Atonement Prayer Repentance Ten Yom Kippur

807. "And you shall have on the tenth day of this seventh month" which is the month of Tishrei, "a holy gathering" (Bemidbar 29:7), which is Yom Kippur, which is the tenth, which is Yud, and these are the Ten Days of Repentance, and five prayer services were ordained for it in order to join the Yud with the Hei, NAMELY, CHOCHMAH WITH BINAH. What is the meaning of "holy gathering"? It is to differentiate it from other days when secular work is permitted which is why scripture says: "you shall not do any work" (Ibid.).

807. וּבֶעָשׂוֹר לַחוֹדֶשׁ הַשְּׁבִיעִי, דְּאִיהוּ תִּשְׁרֵי. מִקְרָא קֺדֶשׁ יִהְיֶה לָכֶם, דָּא יוֹם הַכִּפּוּרִים. דְּאִיהוּ עֲשִׂירִי י', כָּלִיל מֵעֲשֶׂרֶת יְמֵי תְּשׁוּבָה. וְתַקִּינוּ בֵּיהּ ה' צְלוֹתִין, לְחַבְּרָא עִם ה'. מַאי מִקְרָא קֺדֶשׁ. לְאַפְרְשָׁא לֵיהּ מִשְּׁאַר יוֹמִין, דְּאִית בְּהוּ פּוּלְחָנָא דְּחוֹל. וּבְגִין דָּא, כָּל מְלֶאכֶת עֲבוֹדָה לֹא תַעֲשׂוּ.

Atonement Deeds Evil Freedom Metatron Rod Samael Serpent Slavery Tree Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil Tree of Life

808. And those days on which secular work may be done are from the side of the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil, that turned from a rod into a serpent and from a serpent back into a rod, for each person according to his deeds, and this Metatron is rod, while Samael IS serpent. But on this day, which is Yok Kippur that is called 'holy', the Tree of Life is in control, and no devil nor evil spirit joins with it, and from its side "nor shall evil dwell with You" (Tehilim 5:5), BUT IT IS THROUGHOUT GOOD. And this is why in it, in the Tree of Life, the slaves find rest and go out to freedom, and emerge from their chains.

808. דְּיוֹמִין דְּאִית בְּהוֹן מְלֶאכֶת חוֹל, אִינּוּן מִסִּטְרָא דְּעֵץ הַדַּעַת טוֹב וָרָע. דְּאִתְהַפָּךְ מִמַּטֶּה לְנָחָשׁ, וּמִנָחָשׁ לְמַטֶּה. לְכָל חַד כְּפוּם עוֹבָדוֹי, וְדָא מְטַטְרוֹן מַטֶּה, נָחָשׁ, סָמָאֵל. אֲבָל בְּהַאי יוֹמָא דְּאִיהוּ יוֹם הַכִּפּוּרִים דְּאִתְקְרֵי קֺדֶשׁ, שַׁלְטָא אִילָנָא דְּחַיֵּי, דְּלָא אִשְׁתְּתַּף עִמֵּיהּ שָׂטָן וּפֶגַע רָע. וּמִסִּטְרֵיהּ לֹא יְגוּרְךָ רָע. וּבְגִין דָּא, בֵּיהּ נַיְיחִין עַבְדִּין בְּאִילָנָא דְּחַיֵּי, וּבֵיהּ נַפְקָן לְחֵירוּת, בֵּיהּ נַפְקֵי מִשֻׁלְשְׁלֵיהוֹן.

Adonai Air Congregation Exile Fire Mishnah Oath Sin Tetragrammaton Vow Water Yud Hei Vav Hei (YHVH)

809. Those over whom there is a verdict, A VERDICT NOT TO BE CHANGED under vow or oath, it was decreed for this reason that the following shall be recited: "All vows (Aramaic Kol nidrei), bonds...they shall all of them be released and annulled. They shall not be binding, nor shall they have any power." BUT THE VERDICT SHALL BE VOIDED FROM THEM. And this is why the vow is in the name of Yud Hei Vav Hei, which is Tiferet, while the oath is in the name of Adonai, which is Malchut, for they caused their own exile BY THEIR SINS. AND NOW, by means of Chochmah and Binah, 'they will be released and annulled; they shall not be binding, nor shall they have any power'. "And all the congregation of the children of Yisrael shall be forgiven" (Bemidbar 15:26). Chesed is water, Gvurah is fire, and Tiferet is air, AND SINCE THE VOWS ARE IN TIFERET, WHICH IS AIR, the sages of the Mishnah therefore taught: release from vows hovers in the air, FOR THE RELEASE FROM CHOCHMAH AND BINAH HOVERS IN THE AIR, WHICH IS TIFERET, AND FROM THERE ANNULS THE VOW.

809. אִינּוּן דְּאִית עָלַיְיהוּ גְּזַר דִּין, בְּנֶדֶר וּבִשְׁבוּעָה, וּבְגִין דָּא תַּקִּינוּ לְמֵימַר בֵּיהּ, כָּל נִדְרֵי וְאֵיסָרֵי וְכוּ', כּוּלְהוֹן יְהוֹן שְׁבִיתִין וּשְׁבִיקִין לָא שְׁרִירִין וְלָא קַיָּימִין. וּבְגִין דָּא נֵדֶר דַּיְדֹוָ"ד, דְּאִיהוּ תִּפְאֶרֶת. וּשְׁבוּעָה דַּאֲדֺנָי, דְּאִיהוּ מַלְכוּת. דְּעַבְדּוּ עַל גָּלוּתָא דִּלְהוֹן, בְּחָכְמָה וּבִינָה יְהוֹן שְׁבִיקִין וּשְׁבִיתִין לָא שְׁרִירִן וְלָא קַיָּימִין, וְנִסְלַח לְכָל עֲדַת בְּנֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל. דְּחֶסֶד אִיהוּ מַיִם. גְּבוּרָה אֵשׁ. תִּפְאֶרֶת אַוִּיר. וּבְגִין דָּא אוּקְמוּהָ מָארֵי מַתְנִיתִין, הֵתֶּר נְדָרִים פּוֹרְחִים בַּאֲוִיר.

Adonai Flow Oath Tetragrammaton Vow Yud Hei Vav Hei (YHVH) Zeir Anpin

810. And since the oath is from Malchut, which is below the vow WHICH IS TIFERET, they taught that vows are higher than oaths, and they also taught: Everyone who swears an oath is as though he swears on the king himself, and everyone who vows a vow is as though he does so on the life of the king himself. The King himself REFERS TO Adonai, WHICH IS MALCHUT. The life of the King REFERS TO Yud Hei Vav Hei, WHICH IS ZEIR ANPIN, FROM WHOM THE LIFE FLOWS TO THE KING, WHICH IS MALCHUT. And for this reason, IT IS WRITTEN: "If a man vow a vow to Hashem" (Bemidbar 30:3), WHICH IS ZEIR ANPIN.

810. וּבְגִין דִּשְׁבוּעָה מִמַּלְכוּת, דְּאִיהִי לְתַתָּא מִינֵּיהּ. אוֹקְמוּהָ, נְדָרִים עַל גַּבֵּי שְׁבוּעוֹת עוֹלִים. וְעוֹד אוֹקְמוּהָ, כָּל הַנִּשְׁבַּע כְּאִילּוּ נִשְׁבַּע בַּמֶּלֶךְ עַצְמוֹ. וְכָל הַנּוֹדֵר כְּאִילּוּ נוֹדֵר בְּחַיֵּי הַמֶּלֶךְ. הַמֶּלֶךְ עַצְמוֹ, אֲדֺנָי. חַיֵּי הַמֶּלֶךְ, יְדֺוָ"ד. וּבְגִין דָּא כִּי יִדּוֹר נֶדֶר לַיְדֺוָ"ד.

Adonai Bone Flesh Heaven Mochin Oath Tetragrammaton Vow Wisdom Yud Hei Vav Hei (YHVH) Zeir Anpin

811. And even thus, there is another secret: The life of the King refers to Chochmah, as it is written: "wisdom gives life to those who have it" (Kohelet 7:12). THEREFORE everyone who vows on Yud Hei Vav Hei, which is Tiferet, it is as if he vowed upon Chochmah OF ZEIR ANPIN, which is YUD HEI VAV HEI FULLY SPELLED WITH ALEPH'S, THUS: Yud-Vav -Dalet, Hei- Aleph, Vav-Aleph-Vav, Hei-Aleph, which is the life of the King, WHICH IS THE LIFE OF ZEIR ANPIN. And everyone who swears an oath on Adonai is as though he swore on the King himself. This is because himself (Heb. atzmo) is supernal Ima, NAMELY, BINAH, AND IT IS as though he had sworn on her, namely, on "as it were the very (Heb. etzem) heaven for clearness" (Shemot 24:10), NAMELY, THE MOCHIN OF MALCHUT. For from the aspect of Chesed, MALCHUT IS CALLED "bone (Heb. etzem) of my bones" (Beresheet 2:23). But from the aspect of Gvurah, Malchut is called "and flesh of my flesh" (Ibid.), and in Chochmah, which is the life of Tiferet, NAMELY, ITS MOCHIN, it, TIFERET, rises up to be called 'man', WHICH IS 45 IN NUMERICAL VALUE, as it is written: "the beauty (Tiferet) of a man" (Yeshayah: 44:13). FOR TIFERET IS CALLED 'MAN' WHEN IT HAS THE MOCHIN OF CHOCHMAH, WHICH IS THE SECRET OF WHY HE IS CALLED BY YUD HEI VAV HEI FULLY SPELLED WITH ALEPH'S, THAT HAS THE NUMERICAL VALUE OF 45.

811. וְאוֹף הָכִי אִית רָזָא אַחֲרָא, חַיֵּי הַמֶּלֶךְ, חָכְמָה. הה"ד הַחָכְמָה תְּחַיֶּה בְעָלֶיהָ. כָּל הַנּוֹדֵר בַּיְהֺוָה, דְּאִיהוּ תִּפְאֶרֶת. כְּאִילּוּ נוֹדֵר בַּחָכְמָה, דְּאִיהוּ יוֹ"ד הֵ"א וָא"ו הֵ"א, חַיֵּי הַמֶּלֶךְ. וְכָל הַנִּשְׁבַּע בַּאדֺנָי, כְּאִילּוּ נִשְׁבַּע בַּמֶּלֶךְ עַצְמוֹ. עַצְמוֹ דָּא אִימָּא עִלָּאָה, כְּאִילּוּ נִשְׁבַּע בָּהּ, דְּאִיהִי עֶצֶם הַשָּׁמַיִם לָטוֹהַר. מִסִּטְרָא דְּחֶסֶד, עֶצֶם מֵעֲצָמַי. וּבָשָׂר מִבְּשָׂרִי, מִסִּטְרָא דִּגְבוּרָה, דָּא מַלְכוּת. וּבְחָכְמָה דְּאִיהִי חַיֵּי תִּפְאֶרֶת, אִיהוּ סָלִיק לְאִתְקְרֵי אָדָם, הה"ד כְּתִפְאֶרֶת אָדָם.

Adonai Atonement Door Garments Gold Hebrew Letters Prayer Purification Repentance Sanctuary Sin Soul, The Tetragrammaton White Yud Hei Vav Hei (YHVH)

812. And it is said about Yom Kippur: "and you shall afflict your souls" (Bemidbar 29:7) AND ALSO: "in the seventh month, on the tenth day of the month, you shall afflict your souls" (Vayikra 16:29). And five afflictions were decreed for it, so that small Hei, WHICH IS MALCHUT, should be purified in upper Hei, WHICH IS BINAH, OF WHOSE LEFT COLUMN, THE AFFLICTIONS ARE DRAWN, which are five prayers, to establish in Yisrael: "though your sins be like scarlet, they shall be as white as snow" (Yeshayah 1:18). And this is the secret of the crimson colored strip, WHICH WAS TIED TO THE DOOR OF THE SANCTUARY FROM INSIDE, WHICH, WHEN THE HE-GOAT REACHED THE WILDERNESS, TURNED WHITE. All the iniquities of the House of Yisrael reach to Malchut; and Repentance, which is Binah, purifies (whitens) them, for it is written about it, ABOUT MALCHUT: I AM HASHEM "that remains among them in the midst of their uncleanness" (Vayikra 16:16). And the four garments of white and the four garments of gold for apparel are THE SECRET OF Yud-Aleph-Hei-Dalet-Vav-Nun-Hei- Yud, WHICH IS THE COMBINATION OF THE LETTERS OF YUD HEI VAV HEI AND THOSE OF ADONAI. FOR THE FOUR GARMENTS OF WHITE ARE THE SECRET OF THE FOUR LETTERS OF YUD HEI VAV HEI WHILE THE FOUR GARMENTS OF GOLD ARE THE SECRET OF THE FOUR LETTERS OF ADONAI.

812. וְאִתְּמַר בְּיוֹם הַכִּפּוּרִים. וְעִנִּיתֶם אֶת נַפְשׁוֹתֵיכֶם. וּבֶעָשׂוֹר לַחֺדֶשׁ הַשְּׁבִיעִי הַזֶּה תְּעַנּוּ אֶת נַפְשׁוֹתֵיכֶם. תַּקִּינוּ בֵּיהּ ה' עִנּוּיִים, בְּגִין דְּתִתְלַבֵּן ה' זְעֵירָא בְּה' עִלָּאָה, דְּאִיהוּ ה' צְלוֹתִין. לְקַיֵּים בְּיִשְׂרָאֵל, אִם יִהְיוּ חֲטָאֵיכֶם כַּשָּׁנִים כַּשֶּׁלֶג יַלְבִּינוּ. וְהַאי אִיהוּ רָזָא דְּלָשׁוֹן שֶׁל זְהוֹרִית, בְּגִין דְּכָל חוֹבִין דְּיִשְׂרָאֵל מָטוּן לְגַבֵּי מַלְכוּת. וּתְשׁוּבָה דְּאִיהִי בִּינָה, מְלַבֶּנֶת לוֹן. בְּגִין דְּאִתְּמַר בָּהּ, הַשּׁוֹכֵן אִתָּם בְּתוֹךְ טוּמְאוֹתָם. וְד' בִּגְדֵי לָבָן, וְד' בִּגְדֵי זָהָב לְמִלְבַּשׁ, יְאֲהדֺוָנָהי.

Atonement Deeds Freedom Grades Judgment Shofar Tetragrammaton Thought Yud Hei Vav Hei (YHVH) Zeir Anpin

813. And it was decreed that a Shofar be sounded on Yom Kippur, to raise up a voice, which is Vav OF YUD HEI VAV HEI, NAMELY, ZEIR ANPIN, to freedom, WHICH IS BINAH, about which it is said: "In all their affliction He was afflicted (or: 'there was affliction for (Heb. lo) him')" (Yeshayah 63:9). 'LO' IS with Aleph and Vav, THAT IS, in how it is pronounced and written, FOR IT IS SPELLED WITH ALEPH (NO), ALTHOUGH PRONOUNCED WITH VAV (FOR HIM). FOR "IN ALL THEIR AFFLICTION" ALLUDES TO FIVE AFFLICTIONS AND THE JUDGMENTS WHOSE SOURCE IS IN BINAH, IN ITS LEFT COLUMN. AND IN THE SECRET OF THE SHOFAR BLOWING, ZEIR ANPIN IS ALSO RAISED UP THERE TO BINAH, AND THIS IS WHY THERE ARE TWO VERSIONS OF THE TEXT, AS WRITTEN AND AS READ, WITH AN ALEPH AND WITH A VAV, WHERE THE ALEPH ALLUDES TO BINAH, IN THE SECRET OF TEACH (HEB. ALEPH) BINAH, AND THE VAV ALLUDES TO ZEIR ANPIN THAT ASCENDED TO BINAH. And worship on Yom Kippur is conducted at length and comprises three grades: thought, speech, and deed.

813. וְתַקִּינוּ לִתְקוֹעַ שׁוֹפָר בְּיוֹם הַכִּפּוּרִים, לְסַלְּקָא קוֹל דְּאִיהוּ ו', לְחֵרוּת. דְּאִתְּמַר בָּהּ, בְּכָל צָרָתָם לוֹ צָר, בְּא', וּבְו', קְרֵי וּכְתִיב. וַעֲבוֹדַת יוֹם הַכִּפּוּרִים אִיהִי בַּאֲרִיכוּת, וְאִיהִי כְּלִילָא מִתְּלַת דַּרְגִּין, בְּמַחֲשָׁבָה דִּבּוּר וּמַעֲשֶׂה.
