Teil 5 · Kapitel 52

That light of Bina is among the first lights that remained there, and this Yod that it came into from the coupling of ZON inside Hochma is renewed. Hence, how will Bina, who is the root, become a female to this renewed light, which is from Hochma? The answer is that we have already explained that that light of Bina is not a great light, since there are three distances between it and the light, although they are not three complete distances, which is not so in the Hochma above. In addition, that light of Bina remained here during the departure, when his intention was not to shine, but the upper Nukva in Hochma intended to shine at the time of the expansion. Hence, the son that emerges from the two of them can be more interior than this Bina, much less form the Hesed that came now, although it, too, is from the phase of expansion. Nevertheless, it is three degrees below Hochma.
