Circumcision Directions Grades Hands Head Judgment Mercy Precepts Shabbat Shechinah Tfilin Torah Zeir Anpin

456. All those that are marked with the signs of the Holy One, blessed be He, and His Shechinah: with the sign of Tefilin and the sign of circumcision during the week days, and are marked with 'remember' and 'keep' on the Shabbat, and they are marked by the written Torah given from the right and the Oral Torah given from the left. With the Holy One, blessed be He, 'remember' is from the right and 'keep' from the left. Also with the Shechinah 'remembering' is from the right and 'keeping' from the left. So also the Head Tefilin OF MAN STEMS FROM THE RIGHT. And the Tefilin of the hand, FROM THE LEFT. So the Shechinah is called "The Torah of Hashem is perfect" (Tehilim 19:8), FROM ITS RIGHT SIDE, and precept FROM ITS LEFT. This is all from the direction of the Central Column, NAMELY ZEIR ANPIN, that comprises Judgment and Mercy, BEING 'remember' and 'keep.' AND FROM ITS POSITION, MALCHUT is also called 'remembering' and 'keeping,' for from the standpoint of the precepts she is on an equal level with him.

456. וְכָל אִינּוּן דִּרְשִׁימִין בְּסִימָנִין דְּקוּדְשָׁא בְּרִיךְ הוּא וּשְׁכִינְתֵּיהּ, אִינּוּן רְשִׁימִין בְּיוֹמִין דְּחוֹל, בְּאוֹת דִּתְפִלִין, וּבְאוֹת דְּמִילָה. וּרְשִׁימִין בְּזָכוֹר וְשָׁמוֹר בְּשַׁבָּת. רְשִׁימִין בַּתּוֹרָה שֶׁבִּכְתָב, דְּאִתְיְהִיבַת מִימִינָא. וּבַתּוֹרָה שבע"פ, דְּאִתְיְהִיבַת מִשְּׂמָאלָא. וְקוּדְשָׁא בְּרִיךְ הוּא, זָכוֹר מִימִינָא, וְשָׁמוֹר מִשְּׂמָאלָא. וּשְׁכִינְתָּא, זְכִירָה מִימִינָא, וּשְׁמִירָה מִשְּׂמָאלָא. אִינּוּן תְּפִלִּין דְּרֵישָׁא דְּב"נ, וּתְפִלִּין דְּיָד. וְהָכִי שְׁכִינְתָּא, תּוֹרַת יְיָ' תְּמִימָה, וּמִצְוָה דִּילֵיהּ. וְהַאי מִסִּטְרָא דְּעַמּוּדָא דְּאֶמְצָעִיתָא, דְּאִיהוּ כָּלִיל דִּינָא וְרַחֲמֵי. זָכוֹר וְשָׁמוֹר. אִתְקְרִיאַת אִיהִי זְכִירָה שְׁמִירָה. וּבְכָל פִּקּוּדִין אִיהִי שָׁקִילָה לְגַבֵּיהּ בְּמַדְרֵגָה.

Body Bride Ezekiel Face Living Creatures Lulav Lungs Male Mishnah Nukva Precepts Shechinah Torah Unity Zeir Anpin

457. But from the aspect of Chesed, the Holy One, blessed be He, is considered 'remember' and the Shechinah 'keep.' The Mishnah masters have established 'remember' is applicable to the male and 'keep' to the bride. Within the right and left, FROM THE CHEST AND UP OF ZEIR ANPIN, the branches separate like the wing-like lung where they separate above. Correspondingly, the living creatures OF WHICH IT IS WRITTEN, "Thus were their faces, and their wings were divided upwards" (Yechezkel 1:11), correspond to the open Torah scroll. Now below, MEANING, FROM THE CHEST DOWN, IS FOUND THE NUKVA CALLED 'PRECEPT,' both ZEIR ANPIN AND MALCHUT are together in one unity like the closed chapters in the Torah scroll, where there is no separation. SO THEY ARE BOTH EVEN, JUST AS ZEIR ANPIN IS CALLED 'REMEMBER,' SO ALSO SHE IS CALLED 'REMEMBERING' AND 'KEEPING,' AS MENTIONED. IT IS NOT SO ABOVE THE CHEST, RIGHT AND LEFT, WHERE MALCHUT IS CALLED ONLY 'KEEP' BUT NOT 'REMEMBER.' As a result, at the place of unity, the body, MALCHUT, is similar to the spine-like stalk of the Lulav: if it breaks or splits it is rejected.

457. אֲבָל מִסִּטְרָא דְּחֶסֶד, קוּדְשָׁא בְּרִיךְ הוּא זָכוֹר, וּשְׁכִינְתָּא שָׁמוֹר. כְּמָה דְּאוּקְמוּהָ מָארֵי מַתְנִיתִין, זָכוֹר לְזָכָר, וְשָׁמוֹר לְכַלָּה. בְּגִין דְּבִימִינָא וּבִשְׂמָאלָא עַנְפִּין מִתְפָּרְדִין, כְּגַוְונָא דְּכַנְפֵי רֵיאָה, דְּאִינּוּן פְּרוּדוֹת מִלְּמַעְלָה. לָקֳבְלַיְיהוּ חֵיוָן, וּפְנֵיהֶם וְכַנְפֵיהֶם פְּרוּדוֹת מִלְּמַעְלָה. וְלָקֳבֵל פְּתוּחוֹת דְּס"ת. לְתַתָּא תַּרְוַויְיהוּ בְּיִחוּדָא חֲדָא, כְּגוֹן סְתוּמוֹת דְּס"ת, דְּלֵית תַּמָּן פִּרוּדָא. וּבְגִין דָּא, בַּאֲתָר דְּיִחוּדָא, דְּאִיהוּ גּוּפָא, דּוֹמֶה לַשִּׁדְרָה דְּלוּלָב, אִם נִפְרְצוּ, אוֹ נִפְרְדוּ עָלָיו פָּסוּל.

Angels Brit (Covenant) Covenant (Brit) Precepts Righteous Shabbat Shechinah Tfilin Torah Unity

458. In several markings did the Holy One, blessed be He, mark The children of Yisrael, so they will be recognizable to the angels. Those OF YISRAEL THAT DRAW from the right, are dependent upon the Holy One, blessed be He; those that draw from the left are dependent on the Shechinah; those dependent on the Holy One, blessed be He, and His Shechinah are in one unity. HE EXPLAINS, Those who have Torah in them are marked ON THE RIGHT with Chesed; those that did precepts are marked ON THE LEFT with Gvurah. Those who keep Tefilin, Shabbat and the Covenant are marked with the Righteous, NAMELY YESOD.

458. בְּכַמָּה רְשִׁימִין רָשִׁים קוּדְשָׁא בְּרִיךְ הוּא לְיִשְׂרָאֵל, לְאִשְׁתְּמוֹדְעָא לְגַבֵּי מַלְאָכִין. אִלֵּין דִּימִינָא, דְּתַלְיָין מְקוּדְשָׁא בְּרִיךְ הוּא. אוֹ אִלֵּין דִּשְׂמָאלָא, דְּתַלְיָין מִשְׁכִינְתָּא. אוֹ אִלֵּין דְּתַלְיָין מְקוּדְשָׁא בְּרִיךְ הוּא. וּשְׁכִינְתֵּיהּ בְּיִחוּדָא חֲדָא. וַדַּאי אִלֵּין דְּאִית בְּהוֹן תּוֹרָה, רְשִׁימִין בְּחֶסֶד. וְאִלֵּין דְּאִית בְּהוֹן מִצְוָה, רְשִׁימִין בִּגְבוּרָה. וְאִלֵּין מָארֵי דִּתְפִלִין, וְאוֹת שַׁבָּת, וְאוֹת בְּרִית, רְשִׁימִין בְּצַדִּיק.

Animals Beasts Foreskin

459. Those OF YISRAEL that are beasts and ignorant are marked by the symbol of the removal of the foreskin and the splitting of the corona, BEING TWO SIGNS OF PURITY, AND SO ARE fowl also with two signs, the crop and the peeled stomach - the removal of the crop and peel of the stomach being the signs permitting the fowl to be eaten. The two signs in animals are chewing the cud and split hoofs. All are marked with two signs, such as the foreskin and the uncovering of the corona that are removed from the holy people.

459. וּבְעִירָן, עַמֵּי הָאָרֶץ, אִינּוּן רְשִׁימִין בְּאַעְבָּרוּ דְּעָרְלָה וּפְרִיעָה. עוֹפִין, בְּזֶפֶק וּבְקֻרְקְבָן נִקְלָף, בְּאַעְבָּרוּ דְּזֶפֶק, וּקְלִיפָה דְּקֻרְקְבָן, אִינּוּן רְשִׁימִין עוֹפִין לְמֵיכַל וּבְעִירָן, בִּתְרֵי סִימָנִין, מַעֲלַת גֵּרָה, וּמַפְרֶסֶת פַּרְסָה. כֻּלְּהוּ רְשִׁימִין בִּתְרֵי סִימָנִין, כְּגַוְונָא דְּעָרְלָה וּפְרִיעָה, דְּמִתְעַבְּרִן מִעַמָּא קַדִּישָׁא.

Angels Astrology Living Creatures Pillar Planets Precepts Shechinah Stars Throne Torah Tree

460. But the students of the Torah are listed ABOVE, some in the throne, DENOTING MALCHUT, some with the angels, the four living creatures carrying the throne, some with stars and planets. Some are marked with the measures, NAMELY THE SFIROT, through which the Holy One, blessed be He, is made known. Those involved in the Torah and the precepts for the sake of the Holy One, blessed be He, and His Shechinah, not seeking any recompense but rather like a son duty bound in honor of his parents, are indeed bound. And so this is marked in the central pillar, NAMELY THE HOLY ONE, BLESSED BE HE, and His Shechinah becoming as One. One who has Torah without precepts, or precepts without Torah, so to speak, is as if there is a split within him. However, when there is both, TORAH AND THE PRECEPTS, he is comparable to a tree whose branches spread to the right and left, but the tree itself is the unifying factor in the center.

460. אֲבָל תַּלְמִידֵי חֲכָמִים, כֻּלְּהוֹן רְשִׁימִין מִנְּהוֹן, בְּכֻרְסְיָיא. וּמִנְּהוֹן, בְּמַלְאָכֵי, בְּאַרְבַּע חֵיוָן דְּכֻרְסְיָיא. מִנְּהוֹן בְּכֹכָבַיָּא וּבְמַזָּלֵי. וּמִנְּהוֹן רְשִׁימִין, דְּמִדוֹת דְּקוּדְשָׁא בְּרִיךְ הוּא אִשְׁתְּמוֹדְעִין. וְאִינּוּן דְּמִתְעַסְּקִין בְּאוֹרַיְיתָא וּבְמִצְוֹת, לִשְׁמָא דְּקוּדְשָׁא בְּרִיךְ הוּא וּשְׁכִינְתֵּיהּ, שֶׁלֹא עַל מְנָת לְקַבֵּל פְּרָס, אֶלָּא כִּבְרָא דְּאִיהוּ מְחוּיָיב בִּיקָרָא דַּאֲבוֹהי וְאִמֵּיהּ, דָּא אִתְקָשָּׁר וַדַּאי וְאִתְרְשִׁים, בְּעַמּוּדָא דְּאֶמְצָעִיתָא וּשְׁכִינְתֵּיהּ, כְּאִילּוּ בֵּיהּ הֲווֹ חַד. וּמַאן דְּאִית בֵּיהּ תּוֹרָה בְּלֹא מִצְוָה, אוֹ מִצְוָה בְּלֹא תּוֹרָה, כִּבְיָכוֹל כְּאִילּוּ הֲווֹ בֵּיהּ בְּפִרוּדָא. אֲבָל בְּדָא וְדָא, כְּאִילָנָא, דְעַנְפּוֹי מִתְפָּרְדִין לִימִינָא וְלִשְׂמָאלָא, וְאִילָנָא יִחוּדָא דְּתַרְוַויְיהוּ, בְּאֶמְצָעִיתָא.

Beasts Blue Head Mishnah Precepts Tfilin Torah Tzitzit White

461. The evildoers are without any markings of purity, they have neither head nor arm Tefilin, and are not marked by the Torah and the precepts, or by 'remember' and 'keep,' or by the blue and white of the Tzitzit ('the fringes'). Those lacking these markings are an abomination to you, not pertaining to Yisrael, but to the ignorant. Just like those LACKING CLEAN MARKINGS are abominable and detested insects, so also these people are detestable. As the Mishnah masters have established, the ignorant masses are abominable, their wives detestable and of their daughters it is written, "Cursed be he that lies with any manner of beast" (Devarim 27:21).

461. רַשִׁיעַיָּא, אִינּוּן רְשִׁימִין בְּלָא סִימָנִין דְּטָהֳרָה, אִינּוּן דְּלֵית לְהוֹן תְּפִלִּין עַל רֵישָׁא, וּדְרוֹעָא. וְאִינּוּן דְּלָא רְשִׁימִין בַּתּוֹרָה וּבַמִּצְוֹת. וְאִלֵּין דְּלָא נַטְרִין זָכוֹר וְשָׁמוֹר. וְלָא רְשִׁימִין בִּתְכֵלֶת וְלָבָן דְּצִיצִית. וְאִלֵּין דְּלָא רְשִׁימִין בְּאִלֵּין סִימָנִין, שֶׁקֶץ הֵם לָכֶם, לָאו אִינּוּן יִשְׂרָאֵל אֶלָּא עַמֵּי הָאָרֶץ. מָה אִלֵּין שֶׁקֶץ וְשָׁרַץ, אוּף אִינּוּן כֵּן, שֶׁקֶץ וְשֶׁרֶץ. כְּמָה דְּאוּקְמוּהָ מָארֵי מַתְנִיתִין, עַמֵּי הָאָרֶץ הֵם שֶׁרֶץ, וּנְשׁוֹתֵיהֶם שֶׁקֶץ. וְעַל בְּנוֹתֵיהֶם אִתְּמַר, אָרוּר שׁוֹכֵב עִם כָּל בְּהֵמָה.

Blood Eyes Precepts Punishment

462. Their demise is a public one, demise meaning poverty. Their punishment of poverty is not to be kept secret, like the case of fowl, which hints at those who perform the precepts - FOR THEIR BLOOD IS COVERED, but here it is public for the eyes of all. He EXPLAINS, A pauper is considered like a dead man. Some poverty is hidden from the eyes of man, and some is public knowledge such as the sprinkling of cattle blood where the blood is shed before all. So there are paupers whose blood is shed publicly, and they become green as corpses.

462. וּמִיתַתְהוֹן מִיתָה בְּאִתְגַּלְיָא, וְלֵית מִיתָה אֶלָּא עֲנִיּוּתָא, וּמִיתָה דַּעֲנִיּוּתָא דִּלְהוֹן, לָא יְהֵא בְּאִתְכַּסְיָא, כְּעוֹפִין דְּדַמְיָין לְמָארֵי פִּקּוּדִין, אֶלָּא בְּאִתְגַּלְּיָיא, לְעֵינֵי עַמָּא, דְּעָנִי חָשׁוּב כַּמֵּת. וְאִית עֲנִיּוּתָא בְּאִתְכַּסְיָא, מֵעֵינֵי בְּנֵי נָשָׁא. וְאִית עֲנִיּוּתָא, לְעֵינֵי כֹּלָּא. כִּזְרִיקוּ דְּדָם דִּבְהֵמָה, וּזְרִיקָתָהּ לְעֵינֵי כֹּלָּא, דְּשַׁפְכִין דָּמָא קָמֵי כֹּלָּא. הָכִי עֲנִיִּין שַׁפְכִין דָּמוֹי בְּאַנְפַּיְיהוּ, לְעֵינֵי בְּנֵי נָשָׁא, וְאִתְהַדְּרִין יְרוֹקִין כַּמֵּתִין.

Animals Death Death and the Afterlife Echad (One) Head Heaven One (Echad) Repentance Thirteen Twelve Unity

463. If they repent, do not complain before heaven, and accept death without a murmur like cattle experiencing death without a sound, and they confess saying, 'I am speechless to speak back, nor can I lift my head in arrogance.' If they will confess and declare the unity of the Holy One, blessed be He, AND ACCEPT UPON THEMSELVES to die, pronouncing 'one (Heb. echad)' with the twelve checks with the SLAUGHTERING knife of animals, PLUS the knife ITSELF NOW THIRTEEN EQUALING, THE FIGURE echad (= 13).

463. וְאִי הַדְרִין בְּתִיוּבְתָּא, וְלָא פַּתְחִין פּוּמְהוֹן לְהַטִּיחַ דְּבָרִים כְּלַפֵּי מַעְלָה וּמִיתָה דִּלְהוֹן בִּסְתִימוּ דְּפוּמָא, כִּבְעִירָא דְּאִיהִי מֵיתָא, וְלֵית לָהּ קוֹל וְדִבּוּר. וּבְוִידוּי הָכִי יֵימָא אִיהוּ, אֵין לִי פֶּה לְהָשִׁיב, וְלֹא מֵצַח לְהָרִים רֹאשׁ, וְיִתְוַדֶּה וּמְיַיחֵד לְקוּדְשָׁא בְּרִיךְ הוּא בְּכָל יוֹמָא, לְמֶהֱוֵי מִיתָתֵיהּ בְּאֶחָד. כְּגַוְונָא דִּשְׁחִיטַת בְּהֵמָה, בִּתְרֵיסַר בְּדִיקוֹת דְּסַכִּין, וּבְסַכִּין דְּאִינּוּן אֶחָ"ד.

Blessing Hosts Priests Sanctification Shechinah

464. And if he blesses and sanctifies the Holy One, blessed be He, daily with the barchu ('Bless Hashem') and kedushah ('sanctification'). And when eating or drinking, such as when the priest blesses, WHO IS CHESED 'Blessed are you' represents blessing, 'that sanctified us' represents sanctification. When the spirit blesses the Holy One, blessed be He, daily with 'blessed' and sanctifies Him with the sanctification, and unifies Him with unification, which is His Shechinah, the Holy One, blessed be He, descends to that spirit with many hosts.

464. וּמְבָרֵךְ וּמְקַדֵּשׁ לְקוּדְשָׁא ב"ה בְּכָל יוֹמָא, בְּבָרְכוּ וּבִקְדוּשָּׁא, וּבְכָל אֲכִילָה וּשְׁתִיָּה דִּילֵיהּ. כְּגַוְונָא דִּמְבָרֵךְ כַּהֲנָא, בָּרוּךְ אַתָּה, הָא בְּרָכָה. אֲשֶׁר קִדְּשָׁנוּ, הָא קְדוּשָׁה. כַּד רוּחָא מְבָרַךְ לְקוּדְשָׁא בְּרִיךְ הוּא, בְּכָל יוֹמָא בְּבָרוּך, וּמְקַדֵּשׁ לֵיהּ בִּקְדוּשׁא דִּילֵיהּ, וּמְיַחֵד לֵיהּ בְּיִחוּדָא דְּאִיהוּ שְׁכִינְתֵּיהּ. קוּדְשָׁא בְּרִיךְ הוּא נָחִית עַל הַהוּא רוּחָא בְּכַמָּה מַשְׁרְיָין.
