75) \u201cFor unto Me are the children of Israel servants.\u201d It is a Mitzva<\/em> to serve in all kinds of services in the Temple and outside the Temple and all those actions called \u201cwork,\u201d meaning prayer, and to exert in the Mitzvot<\/em> of the Torah. It is all called \u201cwork,\u201d like a slave who exerts after his master with everything he needs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

76) It calls Israel \u201cslaves,\u201d as it is written, \u201cFor unto Me are the children of Israel servants; they are My servants.\u201d Servants, because it is written, \u201cThat [I] brought them forth out of the land of Egypt,\u201d to serve Him as a servant serves his master, who redeemed him from death and delivered him from all the harms in the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A slave corrects the lights of Hochma<\/em> in the left, since because of the sin of Adam<\/em> ha<\/em> Rishon<\/em>, the lights and Kelim<\/em> of illumination of Hochma<\/em> of holiness declined and fell into the Klipa<\/em> of Egypt. This is the reason why Israel were forced to be slaves in the land of Egypt. Also, three discernments did these scrutinies of the left go through until they were completed in the giving of the Torah, in Neshama<\/em>, Haya<\/em>, and Yechida<\/em> of the illumination of the left, meaning correction of the left.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At that time, they took out with them the sparks and the Kelim<\/em> of the illumination of Hochma<\/em> in the left, as it is written, \u201cI am the Lord your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt.\u201d This is the continuation of the disclosure of the corrections of the left, ascribed to the work of the slave. And opposite that is the discernment of \u201cson,\u201d which extends from the middle line.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

77) By two ways are Israel called \u201cslaves\u201d in relation to the Creator, as it is written, \u201cThey are My servants,\u201d and they are called \u201csons,\u201d as it is written, \u201cYou are the children of the Lord your God.\u201d A man who knows the Creator in a general manner is called a \u201cslave,\u201d for he keeps his master\u2019s commandments. He has no permission to search in the treasures and the secrets of His house. And those who know the Creator in a particular manner are called \u201cHis beloved sons,\u201d and they are as sons that search in the secrets and the secrets of His home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The slave extends only from illumination of the left of holiness, which is corrected to shine only from below upwards, in female light, VAK<\/em>, without any doing. He knows the Creator in a general way, from below upwards, and has no permission to search in treasures and secrets of His House, since His illumination is in female light, which is prohibited from any action.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But a son clings to the middle line, to His Hassadim<\/em>, to the male light, which is imparted from above downwards, where there is GAR<\/em> and action, searching in His treasures. He knows the Creator in a particular manner, which is attached to the middle line, like a son who searches in the secrets, in all the secrets of His home, since he is the male light and GAR<\/em>, which is imparted from above downwards, where both action and searching in the King\u2019s secrets apply.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

78) And even though he is called \u201ca son,\u201d a firstborn son to the Creator, as it is written, \u201cMy son, My firstborn, Israel,\u201d He should not exclude himself from being a slave, serving his father in all the works that glorify his Father. Thus, every person should be a son to his father, to search in His secrets and to know the secrets of His home, to exert for them and to be as a slave to his father.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
