It writes \u201cspirits\u201d without the Vav<\/em> [in Hebrew] because of the tree of death, Malchut<\/em>. In every place, falling on one\u2019s face is to that side. This is why it is written, \u201cO God, the God.\u201d God, as in, \u201cA God who has indignation every day,\u201d meaning Malchut<\/em>. \u201cGod of the spirits\u201d means a place where the souls of the world are bundled, where all the souls rise and from which they come. It is the Malchut<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

15) \u201cHear my words, you wise men, and give ear unto me, you that have knowledge.\u201d Elihu said this verse. Come and see what is written, \u201cAgainst his three friends was his wrath kindled, because they had found no answer.\u201d They were saying things but Job was not comforted by them. This teaches us that one who comes to comfort one who is mourning should first establish things that will be suitable for comforting him. Job\u2019s friends spoke the truth, but not to comfort him, since what is required are things for which the mourner will be grateful, and then he will accept the sentence and will thank the Holy King for it. What does it say? \u201cNow Elihu had waited to speak unto Job\u201d because afterwards he was grateful to the Creator and assumed the judgment from heaven.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

16) \u201cTherefore, listen to me, you men of heart: Far be it from God to do wickedness; and from the Almighty to do wrong.\u201d \u201cTherefore … men of heart,\u201d who are complete with everything and can discern things. \u201cFar be it from God to do wickedness.\u201d And it is written, \u201cA God who has indignation every day,\u201d which is Malchut<\/em>, called \u201cGod.\u201d \u201cAnd from the Almighty to do wrong.\u201d One is close to the other since \u201cAlmighty,\u201d Yesod<\/em>, is close to \u201cGod,\u201d Malchut<\/em>. In God Almighty, God is Malchut<\/em> and Almighty is Yesod<\/em>. \u201cFor He pays a man according to his work.\u201d If a person walks in this world and does deeds, and sins before his Master, that deed hangs on him and pays his dues, as it is written, \u201cFor He pays a man according to his work,\u201d meaning that that deed that he did will pay him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

17) And if he pays attention to Him, since his wish is to repent before his Master, then \u201cGod, the God of the spirits\u201d will collect his spirit and soul unto Him, to form it in the bundle of life, and will not leave his soul outside to be sentenced by another Din<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

18) These are the hidden Dinim<\/em> of the Creator. \u201cHe pays a man according to his work,\u201d to be judged by his judgment, by those deeds that a man does in this world and elevates him to be sentenced according to his actions, and he is lost from the world. It is written after him, \u201cWho gave Him a charge over the earth? Or who has disposed the whole world?\u201d \u201cWho gave Him a charge over the earth\u201d is He who commanded his brother over him, who redeems him. \u201cOr who has disposed the whole world\u201d means his brother builds a house, meaning marries his wife and builds a lasting building, the correction of the world, and the settling of the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is written after him, \u201cAnd if he pays attention to Him,\u201d since that man who commanded him to redeem him and to build a structure should aim the heart and desire to the dead, to establish a name for him. Thus, a man who comes to a brother\u2019s wife because of the beauty and his own desire will not build a lasting building, for his heart and will are not aiming for the dead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

19) This is why it is written, \u201cAnd if he pays attention to Him,\u201d meaning to aim the heart\u2019s desire to the dead, then he will gather his spirit and soul unto him, for he is drawn to him, to be built in this world. Afterwards, it writes, \u201cAll flesh shall perish together, and man shall return unto dust.\u201d \u201cAll flesh shall perish together,\u201d meaning that body will rot in the dust, and all the flesh. Afterwards, \u201cAnd man shall return unto dust,\u201d meaning there will be renewal of the structure as before and the dust will return for the structure of another body, as in the beginning. This is why the spirit and the soul are in the hands of the Creator and He has mercy on people so they will not be lost from this world and from the other world. This is why it is written, \u201cO God, the God of the spirits of all flesh.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
