The bottom six of Assiya were in the place where now the first six of Yetzira are and the first four of Assiya were in the place where the last four of Beria are now. The last six of Yetzira where in the place where the first six of Beria are now and the first four of Yetzira were in the place where Nukva de ZA de Atzilut now is. You already know that she only takes the place of the last four of ZA, namely Netzah Hod Yesod Malchut in him. She stands opposite them from behind, hence the name Dalet, since her place is only in the four mentioned Sefirot.

1The bottom six of Assiya were in the place where now the first six of Yetzira. Here we must remember what the Rav wrote above (item 20) that only ZON are sorted in the Betenof Ima and nothing more, and Rosh de Beria is sorted in Beten Nukva de ZA de Atzilut.The rule is that every Partzuf is emanated in its adjacent Upper degree. You can see that according to the current state of the Olamot, ZA is in Behinat VAK and Nukva in Behinat Nekuda from the perspective of the permanent state. From that state it is impossible that the Rosh of Beria will come out from the Beten of Nukva de Atzilut.This is so because when even for herself she is not a Partzuf, how can she emanate a second Partzuf below her? The rule is that the Partzuf cannot emanate a Partzuf Tachton below it before it grows to Behinat Neshama in itself (see item 60).The Rav elaborated here to explain the order of the emergence of BYA from its beginning so as to teach us that the Olamot were not in the same situation as ZA is now, in a state of VAK and Nukva in Behinat Nekuda. Rather, ZA was then in Komat Abba which is Behinat Mochin de Haya and Nukva was in Komat Ima which is Mochin de Neshama. Then Beria could be sorted in the Beten of Nukva until she was completed and could sort the Olam Yetzira, and also Yetzira sort Olam Assiya.With the above we can also understand the order of the state of the three Olamot BYA that the Rav wrote here. It is known that when the Tachton rises to its Elyon it becomes exactly like the degree of the Elyon, as the Rav will write in item 60.It follows, that Nukva that rose to Komat Ima becomes completely like Ima and everything that is emanated from Ima is considered as the degree of ZA. This is because only Behinot ZA are sorted in Ima’s Beten (item 20). Thus, the Eser Sefirot de Beria must have been in the place of ZA because when Nukva is in Behinat Ima then Beria, which is emanated from it, is in the degree of ZA.Also, since Olam Beria was then in the degree of ZA, the first four Sefirot of Olam Yetzira that emanates from it are considered to be in the degree of Nukva de ZA which clothes ZA from his Chazeh downward. Since Beria is in the degree of ZA the Ne’etzal from ZA is always his Behinat Nukva.However, there are two degrees in the Nukva: Achor be Achor with the ZA from the Chazeh down, and Panim be Panim with the ZA on an equal Koma. The general state of the Olamot was still in Behinat Achor be Achor before Adam ha Rishon was created, as it is known that ZON themselves, when they rose to AVI. Consequently, they were still in a state of Achor be Achor.This is so because ZA rose to Abba, called Upper AVI and Nukva rose only to Ima, called YESHSUT. It follows that Nukva clothes there only from the Chazeh de ZA downward in the same manner as the Halbasha of YESHSUT to the Upper AVI.Thus, the Upper ZON are also only in Behinat from the Chazeh down Achor be Achor. Thus, although Olam Yetzira received the Behinat Nukva de ZA because of its exit from Beria which was Behinat ZA, she only received the first degree of Nukva, meaning Behinat Chazeh de ZA Achor be Achor downward.For that reason only the first four of Yetzira became the degree of Nukva de ZA, but the bottom six of Yetzira descended to the current Behinat Beria, meaning below Parsa de Atzilut. This is because the Behinat Nukva de ZA takes only four Sefirot while being Achor be Achor from the Chazeh down and the rest of her Sefirot are in Beria.Also, since Olam Yetzira became the degree of Nukva de ZA, it is considered that Olam Assiya that comes out of it, the first four Sefirot de Assiya became the degree of Olam Beria. This is because in Beten de Nukva de ZA only Olam Beria is sorted.However, Nukva herself had only the first four Sefirot in Atzilut and the six lower Sefirot were in the degree of the first six of Olam Beria. Hence only the first four Sefirot of Olam Assiya, which is sorted by her, were in Olam Beria since they extend from the first four Sefirot de Nukva.Yet, her six bottom are considered to have been emanated from the bottom six of Nukva that were on the degree of Beria, and everything that comes from the degree of Beria is considered as the degree of Yetzira. For this reason the bottom six of Olam Assiya descended to the first six of Olam Yetzira.Thus we have thoroughly explained the necessity of the state in the Olamot and their degree, that they must be as in the order that the Rav explains here. This is because no sorting is possible in the Beten of Nukva before she acquires Partzuf Neshama.It follows that she must clothe Ima and since the Nukva already stood in the degree of Ima, then all the states that the Rav has already written must be so. You will also learn here that all the Olamot BYA came out of Nukva de Atzilut.This is because not only did Olam Beria come out of Nukva that is in the place of Ima, when Olam Assiya emerged from Yetzira, the Yetzira was literally in the degree of Nukva de Atzilut. It follows that Olam Assiya too came out of Nukva de Atzilut, but from the Behinat Achor be Achor de Nukva.
