19) Man\u2019s soul, when a man sleeps at night, his soul rises from the earth to the firmament and stands in that upper radiance, and the Creator visits her.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
20) Each soul of a righteous, since she stands in the place of His glory, is worthy of receiving illumination of Hochma, standing, and she is worthy of sitting with her, to receive the clothing of Hassadim, which is sitting. The Creator, ZA, called upon the patriarchs, HGT, His three lines, and told them, \u201cGo visit so and so, the righteous who arrived, and greet him on My behalf,\u201d meaning that the three lines will bestow upon her the illumination of the coupling called \u201cgreeting.\u201d \u201cOn My behalf\u201d is the Nukva, and they say, \u201cGod almighty, he is not worthy of the father going to see his son. The son should see and behold and come to meet his father.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In the beginning, ZA illuminated for the soul the illumination of the right line, \u201cAbraham,\u201d Holam. Afterwards, he illuminated for her the illumination of the left line, \u201cIsaac,\u201d Shuruk, and a division between the two lines occurred. Then the soul was blocked, and the illumination of the two lines departed from the soul and they returned to ZA. They said to Him, \u201cMaster of the world, it is unbecoming for a father to go see his son,\u201d since she was blocked and cannot receive from him. \u201cRather, the son should see and behold, and ask about his father,\u201d meaning that the soul should raise MAN from the screen of Hirik, and then the middle line, Jacob, will awaken. At that time, the soul will be able to receive our illumination.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
21) And the Creator calls Jacob and tells him, \u201cYou, who suffered raising sons, go and greet so and so, the righteous who came here, and I will go with you.\u201d It is written, \u201cWho seek your face, even Jacob. Selah,\u201d referring to the souls of the righteous that Jacob the patriarch would greet, and they sought his face.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Jacob is the middle line. Sons is the birth of Mochin. The affliction of the son is the screen of Hirik that diminishes the level from GAR to VAK and thus causes sorrow. But it is impossible to bear sons, Mochin, except with that screen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
After the soul raised MAN to Jacob, meaning he attracted the screen of Hirik on which the middle line\u2014which is Jacob\u2014emerges, she told him, \u201cYour way is to draw Mochin on the screen of Hirik; make this coupling for the soul. Go and greet (lit. receive the face) of the righteous so and so, who came here.\u201d Face is Hochma. Greeting [receiving the face] is clothing of Hochma in Hassadim. And eliciting the level of Hassadim and clothing Hochma in Hassadim is called \u201cgreeting.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
22) Jacob the patriarch is the throne of glory. The Creator made a covenant only with Jacob, more than the making of covenants with all his fathers. He made that throne for His dwelling only from the first ones because the first ones, Abraham and Isaac, cannot shine without him. This is why he includes their illumination in himself and becomes a throne in and of itself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
23) It is written, \u201c[He will make them] inherit the throne of glory.\u201d This is Jacob the patriarch, who made that throne in itself, to receive the Torah for the souls of the righteous. And the meaning of the words is the \u201cthrone of glory,\u201d meaning the law of Jacob, who became the throne, will inherit them to the souls of the righteous.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
24) The Creator walks with Jacob every beginning of the month. When the soul sees the glory of the mirror, which is the Shechina of her Maker, the soul blesses and bows before the Creator, as it is written, \u201cBless [the Lord] my soul.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
25) The Creator stands over the soul, and the soul opens and says, \u201cO Lord my God, You are very great.\u201d She praises the Creator for the body that remains in this world, too, and says, \u201cBless the Lord, my soul, and all that is within me,\u201d indicating to the body. Thus, first the soul praises the Creator for her own attainment, and then she says, \u201cBless the Lord, my soul, O Lord my God, You are very great.\u201d Afterwards, she praises Him for the body, too, for the splendor of the soul is extended downward and shines to the body. Then she says, \u201cBless the Lord, my soul, and all that is within me, the name of His holiness.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
26) And the Creator walks with Jacob, as it is written, \u201cAnd the Lord appeared to him by the Oaks of Mamre,\u201d and Jacob is called \u201cMamre.\u201d The name \u201cMamre\u201d is because Jacob inherited two hundred worlds from Eden, and he is a throne, for he became a throne in and of itself. Mamre is 281 in Gematria; hence, the two hundred of Eden that Jacob was awarded, as it is written, \u201cAnd two hundred are for those who keep its fruit.\u201d Eighty-one, in Gematria, is a chair, thus 281 in Gematria are Mamre.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Two hundred worlds from Eden is the Hochma, called \u201cEden,\u201d and the chair is for the Hassadim that clothe the Hochma. This is why it is written, \u201cAnd the Lord appeared to him by the Oaks of Mamre,\u201d and this is the reason why Jacob is called \u201cMamre,\u201d for he contains Eden and throne, which are the name Mamre.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
27) \u201cBy the Oaks of Mamre.\u201d Oaks means mighty and strong, and Mamre is Jacob, as it is written, \u201cThe Mighty One of Jacob.\u201d It is written, \u201cWhile he was sitting at the tent door in the heat of the day,\u201d and it is written, \u201cLord, who will dwell in Your tent?\u201d In other words, the tent door is illumination of the right line, covered Hassadim, illumination of the point of Holam, MI of Elokim, implied in the word \u201cwho\u201d in the verse \u201cWho will dwell in Your tent?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cIn the heat of the day,\u201d as it is written, \u201cBut unto you that fear My name shall the sun of righteousness arise with healing in its wings.\u201d This refers to the illumination of the left line, the illumination of the point of Shuruk, ELEH of Elokim, illumination of Hochma without Hassadim, called \u201cthe coming out of the sun from its sheath,\u201d since the light of Hochma shines only in a sheath of Hassadim. And when it shines without Hassadim, it burns, as it is written, \u201cIn the heat of the day.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
At that time, the wicked are sentenced in it, but the righteous are healed by it, since they disclose MAN and draw Hassadim to clothe the Hochma. This is what The<\/em> Zohar<\/em> implies in its interpretation of \u201cin the heat of the day,\u201d in the verse, \u201cBut unto you that fear My name shall the sun of righteousness arise with healing in its wings.\u201d This teaches us that this light of the sun heals only in its wings, in the clothing of Hassadim that cover the force of the sun like wings. And before the arrival of the wings from the middle line, it is \u201cin the heat of the day,\u201d and at that time, it burns.<\/p>\n\n\n\n 28) At the time when the soul is \u201cin the heat of the day,\u201d the Creator, ZA, goes to bestow upon the soul. This means that He walks from place to place, in three places. He also walks from the tent door\u2014the hidden Hassadim in MI, right line\u2014to \u201cin the heat of the day,\u201d ELEH, meaning left line, and afterwards to Jacob\u2019s place, the middle line.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Since the patriarchs Abraham and Isaac heard that the Creator, ZA, is going to the soul, they sensed that the soul was in a state of \u201cin the heat of the day,\u201d that she needed a place for clothing the Hassadim. Hence, they asked Jacob to go with them and greet the soul, meaning to draw over his screen of Hirik the level of Hassadim that decides between Abraham and Isaac, at which time the Hochma clothes in Hassadim, which is peace [also greeting in Hebrew]. It is called \u201cpeace\u201d because prior to the determining of the level of Hassadim, the two lines are disputed. But through the level of Hassadim, the middle line, peace is made between them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n 29) And Abraham and Isaac were standing over the soul, meaning after Jacob imparted the Hassadim in the greeting, and shone upon her the two lines\u2014Abraham and Isaac\u2014as well, as it is written, \u201cAnd he lifted up his eyes and saw,\u201d meaning the soul, \u201cAnd behold, three men were standing opposite him.\u201d The three men are the patriarchs\u2014Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob\u2014standing opposite him and seeing the good deeds that the soul has done, meaning they see the MAN of the soul and impart her with Mayin Duchrin [Aramaic: male water].<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cAnd when he saw them, he ran from the tent door to meet them and bowed himself to the earth,\u201d since she saw the presence of His glory with them, as it is written, \u201cYour oils are good for fragrance, Your name is purified oil; therefore, the maidens love you.\u201d Fragrance is the MAN that the soul raises, to draw Jacob\u2019s illumination of peace, the level of Hassadim, when the level of Hassadim is clothed. Hence, \u201cYour oils are good,\u201d since the Mochin are received in the good oil.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cPurified oil\u201d means \u201cin the heat of the day,\u201d when the two lines depart the soul and cannot shine. At that time, it is considered that the oil, the Mochin, is emptied from the soul, the illumination of the point of Shuruk. However, afterwards, at the coming of Hassadim from Jacob, the illumination of Hochma is obtained from that point of Shuruk. \u201cYour name is purified oil\u201d means that during the illumination of the point of Shuruk, Your name is attained, the revelation of the Shechina, the name of the Creator.<\/p>\n\n\n\n And yet, the soul\u2019s only craving is to draw the Hassadim of the right line, MI. This is why the verse ends, \u201cTherefore the maidens love you,\u201d meaning the concealed Hassadim from MI, GAR of Bina, from which the souls particularly like to draw. This is what is explained in the words, \u201cWhen he saw,\u201d meaning the revelation of the Shechina through the illumination of Shuruk after it clothes in Hassadim. At that time, he ran to meet them, to receive from the tent door, MI, as it is written, \u201cTherefore the maidens love you,\u201d meaning the Hassadim that are covered from Hochma, which are called \u201cmaidens\u201d that the souls love.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" 19) Man\u2019s soul, when a man sleeps at night, his soul rises from the earth to the firmament and stands […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"parent":7813,"menu_order":0,"template":"","meta":{"site-sidebar-layout":"default","site-content-layout":"","ast-site-content-layout":"","site-content-style":"default","site-sidebar-style":"default","ast-global-header-display":"","ast-banner-title-visibility":"","ast-main-header-display":"","ast-hfb-above-header-display":"","ast-hfb-below-header-display":"","ast-hfb-mobile-header-display":"","site-post-title":"","ast-breadcrumbs-content":"","ast-featured-img":"","footer-sml-layout":"","theme-transparent-header-meta":"","adv-header-id-meta":"","stick-header-meta":"","header-above-stick-meta":"","header-main-stick-meta":"","header-below-stick-meta":"","astra-migrate-meta-layouts":"default","ast-page-background-enabled":"default","ast-page-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"ast-content-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}}},"topic":[28],"class_list":["post-7815","book","type-book","status-publish","hentry","topic-zohar"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\n
