121. At the end of all those gates, He set up a gate with many locks, many openings, and many chambers one on top of the other. He said, "Whoever wants to reach Me must first pass through this gate. Whoever enters THROUGH this gate, may enter!" The same applies here, as the first gate to Supernal Wisdom is the "Fear of Hashem," WHICH IS MALCHUT. This is why IT IS CALLED 'The beginning'.
121. וּלְסוֹף כָּל תַּרְעִין עֲבַד תַּרְעָא חַד בְּכַמָּה מַנְעוּלִין, בְּכַמָּה פִּתְחִין, בְּכַמָּה הֵיכָלִין, אִלֵּין עַל אִלֵּין. אֲמַר כָּל מַאן דְּבָעֵי לְמֵיעַל לְגַבָּאי, תַּרְעָא דָא יְהֵא קַדְמָאָה לְגַבָּאי, מָאן דְּיֵעוֹל בְּהַאי תַּרְעָא יֵעוֹל. אוֹף הָכֵי, תַּרְעָא קַדְמָאָה לְחָכְמָה עִלָּאָה, יִרְאַת ה' אִיהִי, וְדָא אִיהִי רֵאשִׁית.
