Honey Jacob Milk Myrrh Rachel Spices Thigh Wine

594. He began by quoting: "I am come into my garden..." (Shir Hashirim 5:1). And in the first compilation HE SAYS: "I have gathered my myrrh with my spice" refers to the right arm over the left leg. "I have eaten my honeycomb with my honey" refers to Jacob with Rachel. "I have drunk my wine with my milk" refers to the left arm on the right leg. THE EXPLANATION OF THIS IS: The right arm on the left leg are Chesed with Hod. Jacob with Rachel are the Central Column, WHICH IS TIFERET, along with Malchut. Left arm with right leg are Gvurah with Netzach.

594. פָּתַח וְאָמַר, בָּאתִי לְגַנִּי וְכוּ', וּבְחִבּוּרָא קַדְמָאָה, אָרִיתִי מוֹרִי עִם בְּשָׂמִי, דְּרוֹעָא יְמִינָא בְּיַרְכָא שְׂמָאלָא. אָכַלְתִּי יַעְרִי עִם דִּבְשִׁי, יַעֲקֺב בְּרָחֵל. שָׁתִיתִי יֵינִי עִם חֲלָבִי, דְּרוֹעָא שְׂמָאלָא בְּיַרְכָא יְמִינָא. דְּרוֹעָא יְמִינָא בְּיַרְכָא שְׂמָאלָא, אִינּוּן חֶסֶד עִם הוֹד. יַעֲקֺב בְּרָחֵל, עַמּוּדָא דְּאֶמְצָעִיתָא בַּמַּלְכוּת. דְּרוֹעָא שְׂמָאלָא בְּיַרְכָא יְמִינָא גְּבוּרָה בְּנֶצַח.

David Grades Levites Priests Sacrifice

595. HE ASKS: Why did He so change His attributes? AND HE ANSWERS, the secret that is here stated is because David said here: "Let Your priests be clothed with righteousness; and let Your pious ones shout for joy" (Tehilim 132:9). And we learned there that he should have said 'Your Levites'. The Holy One, blessed be He, said: 'It is not my way to change my attributes, but since you have invited Me, I have to do your will.' And we further learned that even when a householder invites the king, the latter has to do the will of the former. It was thus taught: 'Whatever the host tells you to do, do, except 'leave''. Nevertheless, for all that this secret is beautiful, it is still written: "For I am Hashem, I do not change" (Malachi 3:6), and indeed in respect of all the sacrifices, it is written of them for Hashem only, IN WHICH THERE IS NO CHANGE, and how could it indeed be that He would change the levels of His name with the sacrifices?

595. וַאֲמַאי שְׁנֵי מִדּוֹת דִּילֵיהּ הָכִי. אֶלָּא רָזָא דְּנֵימָא הָכָא, דָּוִד אָמַר הָכָא, כֺּהֲנֶיךָ יִלְבְּשׁוּ צֶדֶק וַחֲסִידֶיךָ יְרַנֵּנוּ. וְאִתְּמַר הָתָם, וּלְוִיֶּיךָ מִבָּעֵי לֵיהּ לְמֵימַר. אָמַר קוּדְשָׁא בְּרִיךְ הוּא לָאו אֺרַח לְשַׁנּוֹת מִדּוֹתַי, אֶלָּא בָּתַר דְּזַמֵּינָת לִי, אִית לִי לְמֶעְבַּד רְעוּתָךְ. וּמֵהָכָא אוֹלִיפְנָא, דְּבַעַל הַבַיִת דִּמְזַמִּין אֲפִילּוּ לְמַלְכָּא, אִית לֵיהּ לְמֶעְבַּד רְעוּתֵיהּ. ובג"ד אוֹקְמוּהָ, כָּל מַה שֶׁאוֹמֵר לָךְ בַּעַל הַבַּיִת עֲשֵׂה חוּץ מִצֵּא. וְעִם כָּל דָּא דְּרָזָא דָּא שַׁפִּיר אִיהוּ, הָא כְּתִיב אֲנִי יְיָ' לֹא שָׁנִיתִי, וּבְכָל קָרְבְּנִין לָא כְּתִיב בְּהוֹן אֶלָּא לַיְדֺוָד, אֵיךְ יָכִיל לְמֶהֱוֵי דִּיְּשַׁנֵּי דַּרְגִין דִּשְׁמֵיהּ בְּקָרְבְּנָא.

Amidah (Standing Prayer) Blessing Honey Light Love Milk Myrrh Prayer Sh'ma Yisrael Spices Standing Prayer (Amidah) Wine

596. HE ANSWERS, "I have gathered my myrrh" REFERS TO THE BLESSING OF 'who forms light'; "with my spice" REFERS TO 'everlasting love'. "I have eaten my honeycomb" IS THE Sh'ma Yisrael, and "with my honey" IS 'Blessed be the name of the glory of His kingdom forever and ever'. "I have drunk my wine" REFERS TO "And it shall come to pass, if you hearken" (Devarim 11:13 21) up to "And Hashem spoke," and "with my milk" refers to from "And Hashem spoke" (Bemidbar 15:37 41) up to 'True.' "Eat, O dear ones" REFERS TO the first three blessings and the last three blessings OF THE AMIDAH PRAYER, while "and drink, drink deep, O loving companions" refers to all the remaining blessings of the prayer.

596. אֶלָּא, אָרִיתִי מוֹרִי: יוֹצֵר אוֹר. עִם בְּשָׂמִי: אַהֲבַת עוֹלָם. אָכַלְתִּי יַעְרִי: שְׁמַע יִשְׂרָאֵל. עִם דִּבְשִׁי: בָּרוּךְ שֵׁם כְּבוֹד מַלְכוּתוֹ לְעוֹלָם וָעֶד. שָׁתִיתִי יֵינִי: וְהָיָה אִם שָׁמוֹעַ, עַד וַיֺּאמֶר. עִם חֲלָבִי: מִן וַיֺּאמֶר, עַד אֱמֶת. אִכְלוּ רֵעִים: ג' רִאשׁוֹנוֹת, וְג' אַחֲרוֹנוֹת. שְׁתוּ וְשִׁכְרוּ דּוֹדִים: שְׁאַר בִּרְכָאן דִּצְלוֹתָא.

Adam Doves Eagle Face Goats Grades Jacob Lion Mishnah Ox Sacrifice Sheep

597. And in the first section, HE SAID: The secret of the sacrifices is that cattle and sheep and rams and goats are the four COUNTENANCES OF the face of an ox. The face of an eagle, etc. ARE two turtledoves or two young doves, but this matter is in need of further clarification. Lion, WHICH IS CHESED, descends to the ox, which is left, WHICH IS GVURAH, in order to link Chesed with Gvurah, NAMELY THAT THEY SHOULD BE INCORPORATED WITHIN EACH OTHER. Man, WHICH IS MALCHUT, descends to the eagle, WHICH IS TIFERET, which is the level of Jacob, SO THAT TIFERET AND MALCHUT WILL UNITE WITH EACH OTHER. This is why the sages of the Mishnah taught that Jacob's beauty was that of Adam. And who caused his ascendancy so that he should be called 'Israel'? THE HOLY ONE, BLESSED BE HE, as it is written: "Your name shall be called no more Jacob, but Israel" (Beresheet 32:29) will be your name, THE MEANING OF WHICH IS that Yisrael should be the primary name to spread among them.

597. וּבְחִבּוּרָא קַדְמָאָה, סִתְרָא דְּקָרְבְּנָא, פָּרִים וּכְבָשִׂים וְעַתּוּדִים וְעִזִּים, אִינּוּן, ד' פְּנֵי שׁוֹר. פְּנֵי נֶשֶׁר וְגוֹ', שְׁתֵי תּוֹרִים אוֹ שְׁנֵי בְּנֵי יוֹנָה, וְצָרִיךְ לְפָרְשָׁא. אַרְיֵה נָחִית לְגַבֵי שׁוֹר, דְּאִיהוּ שְׂמָאלָא, לְאִתְקַשְּׁרָא חֶסֶד בִּגְבוּרָה. אָדָם נָחִית לְגַבֵּי נֶשֶׁר. דַּרְגָּא דְּיַעֲקֺב. ובג"ד אוֹקְמוּהָ מָארֵי מַתְנִיתִין, שׁוּפְרֵיהּ דְּיַעֲקֺב שׁוּפְרֵיהּ דְּאָדָם קַדְמָאָה הֲוָה. וּמַאן גָּרִים לְאִסְתַּלְּקָא לְאִתְקְרֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל, דִּכְתִּיב לֹא יַעֲקֺב יֵאָמֵר עוֹד שִׁמְךָ כִּי אִם יִשְׂרָאֵל יִהְיֶה שְׁמֶךָ, דִּיהֱוֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל עִקָּר לְאַפְרְשָׁא בֵּינַיְיהוּ.
