瑪瑪爾 5
- וישב יעקב בארץ מגורי אביו בארץ כנען 「雅各（יעקב，Yaakov）定居在他父親寄居之地，在迦南（כנען，Canaan）地」 靈魂降入身體，猶如商人捨出自己的銀子和金子，以賺取遠為豐厚的回報：它放下了顯露而自然的愛與敬畏，換得「心之渴望」——一種超越一切理解、只有身處此世的靈魂才能達到的對 ה׳ 的渴慕。
- והנה אנחנו מאלמים אלמים כו׳ “And Behold, We Were Binding Sheaves” Refining the scattered sparks of the shattered vessels takes two stages: the brothers’ work from below, which binds the fragments into one and nullifies them before G‑d, and Yosef’s light from above, which completes their inclusion in G‑dliness.
- שיר המעלות בשוב כו׳ היינו כחולמים A Song of Ascents: When [Havayah] Returns... We Were Like Dreamers Exile is a dream: with the intellect ‘asleep’, a person holds opposites together, love of G‑d in prayer and love of self afterward. Yet the dream’s power to unite opposites comes from the highest level, the ‘circles’ where all is one, and in the redemption that hidden source will be revealed.
- בכ״ה בכסליו יומי דחנוכה כו׳ שכשנכנסו יונים להיכל וכו׳ On the Twenty-Fifth of Kislev The Menorah and the incense, with the daily offering around them, model the whole of divine service: Torah lights up the emotions, mitzvos and charity lift even the lowest “inanimate” level, and self-sacrifice raises the animal soul. Chanukah is a “dedication” in which Israel’s self-sacrifice against the Greeks drew down the light of Torah anew, celebrated through Hallel (bringing G‑dliness into revelation) and thanksgiving (bowing before what remains beyond reach).
- כה אמר ה׳ צבאות אם בדרכי תלך כו׳… Thus says Havayah of Hosts: If you will walk in My ways Angels and souls above “stand,” fixed at one level; only a soul clothed in a body and an animal soul can “go,” and through its service it gives movement both upward and downward even to the angels. This requires first “judging” the animal soul in a war that lasts through the exile, and will reach its fullness in the Time to Come.
