David invited Him to rest; he invited the King and the queen with Him, as it is written, \u201cArise, O Lord, unto Your resting-place,\u201d You,\u201d the King, \u201cAnd the ark of Your strength,\u201d the Nukva, so as to not separate them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cArise\u201d is extension of Hochma and GAR. There are two kinds of rising: 1) Drawing illumination of Shuruk, illumination of Hochma without Hassadim, to surrender the enemies, the Sitra Achra. She surrenders by the illumination of Hochma. And at that time, there is coupling for ZON because then the dominion is in the left line, not the right line, ZA. 2) Drawing illumination of Hochma in the left line, the point of Shuruk, to complete the Hassadim in GAR with her by the incorporation of the two lines. At that time, the Hassadim come, the rest, which is the final perfection after which there is nothing more to add. It turns out that this extension is an invitation for a coupling of ZON. Once ZA, the right line, has been completed during the coupling from the illumination of Hochma in the Nukva, he bestows complete light of Hassadim upon the Nukva. This is considered GAR, which is rest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is the difference between Moses and David. Since Moses is a Merkava [chariot\/structure] for ZA, the queen\u2019s husband, he had the strength to draw the first kind of rising to the Nukva, meaning the illumination of the left without right. And although it then separates her from her husband, there is nothing to it because once she discloses her illumination and the enemies surrender, he promptly brings her back to him and bestows upon her Hassadim, and she is completed with both Hochma and Hassadim together. This is why he initially said, \u201cArise, O Lord, and let Your enemies be scattered,\u201d drawing illumination of Hochma to her, from left without right, to disperse the enemies. But soon after, \u201cArise, O Lord,\u201d bringing her back for a coupling, the tens of thousands of Israel. Now she has obtained Hassadim and Hochma because tens of thousands are Hassadim and thousands are Hochma.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Since he is a Merkava [structure\/carriage] for ZA, her husband, he could command her as he wished, and even separate her from him for a moment. This is why he commanded her to subdue the enemies, being the first kind of rising, although she was separated from him, since he promptly brought her back for a coupling, saying, \u201cReturn, O Lord, unto the tens of thousands of Israel.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But David invited and extended the second kind of rising to the Nukva\u2014for the rest\u2014to increase the Hassadim in GAR, the final perfection. It turns out that he extended the rising to the Nukva only so as to increase the Hassadim in ZA. This is like a man who invites his master to his home. Even though he invited the rising to the Nukva, it was only for his master, ZA.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He invited the king and the queen with him means that the queen, the Nukva, who received the rising, will be integrated with the king, who is Hassadim, in a coupling, and through this incorporation the Hassadim of ZA will obtain their GAR at rest, as it is written, \u201cArise, O Lord, unto Your resting-place.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This means that he invited the rising for the rest, to increase the Hassadim in GAR. \u201cYou, and the ark of Your strength,\u201d meaning the Nukva, so as to not separate them, so the coupling that is implied in the words, \u201cYou,\u201d meaning ZA, and \u201cThe ark of Your strength,\u201d the Nukva, to not stop. This is so because had he extended the rising of the first kind, it would have created separation between ZON, as with Moses. And since David was only a Merkava to the Nukva, he did not wish to cause that for even a minute.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>36) \u201cYour priests shall wear righteousness, and Your adherents shall sing.\u201d One who invites the King should change his actions to bring joy to the King. If it is the conduct of the King that entertainers from among the commoners delight Him, he should arrange for distinguished entertainers and great ministers to come before Him. If he does not do so, he will not complete the King\u2019s joy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>37) King David invited the King and queen to rest. When he said, \u201cArise O Lord unto Your resting-place,\u201d he changed the entertainers of the king so they would be distinguished ministers, as it is written, \u201cYour priests shall wear righteousness, and Your adherents shall sing.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He said, \u201cAnd Your adherents shall sing.\u201d It should have said, \u201cYour Levites shall sing,\u201d since the Levites are the King\u2019s entertainers. But now that David invited the King to rest, he made the priests and adherents be the King\u2019s entertainers, and not the Levites.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is so because the joy of the King, ZA, comes from drawing the Mochin of illumination of Hochma in the left line, which is wine that delights God and people. Hence, since the Levites are from the left line, they draw this illumination and are regarded as those who delight the King. It should have said, \u201cYour Levites shall sing\u201d because they are the ones who draw Mochin of singing and joy, since they are considered left. So why does it say, \u201cYour adherents,\u201d who are right and draw only Hassadim, \u201cShall sing\u201d?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>David invited the King and queen to rest, saying, \u201cArise O Lord unto Your resting-place,\u201d inviting the first kind of rising, extension of illumination of Hochma on the left, meaning enhancement of GAR of Hassadim, which brings them to rest, to their final completion. It turns out that by changing the King\u2019s entertainers and proprietors of the right\u2014who always draw Hassadim\u2014meaning the priests and the adherents, they have now become a Merkava for the illumination of Hochma in the left, which is called \u201cwine that delights God and people.\u201d Thus, they have become the King\u2019s entertainers and not the Levites. He turned the priests and the adherents into the King\u2019s entertainers, and this is why he said, \u201cAnd Your adherents shall sing,\u201d and not, \u201cYour Levites shall sing.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>38) The Creator said to David, \u201cI do not wish to trouble the priests and the adherents so they would draw illumination of the left because they are as it is written, \u2018For he delights in mercy.\u2019\u201d David replied, \u201cMy Master, when You are in Your palace, You do as You wish,\u201d like Moses, ZA, who said, \u201cArise O Lord, and let Your enemies be scattered,\u201d which is illumination of the left when it is for itself. At that time, only the Levites are the King\u2019s entertainers, and not the priests or the adherents. \u201cNow that I have invited You, it depends on my wish, which is to bring those who are the most important to You\u2014the priests and the adherents\u2014so they will be entertainers before You, although it is not their usual manner, since they are \u2018for he delights in mercy.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>39) This teaches us that one who is in his home can arrange his ways and actions as he wishes. But if he is invited, he will follow his host\u2019s wish, as he arranges before him, since David replaced the Levites and placed the priests in their stead, and the Creator kept it as he wished.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>40) David said, \u201cFor the sake of David Your servant, do not turn away the face of Your anointed.\u201d The arrangement that I have arranged will be turned back, will not be revoked. The Creator told him, \u201cI will not even use My vessels, but your vessels.\u201d The Creator did not move from there until he gave Him abundant gifts, as it is written, \u201cThe Lord swore unto David in truth; He will not turn back from it: \u2018Of your own progeny will I set upon your throne.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>34) \u201cArise, O Lord, unto
