Once the children have been saved and are sitting in the&nbsp;<em>Sukkot<\/em>&nbsp;[huts\/booths], they are kept by&nbsp;<em>Ima\u2019s<\/em>&nbsp;keeping, the&nbsp;<em>Shechina<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On the first and second days of the festival of&nbsp;<em>Sukkot<\/em>&nbsp;she commanded Israel to make a feast for the appointees over the rest of the nations: seventy bulls for seventy ministers, and she is not with them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On the third day, the seventeenth of the month, the&nbsp;<em>Shechina<\/em>&nbsp;begins to be over them, as it is written, \u201cIn the seventh month, on the seventeenth day of the month, the ark rested on the mountains of Ararat.\u201d The ark is the&nbsp;<em>Shechina<\/em>. The mountains of Ararat are mountains in which there are all the curses and punishments. They are the appointees of the nations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>885) On the first and second days of the festival,&nbsp;<em>Malchut<\/em>&nbsp;is not over the appointees of the seventy nations. But on the third day, which adds and detracts, adding letters and detracting offerings, as it is written, \u201cAnd on the third day: eleven bulls,\u201d which is for the evil eyed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It is so because on the first and second days it is the joy of the children, and Israel dispense spoils to the appointees of those nations. From the third day on, when&nbsp;<em>Malchut<\/em>&nbsp;is on them, it is written, \u201cAnd the waters decreased continually until the tenth month. In the tenth month, on the first day of the month, the tops of the mountains were seen.\u201d And the waters decreased continually\u201d is the offerings that decrease continually. As they decrease, their good decreases accordingly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Malchut<\/em>&nbsp;is built primarily from the left line, the illumination of&nbsp;<em>Hochma<\/em>&nbsp;of the left. However, when she is on Israel, she is in&nbsp;<em>Zivug<\/em>&nbsp;with&nbsp;<em>ZA<\/em>, the middle line. At that time the&nbsp;<em>Hochma<\/em>&nbsp;in&nbsp;<em>Malchut<\/em>&nbsp;illuminates only from below upward, and her illumination is primarily from the&nbsp;<em>Hassadim<\/em>&nbsp;she receives from&nbsp;<em>ZA<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But when&nbsp;<em>Malchut<\/em>&nbsp;is on the nations of the world and the&nbsp;<em>Sitra Achra<\/em>, it is to the contrary, she is not on them unless when she is separated from&nbsp;<em>ZA<\/em>, since the nations of the&nbsp;<em>Sitra Achra<\/em>&nbsp;do not wish to receive from the middle line,&nbsp;<em>ZA<\/em>, but only from the left in&nbsp;<em>Malchut<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>All the day from the Day of Atonement to&nbsp;<em>Sukkot<\/em>, the mother walks on the children, meaning&nbsp;<em>Malchut<\/em>&nbsp;is in&nbsp;<em>Zivug<\/em>&nbsp;with&nbsp;<em>ZA<\/em>, the middle line, so the&nbsp;<em>Sitra Achra<\/em>&nbsp;will not govern Israel, so the&nbsp;<em>Sitra Achra<\/em>&nbsp;will not awaken them to extend the&nbsp;<em>Hochma<\/em>&nbsp;from above downward from&nbsp;<em>Malchut<\/em>, as is the manner of the&nbsp;<em>Sitra Achra<\/em>. Once they have been rewarded with a&nbsp;<em>Sukkah<\/em>&nbsp;[sing. of&nbsp;<em>Sukkot<\/em>], they are kept in high keeping, so the&nbsp;<em>Sitra Achra<\/em>&nbsp;can no longer govern them and stray them into drawing the left from above downward.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is why she commanded Israel to make a feast for the rest of the nations, to offer seventy bulls, which is an extension of the illumination of the left to the ministers of the nations and the&nbsp;<em>Sitra Achra<\/em>&nbsp;only for their mere sustenance and existence, since there is no sustenance and existence to the nations and the&nbsp;<em>Sitra Achra<\/em>&nbsp;unless from the illumination of the left. But she is not with them there, since the&nbsp;<em>Malchut<\/em>&nbsp;is not on them unless she is separated from&nbsp;<em>ZA<\/em>, at which time she enhances the vitality of the&nbsp;<em>Sitra Achra<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For this reason, she is not on them in order to not give them additional vitality, but only Israel extend to them their portion from the offerings, and Israel extend only illumination from below upward, as a correction of the middle line.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This illumination comes by way of three lines that illuminate to&nbsp;<em>Malchut<\/em>,&nbsp;<em>HG<\/em>&nbsp;<em>TM<\/em>. And once they are included with one another, there are three lines in each of the&nbsp;<em>HG<\/em>&nbsp;<em>TM<\/em>, in which there are twelve, twelve bullocks. With the inclusion, they are thirteen bulls.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These are the thirteen bulls they sacrificed on the first day, and the twelve bulls they sacrificed on the second day, which are extensions of&nbsp;<em>Hochma<\/em>&nbsp;in three lines and&nbsp;<em>Malchut<\/em>&nbsp;who receives them. When they mingle, they are twelve, and with the inclusion they are thirteen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On the first and second days it is the joy of the children, and Israel dispense spoils to the appointees of the nations of the world. Israel dispense the illumination of the left to the appointees of the nations, hence they are divided by the number thirteen bulls on the first day, and twelve bulls on the second day. This is the mingling of the three lines and&nbsp;<em>Malchut<\/em>&nbsp;with one another, as is the illumination of the middle line.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>From the third day on,&nbsp;<em>Malchut<\/em>&nbsp;is on them, since once they have received from Israel all that they could illuminate to them, which is twelve bulls,&nbsp;<em>Malchut<\/em>&nbsp;begins to be over the appointees of the nations. By the illumination they received from the twelve bulls in holiness, which was from the middle line, they intensify and extend only from&nbsp;<em>Malchut<\/em>, only from her essence, left without right, so they can extend from above downward as they wish.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is why Israel were commanded to sacrifice eleven bulls on the third day, which adds and detracts, adding letters and detracting sacrifices. It is written about it, \u201cAnd on the third day: eleven bulls,\u201d for on the first and second days Israel imparted on them from the holiness, twelve, from the mingling of three lines. But when they grew strong\u2014to draw from the left without right, from&nbsp;<em>Malchut<\/em>&nbsp;when she is separated\u2014they added an evil eye to the illumination of the twelve bulls they had received on the first and second days, and it became eleven.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When adding the letter&nbsp;<em>Ayin<\/em>&nbsp;to the words&nbsp;<em>Shtei Asar<\/em>&nbsp;[twelve], it becomes&nbsp;<em>Ashtei Asar<\/em>&nbsp;[eleven]. It follows that he added an&nbsp;<em>Ayin<\/em>&nbsp;and detracted the sacrifices, for they no longer had twelve bulls but eleven bulls. Thus they were waning until they stopped altogether, as it is written, \u201cAnd the water decreased continually,\u201d being the sacrifices that continually decrease.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>884) On all the days from the Day of Atonement to&nbsp;Sukkot, the mother\u2014the&nbsp;Shechina\u2014walks over the children, Israel to
