W7B fear, terror, dread, object of fear. One of
the names of the 5th Sephirah. It represents the
emotional approach of ignorance to the rigid
severities of natural law and natural forces. A
clue to the deeper meaning of the name Pachad is
the plural form, [B*m3], "loins" or "thighs" in
the English Bible, in Latin versions it is called
testiculi. This links with the meaning of
Geburah as the Sphere of Mars, for Geburah is
held to be the seat of virile strength, and Mars
rules the reproductive functions governed by
Scorpio. (Pachad is translated "stones" in Job
40: 17.) see 64,95,2 16, 142,297, 850.
Ton thy loving kindness [Psalm 138:2]. It

interpret correctly as loving kindness. Note that
the latter is Chesed, the fourth Sephirah. see 72,
