Hallelujah.\u201d But is&nbsp;<em>ZA<\/em>,&nbsp;<em>HaVaYaH<\/em>&nbsp;[the Lord] blessed out of Zion, from&nbsp;<em>Malchut<\/em>? He is blessed from the high, deep river, from&nbsp;<em>Bina<\/em>. So why did he say, \u201cBlessed be the Lord out of Zion\u201d? Indeed, \u201cBlessed be the Lord\u201d relates to&nbsp;<em>Malchut<\/em>&nbsp;when the moon,&nbsp;<em>Malchut<\/em>, shines from the light of the sun,&nbsp;<em>ZA<\/em>, and they draw near to each other and do not remove their lights from one another.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When he says, \u201cBlessed is the Lord,\u201d it is because sometimes the moon,&nbsp;<em>Malchut<\/em>, is called by the name of the King,&nbsp;<em>ZA<\/em>. As He is called&nbsp;<em>HaVaYaH<\/em>, she is called&nbsp;<em>HaVaYaH<\/em>, as it is written, \u201cThen the Lord rained on Sodom and Gomorrah brimstone and fire from the Lord out of heaven.\u201d The first&nbsp;<em>HaVaYaH<\/em>&nbsp;[the Lord] is the&nbsp;<em>Malchut<\/em>, and the second&nbsp;<em>HaVaYaH<\/em>&nbsp;is&nbsp;<em>ZA<\/em>. Moreover, even an emissary, an angel, is called by the name of the King,&nbsp;<em>HaVaYaH<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>133) From where is it known that the Creator is blessed? It is known that He is blessed from a place called \u201cZion,\u201d&nbsp;<em>Yesod<\/em>&nbsp;<em>de<\/em>&nbsp;<em>Malchut<\/em>. This is because it is written, \u201cFor there the Lord commanded the blessing.\u201d And since He imparts the blessing in Zion, it is known from there that He is blessed, for a blessed one imparts blessing. Happy are those who engage in Torah, for all who engage in Torah, it is as though they are gripped to the Creator, as it is written, \u201cBut you who adhere to the Lord your God are alive everyone of you this day.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>132) \u201cBlessed be the Lord out of Zion, who dwells in Jerusalem.
