Behar: Verse 15
שֵׁשׁ שָׁנִים תִּזְרַע שָׂדֶךָ וְגוֹ,' וּבַשָּׁנָה הַשְּׁבִיעִית שַׁבַּת שַׁבָּתוֹן יִהְיֶה לָאָרֶץ שַׁבָּת לַיְיָ.' וְהָא אוֹקְמוּהָ, דִּכְתִּיב וּבַשְּׁבִיעִית תִּשְׁמְטֶנָּה וּנְטַשְׁתָּהּ וְגוֹ.' מ"ט וְאָכְלוּ אֶבְיוֹנֵי עַמֶּךָ. בְּגִין דְּמִסְכְּנֵי בְּהַאי אֲתַר תַּלְיָין, ובג"כ שָׁבִיק לוֹן לְמֵיכַל. וְעַ"ד, מַאן דְּרָחִים לְמִסְכְּנָא, יָהִיב שְׁלָמָא בִּכְנֶסֶת יִשְׂרָאֵל, וְאוֹסִיף בִּרְכָתָא בְּעָלְמָא, וְיָהִיב חֵידוּ וְחֵילָא לַאֲתַר דְּאִתְקְרֵי צְדָקָה, לְאַרְקָא בִּרְכָתָא לִכְנֶסֶת יִשְׂרָאֵל, וְאוֹקִימְנָא.
"Six years you shall sow your field... but in the seventh year shall be a Shabbat of solemn rest for the land, a Shabbat for Hashem" (Vayikra 25:3-4). We already established, as it is written, "but in the seventh year you shall let it rest and lie fallow" (Shemot 23:11). What is the reason? "That the poor of your people may eat" (Ibid.). For the poor are associated with that place, MALCHUT, DENOTING THE SABBATICAL YEAR; therefore, leave it to them to eat. Consequently, one who shows mercy for the poor contributes peace to the Congregation of Yisrael, AS THE POOR ARE ASSOCIATED WITH IT. He multiplies blessings in the world and gives joy and strength to the place called 'righteousness,' DENOTING MALCHUT, by pouring blessings on the Congregation of Yisrael. This has been explained.
Behar: Verse 16
(רעיא מהימנא) וּבַשָּׁנָה הַשְּׁבִיעִית שַׁבָּת שַׁבָּתוֹן וְגוֹ.' פִּקּוּדָא דָּא לִשְׁבּוֹת בַּשָּׁנָה הַשְּׁבִיעִית וַאֲבַתְרֵיהּ לִשְׁבּוֹת בַּשְּׁבִיעִי. וַאֲבַתְרֵיהּ לְהַשְׁמִיט כְּסָפִים, בַּשְּׁבִיעִית. וַאֲבָתְרֵיהּ לִמְנוֹת שֶׁבַע שָׁנִים שֶׁבַע פְּעָמִים וְהָיוּ לְךָ יְמֵי שֶׁבַע שַׁבָּתוֹת הַשָּׁנִים תֵּשַׁע וְאַרְבָּעִים שָׁנָה. הָכָא רָזָא דְּכָל שְׁבִיעִיּוֹת, מִסִּטְרָא דִּשְׁכִינְתָּא דְּאִתְקְרִיאַת שֶׁבַע מִסִּטְרָא דְּצַדִּיק דְּאִיהוּ שְׁבִיעִי לַבִּינָה, וְאִיהִי בַּת שֶׁבַע, מִסִּטְרָא דְּאִימָא עִלָּאָה, דְּאִתְּמַר בָּהּ שֶׁבַע בַּיוֹם הִלַּלְתִּיךָ.
Ra'aya Meheimna (the Faithful Shepherd). "But in the seventh year shall be a Shabbat of solemn rest..." (Vayikra 25:4). This precept is to rest during the seventh year. The following one is to rest during the seventh day, and the following is to cancel money debts on the seventh and then to count, "seven times seven years; and the space of the seven Shabbatot of years shall be to you 49 years" (Ibid. 8). Here is the secret of the group of sevens as they emanate from the Shechinah, DENOTING MALCHUT, called 'seven' from the standpoint of the Righteous, DENOTING YESOD, which is seventh from Binah. And she, MALCHUT, is the daughter of seven from the side of supernal Ima, DENOTING BINAH THAT ILLUMINATES IT, SINCE BINAH IS THE SEVENTH GOING FROM BELOW UPWARD, of which it is written, "Seven times a day I praise You" (Tehilim 119:164).
Behar: Verse 17
שֶׁבַע שְׁמָהָן אִינּוּן אַבְגִיתַ"ץ, וּבְהוֹן מ"ב אַתְוָון, כְּלַל אַתְוָון וְתֵיבִין הֵם תֵּשַׁע וְאַרְבְּעִין, אִימָּא עִלָּאָה שְׁנַת הַחֲמִשִּׁים שָׁנָה, דְּבָהּ וּקְרָאתֶם דְּרוֹר. בָּהּ תְּהֵא שְׁכִינְתָּא תַּתָּאָה, דְּרוֹר פְּדוּת וּשְׁבִיתָה לְיִשְׂרָאֵל, דְּאִתְּמַר בְּהוֹן וְהָיָה זַרְעֲךָ כַּעֲפַר הָאָרֶץ.
There are seven names: Aleph-Bet-Gimel Yud-Tav-Tzadi; KUF-RESH- AYIN SIN-TET-NUN; NUN-GIMEL-DALET YUD-CAF-SHIN; BET-TET-RESH TZADI-TAV-GIMEL; CHET-KOF-BET TET-NUN-AYIN; YUD-GIMEL-LAMED PE-ZAYIN-KOF; SHIN-KOF-VAV TZADI-YUD-TAV. They contain 42 letters and the sum of both letters and words is 49, THAT IS, 42 LETTERS AND SEVEN WORDS. Supernal Ima, BINAH, represents the fiftieth year, in which you shall "proclaim liberty" (Vayikra 25:10). For within her, BY RECEIVING HER MOCHIN the lower Shechinah, MALCHUT CALLED 'LAND,' shall be liberty, redemption and rest for Yisrael, of whom it is written, "and your seed shall be as the dust of the earth" (Beresheet 28:14), THE EARTH BEING MALCHUT.
Behar: Verse 18
כָּל סְפִירָה מֵאִלֵּין שְׁבַע, שִׁית גַּדְפִּין, דְּאִינּוּן שִׁית אַתְוָון לְכָל חַד. וּבְהוֹן קוּדְשָׁא בְּרִיךְ הוּא בְּכָל סְפִירָה מֵאִלֵּין שֶׁבַע, בִּשְׁתַּיִם יְכַסֶּה פָּנָיו וּבִשְׁתַּיִם יְכַסֶּה רַגְלָיו וּבִשְׁתַּיִם יְעוֹפֵף, וּבִינָה אִיהוּ אַחַת, וּשְׁכִינְתָּא תַּתָּאָה שֶׁבַע. וּלְעֵילָּא מִבִּינָה, אַחַת וְאַחַת, הָא עֲשַׂר סְפִירָן. שְׁתַּיִם, ג,' וְד,' וְה,' וְו,' וְז.'
Every Sfirah, MEANING EACH NAME from these seven names, POSSESSES six wings, CORRESPONDING TO CHESED, GVURAH, TIFERET, NETZACH, HOD AND YESOD, since there are six letters in every name - ALEPH-BET-GIMEL YUD-TAV-TZADI POSSESSES SIX LETTERS, AND AS WELL KUF-RESH-AYIN SIN-TET-NUN, AND SO IT IS WITH ALL OF THEM. And with them, the Holy One, blessed be He, with each Sfirah from these seven, ILLUMINATES THE ANGELS ABOUT WHOM IT IS WRITTEN, "with two he covered his face, and with two he covered his feet, and with two did he fly" (Yeshayah 6:2). Binah represents one. The lower Shechinah is seven. Above Binah, THE HIGH PRIEST COUNTS one and one. HE WOULD COUNT the ten Sfirot BY MEANS OF SPRINKLING. ONE CORRESPONDS TO KETER; ONE AND ONE EQUALS CHOCHMAH AND BINAH; ONE AND two ARE CHESED AND GVURAH; ONE and three CORRESPONDS TO TIFERET; ONE and four CORRESPONDS TO NETZACH; ONE and five CORRESPONDS TO HOD; ONE and six CORRESPONDS TO YESOD; ONE and seven CORRESPONDS TO MALCHUT.
