life (5) comes into existence (10) and acquires
the appearance of a metamorphosis (40) which
offers resistance to life and therefore gives birth
to living beings. [ibid. p. 1841
IV. The Zohar [I:15B] Comments: "When,
however it [the house, Beth] was sown with seed
to make it habitable, it was called Elohim,
hidden and mysterious. The Zohar was hidden
and withdrawn so long as the building was
within and yet to bring forth and the house was
extended only so far as to find room for the holy
seed. Before it had conceived and had extended
sufficiency to be habitable, it was not called
Elohim, but all was still included in the term
Bereshith [913]. After it had acquired the name
Elohim, it brought forth offspring from the seed
that had been implanted in it." (p. 64)

everything in the field of manifestation, which is

n517~7 5~ "the great meadow." Incorrectly
translated in the English Bible as the "Great
stone of Abel." Do not confuse Abel with the
name of the 2"* son of Adam and Eve. The
"Great Meadow" symbolizes the field of cosmic
manifestation, relating to Cheth as the field or
fence of human personality within the
boundaries of the absolute. see 1 Samuel 6: 18
v 2 that which concerns me, what surrounds
me, i.e. my environment. "What surrounds me"
is the "Great Meadow," the field of cosmic
manifestation. The field is itself WITHIN the
encompassing being of the One Reality. See
Psalm 138:8.
my servants [Isaiah 65:13, Psalm 135:Il.
These are the servants of #?!'I?!', the powers which
surround us and constitute our environment and
represented by PR~N, Elohim (86). The Great
Meadow which constitutes what surrounds me
contains nothing but the servants of
Tetragrammaton, and these are the creative
powers called Elohim in Genesis. The power of
specialization corresponding to Binah and the
first Heh in %T. see 162
P'l5 Levites, the class of priest among the
Jews. In Deuteronomy 18: 1 : "The priest, who are
Levites-indeed the whole tribe of Levi-are to
have no allotment or inheritance with Israel.
They shall live on the offerings made to the Lord

3 separative. From a verb meaning: to be
divided, separated, set apart; similar to the
English "to distinguish". The 6th path is the
Intelligence of Mediating or Separative
Influence. The Separative Intelligence is a mode
of consciousness which acts in man as the
discriminative power that classifies various
objects of experience. A formula for the powers
of the Elohim. They manifest through
imagination (Nun), self-conscious effort (Beth),
desire (Daleth) and action through balance
(Lamed). The sonship of man makes him heir for
the powers of the Elohim. see 1081, 536, 548,
640, 886.

of the special names of Kether (m) and
Malkuth ('j'lN), and thus asserting the identity of
these two Sephiroth. It is written, therefore that
"Kether is in Malkuth and Malkuth is in Kether,
but after another manner." It is also the secret of
the saying "I and the father are one." In this
connection remember that the holy Spirit came
as fire. see 2 1,65,386, 620,496.
120 pavilion, tent. "His tabernacle," where it is
said to be in Salem (i.e. in peace). This brings
out the idea that Elohim is the name used in
Psalm 76. [The spelling of sukkoh in Psalm 76 is
a longer spelling. This is the defective spelling
for special Qabalistic emphasis.] see 370, 376,
