At that time, in the morning, the redeemer comes, Yesod of ZA, for then is the time of the coupling of ZA and Malchut, when Israel pray a prayer and attach the redemption, meaning the blessing \u201cRedeemer of Israel,\u201d to the Eighteen Prayer. At that time, it is considered that Israel are in the holy land, Malchut.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When he does not attach redemption to prayer, then ZA and Malchut are not adjacent, and Malchut walks in exile. When she is separated from ZA, it is regarded for her as exile.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>618. It is written, \u201cAnd behold, the redeemer, of whom Boaz had spoken, came by.\u201d This is a nearby redeemer, nearer to redemption, to the next world, Bina. That redeemer is the upper right, the light of Hesed, the first Sefira after Bina, and for this reason, he is a nearby redeemer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>619. \u201cSo he said, \u2018Come aside, so and so, sit down here.\u2019 \u201cSo and so\u201d is a hidden man, for it is written, \u201cTurned his right back,\u201d for until the end of days, Malchut lies in the ground, and the right, Hesed, does not redeem her. And he was then unknown, so and so, meaning the hidden so and so, hidden since the day when the world was created, for the light of Hesed that operated in the first day of the work of creation had been concealed, and will be revealed at the time of the end of days.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>620. \u201cI cannot redeem it for myself, lest I impair my own inheritance.\u201d This means that there are two Messiahs, a near redeemer and a far redeemer. The near redeemer is on the right side, the light of Hesed. The far redeemer is Messiah son of Joseph, Joseph who is called \u201crighteous,\u201d Yesod of ZA, and Boaz is Yesod of ZA, and he is the Messiah who comes first.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>621. \u201cI cannot redeem it for myself,\u201d since the right which is to the back, as it is written, \u201cturned his right back,\u201d it is written about it, \u201cSave with Your right, and answer me,\u201d and until this one is saved, I will not be able to redeem it for myself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>622. This is so because the Messiah son of Joseph, Yesod of ZA, will come and be redeemed first. Afterwards, the hidden light of the right will awaken, the first light that operated on the first day in the work of creation, which is concealed for the two righteous, Tzadik [righteous] and Tzedek [justice], to Yesod of ZA, who is called \u201crighteous,\u201d and to Yesod of Malchut, who is called \u201cjustice.\u201d By this, they will rise and connect in passion in concealment, to make offspring and fruits in the world, and then, as it is written, \u201cThe right hand of the Lord exalts.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>623. And the redeemer said to Boaz, \u201cBuy for yourself,\u201d and he took off his shoe, as it is written, \u201cpulled out and came out from her back.\u201d This speaks about the awakening of the covenant, and speaks in a respectable manner. Because the right has awakened\u2014the light of Hesed\u2014to the righteous, Yesod of ZA, promptly, \u201cand he took off his shoe,\u201d which is his awakening to the bottom world, Malchut. At that time, he awakens to make fruits in the world, \u201cand I was daily His delight.\u201d The day of the Creator is a thousand years, as it is written, \u201cFor a thousand years in Your eyes are like yesterday when it is past.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>617.
