172. The words "Let us make man in our image, after our likeness" (Beresheet 1:26) indicate that MAN was composed of the six directions that comprise all - THAT IS, CHOCHMAH AND CHASSADIM - after the supernal image. Limbs are structured according to secret wisdom, according to the supernal structure. The words, "Let us make man," refer to the secret of male and female, made according to the holy supernal wisdom. ALL WAS DONE SO THAT MAN COULD RECEIVE SUPERNAL AND HOLY CHOCHMAH. AND SINCE CHOCHMAH CAN ONLY BE DRAWN THROUGH THE NUKVA, MAN WAS CREATED MALE AND FEMALE. IN THE VERSE, "In our image and in our likeness," IN WHICH IMAGE IS THE MOCHIM OF MALE AND LIKENESS IS THE MOCHIM OF FEMALE, they will construct each other, making MAN unique in the world and fit to rule over everything.
