Partie 7 · Chapitre 34

Now you will thoroughly understand why there are tags over these thirteen letters, more than the other nine, why on seven of them that are SATNZ GTz, there are three tags on each and every letter of them, and on the other six, which are BDK HYH, there are no tags on them, but only one tag on each of their letters. The thing is that the SATNZ GTz are the seven kings of ZON, from whose dross the shells called STN AZ were made, hence the name SATNZ. It is a connection of STN AZ, as mentioned in The Zohar, indicating that through the fierce and strong judgment came out the SaTaN, which is the shells. It is also called GTz [a spark], to indicate what they said in The Book of Zohar, portion Pekudei, that these kings are the 320 sparks that were thrown, like that craftsman that hammered the iron and produced sparks. It is also as our sages said, “A spark that comes from under the hammer is SATNZ GTz.”
