Annotation God fashioned ten attributes by which He governs the world Passage פָּתַח¹ אֵלִיָּהוּ וְאָמַר: רִבּוֹן עָלְמִין, דְּאַנְתְּ הוּא חַד וְלָא בְחֻשְׁבָּן, אַנְתְּ הוּא עִלָּאָה עַל כָּל עִלָּאִין, סְתִימָא עַל כָּל סְתִימִין, לֵית מַחֲשָׁבָה תְּפִיסָא בָּךְ כְּלָל:² אַנְתְּ הוּא דְּאַפִּיקַת עֶשֶׂר תִּקּוּנִין,³ וְקָרֵינָן לְהוֹן עֶשֶׂר סְפִירָן, לְאַנְהָגָא בְּהוֹן עָלְמִין סְתִימִין דְּלָא אִתְגַּלְיָן, וְעָלְמִין דְּאִתְגַּלְיָן, וּבְהוֹן אִתְכַּסִיאַת מִבְּנֵי נָשָׁא, וְאַנְתְּ הוּא דְּקָשִׁיר לוֹן וּמְיַחֵד לוֹן, וּבְגִין דְּאַנְתְּ מַלְגָו, כָּל מַאן דְּאַפְרִישׁ חַד מֵחַבְרֵיהּ מֵאִלֵּין עֶשֶׂר סְפִירָן, אִתְחַשֵּׁב לֵיהּ כְּאִלּוּ אַפְרִישׁ בָּךְ: וְאִלֵּין עֶשֶׂר סְפִירָן אִנּוּן אָזְלִין כְּסִדְרָן, חַד אָרִיךְ וְחַד קָצִיר וְחַד בֵּינוֹנִי: וְאַנְתְּ הוּא דְּאַנְהִיג לוֹן, וְלֵית מַאן דְּאַנְהִיג לָךְ, לָא לְעֵלָא וְלָא לְתַתָּא וְלָא מִכָּל Elijah the Prophet <b>began</b>¹ his discourse and proclaimed: God, <b>Master of the worlds, You are One</b>—not that You are <b>counted</b> as foremost; rather You alone are that which truly is. <b>You stand above all the highest</b> spiritual <b>powers; You remain hidden from all that is hidden. No thought can seize</b> or fathom <b>You at all.</b>² <b>You are the One Who</b> fashioned and produced ten instruments. These instruments we term the “<b>ten attributes.</b>”³ You fashioned them <b>to govern and guide both the concealed worlds,</b> which are spiritual and remain undisclosed to us, <b>and the worlds that stand revealed.</b> By these attributes, <b>You conceal Yourself from human beings.</b> Though the attributes are numerous and appear distinct, <b>You bind them and join them</b> one to another, since all issue from You, and <b>You are One. And since You dwell within these attributes, anyone who divides any of these ten attributes from each other</b>—anyone who regards the attributes as distinct entities—is <b>reckoned as if he has wrought a division within You, God.</b> These ten attributes follow this design: <b>One long</b> attribute, which extends God’s goodness to all, without reckoning whether they merit it or not; <b>one short</b> attribute, which extends God’s goodness solely to those who merit it, and one <b>middle</b> attribute, which reckons who merits and who does not, yet compassionately grants to all. <b>You, God, are He Who steers them, and nobody steers You; not anyone above, not anyone below, and not anyone from any side. You likewise formed layers</b> pa|TACH e|li|ya|HU ve-a|MAR: ri|BON a|le|MIN, de-ANT hu chad ve|LA v'chush|BAN, ant hu i|la-AH al kol i|la-IN, s'ti|MA al kol s'ti|MIN, leit ma|cha|sha|VAH t'fi|SA bach k'LAL: ant hu de-a|pi|KAT E|ser ti|ku|NIN, ve|ka|rei|NAN le|HON E|ser s'fi|RAN, le-an|ha|GA be|HON a|le|MIN s'ti|MIN d'LA it|gal|YAN, ve-a|le|MIN de-it|gal|YAN, u|ve|HON it|ka|si-AT mib|NEI na|SHA, ve-ANT hu d'ka|SHIR lon u|me|ya|CHED lon, uv|GIN de-ANT mal|GAV, kol man de-af|RISH chad me|chav|REIH me-i|LEIN E|ser s'fi|RAN, it|cha|SHEV leih ke-i|LU af|RISH bach: ve-i|LEIN E|ser s'fi|RAN i|NUN az|LIN k'sid|RAN, chad a|RICH ve|CHAD ka|TZIR ve|CHAD bei|no|NI: ve-ANT hu de-an|HIG lon, ve|LEIT man de-an|HIG lach, la le-e|LA ve|LA le|ta|TA ve|LA mi|KOL pa|THAḥ ʾe|liy|ya|HU ve|ʾa|MAR: rib|BON ʿa|le|MIN, de|ʾANT huʾ ḥadh ve|LAʾ ve|ḥush|BAN, ʾant huʾ ʿil|la|ʾAH ʿal kol ʿil|la|ʾIN, se|thi|MAʾ ʿal kol se|thi|MIN, leth ma|ḥa|sha|VAH te|fi|SAʾ bakh ke|LAL: ʾant huʾ de|ʾap|pi|QATH ʿE|śer tiq|qu|NIN, ve|qa|re|NAN le|HON ʿE|śer se|fi|RAN, le|ʾan|ha|GHAʾ be|HON ʿa|le|MIN se|thi|MIN de|LAʾ ʾith|gal|YAN, ve|ʿa|le|MIN de|ʾith|gal|YAN, u|ve|HON ʾith|ka|si|ʾATH mib|be|NE na|SHAʾ, ve|ʾANT huʾ de|qa|SHIR lon u|me|ya|ḥEDH lon, u|ve|GHIN de|ʾANT mal|GHAV, kol maʾn de|ʾaf|RISH ḥadh me|ḥav|REH me|ʾil|LEN ʿE|śer se|fi|RAN, ʾith|ḥas|SHEV leh ke|ʾil|LU ʾaf|RISH bakh: ve|ʾil|LEN ʿE|śer se|fi|RAN ʾin|NUN ʾa|ze|LIN ke|sidh|RAN, ḥadh ʾa|RIKH ve|ḥADH qa|TZIR ve|ḥADH be|no|NI: ve|ʾANT huʾ de|ʾan|HIGH lon, ve|LETH maʾn de|ʾan|HIGH lakh, laʾ le|ʿe|LAʾ ve|LAʾ le|that|TAʾ ve|LAʾ mik|KOL pa|TAḥ e|liy|ya|HU ve|a|MAR: rib|BON ʿa|le|MIN, de|ANT hu ḥad ve|LA ve|ḥush|BAN, ant hu ʿil|la|AH ʿal kol ʿil|la|IN, se|ti|MA ʿal kol se|ti|MIN, let ma|ḥa|sha|VAH te|fi|SA bakh ke|LAL: ant hu de|ap|pi|QAT ʿE|ser tiq|qu|NIN, ve|qa|re|NAN le|HON ʿE|ser se|fi|RAN, le|an|ha|GA be|HON ʿa|le|MIN se|ti|MIN de|LA it|gal|YAN, ve|ʿa|le|MIN de|it|gal|YAN, u|ve|HON it|ka|si|AT mib|be|NE na|SHA, ve|ANT hu de|qa|SHIR lon u|me|ya|ḥED lon, u|ve|GIN de|ANT mal|GAV, kol man de|af|RISH ḥad me|ḥav|REH me|il|LEN ʿE|ser se|fi|RAN, it|ḥas|SHEV leh ke|il|LU af|RISH bakh: ve|il|LEN ʿE|ser se|fi|RAN in|NUN a|ze|LIN ke|sid|RAN, ḥad a|RIKH ve|ḥAD qa|TZIR ve|ḥAD be|no|NI: ve|ANT hu de|an|HIG lon, ve|LET man de|an|HIG lakh, la le|ʿe|LA ve|LA le|tat|TA ve|LA mik|KOL po|SACH ei|li|yo|HU v'o|MAR: ri|BOYN ol'|MIN, d'ANT hu chad v'LO v'chush|BON, ant hu i|lo-OH al kol i|lo-IN, s'si|MO al kol s'si|MIN, leis ma|cha|sho|VOH t'fi|SO boch k'LOL: ant hu d'a|pi|KAS E|ser ti|ku|NIN, v'ko|rei|NON l'HOYN E|ser s'fi|RON, l'an|ho|GO b'HOYN ol'|MIN s'si|MIN d'LO is|gal|YON, v'ol'|MIN d'is|gal|YON, uv'|HOYN is|ka|si-AS mib'|NEI no|SHO, v'ANT hu d'ko|SHIR loyn um'|ya|CHEID loyn, uv'|GIN d'ANT mal|GOV, kol man d'af|RISH chad mei|chav|REIH mei-i|LEIN E|ser s'fi|RON, is|cha|SHEIV leih k'i|LU af|RISH boch: v'i|LEIN E|ser s'fi|RON i|NUN oz'|LIN k'sid|RON, chad o|RICH v'CHAD ko|TZIR v'CHAD bei|noy|NI: v'ANT hu d'an|HIG loyn, v'LEIS man d'an|HIG loch, lo l'ei|LO v'LO l'sa|TO v'LO mi|KOL Passage סִטְרָא: לְבוּשִׁין תְּקִינַת לוֹן, דְּמִנַּיְהוּ פָּרְחִין נִשְׁמָתִין לִבְנֵי נָשָׁא: וְכַמָּה גוּפִין תְּקִינַת לוֹן, דְּאִתְקְרִיאוּ גוּפִין לְגַבֵּי לְבוּשִׁין דִּמְכַסְיָן עֲלֵיהוֹן, וְאִתְקְרִיאוּ בְּתִקּוּנָא דָא: חֶסֶד דְּרוֹעָא יְמִינָא: גְּבוּרָה דְרוֹעָא שְׂמָאלָא: תִּפְאֶרֶת גּוּפָא:⁴ נֶצַח וְהוֹד תְּרֵין שׁוֹקִין: יְסוֹד סִיּוּמָא דְגוּפָא אוֹת בְּרִית קֹדֶשׁ: מַלְכוּת פֶּה, תּוֹרָה שֶׁבְּעַל פֶּה קָרֵינָן לָהּ: חָכְמָה מוֹחָא אִיהִי מַחֲשָׁבָה מִלְגָו: בִּינָה לִבָּא וּבָהּ הַלֵּב מֵבִין, וְעַל אִלֵּין תְּרֵין כְּתִיב הַנִּסְתָּרוֹת לַיהוָה אֱלֹהֵינוּ:⁵ כֶּתֶר עֶלְיוֹן אִיהוּ כֶּתֶר מַלְכוּת, וְעָלֵיהּ אִתְּמַר מַגִּיד מֵרֵאשִׁית אַחֲרִית, וְאִיהוּ קַרְקַפְתָּא דִּתְפִלִּין, מִלְגָו אִיהוּ שֵׁם מַה כְּגוֹן: יוֹ״ד הֵ״א וָא״ו הֵ״א of spiritual <b>garments</b> for these attributes, to veil their immense holiness, so that <b>souls may fly forth from them and</b> enter this world to grant human beings life. Absent their garments, the holy attributes could not bring souls into our physical, unholy world. You <b>fashioned several</b> attributes, which serve as bodies to these <b>garments;</b> they are termed “<b>bodies</b>” when set <b>beside the garments that cover over them.</b> The attributes are <b>named</b> body parts. Each is likened to a distinct part of the body, <b>as follows: Chessed,</b> kindness, is likened <b>to the right arm. Gevurah,</b> severity and power, is likened <b>to the left arm. Tiferet,</b> harmony, is likened to the principal <b>part of the body,</b>⁴ the chest and stomach area. <b>Netzach,</b> victory, <b>and Hod,</b> glory, are likened to the two thighs. <b>Yesod,</b> foundation, is likened <b>to the end of</b> the principal part of the body, which is the <b>sign of the holy</b> Circumcision—the Covenant that God established with the Jewish Nation. <b>Malchut,</b> royalty and kingship, is likened to the mouth, which utters and clarifies a person’s thoughts. Hence <b>we call</b> Malchut “<b>Oral Torah,</b>” for the Oral Torah clarifies the meaning of Written Torah. <b>Chochmah,</b> wisdom, is likened <b>to the brain;</b> that is, the thoughts that lie <b>inside</b> the brain. <b>Binah,</b> understanding, is likened to <b>the heart,</b> for when a person <b>understands</b> a matter properly, <b>the heart</b> feels it. <b>Concerning these</b> last two attributes—Chochmah, wisdom and Binah, understanding, both concealed as a person’s thoughts are—the Torah writes: <b>The hidden things belong to the Lord,</b> our God, for He alone knows of them.⁵ Highest among all the attributes is <b>Keter, Supernal Crown;</b> it resembles a royal crown upon a person. The verse in Isaiah says of Keter: <b>From the beginning He tells what the end is.</b> Keter is likewise like a head upon which tefillin are set; it encompasses the attributes, just as a head encompasses the brain and tefillin encompass the Torah passages within them. Within every attribute lies the force of God’s name of <b>Mah</b>—the name whose numerical value is 45. God employs this name to sit|RA: le|vu|SHIN t'ki|NAT lon, d'mi|nay|HU pa|re|CHIN nish|ma|TIN liv|NEI na|SHA: ve|cha|MAH gu|FIN t'ki|NAT lon, de-it|ke|ri|U gu|FIN le|ga|BEI le|vu|SHIN dim|chas|YAN a|lei|HON, ve-it|ke|ri|U b'ti|ku|NA da: CHE|sed d'ro-A ye|mi|NA: g'vu|RAH d'ro-A s'ma|LA: tif|E|ret gu|FA: NE|tzach ve|HOD t'REIN sho|KIN: ye|SOD si|yu|MA d'gu|FA ot b'RIT KO|desh: mal|CHUT peh, to|RAH she|be-AL peh ka|rei|NAN lah: choch|MAH mo|CHA i|HI ma|cha|sha|VAH mil|GAV: bi|NAH li|BA u|VAH ha|LEV me|VIN, ve-AL i|LEIN t'REIN k'TIV ha|nis|ta|ROT la|do|NAI e|lo|HEI|nu: KE|ter el|YON i|HU KE|ter mal|CHUT, ve-a|LEIH it|MAR ma|GID me|rei|SHIT a|cha|RIT, ve-i|HU kar|kaf|TA dit|fi|LIN, mil|GAV i|HU shem mah k'GON: yod hei vav hei siṭ|RAʾ: le|vu|SHIN te|qi|NATH lon, de|min|nay|HU pa|re|ḥIN nish|ma|THIN liv|NE na|SHAʾ: ve|kham|MAH ghu|FIN te|qi|NATH lon, de|ʾith|qe|ri|ʾU ghu|FIN le|ghab|BE le|vu|SHIN dim|khas|YAN ʿa|le|HON, ve|ʾith|qe|ri|ʾU be|thiq|qu|NAʾ dhaʾ: ḥE|sedh de|ro|ʿAʾ ye|mi|NAʾ: ge|vu|RAH dhe|ro|ʿAʾ śe|maʾ|LAʾ: tif|ʾE|reth gu|FAʾ: NE|tzaḥ ve|HODH te|REN sho|QIN: ye|SODH siy|yu|MAʾ dhe|ghu|FAʾ ʾoth be|RITH QO|dhesh: mal|KHUTH peh, to|RAH sheb|be|ʿAL peh qa|re|NAN lah: ḥokh|MAH mo|ḥAʾ ʾi|HI ma|ḥa|sha|VAH mil|GHAV: bi|NAH lib|BAʾ u|VAH hal|LEV me|VIN, ve|ʿAL ʾil|LEN te|REN ke|THIV han|nis|ta|ROTH la|do|NAI ʾe|lo|HE|nu: KE|ther ʿel|YON ʾi|HU KE|ther mal|KHUTH, ve|ʿa|LEH ʾit|te|MAR mag|GIDH me|reʾ|SHITH ʾa|ḥa|RITH, ve|ʾi|HU qar|qaf|TAʾ dith|fil|LIN, mil|GHAV ʾi|HU shem mah ke|GHON: yodh heʾ vaʾv heʾ sit|RA: le|vu|SHIN te|qi|NAT lon, de|min|nay|HU pa|re|ḥIN nish|ma|TIN liv|NE na|SHA: ve|kham|MAH gu|FIN te|qi|NAT lon, de|it|qe|ri|U gu|FIN le|gab|BE le|vu|SHIN dim|khas|YAN ʿa|le|HON, ve|it|qe|ri|U be|tiq|qu|NA da: ḥE|sed de|ro|ʿA ye|mi|NA: ge|vu|RAH de|ro|ʿA se|ma|LA: tif|E|ret gu|FA: NE|tzaḥ ve|HOD te|REN sho|QIN: ye|SOD siy|yu|MA de|gu|FA ot be|RIT QO|desh: mal|KHUT peh, to|RAH sheb|be|ʿAL peh qa|re|NAN lah: ḥokh|MAH mo|ḥA i|HI ma|ḥa|sha|VAH mil|GAV: bi|NAH lib|BA u|VAH hal|LEV me|VIN, ve|ʿAL il|LEN te|REN ke|TIV han|nis|ta|ROT la|do|NAI e|lo|HE|nu: KE|ter ʿel|YON i|HU KE|ter mal|KHUT, ve|ʿa|LEH it|te|MAR mag|GID me|re|SHIT a|ḥa|RIT, ve|i|HU qar|qaf|TA dit|fil|LIN, mil|GAV i|HU shem mah ke|GON: yod he vav he sit|RO: l'vu|SHIN t'ki|NAS loyn, d'mi|nay|HU por'|CHIN nish|mo|SIN liv|NEI no|SHO: v'cha|MOH gu|FIN t'ki|NAS loyn, d'is|k'ri|U gu|FIN l'ga|BEI l'vu|SHIN dim|chas|YON a|lei|HOYN, v'is|k'ri|U b'si|ku|NO do: CHE|sed d'roy-O y'mi|NO: g'vu|ROH d'roy-O s'mo|LO: tif|E|res gu|FO: NE|tzach v'HOYD t'REIN shoy|KIN: y'SOYD si|yu|MO d'gu|FO oys b'RIS KOY|desh: mal|CHUS peh, toy|ROH sheb'-AL peh ko|rei|NON loh: choch|MOH moy|CHO i|HI ma|cha|sho|VOH mil|GOV: bi|NOH li|BO u|VOH ha|LEIV mei|VIN, v'AL i|LEIN t'REIN k'SIV ha|nis|to|ROYS la|do|NOY e|loy|HEI|nu: KE|ser el|YOYN i|HU KE|ser mal|CHUS, v'o|LEIH it'|MAR ma|GID mei|rei|SHIS a|cha|RIS, v'i|HU kar|kaf|TO dis|fi|LIN, mil|GOV i|HU sheim mah k'GOYN: yoyd hei vov hei parent /siddur/tehillat-hashem-weiss.xml prev /siddur/tehillat-hashem-weiss/262-263-262-263-minchah-for-friday-.xml next /siddur/tehillat-hashem-weiss/266-267-266-267-minchah-for-friday-.xml
