迈玛尔 11
- השמים כסאי והארץ הדום רגלי אי זה בית וגו׳ “The heavens are My throne and the earth is My footstool” G‑d, who has no body and no place, “sits” on the Torah, has His “foot,” the Jewish people, raised on the “footstool” of the practical mitzvos, and is “housed” in prayer; each is drawn down by a person’s own service, from contemplation and love to deeds and self-nullification.
- כי כאשר השמים החדשים והארץ החדשה וגו׳ “For as the new heavens and the new earth” The world’s heaven and earth are sustained by a spiritual “earth” and “heaven” — the soul’s upward rush of longing (ratzo) and the drawing down of G‑dliness through Torah and mitzvos (shov). In the future, the pulse of ratzo and shov will flow from G‑d’s own essence, heaven first, and Israel’s service will be raised to stand before Him with it.
- ביאור על הנ״ל An Explanation of the Above Torah and mitzvos, though clothed in physical matters, are G‑d’s own wisdom and will, one with Him as no created soul can be; they draw the unity of Atzilus into the lower worlds, and in the Time to Come they will rise even higher, into the World of Akudim revealed in the “new heavens and new earth.”
- להבין הטעם שנשתנה יצירת גוף האדם משאר כל… To understand the reason why the formation of man’s body differs… Plants and animals came forth whole, body and soul at once, because the vegetative and the animal are adjacent levels; man’s body was first made as lifeless dust because the speaking soul, rooted in supernal Chochmah, can join only the lowest, inanimate level (“their beginning is wedged in their end”), and from there it raises all of creation.
- ולהבין בתוס׳ ביאור ענין וייצר ה׳ אלקים את… 进一步阐明“ הוי׳(Havayah)与 אלקים(Elokim)塑造……”这一问题 处于因果相续链条中相邻层面的事物,会一同形成;例如,情感属性从认知机能中生发,动物或天使的身体也与其灵魂一同形成。无生物层面——王权(מלכות,Malchus)与“字母”——处在这条链条之外,是由智慧(חכמה,Chochmah)直接奠立的;因此,只有最高层的灵魂——亚当·哈里顺(אדם הראשון),其根源在超上的智慧——才能进入一具由无生命尘土构成的身体,并使它发生转化。
- לא טוב היות האדם לבדו אעשה לו עזר כנגדו It is not good that the man be alone; I will make him a helper opposite him The concealment of the Name Elokim, which seems to oppose G‑d’s revealed light, is itself the “helper”: like the silver backing of a mirror, it turns the light back upward as reflected light that rises even higher than its source.
- ויאמר ה׳ אלקים הן האדם היה כאחד ממנו… “And Havayah Elokim said: Behold, man has become like one of us” Knowing evil is harmless ‘above,’ where knowledge is encompassing and keeps evil apart, but for man, whose knowing is inner, it means becoming mixed with evil; therefore G‑d forbade the Tree of Knowledge, kept man from eternal life once he was mixed with evil, and sent him to refine the world through struggle instead of through sheer light.
- להבין ענין הברכות כי הנה אנשי כנה״ג תקנו… “To understand the matter of the blessings” A blessing’s opening ‘Baruch’ draws G‑d’s hidden Infinite Light into revelation, and its closing ‘Baruch,’ the ‘seal,’ guards that revelation so that it stays in holiness and does not feed the forces of evil; the same structure shapes the wedding blessings, Torah study and the love of G‑d in prayer.
- יבל הוא היה אבי יושב אהל ומקנה “雅八(יבל,Yaval)——他是帐棚居住者之父” 每一次升至更高层次,都要经由“歌”(שיר,shir)——使现有的自我消融(ביטול,bittul);正如种子必须腐烂,才能萌芽。手持竖琴的犹八(יובל,Yuval)就是这歌;雅八——“帐棚居住者和牲畜之父”——则是它的根源:一种超越分别、包罗万有的环绕之光,甚至能下达至最低之物。
- צאינה וראינה וגו׳ Go Forth and Gaze Prayer, the “service of the heart,” is G‑d’s “joy of heart,” gathering the soul’s powers upward as blood returns to the heart; but the Torah, clothed in physical mitzvos, is His “wedding,” for like a seed it draws a truly new light from the Infinite essence, above the whole order of creation.
- בעטרה שעטרה לו אמו כי מצות התורה הן… “With the crown with which his mother crowned him” The mitzvos, done with lowly physical things, become a crown that draws down G‑d’s will and delight; for now that delight is hidden and brings joy, but in the Time to Come it will be seen and bring true delight.
