253) It is written, \u201cA psalm of David while he was in the Judea Desert.\u201d What is the difference from all the other praises? It does not say in which place King David praised them, and here it says, \u201cWhile he was in the Judea Desert.\u201d But not only this, for there is also the verse, \u201cWhen he changed his demeanor before Abimelech,\u201d and the verse, \u201cWhen the Ziphites came,\u201d and so are all of them. This is to show David\u2019s merit to all the people in the world, that even though he was afflicted and was being chased, he exerted to say psalms and praises to the Creator.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
254) And even though he would speak in the holy spirit, the holy spirit was not on him until he tried to have it on him. Similarly, in every place, there is no holy spirit from above before a person awakens it from below. And although David was being pursued and afflicted, he did not let the psalms and praises out of his mouth, nor cease to praise his Master for everything.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
255) \u201cA psalm of David\u201d indicates that first the spirit of holiness is on him, and then he said the psalm. \u201cFor David, a psalm\u201d indicates that first he said the psalm, then the spirit of holiness was over him. Here the spirit of holiness was on him first, since he said, \u201cA psalm of David.\u201d Does that mean that it was without effort? Rather, had he not aimed himself first, the spirit of holiness would not have been on him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
256) A psalm is the spirit of holiness, which is called a \u201cpsalm.\u201d It is called so because Malchut, which is the spirit of holiness, always praises the upper King, ZA, for at all times, she praises and sings, and does not keep still. When David came and found the Guf of Malchut\u2014her VAK\u2014properly corrected, and she was on him, he revealed in this world to praise and to sing to the King, to ZA. It is all so that this world will be corrected in similarity with above.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
257) \u201cTo David,\u201d a whole man in his corrections, a corrected, a righteous man. David never changed. He was the same in times of contentment and in times of affliction. While he was in the Judea Desert is the praise of David, that although he was afflicted, although he was being pursued, he praised and sang for the Creator, and said a praise that He is great and honorable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
258) The merit of the praise is as it is written, \u201cGod, You are my God; I shall seek You.\u201d Simply God is the God of everything. Since he said, \u201cGod,\u201d why did he say \u201cMy God\u201d? It indicates his degree, for there are three degrees here: \u201cGod,\u201d \u201cMy God,\u201d \u201cYou.\u201d And although they are three names, they are one degree: the living God. God is above in Bina, who is called \u201cthe living God.\u201d \u201cMy God\u201d is from the end of the heavens to the end of the heavens, ZA. \u201cYou\u201d is His degree, Malchut. Although it is all one and rises in one name in the literal meaning of the words, they still imply three degrees.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
259) \u201cI shall seek You\u201d means that he established the light that shines in blackness, the light of Hochma that is governed by the left at the point of Shuruk, which cannot shine for lack of Hassadim and is therefore called \u201cblack light.\u201d It is so because the light that is in blackness does not illuminate until it is corrected below, meaning MAN is raised and Hassadim are extended for Hochma to clothe in, and then she illuminates. One who corrects this black light, even though it is black, is rewarded with the white light that shines, which is the light of the illuminating mirror, ZA. This is a man who is rewarded with the next world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
260) \u201cThose who seek Me shall find Me.\u201d \u201cThose who seek Me\u201d are those who correct the light of those who seek Me, the black light. \u201cShall find Me.\u201d It does not write, \u201cShall find Me,\u201d but \u201cShall find Me\u201d [with a double Nun in the \u201cFind Me\u201d in Hebrew]. This indicates that he is rewarded with two lights, the black light of blackness, the Hochma in Malchut, which does not illuminate for lack of Hassadim, and the white light, which shines, which is ZA that clothes the Hochma in Malchut with Hassadim, and she illuminates. It follows that he has been rewarded with a mirror that does not shine, the Malchut, and with the illuminating mirror, ZA, and this is the meaning of \u201cShall find Me\u201d [with a double Nun], two lights. This is why David said, \u201cI shall seek You,\u201d since he established the black light of blackness, Malchut, so that the white light that illuminates, ZA, will shine upon him, meaning that the Hochma in Malchut will clothe in Hassadim of ZA and then Malchut will be corrected and illuminating.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
261) \u201cMy soul thirsts for You; my flesh yearns for You,\u201d as one who is hungry for food and thirsty to drink. \u201cIn a dry and weary land where there is no water.\u201d This is Malchut that is dominated by the left, which is black light, for lack of Hassadim, water. At that time, she is a desert and not a habitable place. She is not a holy place, and is therefore regarded as a place without water.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This is why David corrected her and extended for her water from ZA. It is written, \u201cThus I have seen You in the sanctuary, to see Your power and Your glory,\u201d since the hunger and thirst cause the raising of MAN and the extension of Hassadim from ZA to clothe Malchut\u2019s black light, and then she returns to Kedusha and shines.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
