It is&nbsp;<em>Mem<\/em>&#8211;<em>Bet<\/em>&nbsp;because the world was created in&nbsp;<em>Mem<\/em>&#8211;<em>Bet<\/em>&nbsp;(42) letters, meaning in&nbsp;<em>Lamed<\/em>&#8211;<em>Bet<\/em>&nbsp;(32)&nbsp;<em>Elokim<\/em>, and in ten utterances, which are&nbsp;<em>Mem<\/em>&#8211;<em>Bet<\/em>&nbsp;[42]. Also, there are&nbsp;<em>Mem<\/em>&#8211;<em>Bet<\/em>&nbsp;letters from the&nbsp;<em>Bet<\/em>&nbsp;of&nbsp;<em>Beresheet<\/em>&nbsp;through the&nbsp;<em>Bet<\/em>&nbsp;of the word \u201cand&nbsp;<em>Bohu<\/em>\u201d [\u201cand void\u201d]. This is why it was created in&nbsp;<em>Din<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>All the beginnings are hard and their ends are soft. This is so because on&nbsp;<em>Rosh Hashanah<\/em>&nbsp;[the beginning of the year],&nbsp;<em>Mem<\/em>&#8211;<em>Bet<\/em>&nbsp;is in harsh&nbsp;<em>Din<\/em>; on the day of&nbsp;<em>Shemini Atzeret<\/em>&nbsp;it is&nbsp;<em>Sof<\/em>&nbsp;in gladness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Nukva<\/em>&nbsp;was built entirely from the left line. Her entire correction is to be included in the&nbsp;<em>Hassadim<\/em>&nbsp;in the right. Hence, in the&nbsp;<em>Rosh<\/em>&nbsp;of the&nbsp;<em>Nukva<\/em>, which is&nbsp;<em>Mem<\/em>&#8211;<em>Bet<\/em>, the left is still not included in the right. This is why she is hard, since there is&nbsp;<em>Dinim<\/em>&nbsp;of the left in her, without right.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Reish<\/em>&#8211;<em>Chaf<\/em>, the end of the&nbsp;<em>Nukva<\/em>, is already entirely mingled with&nbsp;<em>Hassadim<\/em>, on the day of&nbsp;<em>Shemini Atzeret<\/em>, and then it is soft, in gladness, as it is written, \u201cBlessed be the name of the Lord.\u201d The name of the Lord, which is&nbsp;<em>Nukva<\/em>, called \u201cname,\u201d will be&nbsp;<em>Mem<\/em>&#8211;<em>Bet<\/em>&nbsp;<em>Reish<\/em>&#8211;<em>Chaf<\/em>&nbsp;[letters of&nbsp;<em>Mevorach<\/em>\u2014blessed].&nbsp;<em>Mem<\/em>&#8211;<em>Bet<\/em>&nbsp;indicates the&nbsp;<em>Rosh<\/em>&nbsp;of the&nbsp;<em>Nukva<\/em>, where it is&nbsp;<em>Rosh Hashanah<\/em>, and then it is hard.&nbsp;<em>Rach<\/em>&nbsp;[<em>Reish<\/em>&#8211;<em>Chaf<\/em>, soft], indicates the&nbsp;<em>Shemini Atzeret<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>142) What is the connection between the upper&nbsp;<em>Din<\/em>, the left line of&nbsp;<em>Bina<\/em>, Isaac, male light, and the&nbsp;<em>Din<\/em>&nbsp;of the&nbsp;<em>Nukva<\/em>? In the upper&nbsp;<em>Din<\/em>&nbsp;in the male, which shines from above downwards, the beginning and the end are hard, and there is none who can withstand these&nbsp;<em>Dinim<\/em>. Anything that goes and continues grows stronger, and after it begins, it does not leave it until it eats and consumes everything and nothing is left.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But in the other&nbsp;<em>Din<\/em>, below in&nbsp;<em>Malchut<\/em>, which is female light, who shines from below upwards, the beginning is hard, on&nbsp;<em>Rosh Hashanah<\/em>, and anything that goes and expands grows weaker, until the&nbsp;<em>Mochin de<\/em>&nbsp;<em>Panim<\/em>&nbsp;shine in&nbsp;<em>Shemini Atzeret<\/em>. This is similar to a female, whose strength weakens.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>143) When did the&nbsp;<em>Din<\/em>&nbsp;of above, from the male, awaken to be on the world? On the day of the flood. This is why at that time, nothing was left in the world except for Noah\u2019s ark. This is like the upper ark, the&nbsp;<em>Malchut<\/em>, which tolerates that fierceness of the&nbsp;<em>Din<\/em>, since she is fire that tolerates fire. If the Creator had not prepared the ark for him, and he was in mercy over the world, the whole world would have perished, as it is written, \u201cThe Lord sat enthroned at the flood,\u201d since the name&nbsp;<em>HaVaYaH<\/em>&nbsp;is&nbsp;<em>Rachamim<\/em>&nbsp;[mercy]. For this reason, henceforth, the upper&nbsp;<em>Din<\/em>&nbsp;does not stay on the world, since the world would not be able to tolerate it for even a moment.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>141) \u201cBlessed be the name of the Lord.\u201d He is blessed means His beginning is hard and His end is
