Part 8 · Chapter 72

The Ari's Text

Indeed, from Ban, Aba took the six extremities of Chochma of Ban, for Atik had already taken the three first ones for the sake of his female. And the Malchut of Chochma of Ban was taken by Yeshsut, and therefore he too is alluded to in the secret of the female, in the first Heh of HaVaYaH, as is known. And indeed, from Bina of Ban — the four uppermost, which are Keter, Chochma, Bina, and Chesed — Atik took them; and then the five extremities of Bina of Ban, which are the three lower ones, Netzach, Hod, Yesod, were taken by Ima. And the Malchut of Bina of Ban was taken by Tevuna.

1From BON, Aba took the VAK of Hochma of BON, etc.: and one must understand well the reason for this order of division of MA and BON between the upper AVI and YESHSUT; and we have already explained this above (page 654, the passage beginning, “And indeed”), and from there you shall derive it.
2The five extremities of Bina of BON, which are the three lower ones, NHY: it should read, Gevura, Tifferet and the three lower ones, NHY.
