"Judah you are he whom your brethren shall praise"

Synopsis

Rabbi Shimon explains that the kingship was given to Judah, since he is the fourth leg of the supernal Throne and the Chariot to the attribute of Malchut. Rabbi Shimon proceeds by discussing the meaning of the verse, "The King's daughter is all glorious within." This, we learn, signifies that the Female Principle within Atzilut is clothed by and joined with Gvurah. The discourse then turns to address the verse, "So He drove out the man" This refers to Adam, who by his sin, brought death upon himself and the entire world, and drove the Female Principle out of the Garden of Eden. We learn that fiery flames guard the way to the Tree of Life, the Female Principle, which rests on the angels Metatron and Sandalfon. We also learn that after she was driven out, the Female Principle was flawed until she was rectified - first by Noah, and then by Abraham. She stood in wholeness by Abraham and his sons, and Judah cleaved to her and became stronger in his kingship because of this. Indeed, the verse, "The sons of your father shall bow down before you," signifies that all the tribes shall bow down to Judah. We also learn that Judah, referred to as a "lion," escaped the Angel of Death. The mighty Shechinah is also compared to a lion and a lioness because of her strength and because she crouches to await her prey, the idolatrous nations. Finally, we are told that the verse, "The staff shall not depart from Judah," indicates that the Shechinah shall rise up in exile.

Relevance

An abundance of Light radiates throughout this complex passage of the Zohar. This Light helps correct the original sin of Adam, which in turn, assists in weakening the grip of the Angel of Death over mankind. Our souls are strengthened by the Light of Noah, Abraham and Judah, which helps us correct our owns transgressions and cleanse us of negativity, which also helps correct the original sin of Adam.

Chariot Hebrew Letters Holy Name Judah Praise Throne Zeir Anpin

567. "Judah, you are..." (Beresheet 49:8): Rabbi Shimon said, The kingship was assigned to Judah, as we said in relation to the words, "Now will I praise Hashem" (Beresheet 29:35), because he was the fourth. "I will praise Hashem," since He is the fourth leg of the throne. Yud-Hei-Vav of Yud Hei Vav Hei, WHICH ARE CHESED, GVURAH AND TIFERET, are the impress of the Supernal Name ZEIR ANPIN, which is completed by Hei, MALCHUT, the last Hei of the Holy Name, THROUGH WHICH the Holy Name is made whole with its letters. AND IT IS the knot which binds THE LETTERS OF THE HOLY NAME. Therefore "your brethren shall praise" (Beresheet 49:8) you, for thanks to you the kingship, Malchut, is able to exist, YOU BEING THE CHARIOT TO THE ATTRIBUTE OF MALCHUT. It is written, "Judah still rules with El, and is faithful with Holy Ones" (Hoshea 12:1). HE ASKS, Who are these Holy Ones? AND ANSWERS, They are the supernal Holy Ones, THE HOLY SFIROT CHESED, GVURAH AND TIFERET, who all acknowledged him and made him faithful, MEANING, BY GIVING HIM ALL THAT IS IN THEM. He is therefore first in everything and king over all.

Atzilut Bathsheba Briyah Congregation Daughter Female Male Nukva Seven Worlds Zeir Anpin

568. Rabbi Shimon opened the discussion saying, "The King's daughter is all glorious (Heb. kevudah) within" (Tehilim 45:14). "Kevudah" refers to the Congregation of Yisrael, NAMELY THE NUKVA, CALLED 'KEVUDAH,' because He, ZEIR ANPIN, IS CALLED 'kavod' (Eng. 'glory'); the one upon the other, AS BOTH ARE ONE; the one, ZEIR ANPIN, a male, IS CALLED 'KAVOD,' and the other, MALCHUT, a female, is called 'kevudah,' WITH THE ADDITIONAL HEI OF THE FEMININE. The King's daughter is Bathsheba (lit. 'daughter of seven'), WHICH IS THE NUKVA, AND ALSO an echo (lit. 'a voice's daughter'), while he is called a great voice, being the supernal King, ZEIR ANPIN, WHILE THE NUKVA IS CALLED THE DAUGHTER OF A VOICE. It is "within" as there is a king, NAMELY MALCHUT, which is not as far within as him, FOR SOMETIMES MALCHUT IS CLOTHED IN BRIYAH, while the King's daughter is all glorious within IN ATZILUT.

568. ר"ש פְּתַח וַאֲמַר, כָּל כְּבוּדָהּ בַּת מֶלֶךְ פְּנִימָה. כָּל כְּבוּדָהּ, דָּא כנ"י, כְּבוּדָהּ: בְּגִין דְּאִיהוּ כָּבוֹד, דָּא עַל דָּא, דָּא דָּכָר, וְדָא נוּקְבָא, וְאִתְקְרֵי כְּבוּדָהּ. בַּת מֶלֶךְ, הַיְינוּ בַּת שֶׁבַע, בַּת קוֹל דְּאִיהוּ קוֹל גָּדוֹל, וְהַאי מֶלֶךְ עִלָּאָה הוּא. פְּנִימָה: בְּגִין דְּאִית מֶלֶךְ דְּלָאו אִיהוּ לְגוֹ כַּוָּותֵיהּ, וְהַאי כְּבוּדָהּ בַּת מֶלֶךְ.

Aba and Ima Earth Gold Heaven Job Judah North Zeir Anpin

569. "Her clothing is inlaid with gold" (Ibid.), since she is clothed and joined by the supernal Gvurah, NAMELY THE LEFT SIDE OF IMA, WHO IS CALLED GOLD, ACCORDING TO THE SECRET OF THE VERSE, "GOLD COMES OUT OF THE NORTH" (IYOV 37:22). IMA is also called a king, and on her account the land endures, WHICH IS MALCHUT. When is MALCHUT established? When coupled with justice, WHICH IS ZEIR ANPIN, as it says, "The King by justice establishes the land" (Mishlei 29:4), WHICH IS MALCHUT. We call it the Kingdom of Heaven. Judah was united with it, and he therefore inherited the kingdom on earth.

Correction East Garden of Eden Nukva Torah

570. Rabbi Yehuda and Rabbi Yitzchak were walking along the way. Rabbi Yitzchak said, Let us discourse on the words of the Torah as we go. Rabbi Yitzchak opened the discussion saying, "So He drove out the man; and He placed at the east of the Garden of Eden..." (Beresheet 3:24). This verse has been expounded upon by the friends. Yet "He drove" has the same meaning of a man divorcing his wife, MEANING, THE HOLY ONE, BLESSED BE HE, DIVORCING THE NUKVA. "The man" is correct, AS THE NUKVA IS CALLED ET (ENG. 'THE').

570. ר' יְהוּדָה וְר' יִצְחָק הֲווֹ קָאָזְלֵי בְּאָרְחָא. אֲמַר ר' יִצְחָק, נִפְתַּח בְּמִלֵּי דְאוֹרַיְיתָא וְנֵיזֵיל. פְּתַח ר' יִצְחָק וַאֲמַר, וַיְגָרֶשׁ אֶת הָאָדָם וַיַּשְׁכֵּן מִקֶּדֶם לְג"ע וגו.' הַאי קְרָא אוֹקְמוּהָ חַבְרַיָיא. אֲבָל וַיְגָרֶשׁ, כְּב"נ דְּגָרֵישׁ לְאִנְתְּתֵיהּ, אֶת הָאָדָם דַּיְיקָא.

Angels Atzilut Cherubim (Cherubs) East Female Garden of Eden Male Metatron Nukva Sandalfon Seas Sword Tree Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil Tree of Life Women

572. "And He placed at the east of the Garden of Eden," This is below ATZILUT. As there are Cherubs above IN ATZILUT, A MALE AND A FEMALE, so there are Cherubs below ATZILUT, THE ANGELS METATRON AND SANDALFON. The tree, WHICH IS THE NUKVA CALLED THE TREE OF KNOWLEDGE OF GOOD AND EVIL, rests upon them, and "the bright blade of a revolving sword" (Beresheet 3:24) is the shapes of fiery flames come out from the brightness of the sword, WHICH GUARD THE WAY TO THE TREE OF LIFE, NOT THE BRIGHT BLADE OF THE SWORD ITSELF. "Revolving" refers to the sword, which sucks from the two sides, RIGHT AND LEFT, and revolves now to this side, now to the other. According to another explanation, "revolving" alludes to the shapes of the fiery flames which are revolving, as we said. They revolve and change forms, now to men, now to women. They revolve in their places and change forms, in order to guard the way to the Tree of Life. What is the way? As in "who makes a way in the sea" (Yeshayah 43:16), IT REFERS TO YESOD OF THE NUKVA.

572. וַיַּשְׁכֵּן מִקֶּדֶם לְג"ע וגו,' הַאי לְתַתָּא. וּכְמָה דִכְרוּבִים לְעֵילָא, אִית כְּרוּבִים לְתַתָּא, וְהַאי אִילָנָא אַשְׁרֵי עֲלַיְיהוּ. וְאֶת לַהַט הַחֶרֶב הַמִּתְהַפֶּכֶת, אִינוּן טָפְסֵי דְּשַׁלְּהוֹבֵי דְּאֶשָּׁא, מֵהַהוּא חַרְבָּא דְמִתְלַהֲטָא. הַמִּתְהַפֶּכֶת, דָּא הַאי חַרְבָּא, דְּיָנְקָא בִּתְרֵין סִטְרִין, וְאִתְהַפְּכָא מִסִּטְרָא דָא לְסִטְרָא אָחֳרָא. ד"א הַמִּתְהַפֶּכֶת, דָּא לַהַט אִינוּן טָפְסֵי דְּשַׁלְּהוֹבָא דְּקָאֲמָרָן, דְּמִתְהַפְּכָן, לְזִמְנִין גּוּבְרִין וּלְזִמְנִין נָשִׁין וּמִתְהַפְּכָן מִדּוּכְתַּיְיהוּ לְכֹלָּא, וְכָל דָּא, לִשְׁמוֹר אֶת דֶּרֶךְ עֵץ הַחַיִּים. מַאן דֶּרֶךְ. כְּד"א הַנּוֹתֵן בַּיָּם דָּרֶךְ.

Adam Correction Nukva Sin Tree

573. Rabbi Yehuda said, Well spoken, and assuredly correct. Adam caused that tree, in regard to which he sinned, WHICH IS THE NUKVA, to be driven out. So did other men, WHICH CAUSE IT TO BE DRIVEN OUT THROUGH THEIR SINS, as said in the verse, "And for your transgressions was your mother put away" (Yeshayah 50:1). And yet it is true to say that it refers to himself, as it is written, "He drove out the man--" ET (ENG. 'THE') BEING THE NUKVA, man's perfection. BY DRIVING HER OUT, HE LOST HIS WHOLENESS.

573. אֲמַר ר' יְהוּדָה שַׁפִּיר, וְהָכֵי הוּא וַדַּאי, דְּגָרֵים אָדָם לְהַהוּא אִילָנָא דְּחָטָא בֵּיהּ לְאִתָּרְכָא, וַאֲפִילּוּ שְׁאָר בְּנֵי עַלְמָא נָמֵי, כְּד"א וּבְפִשְׁעֵיכֶם שֻׁלְּחָה אִמְּכֶם, אֲבָל שַׁפִּיר קָאֲמַרְתְּ, דְּהָא מִדּוּכְתֵּיהּ מַשְׁמַע, דִּכְתִיב וַיְגָרֶשׁ אֶת הָאָדָם, בְּגִין דְּדָא שְׁלִימוּ דְּאָדָם הוּא.

Abraham Ark Astrology Evil Jacob Judah Moon Noah Nukva Praise Seas Tribes

574. From the day SHE WAS DRIVEN OUT, the moon, THE NUKVA, became flawed, until Noah entered the ark. Then came evil men, and she was flawed again, until Abraham came AND RECTIFIED HER. She stood in wholeness by Jacob and his sons, and Judah came, held on to her and became stronger through the kingship, and inherited it forever, for him and his sons after him. Hence the verse, "Judah you are whom your brethren shall praise" (Beresheet 49:8). Indeed, when Yisrael stood by the sea AND THE TRIBE OF JUDAH WERE THE FIRST TO ENTER IT they all praised him and went into the sea after him.

574. וּמֵהַהוּא יוֹמָא אִתְפְּגֵים סִיהֲרָא, עַד דְּאָתָא נֹחַ וְעָאל בְּתֵיבוּתָא. אָתוֹ חַיָּיבַיָא וְאִתְפְּגֵים. עַד דְּאָתָא אַבְרָהָם, וְקָיְימָא בִּשְׁלִימוּ דְיַעֲקֹב וּבְנוֹי. וְאָתָא יְהוּדָה וְאָחֵיד בֵּיהּ, וְאִתְקַף בְּמַלְכוּתָא, וְאַחְסֵין לֵיהּ אַחְסָנַת עָלְמִין, הוּא וְכָל בְּנוֹי בַּתְרוֹי, הה"ד יְהוּדָה אַתָּה יוֹדוּךָ אַחֶיךָ. וַדַּאי בְּשַׁעְתָּא דְּקָיְימוּ יִשְׂרָאֵל עַל יַמָּא, דְּכֻלְּהוּ אוֹדוּ לֵיהּ, וְנָחֲתוּ אֲבַתְרֵיהּ בְּיַמָּא.

Hands Jerusalem Judah Nukva Tribes War

575. "Your hand shall be on the neck of your enemies" (Ibid.) as it says, "Judah shall go up" (Shoftim 1:2) TO WAR. "The sons of your father shall bow down before you" (Beresheet 49:8) includes all the tribes, and hence the words, "The sons of your father" instead of 'your mother' as the sons of your father are the other tribes. And though Yisrael were divided into two kingdoms, yet when they went up to Jerusalem, they would kneel and bow to the King in Jerusalem, since the Kingdom of Jerusalem WHICH DREW from the holy kingdom, THE NUKVA, was from JUDAH.

Angel of Death Angels Death Death and the Afterlife Evil Evil Inclination Judah Lion Mochin Satan, The Shechinah War Zeir Anpin

577. "Judah is a lion's whelp" (Beresheet 49:9). First he was a whelp and then a lion. HENCE THE REPETITION, A WHELP AND A LION. The secret of the matter is that first, WHEN ZEIR ANPIN IS IN MOCHIN OF SMALLNESS, IT IS CALLED a youth, and later, WHEN IN MOCHIN OF GREATNESS, IT IS CALLED a man, AS IT IS WRITTEN, "Hashem is a man of war" (Shemot 15:3). JUDAH TOO, WHEN IN MOCHIN OF SMALLNESS, IS CALLED A WHELP, AND WHEN IN MOCHIN OF GREATNESS, HE IS CALLED A LION. "From the prey, my son, you are gone up" (Beresheet 49:9). HE ASKS, What prey is this? It includes the Angel of Death, who stands by its prey to exterminate the world, and none can save from it, as in "and tears in pieces, and none can deliver" (Michah 5:7). From that prey, the Shechinah was gone up. THE WORDS, "FROM THE PREY, MY SON, YOU ARE GONE UP" MEAN THAT JUDAH ESCAPED THE ANGEL OF DEATH, WHICH IS THE SATAN, THE EVIL INCLINATION, INSTEAD OF STUMBLING BY IT.

Ground Idolatry Lion Revenge Shechinah Strength Virgin

579. The Shechinah also is as strong as a lion and a lioness when She thus falls, though it is written, "The virgin of Yisrael is fallen; she shall no more rise" (Amos 5:2). As a lion and a lioness only crouch to hunt their prey, and when they smell it from afar they fall; MEANING, THEY CROUCH ON THE GROUND TO PREPARE TO JUMP ON THE PREY and do not rise until they jump upon it and eat it. The Shechinah also does not fall but as a lion and a lioness, in order to revenge the idolatrous nations, leap upon them, as it says "striding in the greatness of his strength" (Yeshayah 63:1).

Exile Holy Name Judah Shechinah Shiloh Staff

581. "The staff shall not depart from Judah" (Beresheet 49:10) has been explained by the friends, but "until Shiloh come" (Ibid.) is spelled with Hei, while in other PLACES IT IS SPELLED SHILO with Vav. This is an indication of the secret of the Holy Name Yud-Hei, for in other places it is spelled Shilo without Hei, or without Yud. Here it is spelled Shiloh with both Yud and Hei, which is the secret of the supernal Holy Name, and means that the Shechinah shall rise FROM HER FALL IN THE EXILE through this name of Yud-Hei, which, as we said, is the mystery of 'who,' FOR YAH IS THE NAME OF BINAH, ALSO NAMED 'WHO.'
