Part 14 · Chapter 228

The Ari's Text

And just as above, in the first correction of Arich Anpin, there is "Who is like You, G-d," so too here in ZA there is "El" also in the first correction literally. And the second correction of Arich Anpin, which is "forgiving iniquity," is the tenth correction in ZA.

1And the second correction of AA, which is the bearer of iniquity, is the tenth correction in ZA. That is, according to the names that are in Micah, where correction 1 is “Who is a God like You,” and 2 is “bearer of iniquity,” etc.; and it is the tenth correction according to the names that are in the Torah, in the thirteen qualities, where “bearer of iniquity” is the tenth, “and transgression” the eleventh, “and sin” the twelfth, and VeNakeh the thirteenth, as is known. And the fact that he counts them after the name of ZA is as the Zohar writes, that the thirteen qualities that are in the Torah are from the discernment of their reception in ZA. And these are his words in the Idra Rabba, page 131b: “Thirteen qualities of mercy of Atika Kadisha: ‘Who is a God like You’ is one, ‘bearer of iniquity’ is two, etc.; corresponding to this, ‘God, merciful and gracious,’ etc., and they are below” — that is, in ZA. Study it there well. And we have already elaborated on this in Part 13.
