26) \u201cHe who sits in the heavens laughs, the Lord scoffs at them.\u201d \u201cHe who sits in the heavens laughs\u201d is Isaac, which comes from wine\u2014which shines and laughs first, and is enraged and confusing later. It is written, \u201cHe who sits in the heavens laughs.\u201d It does not say, \u201cSits in heaven,\u201d for heaven is ZA, which includes HGT NHY. Had it said \u201cSits in heaven,\u201d I would have said it is ZA. But it writes, \u201cSits in the heavens,\u201d meaning one end from the heavens, which is Gevura, and the quality of Isaac. And since Isaac [Yitzhak] shines and laughs [Tzohek], the judgment laughs and shines to the wicked.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
27) Such is the way of the wicked: The Creator shines for them in this world and shows them a face as bright as wine, for it shines first, and is then angered and kills. And the Creator pulls the wicked toward Him so they will repent. If they return to Him, good. If not, He consumes them from the next world and they have no share in it, and they are blotted out from everything. If they come to purify, they are assisted and the Creator purifies them and brings them close to Him, and calls \u201cpeace\u201d upon them, as it is written, \u201cPeace, peace to him who is far and to him who is near, says the Lord, \u2018and I will heal them.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
28. It is written, \u201cBehold, a day for the Lord is coming, and your spoil will be divided in your midst.\u201d It should have written, \u201cBehold, a day will come\u201d; why is it written, \u201ca day for the Lord is coming\u201d? However, it already came before the world was created, meaning Malchut, who appoints all the judgments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It is a day in which judgment will be executed on the wicked, a day in which the Creator will avenge those who afflicted Israel. That day is coming and stands before the Creator, and demands of Him to execute judgment and obliterate the idol-worshipers, and He is given permission, as it is written, \u201cAnd I will gather all the nations to battle against Jerusalem.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
29. There are two days to the Creator: one that is with Him, Gevura, and one that comes before Him, Malchut. With those two, the Creator makes wars. When a day that is Malchut comes to make war, it connects to a day that is Gevura of ZA, and takes the weapon of Gevura over his own weapon, as it is written, \u201cFor a day for the Lord of hosts over every proud and lofty, and over every high and low.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
30. \u201cIf a woman has a discharge of blood\u201d is as it is written, \u201cA sword for the Lord, full of blood.\u201d Malchut is called \u201csword\u201d and is called \u201cwoman.\u201d \u201cFull of blood\u201d means judgments, as it is written, \u201cIf a woman has a discharge of blood for many days.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cAt a time other than her menstrual period\u201d is as it is written, \u201cAnd the Lord hurried with the calamity and brought it upon us,\u201d meaning the Creator hurries and brings the punishments to the world, which the wicked cause by their iniquities, before their time, so the punishments will come to the world early. This is the meaning of the words, \u201cat a time other than her menstrual period.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cOr if she has a discharge beyond the time of her menstrual period\u201d is as it is written, \u201cand I will afflict you more,\u201d adding judgment to judgment and giving blood over blood, more than there is, with \u201ca sword for the Lord full of blood,\u201d meaning more judgments than there are in Malchut herself, as it is written, \u201cor if she has a discharge,\u201d discharging more judgments than there are in her menstrual period, which are her own judgments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
31. \u201cI will no longer curse the ground for man\u2019s sake.\u201d \u201cNo longer\u201d means \u201cI will no longer give additional judgments to this sword, to Malchut, except in a way that the world can tolerate. But it is written, \u201cand I will \u2026 more,\u201d meaning that He does give additional judgments to Malchut? However, it is written, \u201cand I will afflict you more,\u201d and it is not written \u201cto obliterate.\u201d Thus, He adds only to the extent that the world can tolerate, as it is written, \u201cOr if she has a discharge beyond the time of her menstrual period,\u201d meaning she will have discharge of judgments more than there are in her, herself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
32. Why is it written, \u201call the days of her the discharge of her impurity\u201d? The wicked defile themselves through their iniquities, and they also defile the Temple of the Lord, and the spirit of impurity awakens upon them. In the days to come, the Creator will purify Israel and remove the spirit of impurity from the world, as it is written, \u201cAn uncircumcised and an impure will no longer come among you,\u201d and as it is written, \u201cAnd I will remove the spirit of impurity from the earth.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
