And anyone who sanctifies, the Creator sanctifies him, as it is written, \u201cSanctify yourselves therefore, and be holy.\u201d A person who sanctifies himself from below is sanctified from above. And when one sanctifies with the sanctity of his Master, his is clothed with a holy soul, which is the inheritance of the Creator and the assembly of Israel, for the soul is an offspring of&nbsp;<em>ZON<\/em>.

But did Solomon and all the craftsmen who were there not build it?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>324) Indeed, so it is, as it is written, \u201cThe lamp shall be made of one piece.\u201d If it is one piece, which means that the craftsmen were beating the bar with a sledge-hammer, then what is, \u201cShall be made\u201d? It means it was made by itself. Of course, everything at the Temple was made by itself, by token and a miracle. When the craftsmen began to work, the work taught the craftsmen who to do it, which they did not know how to do prior to beginning it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>325) What is the reason? It is because the blessing of the Creator was on them. This is why it is written, \u201cWhile it was being built,\u201d for it was built by itself, since it taught the craftsmen the learning, how to begin to do it, and the registration of that work would literally be going out of their eyes, and they would look at that registration and work until the entire house was built.<a><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Making the Sanctuary<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>Pekudei<\/em>&nbsp;[Accounts]<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>15) When the Creator said unto Moses, \u201cMake the Tabernacle,\u201d Moses was bewildered; he did not know what to do until the Creator vividly showed him, as it is written, \u201cAnd see and make them after their pattern, which is being shown to you in the mountain.\u201d \u201cIn their pattern\u201d means that the Creator showed Moses everything in its higher, spiritual shape, and each of the spiritual shapes above was making its shape similar to the fictitious shape that was made below, on earth.

And Moses saw each of them in its corrected form, as one who sees within a crystal lamp, within a mirror that shows all the forms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And when Moses gazed upon them, he found them perplexing, since there, in&nbsp;<em>Malchut<\/em>, everything stood in its spiritual form, but each form equalized its shape to the fictitious shape in this world, in the Tabernacle. It turns out that two forms were apparent: the spiritual one and the fictitious one. This is why Moses was bewildered; he did not know which of them to grasp. The Creator told him, \u201cYou with your signs, and I with Mine,\u201d that Moses would perceive the fictitious signs in every thing and the Creator perceives the spiritual signs of every thing, and then the spiritual form is placed over the fictitious form. Then Moses was settled in all the work of the Tabernacle.<a><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>The Donkey Driver<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>Teruma<\/em>&nbsp;[Donation]<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>536) Rabbi Yosi and Rabbi Hiya were walking along the way and a donkey driver was leading the donkeys behind them. Rabbi Yosi said to Rabbi Hiya, \u201cWe should engage and exert in words of Torah because the Creator is walking ahead of us, hence it is time to make corrections for Him, so He will be with us on this way.\u201d A donkey driver stings the donkeys with a piece of wood to make them walk faster.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>537) Rabbi Hiya started and said, \u201cIt is time to do for the Lord; they have broken Your law.\u201d Anytime when the Torah exists in the world and people engage in it, the Creator is seemingly happy with His works, there is joy in all the worlds, and heaven and earth maintain their existence. Moreover, the Creator gathers His entire household and tells them, \u201cSee the holy people that I have in the land, the Torah is crowned because of them, see My works, of whom you have said, \u2018What is man, that I should remember him?\u2019\u201d And they, when they see their Master\u2019s joy, they promptly start and say, \u201cAnd who is as Your people, as Israel, one nation in the land.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>538) And when Israel idle away from the Torah, His might seemingly fades, as it is written, \u201cYou neglected the Rock who begot you,\u201d and then it is written, \u201cAnd all the host of heaven stand.\u201d Hence, it is time to do for the Lord. Those righteous that remained should muster their strength and do good deeds so that the Creator will be strengthened with the righteous and with His camps and armies, since they have broken Your law and the people do not engage in it properly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>539) The donkey driver, who was leading the donkeys behind them, told them, \u201cPlease, I would like to know one question.\u201d Rabbi Yosi replied, \u201cCertainly, the road is set before us, ask your question.\u201d He said, \u201cThis verse, had it said, \u2018It should be done\u2019 or \u2018It was done,\u2019 I would say so. What is \u2018Time\u2019? And also, it is written, \u2018To do for the Lord.\u2019 It should have said, \u2018Before the Lord.\u2019 What is \u2018To do for the Lord\u2019?\u201d Rabbi Yosi said, \u201cThe road is set before us in several ways: One, that we were two and now we are three, for Divinity has been included with us. One, that I thought you were as a dry tree, while you are as fresh as an olive. And one, that you asked very well, and since you have begun to speak, do speak.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>540) He started and said, \u201cTime to do for the Lord,\u201d since there is a time and there is a time\u2014a time to love and a time to hate. A time above, faith,&nbsp;<em>Malchut<\/em>, is called \u2018Time.\u2019 This is called \u2018A time of good will,\u2019 and it means that man must always love the Creator, as it is written, \u2018And you shall love the Lord your God.\u2019 About that, the time to love, it is a time, meaning that one must love.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>541) \u201cAnd there is another time, which is another god, which one must hate and not follow him with his heart. Hence, it is a time to hate. And this is why it is written, \u2018Tell your brother Aaron that he shall not enter at any time into the holy place.\u2019<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>542) \u201cWhen Israel engage in Torah and in the&nbsp;<em>Mitzvot&nbsp;<\/em>[commandments] of the Torah, at that time the holy faith,&nbsp;<em>Malchut<\/em>, is corrected in her corrections and is fully adorned as it should be. And when Israel do not engage in Torah, at that time it is seemingly not corrected and is incomplete, and not in the light. Then it is time to do for the Lord.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>543) \u201cWhat is \u2018To do for the Lord\u2019? It is written, \u2018That God has created to do.\u2019 What is \u2018To do\u2019? It means that bodies of demons remained, which were not done because the day has been sanctified, and they remained to do because they are spirits without bodies. Here, too, it is time to do, the time remained without correction and without wholeness because they have broken Your law, for Israel have been idling away from words of Torah, for that time is so, either ascending or descending for Israel. If they engage in Torah, it ascends. If they idle away from the Torah, it descends.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>544) Rabbi Yosi said, \u201cIt is indeed beneath you to lead the donkeys behind us. Happy is this road, for we have been rewarded with hearing this. Happy is the generation that Rabbi Shimon is inside it, that wisdom is found even among the mountains.\u201d Rabbi Yosi and Rabbi Hiya came down from their donkeys and the three of them walked along the way.<a><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>By What One Assumes in One\u2019s Heart<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>VaYera<\/em>&nbsp;[The Lord Appeared]<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>153) \u201cHer husband is known in the gates\u201d is the Creator, who is known and attained by what each assumes in his heart, to the extent that he can attain by the spirit of the wisdom. Thus, according to that which one assumes in one\u2019s heart, He is known in his heart. This is why it is written, \u201cKnown in the gates,\u201d in those measures [the same word as \u201cgates\u201d in Hebrew] that each assumes in his heart. But it should be properly known that there is no one who can attain and know Him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>154) \u201cHer husband is known in the gates.\u201d What are gates? It is written, \u201cLift up your heads, O gates.\u201d By these gates, which are high degrees, by them is the Creator known.

If one wishes for the Holy King to shine for him in that world and give him a share in the next world, he should engage in including his deeds in the right in this world, and that all his actions will be for the Creator.<a><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>248 Organs of the Soul<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>Shoftim<\/em>&nbsp;[Judges]<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>8) Happy is he who grips to the tree of life,&nbsp;<em>ZA<\/em>, with his body and with his organs, which is a candle.

And&nbsp;<em>SAM<\/em>&nbsp;and the serpent and all his appointees, which are thorns, grip to the man\u2019s body and burn, while the branches of the bush, its fruits, and the leaves do not burn.

And if his words are open before people, they are not with love.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>73) So is the Creator. When He rebukes a person, He rebukes him with love in everything. First, He strikes him in his body, from within. If he repents, good. If not, He strikes him under his clothes. And these are called \u201cPangs of love.\u201d If he repents, good.

It is a prayer that the children of Israel will not perish in the exile. This is because every prayer in favor of Divinity is received in full. And when Israel are in exile, Divinity is with them. This is why the prayer is regarded as being in favor of Divinity and is accepted in full.<a><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>I dwell among My Own People<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>VaYetze<\/em>&nbsp;[Jacob Went Out]<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>284) Wherever a person prays his prayer, he should incorporate himself in the public, in the manifold public, as it is written about Shunammite when Elisha told her, \u201cWould you be spoken for to the king or to the captain of the army?\u201d \u201cWould you be spoken for to the king,\u201d since that day was the festival of the first day of the year, and the day when&nbsp;<em>Malchut&nbsp;<\/em>of the firmament rules and sentences the world. At that time, the Creator is called \u201cThe king of the sentence,\u201d and this is why he told her, \u201cWould you be spoken for to the king,\u201d since he called the Creator \u201cKing.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>285) And she said, \u201cI dwell among my own people.\u201d In other words, she said, \u201cI have no wish to be mentioned above, but to put my head among the masses and not leave the public.\u201d Similarly, man should be included in the public and not stand out as unique, so the slanderers will not look at him and mention his sins.<a><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Quantity and Quality<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>Teruma<\/em>&nbsp;[Donation]<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>694) When the Creator comes to the house of gathering and the whole people come together, pray, thank, and praise the Creator, it is the glory of the King, for the Creator is established with beauty and correction to rise up to&nbsp;<em>Aba<\/em>&nbsp;and&nbsp;<em>Ima<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>695) When the Creator comes to the house of gathering early and the people did not come to pray and to praise the Creator, the whole of the governance above and all those upper appointees and camps break from that elevation of theirs, which they correct in the corrections of the King, the Creator.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>696) The reason why they break from their elevation is that when Israel below establish their prayers and litanies, and praise the high King, all those upper camps praise and become corrected in the sacred correction, since all the upper camps are friends with Israel below, to praise the Creator together so that the rising of the Creator will be above and below at the same time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>697) And when the angels come to be friends with Israel, to praise the Creator together, and Israel below do not come to establish their prayers and litanies, and to praise their Master, all the holy camps in the upper government break from their corrections. It is so because they do not rise in an ascension, since they cannot praise their Master because the praises of the Creator must be above and below together, upper and lower at the same time. This is why it was said, \u201cDeficiency of thinness,\u201d and not \u201cDeficient of a king,\u201d as it concerns only the camps of angels, not the King Himself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>698) And even though not many came to the house of gathering, but only ten, the upper camps come into these ten, to be friends with them and to praise the Creator, since all the King\u2019s corrections are in ten. Hence, ten are enough, if they are not more.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Whatever You Find that You Have the Power to Do, Do Pinhas 134) \u201cWhatever you find that you have
