They all flow and are extended from it, as it is written, \u201cthan the sounds of many waters,\u201d than those sounds of many waters, the Sefirot of ZA, seven sounds that emerge and are extended from the upper river, Bina. Rivers are as it is written, \u201cThe rivers have lifted up their voice,\u201d meaning the Sefirot of ZA.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The right and left are disputed and wish to revoke one another. When it is said \u201cmany waters,\u201d it is the right arm, meaning that the Hassadim in the right line grow stronger with many Hassadim, and therefore cannot quench the love, the love of the lovers in the left.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It is also said, \u201cmany waters\u201d is the upper river, Bina, from which lights emerge to each side, shining to the right and to the left, but under the control of the right, with covered Hassadim. Although they are in all the wholeness, they cannot quench the love that is on the left, meaning they cannot detain the phase of bottom Hochma from being revealed in Malchut, who is extended from the left in clothing of the right. Similarly, the rivers, the lights of ZA, which are also covered Hassadim, \u201cwill not wash it away.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>41. It is written, \u201cIf a man were to give all the wealth of his house for love,\u201d the love that the assembly of Israel loves the Creator, \u201che would be utterly despised.\u201d Should it not have written \u201cHe will despise him\u201d? However, \u201cIf a man,\u201d the Creator, \u201cwere to give all the wealth of his house,\u201d all the illuminations of Mochin that he has, for the love of the assembly of Israel for him, which is the love of the right, covered Hassadim, and not bond with the bottom Hochma in her, since he would not bestow upon her illumination of Hochma, but covered Hassadim, which are all the wealth of his house, then \u201che will be utterly despised.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>All those battalions and all those camps of above will despise that precious fortune, the Hassadim, since they all have no desire except when the assembly of Israel connects with the Creator and crowns herself with Him, when He bestows Hochma upon her, and the Hochma in her dresses in His Hassadim. At that time, all those battalions and all those camps and all the worlds are all in joy, in light, in blessings. It is written about this, \u201cHis left under my head,\u201d illumination of Hochma, and it is written, \u201cand His right will embrace me,\u201d the clothing of Hochma in Hassadim.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>42a. One who wears a hand Tefillin should stretch out his left arm, in which there is bestowal of Hochma, to receive the assembly of Israel, Malchut, and tie a knot with his right hand, to embrace it with the Hassadim on the right, so the Hochma will clothe in Hassadim, to observe the verse, \u201cHis left under my head, and His right will embrace me.\u201d A person should appear such as above and be crowned in everything, whether in Hochma or in Hassadim, and then the person is complete in everything, in the upper holiness, and the Creator declares about him, \u201cIsrael, in whom I will be glorified.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>42b. \u201cHe will be utterly despised.\u201d Buz [despised] is an acronym for the second, sixth, and seventh day of sukkot, on which they would pour water and wine. Water is Hassadim; wine is Hochma. \u201cIf a man were to give all the wealth of his house for love,\u201d which are all the degrees of ZA, covered Hassadim, he still needs to also be utterly despised, illumination of Hochma and Hassadim, which are revealed on the second, sixth, and seventh day of sukkot, which complete his illumination.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On the seven days of Sukkot, Israel would sacrifice seventy bulls to atone for seventy ministers appointed over the seventy nations, illumination of the left, for the nations have no other illumination from the left. They did this so the world would not be destroyed by them, as it is written, \u201cOn the fifteenth day of the seventh month you shall have a holy assembly. You shall do no regular work, and you shall keep a feast to the Lord seven days. And you shall offer a burnt offering, a food offering, with a pleasing scent.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>40. \u201cMany waters cannot quench love, and rivers will not
