60. "Then it shall be seven days under its mother" (Vayikra 22:27), in order for that force APPOINTED OVER IT to settle upon it and exist in it. It will exist in it when one Shabbat has rested on it. Otherwise it does not stay, FOR PEOPLE ONLY EXIST THROUGH THE LIGHT OF SHABBAT, AS IT IS WRITTEN, "AND BY THE SEVENTH DAY ELOHIM ENDED HIS WORK, WHICH HE HAD DONE" (BERESHEET 2:2). Later, when this force exists in it, it is written, "it shall be accepted for an offering made by fire to Hashem" (Ibid.), through the existence of the one Shabbat it experienced.
61. As for man, by undergoing one Shabbat, the awakening of this world and his force, NAMELY THE ANIMAL NEFESH, are established. After he is circumcised, an awakening of the Supernal Spirit, THE SECRET OF THE NEFESH AS MENTIONED, occurs, and the Congregation of Yisrael, MALCHUT, passes over him and sees him with a holy imprint. Then she is roused towards him and the spirit of that holy world dwells on him. This is written in, "and saw you weltering in your blood, I said to you, In your blood live..." (Yechezkel 16:6), NAMELY two BLOODS.
62. You may say that when Yisrael went out of Egypt, there were among them the blood of the Pascal sacrifice and the blood of circumcision. Then it is written, "In your blood live," NAMELY THE TWO BLOODS. BUT what of "In your blood" in this case? THERE IS ONLY THE BLOOD OF CIRCUMCISION? HE ANSWERS, There ARE two, one of circumcision and one of the uncovering of the corona. The blood of circumcision is OF the Congregation of Yisrael, WHICH IS MALCHUT, while that of the uncovering is OF the Righteous, the foundation of the world, NAMELY, YESOD OF ZEIR ANPIN. Through these two bloods one attains the life of the World to Come. This is the meaning of, "In your blood live."
