Correction Creation Flesh Flow Jacob Lights Mochin Righteous Zeir Anpin

419. "And Hashem said, My spirit shall not strive with man forever, for he is also flesh" (Beresheet 6:3). Rabbi Elazar said, Come and behold: when the Holy One, blessed be He, created the world, He made the world, WHICH IS MALCHUT, to be used as the supernal WORLD, WHICH IS BINAH. THIS MEANS THAT ALL THE LIGHTS SHINING IN BINAH SHOULD ALSO SHINE IN MALCHUT, THE SECRET OF THIS WORLD. Now, when people are righteous and follow the correct path, the Holy One, blessed be He, reveals the spirit of life, WHICH ARE THE MOCHIN of above FROM BINAH, until this life reaches the place where Jacob abides, NAMELY ZEIR ANPIN, BECAUSE FROM BINAH THE MOCHIN FLOW THROUGH ZEIR ANPIN.

419. וַיֹּאמֶר ה' לֹא יָדוֹן רוּחִי בָּאָדָם לְעוֹלָם בְּשַׁגָּם הוּא בָּשָׂר וגו'. אֲמַר רַבִּי אֶלְעָזָר תָּא חֲזֵי, כַּד בְּרָא קֻדְשָׁא בְּרִיךְ הוּא עָלְמָא, עֲבַד לְהַאי עָלְמָא, לְאִשְׁתַּמָּשָׁא כְּגַוְונָא דִלְעֵילָא. וְכַד בְּנֵי עָלְמָא אִינוּן זַכָּאִין, דְּאָזְלֵי בְּאֹרַח מֵישָׁר, קֻדְשָׁא בְּרִיךְ הוּא אַתְעַר רוּחָא דְחַיֵּי דִּלְעֵילָא עַד דְּמָטוֹ, אִינוּן חַיִּין, לַאֲתַר דְּיַעֲקֹב שַׁרְיָא בֵּיהּ.

Blessing David Flood Flow Light Nukva

421. Hence, IT IS WRITTEN: "His kindness (Heb. chasdo) is everlasting (also: 'for the world')" (II Divrei Hayamim 20:21). CHASDO IS SPELLED WITH VAV. The world is of King David, NAMELY THE NUKVA, NURTURED BY THE VAV, THE SPIRIT OF LIFE, WHICH DRAWS LIFE TO IT. Hence, it is written: "MY SPIRIT SHALL NOT STRIVE WITH MAN for the world" without Vav, because when that spirit is drawn into the world. Blessings and life are released from it to sustain all. Yet now IN THE GENERATION OF THE FLOOD, when people sinned BY DRAWING LIGHT FROM ABOVE DOWNWARD, DISRUPTING THE CENTRAL COLUMN AND ATTACHING THEMSELVES TO THE LEFT COLUMN, everything left THIS WORLD. Thus, the spirit of life ceased flowing into this world for the pleasure and sustenance of the lower beings. HENCE, OLAM IS SPELLED WITHOUT VAV, WHICH IS THE CENTRAL COLUMN AND THE SPIRIT OF LIFE, BECAUSE THEY DEFILED IT AND ATTACHED THEMSELVES TO THE LEFT.

421. וּבְגִינֵי כָּךְ, לְעוֹלָם חַסְדּוֹ. דָּא הוּא עוֹלָם, דְּדָוִד מַלְכָּא. וּבְגִין כָּךְ כְּתִיב לְעֹלָם בְּלָא וָא"ו. דְּהָא כַּד הַהוּא רוּחָא אִתְנְגִיד לְהַהוּא עוֹלָם. מִתַּמָּן נָפְקֵי בִּרְכָאן וְחַיִּין לְכֹלָא, לְאִתְקָיְימָא. הַשְׁתָּא דְּחָבוּ בְּנֵי נָשָׁא, אִסְתַּלַּק כֹּלָּא. בְּגִין דְּלָא יִמְטֵי הַהוּא רוּחָא דְחַיֵּי לְהַאי עוֹלָם, לְאִתְהַנָּאָה מִנֵּיהּ תַּתָּאֵי, וּלְאִתְקָיְימָא בֵּיהּ.

Angel of Death Angels Flesh Grades Holiness (Kedushah) Kedushah (Holiness) Serpent Tower Year

422. "For he is also flesh." Therefore the spirit OF LIFE will not be drawn into the world. The reason is to prevent the serpent, CALLED 'FLESH,' the lowest of all levels, from increasing in power THROUGH THE SPIRIT OF LIFE. It is also to assure that the Holy Spirit will not have to mix with the spirit of defilement OF THE SERPENT. The verse, "...for he is also flesh," teaches us that the primeval serpent IS ALSO FLESH, AND might also be blessed BY THE SPIRIT OF LIFE. Hence, THE SERPENT is called 'flesh', as it is written: "The End of all Flesh came before Me" (Beresheet 6:13). Rabbi Shimon said that THE PRIMAL SERPENT, CALLED FLESH, is the Angel of Death. The words, "His days will be 120 years" (Beresheet 6:3), means the gift of an attached tower.
