78. \u201cHear O Israel, the Lord our God, the Lord is one.\u201d This is one unification. \u201cBlessed be the name of His kingship forever and ever\u201d is another unification, so His name, Malchut that is called \u201cname,\u201d will be one. It is written, \u201cThe Lord, He is the God,\u201d that HaVaYaH, ZA, is Malchut that is called Elokim [God]. This is so when ZA and Malchut are in one unification, and for this reason, \u201cHear O Israel\u201d is HaVaYaH, and \u201cBlessed by the name of His kingship forever and ever\u201d is the God.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
79. But the unification of Shema [hear] and \u201cBlessed be the name of His kingship forever and ever\u201d is as it is written, \u201cThe Lord is one and His name one,\u201d which is not tantamount to the verse \u201cThe Lord, He is the God.\u201d Had it been written, \u201cThe Lord is one and His name is one,\u201d it would have been tantamount to the verse, \u201cThe Lord, He is the God,\u201d but it is written, \u201cThe Lord is one and His name one.\u201d Thus, it should have said something like this: \u201cThe Lord, He is the God, He,\u201d and then it would have been tantamount to the verse \u201cThe Lord is one and His name one.\u201d Since it is not written so, but rather \u201cThe Lord, He is the God,\u201d it is not tantamount to the verse \u201cThe Lord is one and His name one.\u201d So how was it said that the unification of Shema and \u201cBlessed be the name of His kingship forever and ever,\u201d which are two unifications, similar to \u201cThe Lord is one and His name one,\u201d is tantamount to \u201cThe Lord, He is the God\u201d?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
80. Rather, it is all one, the unifications of Shema and \u201cBlessed be the name of His kingship forever and ever,\u201d which is \u201cthe Lord is one,\u201d in the Shema, and \u201cand His name one,\u201d in \u201cBlessed be the name of His kingship forever and ever,\u201d are one with the verse, \u201cThe Lord, He is the God.\u201d This is so because when these two names unite\u2014HaVaYaH, which is ZA, with God, which is Malchut, HaVaYaH in one unification, meaning in the unification \u201cHear O Israel\u201d and God in one unification, meaning in the unification \u201cBlessed be the name of His kingship forever and ever\u201d\u2014then these two names become one and are incorporated in one another, and everything becomes one complete name, in one unification.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
At that time, it is written, \u201cThe Lord, He is the God,\u201d since then, everything is incorporated in each other to be one. However, before each of them is unified each within itself, they are not incorporated in each other for all to be one, in a way that \u201cThe Lord is one and His name one\u201d is certainly not tantamount to \u201cThe Lord, He is the God.\u201d Rather, \u201cThe Lord, He is the God\u201d is a result of \u201cThe Lord is one and His name one.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
81. The whole of the Torah, the written Torah and the oral Torah together, are certainly so. The Torah is the written Torah and the oral Torah. The written Torah is HaVaYaH, ZA, and the oral Torah is the God, Malchut. Because the Torah is the holy name, she is called so, one is called HaVaYaH, and one is the God.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
82. The written Torah and the oral Torah, one is the general and one is the particular. The written Torah is the general, ZA, and the oral Torah is the particular, Malchut. The general needs the particular, and the particular needs the general, and there is no wholeness to one without the other until the two connect and unite with one another, and everything becomes one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
For this reason, the whole of the Torah is the whole of above, ZA, and of below, Malchut, since that name is above, and that name is below. One is the written Torah, the upper world, ZA, and one is the oral Torah, the bottom world, Malchut. This is why it is written, \u201cTo you it was shown, that you might know that the Lord, He is the God,\u201d that the two of them are one. This is the whole of everything, of all the worlds. A man must know all this in this world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
83. Where are the commandments of the Torah in this rule? If the Lord is the God, is He the whole of everything? HaVaYaH [the Lord] is \u201cremember\u201d; God is \u201ckeep.\u201d And all the commandments of the Torah are included in \u201cremember\u201d and in \u201ckeep.\u201d \u201cRemember\u201d contains the 248 commandments to-do, and \u201ckeep\u201d contains the 365 commandments not-to-do, and it is all one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
84. The evening prayer is certainly obligatory, since the evening Shema reading is obligatory, since the Creator is unified at night in the Shema reading, as He is unified in the day. The quality of night is incorporated in the day, and the quality of day is incorporated in the night, and the unification is done. One who says it is optional, it is because the prayer that is established corresponding to the organs and the fats that are consumed and burned at night, which are not mandatory, since the morning prayer and the afternoon prayer correspond to the two perpetuals, which are obligatory, and the evening prayer corresponding to the organs and the fats, which are optional.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
85. \u201cAnd you shall love the Lord your God.\u201d If everything is included in this unification of Hear O Israel, right and left, why is it written afterwards, \u201cAnd you shall love,\u201d which is right, and also, \u201cAnd it shall come to pass that if you earnestly listen,\u201d which is left? After all, they were already included in the unification of the Shema reading! However, the Shema reading is the general, when right and left of Daat were incorporated in one whole, in HaVaYaH. Here, it is in the particular, for first, it is written, \u201cAnd you shall love,\u201d in itself, which is Hesed, and then it is written, \u201cAnd it shall come to pass that if you earnestly listen,\u201d in itself, which is Gevura, and this is how it should be.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
86. The unification of the Shema reading is like the unification of the head Tefillin and the hand Tefillin. There are four portions in the head Tefillin, and here, in the Shema reading, there are three names: The Lord our God, the Lord. There, four portions, where each is in itself, and here, only three names. What is the difference between one and the other?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
