17) A cedar tree, Tifferet, as it is written \u201cFrom the cedar that is in Lebanon,\u201d for the plants of a cedar tree, Tifferet, take root only in Lebanon, Bina.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
18) \u201cTo take for him that is to be cleansed two living clean birds, and cedar-wood, and scarlet, and hyssop.\u201d When a man engages in the work of his Master and engages in the Torah, the Creator is over him and Divinity bonds with him. When a man comes to be defiled, Divinity parts with him, the Creator parts with him, all his Master\u2019s side of holiness turns away from him, and the spirit of impurity is over him and over the whole side of impurity. When he comes to be purified, he is assisted. And after he is purified and repents, what has departed him returns to him\u2014the Creator and His Divinity\u2014and they are on him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
19) It is written, \u201cTo take for him that is to be cleansed two living clean birds.\u201d Since he already said, \u201cTwo birds,\u201d I do not know that they are alive. So why does it say \u201cliving\u201d? Indeed, actually alive, as it is written, \u201cAnd I fear,\u201d the animals. They correspond to the place from which the prophets are nursed, Netzah and Hod, which are called \u201clower animals.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The cedar tree is Tifferet, and scarlet is the red side of Gevura in Divinity, which partook with him in the beginning. The hyssop is the small Vav, Yesod, which nurses the assembly of Israel, Divinity. For this reason, a cedar tree and hyssop, which are Tifferet and Yesod, go together, for they are regarded as one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Hence, there are two Vavs are as one in the name HaVaYaH. The Vav that is pronounced is Vav. There is one above, Tifferet, and one small, Yesod\u2014upper Vav and lower Vav. And everyone, the Creator\u2014who is Tifferet and Yesod\u2014and Divinity return to being over him as in the beginning, since he has been purified. And opposite those that return to him, which are Tifferet, Yesod, and Divinity, below they are a tree (cedar), hyssop, and scarlet, which are in this purity, hanging from these high Sefirot.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
