Part 12 · Chapter 30

The Ari's Text

And therefore the Temple was destroyed in the fifth millennium, which is opposite Hod; and as we wrote in the matter of “the lie has no legs,” which is the shell, which has a hold not in the two legs but only in the left leg of Hod, which is the long leg of the monkey, and it is the left. And she herself is the Hey of Hod, which became a long Kof [monkey]. Therefore, from her and below was not clarified, for there are in them many shells.

Not matched to a seif

1The left Hod, which is the long leg of the monkey, etc.; therefore from her and below was not sorted, for there are in them many shells: It has already been clarified above, that Hod is the root of Malchut, whose principal sorting is after the greatness of ZA, and has not yet reached the point of being completely sorted now — see above, in the adjacent item. However, in truth, this Hod, which is Malchut, is not sorted completely even in the separate Nukva of ZA, but rather her sortings continue throughout the entire six thousand years, until the completion of correction. It is thus found that the entire hold of the shells is in the Malchut, which is Hod, for her sortings are not completed except at the completion of correction.
