Chapter Fourteen
(The Study of the Ten Sefirot)
Part 3
Explains the Pnimiut and Hitzoniut of the five Olamot Adam Kadmon and ABYA, and how in every twenty-five degrees in every single Olam there are Pnimiut and Hitzoniut. It also divides the level of each and every Olam. Contains ten issues:
1. Pnimiut and Hitzoniut of Olam Assiya are Nefashot and Ofanim.
2. The NRNHY of the general Nefesh extend from the five Partzufim AA, AVI and ZON de Assiya.
3. Each Partzuf of the five Partzufim of Assiya consists of NRNHY. However, in NRNHY de AA they are all Yechida, in NRNHY de Abba they are all Haya and in NRNHY de Ima they are all Neshama. In de ZA they are all Ruach and in Nukva they are all Nefashot, and the degree of Malchut in the Olamot.
4. In general, the entire Ohr in Olam Assiya is regarded as Ohr Nefesh, and in specific, it contains NRNHY de Nefesh. Each of them contains NRNHY, which are twenty-five degrees.
5. Pnimiut and Hitzoniut de Yetzira are Ruchin and Malaachim (angels). Each of them contains five Partzufim AA, AVI and ZON. Each Partzuf contains five Behinot NRNHY, meaning twenty-five Behinot, and they are all only Ohr Ruach, the level of ZA in the Olamot.
6. Pnimiut and Hitzoniut de Beria are Neshamot and a Kisse (throne), in which there are holy Ruchin. Each of them contains twenty-five Behinot, and they are all only Ohr Neshama, and the level of Bina in the Olamot.
7. Pnimiut and Hitzoniut de Atzilut are the Atzmut of the Ohr and the Kelim. Each contains twenty-five Behinot, and they are all Ohr Haya and the level of Hochma in the Olamot.
8. Pnimiut and Hitzoniut de AK are the Atzmut of the Ohr and the Kelim. Each contains twenty-five Behinot and they are all Ohr Yechida and the level of Keter in the Olamot.
9. NRNHY in every Olam is Pnimiut and the Kelim that clothe them are Hitzoniut. 10. All the Olamot are one Partzuf from Ein Sof: AK is the Keter in them, Olam Atzilut is Hochma, and Beria is Bina. Yetzira is ZA and Assiya – Malchut. The Ohr in all of them is Pnimiut and the Kelim in all of them is Hitzoniut. Inside all of them there is Ohr Ein Sof, opposite which every thing is Hitzoniut.
Pnimiut and Hitzoniut of Olam Assiya are Nefashot and Ofanim
1. There is Pnimiut and Hitzoniut (1) in all the Olamot. In Assiya, their Hitzoniut is Ofanim (2), and the Pnimiut is Nefashot. However, these Nefashot are in general (3).
Ohr Pnimi
1. The Ohr is referred to as Pnimiut here, and the Kli as Hitzoniut. Regarding Pnimiut and Hitzoniut, they should always be understood according to the relevant context.
2. The Kelim de Olam Assiya are called Ofanim, and the Orot de Olam Assiya are called Nefesh.
3. Meaning relating to the “general” Eser Sefirot, which are five Olamot AK and ABYA, corresponding to KHB, ZA and Malchut, in which Yechida, Haya, Neshama, Ruach and Nefesh are clothed. Accordingly, all the Orot de Assiya are regarded as Malchut and Nefesh, though compared to the specific inner value of Olam Assiya itself, it has the entire NRNHY, as he will explain henceforth.
The NRNHY of the general Nefesh extend from the five Partzufim AA, AVI and ZON de Assiya
2. However, this Nefesh is divided into five Behinot NRNHY. These five Behinot are in the five Partzufim de Assiya, and they are all Nefesh of the Olamot in general.
Each Partzuf of the five Partzufim of Assiya consists of NRNHY. However, in NRNHY de AA they are all Yechida, in NRNHY de Abba they are all Haya and in NRNHY de Ima they are all Neshama. In de ZA they are all Ruach and in Nukva they are all Nefashot, and the degree of Malchut in the Olamot
3. Also, each Partzuf among them contains the above five Behinot NRNHY. However, being that these five Behinot are in AA, they are all called Yechida in Assiya. These five Behinot in Abba are called Haya de Assiya, and these five Behinot de Ima are all called Neshama. These five Behinot de ZA are called Ruach and these five Behinot in Nukva are called Nefesh.
In general, the entire Ohr in Olam Assiya is regarded as Ohr Nefesh, and in specific, it contains NRNHY de Nefesh. Each of them contains NRNHY, which are twenty-five degrees
4. It turns out that they are twenty-five individual Behinot (4), but in general they are not more than five Behinot, which are five Partzufim. However, when arranged according to the four Olamot ABYA, they will only be Behinat Nefesh in their general value.
Ohr Pnimi
4. Meaning five Partzufim. Each and every Partzuf contains NRNHY. Know, that these twenty-five Behinot are obligatory in every single Olam because of the emanation of that single degree that is the level of that specific Olam, as it is written in Histaklut Pnimit here. Thus, it is necessary to discern five Partzufim in Olam Adam Kadmon as well, in which there are Eser Sefirot KHB ZA Nukva one below the other, where the NRNHY of that specific Partzuf clothe.
You should also discern here that there are two kinds of Eser Sefirot: the first is the Eser Sefirot KHB ZA and Malchut, whose level is equal. It means that they emerge from a single Zivug de Hakaa, meaning from a single Behina. The second is Eser Sefirot KHB ZON one below the other, meaning which emerge by five Zivugim de Hakaa (pl. for Zivug de Hakaa) because of the Hizdakchut of the Masach, as it is written above regarding the emanation of the five Olamot AK and ABYA.
Know, that these obligatory twenty-five Behinot in the words of the Rav, relate only to the Eser Sefirot one below the other. The Eser Sefirot of equal level are regarded only as a single Sefira, named after the highest Ohr in the degree (see Chap 9, item 3).
Pnimiut and Hitzoniut de Yetzira are Ruchin and Malaachim (angels). Each of them contains five Partzufim AA, AVI and ZON. Each Partzuf contains five Behinot NRNHY, meaning twenty-five Behinot, and they are all only Ohr Ruach, the level of ZA in the Olamot
5. Similarly, there are two Behinot in Olam Yetzira, Pnimiut and Hitzoniut. The Pnimiut are the Ruchin, and the Hitzoniut are the Mala'achim.
Each of them has five Partzufim: AA, Abba, Ima, ZA and Nukva. Each Partzuf is divided similarly into five, which are the five Behinot NRNHY found in Yetzira. Those are divided similarly into five inner Behinot and five general Behinot. All of them are only Behinat Ruach and Behinat ZA, compared to the value of all the Olamot.
Pnimiut and Hitzoniut de Beria are Neshamot and Kisse (throne), in which there are holy Ruchin. Each of them contains twenty-five Behinot, and they are all only Ohr Neshama, and the level of Bina in the Olamot
6. Similarly, Beria too has two Behinot Pnimiut and Hitzoniut. Pnimiut is the Neshamot and Hitzoniut is the Kisse, where the holy Ruchin are. Each of them is, in turn, is divided into twenty-five inner Behinot and five general Behinot, and they are all called Neshama and Bina, compared to the value of the Olamot.
Pnimiut and Hitzoniut de Atzilut are the Atzmut of the Ohr and the Kelim. Each contains twenty-five Behinot, and they are all Ohr Haya and the level of Hochma in the Olamot
7. Similarly, Atzilut has two Behinot Pnimiut and Hitzoniut. The Pnimiut is the Orot and the Atzmut inside it, and the Hitzoniut is the Kelim. Each Behina is divided into twenty-five inner Behinot and together they are Haya and Hochma, compared to the value of the Olamot.
Pnimiut and Hitzoniut de AK are the Atzmut of the Ohr and the Kelim. Each contains twenty-five Behinot and they are all Ohr Yechida and the level of Keter in the Olamot
8. Similarly, in Adam Kadmon there are two Behinot Pnimiut and Hitzoniut. The Pnimiut is the Atzmut inside him, and the Hitzoniut is the Kelim. Though compared to the rest of the Olamot they are not yet called Kelim, we shall call them Kelim only regarding their own Pnimiut.
Each of them contains all the above Behinot, and they are generally called Yechida and Keter with respect to all the Olamot. It is written in the beginning of Tikun 70 (Zohar, Tikunim), “AK is the Upper Keter” etc.
NRNHY in every Olam is Pnimiut and the Kelim that clothe them are Hitzoniut
9. Know, that all the interior in each and every Olam of the five Olamot consist of Yechida, Haya, Neshama, Ruach, Nefesh in that specific Olam. Its Hitzoniut is the Kelim and the Guf, where the Yechida, Haya, Neshama, Ruach and Nefesh clothe.
All the Olamot are one Partzuf from Ein Sof: AK is the Keter in them, Olam Atzilut is Hochma, and Beria is Bina. Yetzira is ZA and Assiya – Malchut. The Ohr in all of them is Pnimiut and the Kelim in all of them is Hitzoniut. Inside all of them there is Ohr Ein Sof, opposite which every thing is Hitzoniut
10. It turns out that all the Olamot are regarded as a single Partzuf (5), made only of Eser Sefirot. Adam Kadmon, in all his Behinot, is the Keter in them. The Atzilut is Abba in them, Beria, is the Ima in them and Yetzira the ZA in them. Assiya is the Nukva in them, and they are all one Partzuf.
There is Atzmut, which is the Pnimiut, and the Kelim, which is the Hitzoniut. Inside all of them there is Ohr Ein Sof, compared to which they are all regarded as Kelim and Hitzoniut, and it is the only Atzmut and Pnimiut inside them.
Ohr Pnimi
5. This is a very important cognizance that is needed in the understanding of many issues, and it should always be remembered. The first cognizance is that consequently, when new motion and Hidush are made in any Olam, or in the slightest Behina there, that inner motion generates Hidush in all the Olamot from the Rosh of the Kav to the end of Assiya, for better or for worse. It is as if there is one person, where it is impossible to conceive that only a small part of a single organ among all his organs aches, or delights, without the entire body, head to toe feeling it.
