35) The story of the heifer is adjacent to the death of Miriam. Since the Din<\/em> [judgment] was executed on this heifer to purify the impure, a Din<\/em> was executed on Miriam to purify the world because the death of righteous ones atones for the world, and she departed from the world. When Miriam departed, the well that walked with Israel in the desert departed, and the well of everything, Malchut<\/em>, departed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

36) \u201cAnd you, son of man, take up a lamentation\u201d over the virgin of Israel, Malchut<\/em>. Everything was broken because of her, for because of her, the right of ZA<\/em> broke after her, meaning the departure of the Hesed<\/em> due to the separation of Malchut<\/em>, which Hesed<\/em> would bring close to the body, ZA<\/em>. And the body, the sun, ZA<\/em>, who gives to Malchut<\/em>, darkened because of her, for he had none for whom to bestow, as it is written, \u201cSave Your right and answer me,\u201d meaning He would save the right hand that broke due to the separation of Malchut<\/em>. Likewise with the body, it is written, \u201cI will clothe the heaven with gloom,\u201d for the sun, ZA<\/em>, has darkened because of her. Similarly, \u201cAnd Miriam died there,\u201d indicating the departure of Malchut<\/em>. Thus, the right weakened and ZA<\/em> darkened.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

37) \u201cAnd there was no water for the congregation\u201d because the well of above\u2014Malchut<\/em>\u2014and that of below\u2014Miriam\u2014had departed. Afterwards, the right broke, as it is written, \u201cAnd Aaron was gathered onto his people,\u201d which is the Hesed<\/em>, right. Then the sun darkened, as it is written, \u201cAnd die in the mountain on which you are ascending, and be gathered to your people.\u201d Moses was a Merkava<\/em> [structure\/chariot] for ZA<\/em>, who is called \u201csun.\u201d Thus, the right arm broke and the body, the sun, darkened.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

38) There has never been a generation in the world such as the generation when Moses, Aaron, and Miriam lived in the world. There was also none like the one in the days of Solomon because in the days of Solomon, the moon governed, for that generation was receiving from the moon, Malchut<\/em>, and the sun was gathered, meaning that they were not receiving from ZA<\/em>, who is called \u201csun.\u201d In Moses\u2019 days, the moon was gathered, meaning that they were not receiving from Malchut<\/em>, and the sun governed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As the sun and the moon do not govern at the same time, since the moon is not seen during the day, and the sun is not seen during the night, when ZA<\/em> and Malchut<\/em>, sun and moon, are connected, there is still a difference in their governance. When ZA<\/em> governs, the governance of the Nukva<\/em> is not apparent. When the Nukva<\/em> governs, the governance of ZA<\/em> is not apparent. Hence, since Moses is ZA<\/em>, his contemporaries were receiving from ZA<\/em>. Solomon was the moon, Malchut<\/em>. His contemporaries were receiving from the moon. Yet, in both, there certainly was a Zivug<\/em> of ZA<\/em> and Malchut<\/em>, but this concerns only the governance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

39) There were three siblings, Moses, Aaron, and Miriam, as it is written, \u201cAnd I shall send before you Moses, Aaron, and Miriam.\u201d Miriam is the moon, Malchut<\/em>, Moses is the sun, ZA<\/em>, and Aaron is the right arm, Hesed<\/em>. Hur is the left arm, Gevura<\/em>, and some say that Nahshon, son of Aminadav, was the left arm. First, Miriam died and the moon departed, and the well departed. Then the right arm broke, which always brings the moon, Malchut<\/em>, closer in brotherhood and joy. This is why it is written, \u201cAnd Miriam the prophetess, the sister of Aaron, took.\u201d Aaron, the arm, brings her closer in unity and brotherhood with the body, ZA<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

40) Then the sun was gathered and darkened, as it is written, \u201cAnd you also be gathered to your people.\u201d Happy is the generation when Moses, Aaron, and Miriam were in the world. In Solomon\u2019s days, the moon, Malchut<\/em>, was governing in her corrections, in her fullest, and was seen in the world. Solomon existed in the wisdom [Hochma<\/em>] of her light, since the disclosure of the light of Hochma<\/em> is only in Malchut<\/em>, and he governed in the world. When the moon descended for his iniquities, she was blemished day by day until she was on the west corner, the place of Malchut<\/em> herself, and not more. At that time, only one tribe was given to Solomon\u2019s son, and the rest to Jeroboam. Happy is Moses, the faithful prophet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

41) \u201cAnd the sun rose and the sun set, and strives to its place; it rises there.\u201d \u201cAnd the sun rose,\u201d when Israel went out of Egypt, when the sun, Moses, illuminated, and not the moon, Malchut<\/em>. \u201cAnd strives to its place,\u201d for it is written, \u201cAnd the sun set,\u201d since Moses was gathered in the desert with the rest of the dead of the desert. When the sun set, he was gathered to his place to illuminate to the moon. \u201cStrives… it rises there,\u201d for although he was gathered, he shines there, since the moon illuminates only from the light of the sun. It is also written, \u201cYou will lay with your fathers and … rise.\u201d Even though you will be gathered, you will rise to illuminate to the moon. This is Joshua, for Joshua was a Merkava<\/em> to the Malchut<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

42) It is written about Joshua, \u201cWhat profit does man have from all his toil at which he toils under the sun?\u201d Joshua was trying to bequeath the land of Israel, Malchut<\/em>, and he was not rewarded with complementing the moon, Malchut<\/em>, for he toiled in Israel under the sun, under Moses, who is ZA<\/em>, who is called \u201csun.\u201d Woe unto that shame; woe unto that disgrace. Because he worked under Moses and did not take his actual place\u2014which is a sun, but under the sun, not having his own light, but from the light of the sun that illuminated for him\u2014what profit did he have, since he complemented neither the sun nor the moon? And because he did not complement himself in the degree of sun, he could not complement the moon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

43) Wherever Moses said, \u201cUnder the sun,\u201d he was speaking of his own degree, Malchut<\/em>. \u201cI saw under the sun,\u201d \u201cAnd I also saw under the sun,\u201d \u201cI again saw under the sun,\u201d and so are all of them, since he was speaking from his own degree.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

44) One who takes the potion of death by himself, Malchut<\/em> without ZA<\/em>, it is written about him, \u201cFrom all his toil at which he toils under the sun.\u201d \u201cUnder the sun\u201d is the moon, Malchut<\/em>. One who grips the moon without the sun, his toil is certainly under the sun. This is the first sin in the world, the sin of tree of knowledge\u2014extending the light of Hochma<\/em> in Malchut<\/em> from above downward, thus separating her from her husband, ZA<\/em>, and taking only the Malchut<\/em>. It is written about it, \u201cWhat profit does man have from all his toil,\u201d which is written about Adam HaRishon<\/em>, and for all who follow him, who sin in this place<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
