71. Moreover, she was the king\u2019s daughter, who is the Shechina, Yod on Hey-Vav-Hey that are included in the patriarchs. The first Hey is included in Abraham, Hesed, the bottom Hey in Isaac, Gevura. The Vav is included in Jacob, Tifferet, and the Yod was their Rosh [head\/top], as it is written, \u201cThe crown has fallen from our head.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There is an allegory about a king who had a crown on his head, and a handsome tree before him. A bad rumor came to him, and he threw the crown from his head. And the Shechina being the Yod on the Hey-Vav-Hey returned to being Hey-Vav-Hey-Yod, where the Yod is below. This is why David said, \u201cThe stone that the builders loathed shall become the corner-stone. This was from the Lord.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When ZA and Malchut are in Gadlut [greatness\/adulthood], ZA is in the light of Hassadim and Malchut is in light of Hochma. When the two of them unite, ZA is incorporated with the Hochma in Malchut, and she ascends and reveals the Hochma in his Yod of HaVaYaH, and becomes his crown on his head. This is regarded as Malchut being the Yod of HaVaYaH, and the Guf [body] of ZA is Hey-Vav-Hey of HaVaYaH.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There is an allegory about a king who had a crown on his head, which is Malchut that shines in the Yod of HaVaYaH of ZA, and a handsome tree before him, Hey-Vav-Hey, the three lines of ZA. However, in the exile, ZA was diminished into VAK without a Rosh, and Malchut to his point of Sium [end]. A bad rumor came to him, and he threw the crown from his head. And the Shechina being the Yod on the Hey-Vav-Hey returned to being Hey-Vav-Hey-Yod, since the point of Sium has fallen and become under him.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
