Daily Kabbalah Definition

Definitions in the daily Kabbalah lesson guide a precise, spiritual approach to terms, & disqualify materialized corporeal definitions

Group, Assembly of Israel, Divinity in exile, Divinity in the dust

What is "group" in spirituality and what are the spiritual meanings of the concepts "Assembly of Israel," "Divinity in exile," and "Divinity in the dust."

"Group" in spirituality is Malchut (kingdom) of Atzilut (nobility), the state in which we all are connected and united together.  Therefore, it is called the "Assembly of Israel" and only those who want to connect to the group can rise to Malchut of Atzilut, arriving at "the Holy Divinity."  If a person discovers that he wants but is still not able to connect to the group, then for him it is called "Divinity in Exile."  And if he discovers that he not only is not able to, but also doesn't want to connect, then for him the group is "Divinity in the dust."
