*Now we shall explain the matter of the posterior of AVI that fell and broke, as well. First, we must explain the introduction of face-to-face and back-to-back. The thing is that the place of the shells and the external ones are the posterior of the Nukva of ZA, and there they cling. However, there is also some gripping to the posterior of ZA. Before God created man on earth, the shells had the power to suckle abundance from the Kedusha [holiness], as it is written, “And there was not a man to till the ground.” One of the works on the soil is mowing thorns from the vineyard, for which, practical commandments are needed. However, when ZAT were emanated, the lower Adam haRishon had not been created in the world. ZON emerged back-to-back for fear of the suckling of the external ones, since had they stood face-to-face, the shells would have had a place to cling to their gripping place to suckle, which are the posterior. This is because they could not suckle from the anterior, and therefore had to be adhered back-to-back so the external ones would not be able to suckle from there.

1The place of the Klipot and the exteriors are the Achoraim of Nukva de ZA, and there they cling. This is so because the Klipot cling only to a place of lack, meaning in a place that does not shine, called Achoraim, meaning precisely to the Achoraim de ZAT, which are ZON. However, they have no hold at all in GAR.There is also a division in ZON between the ZA and the Nukva. This is because their hold is primarily in Nukva de ZA, as she is the ending Sefira of the Partzuf, which stops the Ohr in the Partzuf from expanding further by the force of the Tzimtzum and the Masach in her.For this reason her Achoraim are complete darkness, as it is written, “Her feet go down to death,” being the Klipot, called “death”. He writes, “the place of the Klipot and the exteriors are the Achoraim of Nukva de ZA, and there they cling.” It means that the Klipot and the exteriors begin from the place of darkness downward, which is from the Sium of the Nukva downward, because after her begins darkness, as she is Behinat Sium on the Ohr in the Partzuf.
2However, there is also some gripping to the Achor de ZA. Meaning in the full amount that does not shine, called Achoraim, because the rule is that Tzor is built only over the ruin of Jerusalem. This is so because the entire sustenance and construction of the Sitra Achra is on the ruin of the Kedusha. Thus, when Kedusha is corrected until there is no form of ruin in it, the Sitra Achra will be cancelled from the world, as it is written, “He will swallow up death for ever.”
3Before God created Adam on earth the Klipot had strength to suck Shefa etc. This means that then ZON could not mate Panim be Panim because there is no Zivug Panim be Panimwithout a raising of MAN by their Tachton. It is explained there in AVI, and so it is regarding ZON, as ZON too are corrected in Achor be Achor because of the Achoraim de Ima, as we shall see below.Thus, Nukva too does not stop her Achoraim before she has an element that compels her to that. This element are the Neshamot of the righteous that rise to her for MAN. In order to give them He’arat GAR, she must stop her Achoraim and return her Panim to ZA, and then mate with the ZA Panim be Panim.Hence, before Adam ha Rishon was created, there was no one to raise MAN to the Nukvade ZA. For this reason they lacked GAR, meaning Ohr Panim, which is the primary sustenance of the Partzuf. This is why there was power in the Klipot to draw Shefa from the Kedusha, meaning from the Behinatlack of this Ohr GAR.
4ZON emerged Achor be Achor for fear of the sucking of the exteriors. It means that they emerged in the Tikun of the Achoraim de Ima since they rose above to AVI, ZAwas incorporated in Abba, and Nukva de ZA in Ima. By so doing they have acquired Behinat Achoraim de Ima, which is as sufficient for them as He’arat GAR(Ohr Pnimi item 23).Once they have obtained that, the exteriors can no longer suck from ZON, it is considered for them as Behinat Ohr GAR. Since there is Ohr GAR in the Partzuf, there is no place for the exteriors to suck from, as there is grip only in ZAT without GAR.
5Had they stood Panim be Panim, the Klipot would have had a place to grip in their holding place. This does not mean had they stood in Zivug Panim be Panim. On the contrary, then the Klipot would have been expelled from ZON entirely. Instead, it means that if they had not had that Tikun of Achor be Achor, but the Nukva had wanted to receive the Ohr Panim of ZA, their Achoraim would have been exposed. In other words, the lack of GAR in them would have been exposed and sensed. In that state the Klipot would have had a place to grip, meaning in the lack in them.Now, however, when they are corrected in the Achoraim de Ima, when they reject Ohr Hochma, meaning Ohr Panim, no lack is felt in them where the exteriors can grip. This is because now the lack of Ohr Hochma is not considered a flaw in them, as they do not want Hochma anyhow (see Ohr Pnimi item 23).He writes, “had they stood Panimbe Panim, the Klipot would have had a place to grip in their holding place to suck, which are the Achoraim. This is because they cannot suck from the Panim.” This means that if the Kelim de Panim of the Nukva had been open to receive the Ohr Panim, the lack of Ohr Panim would have been exposed in them, and this lack is Achoraim, from which the Klipot grip and suck.Remember onward, that Achoraim means a place of lack of Ohr Hochma. In this manner there is hold and sucking for the exteriors, whose entire sustenance is from the place of lack in the Kedusha.Conversely, Achoraim de Ima is Behinat GAR, although there too there is a necessary lack of Hochma, hence the name Achoraim. However, with respect to Bina, this is not at all considered a lack since she is so from her Shoresh in Bina de Ohr Yashar, choosing Hassadim and rejecting Ohr Hochma.Because Bina is essentially a Sefira from the GAR, hence her Ohr de Hassadim is also considered GAR. After ZON rise and mingle in AVI too, receiving this Tikun of Achoraim de Ima from them, they too obtain He’arat GAR from these Behinat Achoraim de Ima, because of which, this lack of Ohr Panim is not considered a shortcoming, even in ZON.
