112) \u201cAnd he took Shimon [Simeon] from them and bound him before their eyes.\u201d What was the reason that Joseph took Shimon more than his other brothers? Joseph said, \u201cIn every place, Shimon is the opening of the Din<\/em>. That time when I went from my father to my brothers, Shimon began with Din<\/em> first, as it is written, \u2018They said to one another, \u2018Here comes this dreamer! Now come let us kill him.\u2019\u2019 And then about Shechem, it is written, \u2018And two of Jacob’s sons, Shimon and Levi, Dinah’s brothers, each took his sword and came upon the city.\u2019 They were all in Din<\/em>. This is why it was good for Joseph to take it and not evoke strife in all the tribes.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

113) What was the reason that Shimon connected to Levi more than to all, after all, Reuben was his brother and was as close to him as Levi, so why did he not cling to Reuben? But Shimon saw and knew that Levi came from the side of Din<\/em>, and Shimon was gripping from the side of the harsher Din<\/em>. He said, if we mingle with one another we will destroy the world. What did the Creator do? He took Levi to His part. He said, \u201cHenceforth, Shimon will sit alone, chained in ropes.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

114) On the side of Ima<\/em> there are two spirits that seek judgment gripping to the left hand. Each day they spy on the earth, Malchut<\/em>. That is, they suckle from NHY<\/em> de<\/em> Malchut<\/em>, called \u201clegs,\u201d as it is written, \u201cTwo men, spies\u201d [In Hebrew, \u201clegs\u201d and \u201cspies\u201d have the same root].<\/p>\n\n\n\n

115) Happy are Israel more than all the idol-worshipping nations, for the Creator wishes to purify them and have mercy on them, for they are His lot and inheritance, as it is written, \u201cFor the portion of the Lord is His people, Jacob the lot of His inheritance.\u201d It is also written, \u201cHe made him ride on the high places of the earth.\u201d They grip above, in ZA<\/em>, hence the love of the Creator clings to them, as it is written, \u201cI have loved you, says the Lord.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And out of the great love that He loves them, He has given them one day in the year to purify and cleanse themselves of all their iniquities, as it is written, \u201cFor on this day shall atonement be made for you, to cleanse you,\u201d so they are worthy in this world, in the next world, and there will be no sin among them. For this reason, on that day Israel are crowned and rule over all the seekers of Din<\/em> and over all the spirits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

116) \u201cAnd Aaron shall cast lots upon the two goats, one lot for the Lord, and one lot for Azazel.\u201d It is particularly Aaron, since he comes from the side of Hesed<\/em> and can complement the Malchut<\/em> with Hassadim<\/em>. \u201cUpon the two goats\u201d implies Malchut<\/em> above the two goats, so Malchut<\/em> will be perfumed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cOne lot for the Lord and the other lot for Azazel.\u201d Two goats imply Dinim<\/em>. And why is one for the Lord? The Creator said, \u201cLet one goat stay with Me, and let one walk and wander in the world, for if the two unite, the world will not be able to withstand.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

117) That goat goes out and walks and wanders in the world. It finds Israel in several works, in several degrees, in several good laws, but cannot overcome them. There is peace among all of them and it cannot penetrate them with gossip, meaning it cannot slander them. That goat is sent with the burden of all of Israel\u2019s iniquities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

118) Several battalions of saboteurs come under the hand of that goat, and they are appointed to spy on the earth on all those who breach the words of the Torah. On Yom Kippur<\/em> [Day of Atonement], he does not slander and talks about Israel. When that goat comes to Azazel, to the mountain, such great joy is perfumed in it for everyone. That seeker of Din<\/em> who went out, the goat of above, returns and praises Israel; the prosecutor has become an advocate; the slanderer has become a giver of good references.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The questions here are \u201cWhat are these lots for?\u201d \u201cWhy should Aaron give the lots and not some other person?\u201d and \u201cWhy was this portion said specifically on Yom Kippur<\/em>?\u201d To explain them, The Zohar<\/em> introduces three issues: the matter of Shimon and Levi, the matter of two men, spying, and the matter of the two goats. At their roots, the Dinim<\/em> in them are equal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Two kinds of Dinim<\/em> are the roots of all the Dinim<\/em> and the sins in the world: Dinim<\/em> de<\/em> Dechura<\/em> [male Dinim<\/em>], which extend from the left line, and Dinim<\/em> de<\/em> Nukva<\/em>, which extend from the Masach<\/em>. When the Dinim<\/em> de<\/em> Nukva<\/em> come from the correction, from the middle line, they contradict the Dinim<\/em> de<\/em> Dechura<\/em> and revoke them. However, if the Dinim<\/em> de<\/em> Nukva<\/em> do not come from the correction, but rather from the Dinim<\/em> themselves, then not only do they not cancel the Dinim<\/em> de<\/em> Dechura<\/em>, they are added to them and destroy the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Shimon and Levi were Dinim<\/em>. Shimon is from the Dinim<\/em> de<\/em> Dechura<\/em>, extending from the left line, and Levi is from the Dinim<\/em> de<\/em> Nukva<\/em>, extending from the Masach<\/em>. Shimon saw and knew. He said, let us mingle with each other and destroy the world, for when the Dinim<\/em> de<\/em> Nukva<\/em> in Levi are added to Shimon\u2019s Dinim<\/em> de<\/em> Dechura<\/em>, they will destroy the world. What did the Creator do? He took Levi to His portion, raised him up to His correction, to the middle line, at which time he contradicts the Dinim<\/em> de<\/em> Dechura<\/em> and makes his GAR<\/em> of the left disappear, as in the middle line. Henceforth, Shimon will sit alone, chained in ropes. That is, his GAR<\/em> of the left will be diminished and he will remain in VAK<\/em> de<\/em> Hochma<\/em>. This is regarded for him as though he is tied in ropes by the Dinim<\/em> de<\/em> Nukva<\/em> in Levi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This settles the verse, \u201cAnd he took Shimon from them and bound him before their eyes.\u201d We should ask, \u201cWhat was the reason that Joseph took Shimon over his other brothers?\u201d Joseph is Yesod<\/em>, the middle line from the Chazeh<\/em> and below. Hence, the Dinim<\/em> de<\/em> Nukva<\/em>, established in the middle line, bound Shimon, who diminished the GAR<\/em> of the left in Shimon, from whom come all the Dinim<\/em> and the quarrels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

From the side of Ima<\/em>, two spirits that seek Din<\/em> grip to the left hand. These are Dinim<\/em> de<\/em> Nukva<\/em> and Dinim<\/em> de<\/em> Dechura<\/em>, and both extend from Ima<\/em> to Malchut<\/em>. The Dinim<\/em> de<\/em> Nukva<\/em> join and unite with the Dinim<\/em> de<\/em> Dechura<\/em> from Ima\u2019s<\/em> left hand, and each day they spy on the earth, since they grip to the NHY<\/em> of Malchut<\/em>, called Raglaim<\/em> [legs]. Malchut<\/em> is called \u201cearth,\u201d and this is why they are called \u201cMeraglim<\/em> [\u201cspies,\u201d having the same root as Raglaim<\/em> (legs)] of the earth. They awaken each day, and their correction is through the illumination of the middle line each day. It is written about them, \u201cTwo men, spies.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And why is \u201cone for the Lord\u201d? The Creator said, \u201cLet one goat stay with Me.\u201d This is the goat for the sin-offering. In their roots above, both goats are Dinim<\/em>. The goat for the sin-offering is Dinim<\/em> de<\/em> Nukva<\/em>, and the goat for Azazel is Dinim<\/em> de<\/em> Dechura<\/em>. The Creator, the middle line, said that the goat for the sin-offering will \u201cstay with Me,\u201d meaning that its Dinim<\/em> will be corrected in the middle line, which diminishes the GAR<\/em> of the left line, and the goat for Azazel, which is from Dinim<\/em> de<\/em> Dechura<\/em>, will go and roam the world alone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is the same as with Shimon and Levi, who destroy the world if they connect because if the Dinim<\/em> de<\/em> Nukva<\/em> do not extend from the correction of the middle line, they join the Dinim<\/em> de<\/em> Dechura<\/em> and destroy the world. This is why He took Him the goat for the sin-offering.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It was said in The Zohar<\/em> that on Rosh Hashanah<\/em> day [Hebrew New Year\u2019s Eve], Satan should be stunned, similar to a state of one who has woken up from his sleep and does not know anything. On Yom Kippur<\/em> [Day of Atonement], Satan should be dealt with calmly. He should be given contentment with the goat to Azazel that is sacrificed for him. At that time he becomes an advocate for Israel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is so because on Rosh Hashanah<\/em>, the world reverts to the state it was in on the fourth day of the work of creation: GAR<\/em> de<\/em> Hochma<\/em> reappear, and the Sitra Achra<\/em> awakens to extend Dinim<\/em> of the left on the world. The correction for it is blowing the Shofar<\/em> [festive horn], which diminishes the GAR<\/em> from the worlds, leaving them in VAK<\/em> without a Rosh<\/em>, and Satan is confused because his grip is only to the GAR<\/em> of the left, and now they have vanished due to the blowing of the Shofar<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, because GAR<\/em> disappeared, a place of deficiency has been created in the worlds, and Sitra Achra<\/em> rises and grips to the deficient place of the GAR<\/em>, and makes people sin. This is why the intermediate are in doubt until Yom Kippur<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For this reason, a second correction took place on Yom Kippur<\/em>\u2014redrawing illumination of Hochma<\/em>. And for this reason a correction was made that the Sitra Achra<\/em> will not grip to the left, to make the world sin by extending Hochma<\/em> from above downward. And the correction introduced in several places is that upon disclosure of Hochma<\/em>, harsh Dinim<\/em> will appear with it, which punish the wicked. By that, Hochma<\/em> is kept from the wicked\u2019s draw from above downward.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The source of that correction was done on Yom Kippur<\/em> by the goat for Azazel. On Yom Kippur<\/em> the Hochma<\/em> appears by clothing of Malchut<\/em> to Bina<\/em>. At that time, it is written, \u201cAnd Aaron shall cast lots upon the two goats,\u201d where one goat is Dinim<\/em> de<\/em> Nukva<\/em>, and the other goat is Dinim<\/em> de<\/em> Dechura<\/em> extending from GAR<\/em> de<\/em> Hochma<\/em>. \u201cOne lot for the Lord,\u201d the lot in which there are Dinim<\/em> de<\/em> Nukva<\/em>, which rises to the Creator, the middle line, by the force of the blowing of the Shofar<\/em> on Rosh Hashanah<\/em>, receiving the illumination of Hochma<\/em> in VAK<\/em>, as is the way in Kedusha<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cAnd one lot for Azazel.\u201d This is the goat in which there are Dinim<\/em> de<\/em> Dechura<\/em>, and on which GAR<\/em> de<\/em> Hochma<\/em> is revealed because it extends the illumination of Hochma<\/em> from above downward, as does the Sitra Achra<\/em>. Subsequently, it is written, \u201cAnd he shall let the goat go in the desert,\u201d meaning that all the punishments that extend to those adhered to it became revealed on it, since they must follow it to the desert and the ruin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And then both Dinim<\/em> were corrected. The Dinim<\/em> de<\/em> Nukva<\/em> were corrected by the lot for the Creator rising over them to the middle line, having corrected them with illumination of VAK<\/em> de<\/em> Hochma<\/em>. And in order to prevent the Sitra Achra<\/em> from clinging to the place of deficiency of GAR<\/em> de<\/em> Hochma<\/em>, he was given the goat to Azazel, extending GAR<\/em> de<\/em> Hochma<\/em> with all the Dinim<\/em> and the punishments. And then the prosecutor becomes an advocate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is so because he will not want to cling to a place of deficiency of GAR<\/em> de<\/em> Hochma<\/em> so as to not ruin his own GAR<\/em>, which he suckles from the gate to Azazel. And also, by sending it to the desert, there is no fear that he will make the people of the world sin with drawing from above downward due to the Dinim<\/em> upon it. When that goat to Azazel reaches the mountain, such great joy is perfumed in it for all, meaning all the Dinim<\/em>\u2014the Dinim<\/em> de<\/em> Nukva<\/em>, as well as the Dinim<\/em> de<\/em> Dechura<\/em>. And that seeker of Din<\/em> who went out, the goat of above, returns and praises Israel. The prosecutor has become an advocate, the slanderer has become a giver of good references.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The two goats imply Dinim<\/em>, but why should one be for the Lord? The Creator said, \u201cLet one goat stay with Me.\u201d That is, let the one from the Dinim<\/em> de<\/em> Nukva<\/em> stay with Me and receive VAK<\/em> de<\/em> Hochma<\/em>, as is the way of Kedusha<\/em>, and let another go and wander in the world, to seduce the people of the world to extend for it the GAR<\/em> from above downward as it wishes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Then the Sitra Achra<\/em> went to make people sin, so they would draw for him illumination of Hochma<\/em> from above downward. That goat goes and wanders in the world, and finds Israel in several works, several degrees, several good laws, and it cannot overcome them. Through the lots, the merit of the goat is clarified\u2014the one which was to be the lot for the Creator, the great illuminations and Mochin<\/em> that extend from it, as opposed to the great Dinim<\/em> and punishments that appear with the goat that went to Azazel. At that time all of Israel cling to the Creator with all their might, and the Sitra Achra<\/em> cannot come among them with gossip due to fear of the Dinim<\/em> that are revealed with him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Those two Dinim<\/em> are the roots of all the sins and iniquities. And because those two fundamental Dinim<\/em> have been corrected, we can be certain that the house of Israel will no longer sin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That goat is sent with the burden of all of Israel\u2019s iniquities, as it is written, \u201cAnd the goat shall bear upon him all their iniquities unto a deserted land,\u201d for Israel have become certain that they will no longer sin because of the Dinim<\/em> that appeared with the goat that was sent to the deserted land, and then they will be pardoned. This clarifies the question, \u201cWhat are these lots for?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And Aaron, why should he give the lots? It is precisely Aaron, for because he came from the side of Hesed<\/em>, he was worthy of extending the abundance of Hassadim<\/em> on the goat on which the lot for the Creator was applied, and to unite the right and left in Malchut<\/em> with each other.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And why was this portion said on Yom Kippur<\/em>? It is because out of love, He has given them one day a year in which to purify and cleanse them from all their iniquities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

119) Where Israel need to be purified from their iniquity, the Creator gives the advice of tying accusers, so they do not slander, and to perfume them with these sacrifices and offerings that they sacrifice to the Creator. And then they cannot harm. It is especially so on Yom Kippur<\/em>. And as Israel below perfume everything through the two goats, so they perfume all the slanderers, and everything is a sacrifice and worship of the Creator.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

120) When it is written, \u201cAnd Aaron shall take the two goats,\u201d those two goats\u2014which are Dinim<\/em> de<\/em> Nukva<\/em> and Dinim<\/em> de<\/em> Dechura<\/em> above\u2014awaken and want to connect with one another, and rule, and go out to the world. When the priest brings those two goats closer below, in the Temple, those above grow near, and then lots go out to all directions. The priest gives lots below. The priest, Hesed<\/em>, gives lots above.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And as one goat remains in the Creator below\u2014one lot for the Lord, and one, a goat for Azazel, is taken out to the desert\u2014so it is above, one remains in the Creator in the middle line, and one goes out and roams the world toward the upper desert. The Dinim<\/em> appear along with the appearance of Hochma<\/em>, which are regarded as \u201cdesert\u201d and \u201cdeserted land,\u201d one connects to one, and they illuminate each other. By that, the two kinds of Dinim<\/em> are cancelled\u2014both Dinim<\/em> de<\/em> Nukva<\/em> and Dinim<\/em> de<\/em> Dechura<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

121) It is written, \u201cAnd Aaron shall lay both of his hands on the head of the live goat, and confess over it all the iniquities of the children of Israel.\u201d \u201cAnd Aaron shall lay both of his hands\u201d means right line and left line, so the Creator, the middle line, will consent to his hands. \u201cOn the head of the live goat.\u201d The word \u201clive\u201d comes to include the goat above, on which the GAR<\/em> de<\/em> Hochma<\/em> appear along with the Dinim<\/em>, for Hochma<\/em> is called \u201calive.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

122) \u201cAnd confess over it all the iniquities of the children of Israel\u201d is as is written, \u201cAnd he shall confess that he has sinned on her.\u201d \u201cOn her\u201d means that a person has been purified, and all that iniquity remained on her, on the female goat. Here, too, he confessed it, meaning that after the priest confessed for Israel, \u201con it\u201d means that all the iniquities will remain on him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

123) But it is written, \u201cAnd they shall no more sacrifice their sacrifices to the goats,\u201d so how can the goat for Azazel be aimed opposite the goat of above? However, there they would sacrifice the sacrifice to the goats, as it is written, \u201c…their sacrifices to the goats,\u201d since there they did their work for the goats and gave them predominance, and here it is written, \u201cAnd the goat shall bear upon him all their iniquities.\u201d The offering is done only for the Creator. Thanks to the sacrifice, upper and lower are blessed, and the Din<\/em> is not present and does not rule over Israel.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
