26) \u201cAnd he called his son Joseph.\u201d Jacob questioned his sons and told them, \u201cI see many and great troubles coming over your children. It is necessary to find higher mercy [mercy].<\/p>\n\n\n\n
27) \u201cAnd if you wish to be out of all the troubles, swear to me and we will place the Maker of the world between us forever, so you will practice truth and judgment and will be as your fathers. And you will command this in each generation following you. If you wish to do so, you will come out of all the troubles that will come upon you.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
28) And he called only his son Joseph, and not all the tribes, as it is written, \u201cAnd present justice in the gate; perhaps the Lord … will pardon the remnant of Joseph.\u201d All of the children of Israel are called \u201cJoseph.\u201d Here, too, the name Joseph includes all the tribes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
29) Jacob said, \u201cIf you do so, you will not bury any of my sons in Egypt, but bring me back to your land in peace.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
30) \u201cAnd he called his son joseph and said to him, \u2018If I have found favor in Your eyes, put your hand under my thigh.\u2019\u201d What is \u201cyour hand\u201d? It is written, \u201cGird your sword upon your thigh, O mighty one, Your glory and thy majesty.\u201d And also, \u201cYour hand under my thigh\u201d means a sword. A sword has Hesed and truth, Yesod, in which there is light of Hassadim and light of Hochma, which is called \u201ctruth,\u201d and is called \u201cthe light of the face.\u201d It is written about it, \u201cMercy and truth will go before Your face.\u201d The face of the Creator is their share.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Had his sons been good and done what they had taken upon themselves, none of their sons would have died in Egypt, since the abundance that the Creator sentences to people is only on condition that they are good. As David said, \u201cThat the Lord may fulfill His word, which He spoke concerning me, saying, \u2018If your children keep their way, to walk before Me in truth.\u201d And if not, then not.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
31) How fairer is the spirit of the father than the spirit of the son? The spirit of the father is the spirit of the son, spirit that is extended from spirit. Thus, the preeminence of the spirit of the father over him is as the value of the root compared to its branch. If there is assistance of another air in the spirit of the son\u2014from the Sitra Achra\u2014he is born incomplete, since he becomes deficient by that air of the Sitra Achra.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
33) \u201cAnd … said, \u2018Swear to me,\u2019 and he swore to him,\u201d as it is written, \u201cThe Lord has sworn by His right hand, and by the arm of His strength.\u201d \u201cThe Lord has sworn,\u201d to deliver Israel from their exile. This is what He swore to them. \u201cAnd he swore to him\u201d relates to the Creator, too, who swore that He would not leave them in the land of their enemies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
34) \u201cThen he said, \u2018Let me go, for the dawn is breaking.\u2019 But he said, \u2018I will not let you go unless you bless me.\u2019\u201d What is, \u201cYou bless me\u201d? It is the blessing that the angel blessed him\u2014giving them exile and swearing that he would redeem them from it, as it is written, \u201cYour name shall no longer be Jacob, but Israel,\u201d since the name, Israel, contains judgment and mercy, exile and redemption, and the exile is a direct cause of the redemption.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
35) The Creator is destined to make it so that each of the sons of Israel will be under His throne, and they will be more important than all the angels above. This is the reason why you find a long Vav in the Torah, such as the Vav from the verse, \u201cWhatsoever goes on the belly\u201d [Gahon (belly) is written with a long Vav, \u05d2\u05d7\u05d5\u05df], which implies that the Creator swore to the perfection of six generations\u2014Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Moses, Aaron, and Joseph\u2014the six Sefirot HGT NHY. And because of those six, it is written, \u201cAnd Israel bowed down upon the bed’s head,\u201d since Israel is ZA, which includes HGT NHY. Israel\u2019s bowing implies that the Messiah will come at the end of the six thousand years, which implies to the six complete Sefirot, HGT NHY, related to his clothing of upper AVI, whose Sefirot are one thousand each, and the Shechina will be with them.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
