Teil 5 · Kapitel 27

*Know that all those vessels did not gain coarseness and become vessels until after the departure of the light of Malchut. At that time, he turned his anterior from the vessel. It is so because although the upper light of the vessel of Keter departed and rose to the Emanator, because light of Hochma rose in its place, the vessel of Keter does not gain coarseness and materialize. It is the same in all the other lights. You find that since it has been explained above, in the previous study, that the light of Keter of Akudim departs first, and the light of Malchut departs last, it follows that the existence of the vessel begins only from below and above, and the vessel of Malchut is made before all the others, for since the light of Malchut departs last, when it departs from its own vessel, the vessel does not become coarser until its departure from its entire vessel is completed. Then the nine upper vessels still have light although none of them has a part of the light that truly reaches its own part. For this reason, they do not become coarse and materialize. However, the vessel of Malchut, which has been entirely emptied of her light, and there is also no other light below her to rise inside her, hence, she gains coarseness and becomes a vessel. But she does not become completely coarse until the light departs from her entirely, three degrees, etc. The reason for this will be understood with the above-mentioned, that any less than three is akin to being alone. Thus, after the light moved away three complete degrees, the vessel becomes completely dark and its making is completed.
