Emor: Verse 84
Introduction by Ra'aya Meheimna (the Faithful Shepherd). "And you shall keep My commandments, and do them" (Vayikra 22:31). We have learned about the commandments of the Master of the Universe, as it is written, "And you shall keep My commandments, and do them." HE ASKS, If they need keeping, WHEN THEN DOES THIS INCLUDE DOING AS WELL, and why DOES IT SAY, "and do them?" Furthermore, HE ASKS, all the commandments in the Torah have two Facets that are one, NAMELY 'remember' and 'keep;' 'remember' is for the Male, NAMELY ZEIR ANPIN, and 'keep' for the Female, MALCHUT, and they are all joined into one. HE ASKS, If 'keep' is for the Female, why is it written, "And you shall keep My commandments," WHICH INDICATES ALL THE PRECEPTS ARE ONLY OF THE ASPECT OF THE FEMALE, NAMELY 'KEEPING?'
Emor: Verse 85
HE ANSWERS, Everything is within this verse. "And you shall keep" refers to 'keep,' while, "and do them" refers to 'remember.' It all pertains to the same secret. Remembering is doing. Whoever mentions something below causes the doing of that secret above. There are 613 commandments in the Torah, which are the whole of Male and Female, NAMELY 'REMEMBER' AND 'KEEP,' ZEIR ANPIN AND MALCHUT, all pertaining to the same secret.
Emor: Verse 86
"Neither shall you profane My holy name; but I will be hallowed among the children of Yisrael..." (Vayikra 22:32). This commandment is to sanctify Him daily and raise His sanctity from below upwards, NAMELY, TO RAISE MAYIN NUKVIN FROM BELOW SO AS TO AWAKEN HIS SANCTITY ABOVE, just as He is holy above. Thus His sanctity will rise to the fathers, WHO ARE CHESED, GVURAH AND TIFERET OF ZEIR ANPIN, and the children, NETZACH, HOD AND YESOD OF ZEIR ANPIN, CALLED THE CHILDREN OF YISRAEL. This is the secret of, "but I will be hallowed among the children of Yisrael" above THE CHEST and below THE CHEST. FOR "I WILL BE HALLOWED" REFERS TO CHESED, GVURAH AND TIFERET OF ZEIR ANPIN, CALLED FATHERS, WHO ARE ABOVE THE CHEST, AND "AMONG THE CHILDREN OF YISRAEL" REFERS TO NETZACH, HOD AND YESOD OF ZEIR ANPIN, CALLED THE CHILDREN OF YISRAEL, WHO ARE BELOW THE CHEST OF ZEIR ANPIN. Above in three grades, CHESED, GVURAH AND TIFERET OF ZEIR ANPIN; below in three grades, NETZACH, HOD AND YESOD OF ZEIR ANPIN.
Emor: Verse 87
We have explained ABOUT THE PURPOSE OF sanctity in several places. But as there is sanctity in the highest, WHICH IS SUPERNAL ABA AND IMA, WHO ARE CALLED HOLINESS, so there is sanctity in the middle, WHICH IS ZEIR ANPIN, and sanctity below IN MALCHUT. Everything follows the lower, WHICH MEANS THE ESSENCE IS TO DRAW SANCTITY DOWN TO MALCHUT. The highest sanctity, ABA AND IMA, pertains to one secret, WHICH MEANS THEY ARE HOLINESS THEMSELVES AND ALL THAT PERTAINS TO THEM IS HOLY - the sanctity in the middle and below, ZEIR ANPIN AND MALCHUT, IS DIVIDED into three grades that are one. THIS MEANS SANCTITY IS DRAWN THROUGH THREE COLUMNS. SANCTITY IS IN THE RIGHT COLUMN, WHENCE IT IS DRAWN TO ALL COLUMNS - CHESED, GVURAH AND TIFERET IN ZEIR ANPIN, AND NETZACH, HOD AND YESOD IN MALCHUT.
