A Letter Is A Spiritual Vessel

Question: What came first, the wisdom of Kabbalah or the Hebrew language?

Answer: The wisdom of Kabbalah is a system for attaining the upper leadership, and as you study it, you begin to discover its letters and its forces, which the language of the leadership. This language is called Hebrew.

Question: Can we analyze this process with the example of the letter “Aleph”? After all, there is so much in that.

Answer: There is a great deal in all the Hebrew letters.

“Aleph” is the first letter of the Hebrew alphabet.

The right upper element represents the letter “Yod,” the tenth letter of the alphabet, which corresponds with GE (Galgalta ve Eynaim), the vessels of bestowal. The left lower element represents the fourth letter of the alphabet “Dalet,” which corresponds with AHP, which are vessels of receiving.

A line called Parsa (border), the dividing part, crosses the two elements, and separates one letter from the other.

In fact, the letter “Aleph” includes the whole spiritual vessel. If we take ten Sefirot: Keter, Hochma, Bina, Zeir Anpin (which includes 6 Sefirot) and Malchut, GE are before the border from the upper side until Bina and AHP are below.
