The Ari's Text

Therefore the ten Sefirot of ZA are considered from Chokhma and below, which is called "beginning" (Reshit), as mentioned, and not from Keter. And also not from Chesed and below, but from Chokhma and below, for everything is considered as the body of ZA itself; and they are Chokhma, Bina, Daat, Chesed, Gevura, Tifferet, Netzach, Hod, Yesod. And understand this rule.

This commentary hasn't been matched to individual seifim yet — items are shown in reading order, and the number beside each one counts the notes themselves, not the seifim of the Ari's text.

Not matched to a seif

1The ten Sefirot of ZA are reckoned from Hochma and below, called the beginning, and not from Keter and below: Namely for the reason that the Keter of ZA — besides its vessel being from the Tifferet of Tevuna — the light within it, too, is found to be of the discernment of Tevuna; therefore the Keter is not reckoned to the discernment of ZA, and it begins only from Hochma, as stated in its place.
