8. Any person who does and observes the commandments of the Torah, the soul is kept in his body, for the body is called an \u201cark,\u201d and he is not punished, and the angel of death does not control him. And any person who does not observe and does not uphold the commandments of the Torah, and breaches them, at that time, the angel of death controls him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
9. The ark is the body. Noah and his wife are Yod-Hey, Shem and his wife are Vav-Hey, and the complete name is done by Noah and his wife, and Shem and his wife, which are one Yod-Hey Vav-Hey. They are NRNHY of Neshama that clothe in the body, the ark. Yefet and his wife are Yod-Hey, and Ham and his wife are like Vav-Hey, but not actually Vav-Hey, and the name is incomplete with Yefet and his wife, and Ham and his wife.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
10. And God said to Noah, \u201cYou shall make a window for the ark.\u201d God is the Shechina [Divinity]. The ark is the body. You, your sons, your wife, and your sons\u2019 wives with you, meaning men for themselves and females for themselves, which are Yod-Vav Hey-Hey, indicating judgment. \u201cAnd Noah made\u201d is the holy covenant, Yesod, \u201call that God had commanded him\u201d is the Shechina.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cAnd HaVaYaH [the Lord] said to Noah, \u2018Come into the ark, you and all your household.\u2019\u201d Here, the quality of mercy is written, HaVaYaH, and not the name Elokim [God] as before, which is the quality of judgment, since he mentioned the salvation of Noah and his descendants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
11. \u201cOf all the pure beast, you shall take for you seven-seven, man and wife, and of all the beast that is not pure, two, man and wife,\u201d since it is from the side of impurity. He looked that on the side of impurity, there were only two, and there were not seven-seven in them, as it is written about the bird of the sky, seven-seven, male and female, which are fourteen, \u201cto revive the seed upon the whole earth.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It is written, \u201cthey came two-two.\u201d He did not mention seven-seven in their coming to the ark. This pertains to what is written earlier, \u201cAnd from the beast that is not pure,\u201d and it is written about this afterwards, \u201cThey came two-two.\u201d From the pure beast, they came seven, and the text relies on what is written earlier.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
12. There is not a night in which the soul, who is called a \u201cdove,\u201d does not come out from a person\u2019s body, as it is written, \u201cAnd he sent out from himself a dove, to see if the waters had receded.\u201d These are the evil waters, from the side of impurity. \u201cFrom the face of the ground,\u201d namely above the earth, which are sabotaging angels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
13. It is written, \u201cBut the dove found no resting place.\u201d The soul, who is called a \u201cdove,\u201d was denied the upper world and the righteous of above and all the blessings, as it is written, \u201cand she returned into the ark to him, for the waters were on the face of the whole earth.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
14. He took her out a second time, as it is written, \u201cAnd again he sent out the dove from the ark.\u201d Out of the duress and sorrow, \u201cthe dove\u201d the soul, \u201ccame to him in the evening,\u201d for the time of relief did not shine for them as before, and the day has become dark for her, and the sun became evening.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
15. She said to Noah and his sons, \u201cThe guards who went about the city found me.\u201d These are the guards of the gates of Jerusalem. \u201cThey struck me, they wounded me.\u201d Nevertheless, \u201cAnd behold, a freshly plucked olive leaf in her mouth,\u201d meaning that the torments, which are as bitter as olive, are pleasing to her, and they were prey in her mouth, since they polish the iniquities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This is why it is written, \u201cAnd Noah knew that the waters had receded,\u201d that the angels of holiness had overcome the sabotaging angels. \u201cSo he waited yet another seven days and sent out the dove, which did not return again to him anymore,\u201d and it is written, \u201cThe waters were dried up from the earth,\u201d meaning that the evil waters had dried up and were gone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
16. After he hid in the ark and the time when the angel of death controlled him had passed, and the wicked had passed from the world, it is written, \u201cAnd God remembered Noah.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
17. A ship is comparable to Noah\u2019s ark since there are Jewish people in it, and Ishmaelites, and the children of Esau. This is similar to what there is in the body, which consists of all seventy nations. That body, which consists of the nations, is not the body of the holy soul, but of an animate soul. This is as he said to Noah, who is Neshama to Neshama.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This is so because Noah and his wife are Yod, where Noah is Yod, Neshama to Neshama, or Haya, and his wife is Hey, Neshama, as it is written, \u201cMake for yourself an ark of gopher wood,\u201d which is the body, called \u201cNoah\u2019s ark,\u201d meaning the body that clothes the soul.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
18. It is as He said to Abram, \u201cGo forth from your land and from your kindred.\u201d Why twice, your land and your kindred? It is go from your abode and from your body. \u201cFrom your kindred\u201d means from your abode. \u201cFrom your land\u201d means from your body. \u201cAnd from your father\u2019s house\u201d means from the wholeness that you now have from above. \u201cTo the land that I will show you\u201d is the body, Noah\u2019s ark, a body that is worthy of clothing the soul.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
19. Noah was like that, as it is written, \u201cAnd he sent out the dove,\u201d meaning that the dove, the soul, was taken out from the ark, the body, and placed in the evil waters. Similarly, the dove, the soul, went out from Noah\u2019s ark, the body, and no longer returned to the body, as it is written, she \u201cdid not return again to him anymore.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
20. When Noah was in the ark, he feared that the Creator might never remember him. Once the iniquities of the world had passed, it is written, \u201cAnd God remembered Noah.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
