If a person has crooked and dark eyes, there is Lilit there, who is blackness and darkness, a black vessel. In eyes that are black and crooked, there is certainly Shabtai [Saturn] there, of whom it is written, \u201cThe curse of the Lord in the house of a wicked,\u201d since that color of darkness controls the other colors in the eye.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>137. Those whom Lilit or Shabtai look at with those eyes of theirs, curses and poverty, and hunger and death will soon come upon him. Beware of him, for it is written about him, \u201cHer legs go down to death; her steps support the netherworld.\u201d And a negotiation that a person does before those with such eyes, Lilit and Shabtai, is doomed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>138. On weekdays, one must not be in satiation before him, before someone with these eyes, but on Shabbat [Sabbath], it is permitted since he has no control over him, since on Shabbat, all the shells surrender. If he is in satiation before him on weekdays, and he looks at him with his evil eye, that person is not saved from him, from death or from poverty. The nose and the mouth and the face of a man with these eyes are not in a straight line.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>139. One who has beautiful black eyes, in a straight line, they are from the side of Shabbat, who is a beautiful pupil. It is written about it, \u201cI am black, and lovely.\u201d That person is in the form of Shabbat, which is tantamount to all of the Torah.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>140. On Shabbat, one must show satiation, opposite from the maidservant Lilit, who is always in deficiency. And instead of the sadness of Shabtai, he should show joy. In a dark place, there should be a candle, and in a place of torment, there should be pleasure, and to make a change there in everything.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>141. Lilit is a black bitterness [melancholy], thirst in which there is no water, since she is as it is written, \u201cAnd the pit was empty; there was no water in it,\u201d but there were snakes and scorpions in it. The mixed-multitude are her snakes and scorpions, and Joseph, who was cast into that pit, implies Israel, who are in exile in her, in that pit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>142. One who honors the Shabbat is as it is written, \u201cwill flee from her, and a sinner will be captured in her.\u201d A sinner who desecrates the Shabbat will be captured in her since she is certainly a desecration of the Shabbat, as it is written, \u201ca defiled woman or a harlot,\u201d and anyone who guards the token of the Shabbat or the token of the covenant from desecrating it is therefore called righteous, and he is saved from her. Moreover, he rises to Malchut, who is certainly Shabbat, since Shabbat is Malchut.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>143. And because Joseph observed the covenant, he was saved from the pit and from its snakes and scorpions. Moreover, he was rewarded with the Malchut [kingship]. Israel, who observe Shabbat and the token of the circumcision, we learn about them, \u201cAll of Israel are the children of kings.\u201d Had Israel observed one Shabbat properly, they would immediately be redeemed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>144. Any person who has black eyes that are straight along the measuring line, the middle line, is in pleasure, joy, and satiation. He is generous and has a kind eye. He should boast in handsome attire because he is the son of the Shabbat, the Queen\u2019s son, indeed. Conversely, if they are not straight, he is the son of Lilit.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>136.
