164) It is written, \u201cAnd God said to Moses, \u2018EKYEH<\/em> Asher<\/em> EKYEH<\/em> [I Am that I Am].\u2019\u201d What does it mean?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

165) The name EKYEH<\/em> is the inclusive, upper AVI<\/em>, GAR<\/em> de<\/em> Bina<\/em>, who are always as it is written, \u201cFor he desires mercy.\u201d They never receive Hochma<\/em> because the Yod<\/em> blocks their Avir<\/em> [air] and never comes out of them, and they are included in Rosh<\/em> AA<\/em>. It is so because being in GAR<\/em> de<\/em> Bina<\/em>, desiring mercy, they are regarded as never having left Rosh<\/em> AA<\/em>. Then they are called EKYEH<\/em>, which is the whole of everything, blocked, and does not become revealed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

166) After the beginning of the disclosure of Mochin<\/em> comes out of Him, and that river, YESHSUT<\/em> is conceived with ZON<\/em>, to extend everything, He is called, Asher EKYEH<\/em> […that I am]. EKYEH<\/em> [lit. I will be], I am destined to extend and beget everything; now I am the whole of everything, including every detail of every degree. Asher EKYEH<\/em> [lit. \u201c…that I will be\u201d] means that Ima<\/em>, Bina<\/em>, was impregnated and is ready to elicit all the details and reveal the name of the upper one, HaVaYaH<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Once upper AVI<\/em> are emanated and YESHSUT<\/em>, ZAT<\/em> de<\/em> Bina<\/em>, come out, and the Yod<\/em> in them exits the Avir<\/em>, and their Bina<\/em> and TM<\/em> that fell to ZON<\/em> return to their degree, to Bina<\/em>, and also take ZON<\/em> with them and raise them to Bina<\/em>, by that ZON<\/em> are regarded as having been impregnated in Bina<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

YESHSUT<\/em>, in whom the Yod<\/em> exits the Avir<\/em> and the light of Hochma<\/em> appears, are regarded as the beginning of the disclosure of the Mochin<\/em>. Their Bina<\/em> and TM<\/em> extended ZON<\/em> to Bina<\/em>, which is regarded as Bina<\/em> being impregnated with ZON<\/em> to extend everything, ZON<\/em>. At that time she is called EKYEH Asher EKYEH<\/em>, which means \u201cI am destined to extend and beget everything.\u201d By that she became ready to beget all the Mochin de<\/em> ZON<\/em>. Now I am the whole of everything, since by that she became fit to elicit all the degrees of ZON<\/em> and of BYA<\/em>, to elicit all the details and disclose the upper name, HaVaYaH<\/em>, the name of ZA<\/em> in Gadlut<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

167) Subsequently, Moses wanted to know the specifics of the matters, the actual correction of the Mochin<\/em> in YESHSUT<\/em> in three lines, from which the Mochin de<\/em> ZA<\/em> emerged and were emanated. Finally, the Creator interpreted for him and said, \u201cThus shall you say to the children of Israel: \u2018EKYEH<\/em> [I am] has sent me to you.\u2019\u201d The name EKYEH<\/em> is the specific of YESHSUT<\/em>. This is why it is not written here, Asher EKYEH<\/em> [that I am]. Asher<\/em> [that] means that the palace, which is Bina<\/em>, is connected with Eden, which is Hochma<\/em>. Asher<\/em> comes from the word Osher<\/em> [happiness]. EKYEH<\/em> means that she is ready to give birth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Through the ascent of Malchut<\/em> in the place of Bina<\/em> de<\/em> Rosh<\/em> AA<\/em>, Bina<\/em> emerged from Rosh<\/em> de<\/em> AA<\/em> to the Guf<\/em>, as it is written, \u201cAnd a river,\u201d which is Bina<\/em>, \u201ccame out of Eden,\u201d Hochma<\/em>, Rosh<\/em> de<\/em> AA<\/em>. The Ibur<\/em> of ZON<\/em> in Bina<\/em> is when Malchut<\/em> descends back from Bina<\/em> to her place, and her Bina<\/em> and TM<\/em> return to her. At that time the Rosh<\/em> de<\/em> AA<\/em> also brings back the Bina<\/em> and TM<\/em> that went out of him, and Bina<\/em>, YESHSUT<\/em>, returns to Eden. This is why at that time she is called Asher<\/em>, from the words Osher<\/em> and success, as she returned to Rosh<\/em> AA<\/em>, which is Eden.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Asher<\/em> means that the palace, which is Bina<\/em>, is connected in Eden, which is Hochma<\/em>. The palace, YESHSUT<\/em>, has been tied again to Eden in Rosh<\/em> de<\/em> AA<\/em>. At that time Bina<\/em> is in a high Zivug<\/em> with upper AVI<\/em>, for which she is called Asher<\/em>, and this is all of her success.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, afterward, at the time of birth, YESHSUT<\/em> emerge from Rosh<\/em> de<\/em> AA<\/em> once again, and part from the Zivug<\/em> with upper AVI<\/em>, and then Bina<\/em> is called simply EKYEH<\/em>, without Asher<\/em>, since she has parted from Eden.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

168) How He descended from degree to degree to announce the meaning of the holy name to Moses. In the beginning, EKYEH<\/em> is the inclusion of everything. It is blocked and not revealed at all, which are upper AVI<\/em>, as it is written, \u201cAnd I was with him as a master craftsman.\u201d It is also written, \u201cNo human knows its value, and it will not be found in the land of the living.\u201d Thus, Hochma<\/em>, upper AVI<\/em>, is blocked. It is written about it, \u201cNo human knows its value,\u201d since the Hochma<\/em> disappears in them and is not known at all.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Subsequently, upper AVI<\/em> emanated the river, upper Ima<\/em>, who conceived and is destined to give birth. It is written, Asher EKYEH<\/em>, meaning I am willing to give birth and correct everything. Afterward she began to deliver. And then it is not written, Asher<\/em>, because at the time of delivery the upper Zivug<\/em> parts. Rather, it is written, EKYEH<\/em>, which will now elicit and deliver and will correct everything.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

169) After everything came out and each was established in his place, meaning after ZA<\/em> was born and came down to his place, he left all the names and said, HaVaYaH<\/em>. This is a specific, the specific degree of ZA<\/em>, which is not connected with Ima<\/em>. It is the Mochin de<\/em> ZA<\/em>, called \u201cexistence.\u201d At that time Moses knew the meaning of the holy name that is concealed and revealed, and clung to it as no other person in the world has clung.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
