The Five
Books of the Pact
Fourth Tablet – Aaron
Step 1 – (Exod. 4, 14-16) 'and
God became angry with Moses, and said, but of Aaron, your brother of Levi, I
know that he will certainly speak; and he is now coming towards you and he will
see you and rejoice in his heart. (15) And you will speak to him and place
these words in his mouth; and I will be with your mouth and with his mouth, and
I will show you what to do. (16) And he will speak for you to the people; and
he will be for you the mouth and you will be for him as lord. (ibid 30) and
Aaron spoke all the words that God had spoken to Moses, and he made the signs
to the eyes of the people. (ibid 6, 13) and God spoke to Moses and to Aaron,
and commanded them on behalf of the children of Israel and concerning Pharaoh
king of Egypt that he to take the children out of Egypt, (ibid 7,1) and God said to Moses, see that I have made you lord
over Pharaoh, and your brother Aaron will be your spokesman (neviecha).
These verses demonstrate the greatness
of Aaron, Moses' elder brother, peace be upon him even before he was the High
Priest. Aaron was loved by God Almighty and he was a prophet who received the
words of Ha-Shem.
God's anger to Moses was due to
his excessive humbleness above the just measure tending to lower himself in a way that lessoned the action for which he was
sent. Moses was chosen for his inner humility but Ha-Shem did not desire that
because of humility he should not feel himself worthy to fulfill a mission.
For 7 full days Moses refused the
mission until, as explained by the Teacher Haim, his feet
began to walk by themselves; he then called to Ha-Shem "What's this,
Master of the world?" Ha-Shem answered, "If you receive my will, good, and if not I'll send you against your will" until
Moses said, I receive it but allow me to kiss my children and be separated from
my family serenely". Ha-Shem agreed but Moses said, "Aaron is my
older brother, is he not more worthy than I"? Then God was angry with
Moses and said, "but of Aaron, your brother of
Levi, I know that he will certainly speak; and he is now coming towards you and
he will see you and rejoice in his heart".
Not for any lack of faith, God
forbid, or for stubbornness but due to his humbleness overriding the just
measure until it diminished the required action. For what would Moses'
humbleness accomplish if it would not be used for a mission of salvation for
all!
Such is the difference in all thos 7 days between the thought of Ha-Shem, Blessed is He,
and Moses' thought. Moses due to his humility thought about his unworthiness
and God Almighty thought about the mission to save the people. Moses because of
his humbleness didn't understand that it was precisely for that humility that just
he had been chosen for that mission.
If not for this point, how would
Ha-Shem have supported such a refusal from any person! Moses, however, was
greatly loved by God because he was the humblest on the face of the earth; therefore
Ha-Shem was ready to insist even for 7 days, listening to his pleas and
answering him with Divine Patience.
For 7 days but not more for even
if Moses' humility went against the mission, Ha-Shem commanded his feet to go;
and when Moses still asked about Aaron, God reminded him, with a certain level
of anger, that his excessive humbleness had made him forget the completeness of
God's knowledge, as if Moses knew the greatness of Aaron and not God, who
answered, "Have I then not known that Aaron will speak for you and it's
not you who has to tell me this but nevertheless I am sending you, for I have
already seen and prepared everything you need to accomplish the mission; for I
will be with your mouth and with his mouth, and I will show you what to do --
and God said to Moses, see that I have made you lord over Pharaoh, and your
brother Aaron will be your spokesman.
Step 2 – We see here Aaron's high
level before God who already wanted to put him as second in that incredible
task. In general the redemption needs two persons as here, 'I have made you
lord over Pharaoh, and your brother Aaron will be your spokesman'. The level of
Aaron is known in all Tradition and, aside from his level as High Priest, his
love for the people of Israel and his closeness to them was exceptional.
In this text we must try to
understand the sin that even 'your fathers didn't recognize' and that issued
from the hands of Aaron without his recognizing the idolatry of the Golden Calf
and his inability to avoid the error of the mixed multitude and a part of the
people itself.
Step 3 – It will help first of
all to see the bond between that sin in that time and the sin of the Last Times
of 400 years, ba-avonot, the sin of the Zohar and all the false Kabbala
that issued from the doctrine of Emanation. It relates to the first sin of the
Golden Calf but in order to understand and appreciate it one must study the
Second Commandment.
Our vision is in the general
logic of the Final Redemption in which what is in the Torah becomes completed
bringing us to a completion in understanding also regarding the First Signs of
the Torah in their time and during the centuries until the Geula
Shleima.
In Isaiah 44, 6 - The Torah is
completed, for example, in Isaiah 44,6, 'I am the
First and I am the Last and there is no god outside of Me'. – When the historic
time of 'I am the Last' comes, the first time is completed, verified and
justified, for 'I am' and 'I am' and there is no other god.
In the world at large the true
God is unknown until the Geula Shleima
on which it states (Jeremiah 31,33) 'No longer will
one teach his friend or his brother saying, "Know God", for all will
know Me from the smallest to the greatest (or from the youngest to the elderly).
Still in our time there are many who do not know God and there are many who
perform idolatry. The modern world is filled with idolatry and other gods from
every kind and in every form. But the worst general sin is bowing down the
great idolatrous Mamon, Satan's General in matters of
money. The false god Mamon is thickly black and he
throws down the masses with his power and convinces them to love him, and they
have no strength to rebel against him and they bow down to him without
realizing their sin.
There are also many who err because
of scientific knowledge and many who negate God and believe themselves superior
to those foolish people who believe. In truth they are placing their own
intellect as higher than the Wisdom of God and this is a great sin.
And there are those whose
idolatry involves sex and forbidden fornications and unnatural sex. Their sex
becomes an idolatrous cult in itself and they are far from God Israel who loves
modesty and clean thoughts in all one does and who hates promiscuity and
abominable unnatural sex.
There are, of course, ten
thousand variations in each category, and all have an element of idolatrous
cult. And there is still a world filled with idolatrous statues and idolatrous
cults as stated in Torah with their false basis. There are many in Africa and
Asia, apart from those who became Muslims.
And let's not forget Christianity
that does not recognize the true monotheism of the true Tradition.
Step 4 - Nevertheless, all the
verses that speak of idolatry are not only for the nations but also for Israel,
until the Last Days, not only in Ephraim but also in Judah. It's not possible
that all the prophecies concerning idolatry is only
part of the past. 'And the actions of the Patriarchs are 'signs' to their descendents'. Abraham alludes to the First Redemption,
Yitzhak to the Redemption of Purim and Jacob to the Final Redemption. The 20
years with Laban became 2000 years of galut for Israel among the nations. Important is the
allusion in the Torah with Jacob, our father, in his returning to the land of
Canaan, after his meeting with Esau and his preparation for going to Beth El.
Step 5 – 2 - 'And Jacob said to
his household and to those who were with him: 'Remove the foreign gods that are
with you and purify yourselves and change your garments. 3 – and
we will stand up and go up to Beth El, and there I will make an altar to God
who answers me on the day of my affliction and He is with me in the way that I
go. 4 – (Gen. 34, 2-4) And they gave to Jacob all the
foreign gods in their hands and the rings in their ears, and Jacob buried them
under the 'ala' (oak tree) of Shechem.
This is an allusion to the time
of the Final Redemption since Jacob, our father, alludes to the Final name, and
his return to Canaan alludes to the establishment of the State of Israel in
1948, and the time between his return and his going to Beth El alludes to the
period from the establishment of Israel and the eventual construction of the
Third and Final Temple in Jerusalem.
Therefore no extra faith is
necessary to understand that between Jacob's return to Canaan and his going up to Beth El there are still foreign gods that must
be removed, idolatry that renders the person impure as well as one's clothing.
This historic sign of Israel's existence is already fixed into Ha-Shem's Design
and it will never again go away.
After said allusion we need to
understand which idolatrous sin is spoken about and what part of the people is
involved in it.
In connection to this, other
things can be understood from the verse : (Gen. 34,
2-4) 'And they gave to Jacob all the foreign gods in their hands and the rings
in their ears, and Jacob buried them under the 'ala' (oak tree) of Shechem'. 'And they gave' properly a removing and giving of
something; this is because when the terrible error will be recognized, the
idolatrous doctrine of the Zohar and all the false Kabbala that followed it will be clearly seen as idolatry
in form and in substance.
'And the earrings in their ears'
– this was even worse than if they had simply hidden them in their tents since
they wore them in public. And there is no correction except by burying them
under the ala which alludes to this Herem D'Oraita against the impure gods and partzufim
of the Zohar and all the other foreign gods that
issued from it and against the false messianism of Habad and against the Institute of Rav.
Ashlag and
his book the Sulam, a commentary on the Zohar.
The earrings in
their ears demonstrates that they believe in the Zohar
and they ornament themselves with it; they are proud of it and they walk in
that 'logic'. But that doctrine is only within itself and has no true basis. Whatever
comes out of it will seem logical and correct as does the Christian doctrine of
the trinity when taken as truth with thousands of books written about it. They
all become invalid once the true basis of monotheism is recognized and what
they believed to be the truth becomes a stinking and idolatrous falsehood on
their tongue, brain and heart.
Step 6 – That same Christian sage
when he arrives at the true faith will invalidate all that he had written; the
faith in the One and only Creator is the truth. The faith in a trinity: God the
Father, God the Son and the Holy Spirit is completely false.
This is 'and Jacob hid them under
the ala'. Jacob ordered them to handover the foreign gods; he didn't break or
smash them up or burn them but all at once he buried them under the ala. Ala
has two forms with tzereh, kamatz
(tree) or kamatz, kametz (curse)
as the curse for practicing idolatry. He warned them against the curse of
idolatry and was thus not afraid they would dig them up.
So it is in ahhrit
ha-yamim, when the people of Israel will know of the
false Kabbalah of the Zohar
and all the false Movements that issued from it, all will taken and hidden
under the curse of the Hherem MiDeoraita,
and no son or daughter of Israel from the highest of the Hachamim
to the simplest Jews will study it or use its idolatrous ideas.
Great fear and trembling will be
felt: and there was the awe of God on the cities around them, and they did not
pursue the children of Jacob. The verse alludes to the higher sanctity that
falls upon the land, indeed, on the world, in that sanctification in the purification
of the people of Jacob from the 'avon ketz' the sin of the end time. 'and
Jacob buried them beneath the ala that was close to Shechem.
From this sanctification, the fear of God falls on all the nations. Before this
it states 'and Jacob hid them under the ala near Shechem'.
'That is near Shechem' alludes to the Ten Lost Tribes
found in Christianity since Yosef who is bound to Shechem represents Ten Tribes whose souls became dispersed mostly
among the Christian nations.
The allusion comes to compare
'and the fear of God was on all the cities' to the purification of the Zohar: it will become known in the world 'and sons will
return to their confines'; many of those souls are rooted in Israel and were
present at Sinai. And then many of the Christian nations, men and women, will
understand the matter of the purified faith of Israel and will seek the truth
on Mount Zion in Jerusalem.
Step 7 – All are astounded by
these verses about Jacob and the foreign gods found in his household's tents. Rashi says that the foreign gods and the earrings came out
of the plunder of Shechem after Shimon and Levi
destroyed it.
This was no small thing reason
for which it's mentioned in the Torah. Even if we go according to Rashi, his memory be blessed, it's still without a
solution. Why did Jacob not do something previously when seeing the idolatrous
earrings on them? Were the happenings of his household unknown to him until he
was commanded to go up to Beth El.
There was no similar sign in
Abraham or Isaac. But in the Jacob Signs it alludes to this present Fourth
Generation of the Final Redemption and the sin of the End Time.
It is for this sin of the belief
in Emanation that the Third Templle cannot yet be
built. At first the Zohar and all the False Kabbala that invests itself in Hassidism and false Messiahs
must be destroyed.
The sin of the End Time is called
such because it's the extreme evil in its damage and the 'jealousy' of God
against it. For it's not a sin that has remained outside of Judaism but has
become, God save us, an integral part of Judaism, not among the Jews who don't
know Torah but rather the religious and knowledgeable in Torah. There is no
shame greater than this that there be an idolatrous Golden Calf in Judaism
against the true monotheistic faith.
Step 8 – The main sin that came
out of Aaron's hands in the sin of the Golden Calf was that he didn't
understand the idolatrous mentality of the mixed-multitude in their desiring
the Calf and did not perceive in this a sin in itself, until he saw the actions
and comportment around the Calf; and then Moses came down from the Mountain.
So must it be interpreted, in
spite of the Hachamim's attempt to put the blame on
Aaron's fear after Hhor, son of Miriam, was killed;
that if he too would be killed, there would be a destruction of the entire
people, Hhass ve-Shalom.
If, however, Aaron feared for his
being killed, would that be then worse than committing idolatry together with
people?
The entire story of the Golden Calf
and Aaron's sin is not very clear. For example, after the mixed-multitude said
to Aaron (Exod. 32,1), "arise and make for us a God (Elohim)
that will go (plural) before us because this man Moses who brought us up from
Egypt, we know not what has happened to him" how was it possible that he
answered (ibid 2) "Take off your golden earings"
ecc. And after he saw that they very quickly took off
and gave him the gold, how did he not understand that it was all from the Yetzer ha-Ra? And if so, how (4) 'did he take it from them inscribing
it with a cutting knife and made it into the form of a calf'? The verse
continues: 'and they said (ibid 5), "These are your God (elohecha - plural) who brought (plural) you up from the
land of Egypt". And yet, still after all this, 'and Aaron called out and
said "Tomorrow is a festival to God". Is there any clear
understanding here! And then afterwards (ibid 25) 'And Moses saw that the people
was parua (savage, wild, same letters as Pharaoh) and
that Aaron had made them parua (same letters as
Pharaoh) as a blemish in the hands of its enemies'. What does this mean?
From beginning to end the mater
of the Golden Calf the Torah reveals a tefach and
hides 9 tefachim. There are also 2 verse
that speak in poetic fashion which is strange concerning such an adverse
turning point in Israel's history. In coming down from Mount Sinai, in meeting
with Yeshua bin Nune, Moses
says, "Not the voice that answers ('anot) to
power (victory) and it's not the voice that answers ('anot)
to weakness (in battle). It is the voice of 'affliction' ('anot)
that I hear". Why should such a grave matter receive a poetic (melitza) form?
The second verse is 'And Moses
saw that the people was parua (savage, wild, same
letters as Pharaoh) and that Aaron had made them parua
(same letters as Pharaoh) as a blemish in the hands of its enemies'. And why
did the Torah choose to use the root peh-resh-'ain
twice so that we need to interpret it. And why in the written form is it Pharoah (ending in hei) and in
the read form pharow (ending in vav)?
Step 9 - Let's begin from the end.
The word Pharoah helps us briefly to get to the
central point in a relatively quick way. There's no doubt that the Torah is
alluding here to Pharaoh, king of Egypt, in order to see the sin of the Calf is
related to the idolatry made to Pharaoh.
The matters are connected since
the sin of Calf was committed first and foremost by the mixed-multitude. That
fall was bound to those who had not yet purify themselves from Egyptian
idolatry a part of which included Pharaoh's divinity.
Pharaoh is thus the Key to
understanding the Golden-Calf fromwhich we'll better
understand the mistake of Aaron and from his mistake we can know the Torah's
prophetic intention concerning Ahhrit ha-Yamim.
Before taking up the matter of
Pharaoh, there are certain generalities ti
understood. The essence is that Aaron didn't understand the idolatrous
intentions of the mixed-multitude, not that the essential factor was his fear.
Had he known that it was idolatry, he would absolutely not have built an altar
for it and announce, "Tomorrow is a festival to God" ".
We are thus constricted to say
that until the end Aaron was not convinced that the Calf, the altar and the
festival could not have used as vessels in the service to God.
This doesn't exclude a certain
fear on Aaron's part that they kill him, as they did Hhor
and cause terrible wrath of God on the whole nation.
Our explanation also doesn't
exclude Aaron's failed 'strategies' in order to give time for Moses to return,
as maintained by Rashi, peace be with him. But these
reasons of fear and strategies do not answer to the essential point that Aaron
himself announced "Tomorrow is Festival to God".
For sure, it's very difficult to
know what Aaron was thinking in that moment with the confusion around him and
the Yetzer ha-Ra working fulltime on the mixed-multitude
showing them visions of darkness and mixed light and an image that appeared to
them as the coffin of Moses in his return to the Heavens.
This, however, does not answer to
the issue of his strategies not working. Aaron, later to become High Priest of Israel,
most certainly did not sin iin any way in his
intentions to God Almighty.
So too,
until the end when Aaron said, "Tomorrow is a Festival to God" and
early in the morn they awoke and did all kinds of idolatrous cults around the
Calf. Only then did Aaron see their idolatrous behavior and
perceived the great sin that had come out even out of his own
non-understanding.
This explanation is reinforced by
Aaron's words to Moses (ibid. 21). 'and Aaron said, "Let
not the wrath of Adoni be kindled, you know this
people and the evil in it. Aaron's justification comes in answer to Moses'
question (ibid. 21) 'and Moses said to Aaron, "What did this people do to
you that you have brought it to such a great sin?"
From Moses' words there's no doubt
there he didn't consider it Aaron's sin but rather that of the mixed-multitude
while at the same time there is also no doubt that there was here a great sin
that came through Aaron.
Obviously, Moses tried in that
moment to seek out Aaron's justification and to save him since Moses and Aaron
were the two most responsible for the nation. The justification came in Aaron's
answer, it is you Moses who knows the evil hearts of these mixed-multitude and
their internal desire to practice idolatry; it not my fault. This was a
truthful justification. Aaron was simple and perfect in his faith and in his
simplified faith he had said, "It's a Festival to God tomorrow".
Aaron did not believe that after
witnessing the miracles in Egypt, the spitting of the sea and hearing the Ten
Commandments that the mixed-multitude would become so unstable and confused
about Moses who had not yet returned that they would want properly another god
to go before them
And in truth the mixed-multitude
did not speak of exchanging God for another god; their intention was to
exchange Moses (ibid. 1) and the people saw that Moses was late in descending
from the mountain; and they congregated the whole people around Aaron and they
said to him, "Arise, make for us a 'god' that walk before us, because this
man Moses, we do not know what has happened to him.
They didn't speak of any doubt in
God's existence but they doubted Moses' still being alive especially after
Satan show them the image of his coffin; it's important to understand their
mistake for from it we'll see the idolatrous thought inside them. Moses, our Elohim, is no longer here and now stand
up and make us another Elohim in his place.
The term 'elohim'
was not taken by Aaron to mean God Almighty but as a high authority or power
over, as the verse (ibid. 4, 16) 'and he shall to you as a mouth and you shall
be to him elohim'.
Thus the Hacham
Yehuda ha-Levi, in the Cuzari,
add's his understanding of Aaron's justification
explaining that according to the mentality in those times, a calf and its altar
could to serve as a sort of tabernacle to God's presence.
It seems that to me that the two
interpretations, of 'fear' and of 'strategies', have in common, as well as the
view that it's like a temple, is the Sages, of blessed memory, is of the
obligation to assure Aaron's innocence from idolatry and since a part of the
reasons are justifiable, they were justly emphasized.
Our obligation is to speak in the
New Sanctity of the Final Redemption and to understand the very sin of the
Golden Calf in order to know and understand the great error of Aaron and his justification, We are obligated to interpret the Calf in its
connection to the Golden-Calf of this final Fourth Generation. Aaron was
responsible for the whole nation, especially in Moses' absence, and a great sin
happened and this alludes to the sin of the End Time, a time when a terrible
idolatrous sin has gone unseen by the eyes of the Sages, its roots being in the
doctrine of Atzilut of the Zohar
followed by a plethora of Kabbalists and a thousand
books. All that is attributed to a world above creation in emanated Sefirot and Partzufim, levels and
categories are 'other gods on My face', other gods
that don't exist if not in prohibited idolatrous thoughts and associations, in
a multiplicity of 'reigns'. And all this while Aaron did not recognize the
idolatry into which they had fallen until the very end.
Also the conditions of this
Fourth Generation allow place for the development of the sin until its
completion, as (Gen. 15, 16) 'for the sin of the Emorei
is not complete until now.
Step 10 – The Golden Calf was the
result of the mistaken belief of the mixed-multitude bound to their previous
thoughts in serving Pharaoh. Aaron didn't understand those idolatrous
intentions.
Moshe Rabbeino,
peace be upon him, understood the evil of their intentions. Moses knew all the
idolatrous cults, magic and star-worship of Hhartumei
Mitzraim for he had learned them in Pharaoh's Court.
Another important factor is that when Moses
saw the Calf he threw down and broke the Tablets written by the hand of God. This
indicates that Moses' action of breaking the Tablets is directly connected to
the Correction of the sin of the idolatrous Calf; by knowing the root-sin of
the Calf, the reason for breaking the Tablets will become understood. That was
an extraordinarily terrible moment in Israel's history and it was Moshe Rabbeinu himself who broke those holy Tablets and every
action of Moses was a sign for the End Times. In order to break the roots of
the Golden Calf Moses had to break those Tablets.
The essential elements in
explaining the Golden Calf are:
The intention of the
mixed-multitude
Aaron's
not understanding their intentions
The difference
between the simple-faith of Aaron and the knowledge of Moses.
The Correction of the sin at
Moses' hands in breaking the Tablets.
The
comparison of the sin of the Calf to the service to Pharaoh.
In order to understand the
idolatrous intentions of the mixed-multitude, one must look at 3 matters.
Their
turning to Aaron, "Arise, make for us" ecc. "for this man Moses ecc.
The binding point between the
breaking of the Tablets and the sin of the Calf
The
essence of the idolatrous service to Pharaoh.
Thus the category of service to
Pharaoh is the Key to understanding the sin of the Calf; it's as if the Torah
had said 'it's hard to understand the roots of the Calf and to know where it
begins; behold Aaron himself didn't understand and so great was that sin that
Moses had to break the marvelous Tablets for the Correction of the Calf. It's
thus not a simple matter but complicated thoughts in the mixed-multitude in
their 'service' to Pharaoh.
In the eyes of the mixed-multitude
Moses was as Pharaoh, King of Egypt. It's important to know that in the
theological doctrine of Hhartumai Mitzraim
there were 10 great gods that were considered the 'mothers' and 'fathers' of
all the other lesser gods. 9 of those gods were 'fixed' in time but Pharaoh
himself was the tenth god. In the Message of the Archangel Gabriel it's
explained that Pharaoh was bound to the god 'Horus' who is the god of the Nile.
Pharaoh was the god of the Kingdom who rules over Egypt. Pharaoh thus belongs
to the Kingdom and he received his divinity from Horus who received his
divinity from the higher gods.
This was a fixed belief in the
mouth and heart of Egypt. Pharaoh was the god of the Kingdom, son of 9 higher
gods from heaven and the first to all the gods of the other nations. He is
called first-born to the gods of the nations and the particular son to the
higher gods. Thus he was responsible for sustenance in the world more than the
heavenly gods who saw to more generalized matters. And since Pharaoh was
responsible for their sustenance, serving him was, in their eyes, for their own
benefit.
Pharaoh was considered son to the
higher god 'shemesh' (sun) and to the deity of the
moon, in their hieroglyphic forms: the Nile flowed between the arms of 'Sun'
and the arms of 'Moon', and, according to them water was from the seed of the
sun and of moon and from that seed Pharaoh was born.
It's unnecessary to know the
various functions of those Ten gods but the number 10
is very important, hidden, for example, in the history of the Ten Plagues in
Egypt, and the Ten Commandments (see Petal 7, Message of the Archangel Gabriel,
on the Ten Plagues against the 10 gods of Egypt).
It's known that the 10 Plagues
were against the idolatrous cults in Egypt, especially the 10 Greater gods, as
mentioned, and that the tenth plague of killing the first-born would touch
Pharaoh himself, the tenth god.
In the
force of those plagues, Israel merited to receive the Ten Commandments, the
first 2 directly and the other 8 through the mouth of Moses. They
would have received the First Tablets had they not sinned with the Calf.
The Italians have an expression 'morto un Papa, si
mette un altro' 'When one
Pope dies, you establish another'. So too in Egypt (and in
all monarchies). Even if Pharoah is the god of
the land, he also has a physical body that eventually dies. Thus when a Pharaoh
died they rushed as quick as possible to put up
another so as not to lose time between where is missing the god who blesses the
earth and the Nile. Pharaoh in their eyes was 'the god walked before them' and
who blessed the Nile; for the Nile was bound to Horus who was born from the
union of Osiris and Isis. For this reason Pharaoh was obligated to enter the
waters of the Nile every morning before dawn.
It's important to understand that
the Calf, in the mind of the mixed-multitude, was to substitute Moses quickly
since he was their God-Link to the Higher God above. This is rendered clear by
the verse itself that they considered Moses as they considered Pharaoh, 'Arise
and make us a God who will walk before us because Moses the man who brought us
up from the land of Egypt, we know not what has become of him'.
In their inner thought Moses was a god, son of
the higher God who went before them in the world and brings upon then good
things. If he dies one must immediately choose another 'god' in his place in
order to fulfill the vacancy. This was the reason for their unrelenting
rapidity in getting the Calf made.
Aaron, however, didn't understand
the Egyptian thought that Moses was as Pharaoh in their eyes. Aaron thought
that they wanted a 'vessel' for God's Presence to acquiesce their perturbation
in Moses' absence. In this he tried to justify them and save them from sin.
Since Aaron didn't know this
point of their considering Moses as Pharaoh, the verse comes in an allusion to
it, 'and Moses saw that the nation was parua (wild) and
Aaron had rendered them as Pharaoh to be a desecration in the hands of their
enemies'. This means that Moses saw that the people was wild and worthy of
punishment because of their belief in Pharaoh and this lack of understanding of
their idolatrous thought gave them the possibility of returning to their
Pharaoh idea and of falling into idolatry.
We must yet persevere and ask
what exactly is the evil in the thought of the mixed-multitude concerning
Moses? It's not that they considered Moshe to be Pharaoh but their thought
towards Moses was in its way similar to their thought as Egyptians to Pharaoh.
To understand this we must make a general statement regarding the idolatry of
the Egyptians.
Step 11 – the line of 'binding'
between the Egyptian ideas and establishing the orders of their gods is the consept of 'Emanation'.
In ancient times before the
exodus from Egypt, among the complicated doctrines of the Egyptians and Babylonians,
the idea prevailed that the Highest First God in the beginning of His making
the worlds below Him 'emanated' the higher gods. In the power of the higher
gods emanated from the Highest God were created all the other things over
nature and of mankind (nevertheless, the term Emanation was not used and other
terms such as 'created' or 'formed' the other gods below were used since the
term emanated didn't exist, The concept of emanation of the Zohar
is the root of all idolatry in whuch there found a
multiplicity of gods. If you look with accuracy, however, the godliness of the
other gods from the Highest god is not a question of
'creation' or 'formation' or making but the Higher god gives over from his
divinity in a way of emanation. In this way divinity gives power from the Highest god to the emanated gods to create to form and to do
(see Milhhamot ha-Shem against the Zohar).
To Adam, according to them, was
given the first form of the creations, a form 'close' to God as well as the
first to receive His wrath. Afterwards the Hhartumei Mitzraim established at Heliopolis that Pharaoh is the
Tenth god and he is lowest form of god and the first form to other people.
Since Pharaoh in their eyes was
the tenth god of the 10 emanated deities, his body received the form of a human
being in the world while outside of his body he was an emanated god as the
other nine emanated gods.
This was the thought of the
mixed-multitude towards Moses considering him an emanation of God and the most
essential root in their sin is 'emanation' (Atzilut).
This comes to the forefront in Habad's considering
their Rebbe the receiver of the divine emanation, may
God save us and destroy such negation from our people Israel forever.
As said, the essential mistake of
Aaron was in not understanding was Moses represented in the minds of the
mixed-multitude 'an emanated god from the Higher God'. And when they thought
that Moses had returned to his Emanator they were
afraid that their emanated god needed immediately be replaced, as was the case
when a Pharaoh died.
This is the beginning of the sin
rooted in the Egyptian doctrines still encrusted inside the hearts of the
mixed-multitude. Since this matter is profound and complicated, the Torah comes
in allusion [that Aaron had rendered them parua (as Pharoh), as an accusation in the hands of their enemies. To
understand this we must bind the idolatrous sin of the Calf to the idolatry in
serving Pharaoh.
In any case we would still be
confused by that allusion by itself and we wouldn't understand what manner of
idolatry to Pharaoh was the root-evil that caused such a terrible error and the
historical accusation in the hands of Israel's enemies. What we understand
until now is the false premises that they considered Moses as Pharaoh, emanated
from the Higher Emanator.
This is also the meaning of 'this
man Moses we know what has become of him'. The concept of the word 'ish' (man) in the mouth of the mixed-multitude was similar
to the Torah's use of this word as an 'angel' (especially the Archangel
Gabriel) as with Joseph (Gen. 37,15) 'and a man (ish)
found him and the man asked him, saying, "What are you looking for?".
It's known that for some purpose that has to be accomplished in the world an
angel sometimes comes in the form of a man. That body is nullified when the
mission is finished and the angel arises to his true being. The highest
category of the angels above is called 'ishim' (see Rambam, Mishneh Torah, sefer ha-mad'a, hilchot deiot.
This is 'for this Moses the man'
an expression here given in an almost shameful way but the intention is not to
shame Moses as Moses according to them was the 'ish'
who at the end of his mission he is no longer in the world believing that the
Emanated Moses had arisen to God his Emanator.
Step 12 – A clearer understanding
concerning the idolatry to Pharoah being in its
source Emanatistic in relation to the 10 greater gods
established by the Hartumei Mitzraim,
is found between the breaking of the Tablets of the 10 commandments and the sin
of the Calf the source of which is the belief in Divine Emanation.
The breaking of the Tablets is
bound to the Egyptian faith in the 10 emanated gods and thus the doctrine of
Emanation in relation to the Golden Calf is bound to the idolatry to the
emanated Pharaoh. This is needed to better understand the prophetic Sin of the
End Time, the sin of the 10 emanated godheads of Zohar
and all that followed in its wake.
This is essential: the breaking
of the Tablets of the 10 Commandments was properly the correction of the sin of
the mixed-multitude of the 10 great emanated gods of Egypt, The 10 commandments
themselves were bound to the victory of God's wars against the 10 emanated gods
of Egypt and the 10 plagues corresponded to this.
When the mixed-multitude, in
their inner idolatrous belief in emanation, didn't see Moses and thought he was
no longer in this world were afraid and erred returning to their previous ideas
revealing their internal emanation belief. In this they corrupted the nation
which no longer merited to receive the first Tablets.
Moshe Rabbeinu,
peace be upon him, knew the source of their sin and that they had returned to
the 10 emanated gods, Therefore he had to break the Tablets of the 10 commandments
since the number 10 related to the 10 great generalities of the Torah was also
bound to their 10 gods that Ha-Shem, Blessed is He, had destroyed in Egypt in
the 10 plagues, in the wars of God against those 10 gods with Pharaoh being the
tenth god in whom all was expressed (since he was the god of the Kingdom who
received his power from the higher 9 gods). This was their 'knowledge', as
explained, in the forms of godly emanations that brought upon them great fear
in the lack of the tenth god.
Why was Moses not able to speak
to them and to explain their mistake or even to punish them and kill them,
without breaking the Tablets? The main reason is that the Tablets themselves
and the commandments in God's writing was extremely holy and powerful, for God
Himself, His name be praised forever, inscribed them on the Tablets. For this
reason, in his knowledge of their great sanctity and the marvelous level of
those Tablets, if the sin had not been cut down from the source of emanation of
the 10 Egyptian gods, that same faith would have been the cause of their making
the 10 Tablets idolatrous, as to the tenth god, serving the Tablets themselves
as idolatrous gods.
He had to break the Tablets with
the 10 commandments so that they know and see that these are not 'God' but that
they were given as a great and immense gift from God, with the purpose of using
them before God in true simple faith, not in an Egyptian context and the
complications of their erroneous Egyptian emanation faith.
Step 13 – there was nothing else
as close to God as the Tablets to be considered 'emanated'. Therefore Moses
broke them in order to eradicate 'emanation' from its roots (that action became
fixed against Atzilut ha-Elohut
and its being fixed assured that in the end it would eradicated
from the world). We explained the Kabbala of Yehoshua bin Nune in relation to
the Second Commandment and that the doctrine of emanation was the Sin of
Fathers; for there are levels in idolatry: fathers, sons, third and fourth generation
to those who hate Me'. And not more. Only until the
fourth generation and in the fourth generation is their idolatrous sin
completed. Then wrath descends from EL KANA, jealous in the truth of His name,
praised be His name forever. Thus the root of the idolatrous concept of
Emanation is the Sin of Fathers, the most subtle sin and 'refined' and even
logical (as explained for the generation of Enosh).
The doctrine of the emanation of
gods from the 'higher emanator' in the mentality of
the mixed-multitude was not understood by Aaron at that time; therefore he
erred in thinking that a different manner could also be used in serving
Ha-Shem, without thinking that they had deviated from the faith itself. Aaron
relied in this on the faith they had witnessed in the miracles in Egypt, from
the splitting of Yam Suf and from Sinai. Aaron from
his nature was very tamim with God and he didn't
delve into philosophic wisdom concerning the faith!
Not so Moshe Rabbeino
who was expert in their ideas, wisdom and faith. He knew that if he would not
break the Tablets of the 10 commandments before the people he wouldn't be able
in any other way to eradicate in them the forms of 10 emanated divinities and
to change their thoughts that bring false ideas concerning Ha-Shem instead of
knowing that no human reasoning can understand God and that one had to be tamim with the Lord, our God. The temimut
is the quality loved by Him Blessed is He forever.
The actions of Moses, peace be
with him, continue until the end of the generations, as the Torah itself;
therefore the sin of the end time, the Hherem Mi-Deoraita explained in this text and all idolatry are part
of the Torah included also in the sin of having eaten from the Tree of
knowledge of Good and Evil.
The sin of Emanation is the first
and most general of all idolatry since in it the Satan convinced Eva, our first
mother, that by eating of it her eyes would be opened and she would know
everything as God. In that moment Eva desired to be as God who knows good and
evil. There is, however, the plural (Gen, 3,5 - yodei tov va-ra)
'who know' good and evil'. This means there is God and if there become more
gods, together they know good and evil. This is the highest form of idolatry
to become as God and this is the idolatrous root of Emanation of the book of
the Zohar and it's also the idolatrous root of the
Christian Trinity and of most of the Asiatic religions that are based on the
faith of God's emanations the intention being to become a 'small God' who knows
the knowledge of the universe.
Moses' action in breaking the
Tablets is eternal in as much as it annuls in the end the erroneous idolatry
from its root (avon avot): emanated gods and emanated aspects (partufim) and emanated Sefirot
etc.
The Golden Calf, unfortunately,
is a prophetic sign for Israel and received by us in the dream of the Goel Hain descending from the
mountain to burn the new Golden Calf that impedes the residing of the Final
Redemption. This final breaking will complete the historic forever.
Step 14 – This evil has returned
to Judaism and is totally invalid in 'a multitude of reigns' (ribui reshaot), in 'divine
association' (shituf) and in 'other gods on My countenance' (Elohim ahherim al panai. The Sages of blessed
mentioning, nevertheless, didn't understand it because they were (Haazinu 32, 17) new gods in the 12 century in emanation
terminology unknown to the Hachamim
(Genesis, 3: 6) 'and the woman saw that the tree
was good for eating, and that it was pleasurable to the eyes, and that the tree
was enjoyable to the intellect, and took of its fruit and she ate, and she gave
also to her husband with her and he ate'.
As in the generation of Enosh when they placed the name EL (God) on the stars, so
it is the sin of emanation placing God's holy names on emanated Sefirot since they are closer to us but we cannot have
contact above them. And in the generation of Enosh
they said that God was too far them but He had not left them and gave the
people to be under His Ministering Stars.
And in the generation of the Zohar Tower they built an odious building of Four Worlds
that exist only in their imaginations. And its head reaches the heavens for
them is the World of Emanation.
The Rabbis who fell into this
error didn't search out its origins and they relied on falsehoods and were
felicitous in those lies, notwithstanding their great wisdom and knowledge in
the Torah and all their precisions in Halacha and
fulfillment of Mitzvot. Yet here they fell terribly
without knowing it, and they allowed what was absolutely forbidden!
Step 15 – It is still unknown to
the Jewish people and the rabbis and scholars haven't searched into the sources
of this doctrine and into the idolatry it teaches. This is alluded to in the
fact that the High Priest Aaron himself didn't know the idolatrous thoughts of
the mixed-multitude and he thought that it was possible to insert their ideas in
the service to God and declared, "A Feast to God tomorrow".
Step 16 – This Hherem (excommunication) is MiDeoraita
is from the Torah. This means that it was already provided by the Torah that at
the End Time the Torah will need in all its strength to curse, destroy, annul
and excommunicate the terrible idolatrous sin of 'other gods on My countenance'
which will be prevalent at that time.
Unfortunately that sin has be
completed, as in the Tower, (Gen. 11,6) 'let there not
be missing from them all that they had planned to do'. The beginning thought
comes out in the final action. This refers to this final Fourth Generation in
which the sin of Emanation will be completed (in general the periods of Spain,
of Tzephat, of Poland and Russia, in the expansion of
Hassidism, and Habad is the last manifestation,
together with the Kabbala School of R. Ashlag and his commentary on the Zohar
–Il Sulam (the Ladder) in Jerusalem and Bnei Brak (Habad
is the historical end of the Fourth Generation and doubled with School of R. Ashlag. Thus the 'city' will be revealed, and their Tower
will be seen in the world, the false messianic movement of the Shneerson cult and the millions of Zohars
sold by the Ashlagim all over the world through
Internet.
Step 17 – (Ex. 32, 1) 'and the
nation saw that Moses tarried in descending from the mountain; and the nation
gathered against Aaron'. The simple prophetic meaning: about 400 years before
the Shoah, the rabbis at that time were impatient in
waiting for the Geula Shleima
and they wanted to speed up the End Time. So too the mixed-multitude in that
time were afraid not to have a 'divine' intermediary in place of Moshe who
would lead them directly to the Final Redemption as Moses had redeemed until
then. This distorted concept has gone on until the End Time of Habad, who with hutzpa, stupidity
and arrogance call out."We want the Mashiah now" with intention on their false Messiah and
all the Emanation-Kabbala wrapped into him in the Hassidut of Habad.
There are many allusions in the
word 'bosheh' but our purpose here is to bind the
prophecies hidden in the Torah to this present time, in the revelation of the
Completed Signs of the Final Redemption in merit of the chosen Goel Haim. Therefore we explain 'boshesh' relative to this.
The whole sin of the Calf alludes
to this monsterous Emanation sin of the End Time and to
the revelation of the Completed Signs.'Boshesh' also
means 'in it are six' referring to the Six Completed Signs.
Step 18 – Moseshe
Rabbeinu was on the mountain 40 and 40 nights and that
first ascent included everything. This means that if no sin had been made,
there would have been no need for another ascent and nothing of the Torah would
have been missing.
Moses had received God's name
EHEYE ASHER EHEYE. This holy name includes the 3 redemptions, the redemption from
Egypt, the redemption of Purim and the Final
Redemption. Clearly, Moshe, the Head of all the Prophets, learned directly from
Ha-Shem the Exiles and Redemptions of the future, and it[s known that he was
given to see prophetically all the generations of Israel.
This doesn't contradict the fact
that the redemption of Moses and the giving of the Torah until the Construction
of the First Temple were all under the first name 'EHEYE'. The second redemption
of Purim, in the hands of Mordechai and Esther were
under the second name 'ASHER'. And the Final Redemption is of the last name
'EHEYE' to redeem Israel and the world. Moses saw prophetically from the whole
name revealed to him all the generations.
It wasn't strange therefore, that
towards the end of the first 40 days and nights, Moses, peace be upon him, was
able to meditate on the Six Completed Signs of the Geula
Shleima. This is a very strong allusion hidden in the
Torah, in His treasures, as the extremely hidden allusion (Gen. 33,4) in the
Six Points over the word 'va-yishakehu' which is a
tradition from Sinai and which becomes known only with the coming of the final Goel.
One can surmise that the
futuristic vision came towards the end of the First Ascent when God showed him
also the future redemptions.
It's alluded to in 'bo-shesh' (This can also be read 'be-shesh'.
'Beit'=2 in Gematria. 'Shesh'=6 in Hebrew) - in the 6 hours of Moshe's tarrying
alluding to 'the two times of the Six Completed Signs' (12 years are needed to
complete the Sign, 6 years in the Signs of Yosef and
6 years in the Signs of David.
Step 19 – 'and the nation saw
that Moses tarried'. What did the people see? If they saw that Moses didn't
come, why do we need the 'boshesh' if not for
allusions? What did the mixed-multitude see that could allude
to the Final Redemption?
An introduction is needed
concerning the special relationship between Moses and the mixed-multitude for
which, as known, that Ha-Shem said to Moses 'your nation' and NOT 'My nation'.
The mixed-multitude truly desired
to follow the Hebrews and become part of the people for the sake of merit and
they clang to Moses and believed in his mission. Moses received them with great
joy without asking permission for this from Ha-Shem. He was convinced that it
was good in the eyes of God. Why had Ha-Shem demonstrated such great miracles
in Egypt if not for the sake that some of them might take fear and follow Him?
But the merit of Jacob was not in them and they were accepted in Moses' merit. Thus 'your nation'.
Therefore the mixed-multitude
believing that Moses had ascended to his Source and had then already reached
the great light of the GEULA SHLEIMA. This was, of course, not in their active
thought but they felt something of that splendor of the universal peace and the
marvels of the final redemption in those 6 hours that Moses tarried. In truth
Moses tarried because of that meditation, the beauty and the splendor of which made
him walk very slowly with the Tablets on his arms. But the Satan entered to
confuse them. From that elevated level of higher thoughts with love to Ha-Shem
and to Moses, came the Satan who showed a form of Moses' coffin in heaven and
they began to say, "Who now will be the godhead as Moses, (they returned
to their beliefs of the divine Pharaoh) because we know not what has become of
this man Moses. If such a divine mediator is missing there is no further
salvation or redemption. And he had to come quickly. Because of their
impatience could Satan interfere.
Step 20 - When they saw that image
of Moses' coffin, they no longer of him as a person (ben
adam) but rather as a man (ish). The previous true and inner love they had for Moses
changed into a thought for their own good, and in that moment that they saw no
advantage for themselves, he became as a man (ish) in
their eyes, in a cold relationship between them and him, not personal.
Then they went from bad to worse,
into the mysticism and doctrines of Hhartumei Mitzraim and they desired an ox saying that Joseph had
ruled over all Egypt and he was under the constellation of 'shor'.
Thus the bull was a sign of good luck and success for Israel. Hhor, Miriamm's husband, tried to
stop them but some of the mixed-multitude rose up against him and murdered him.
At that moment Aaron was fearful
of their sinning that would be a terrible damage for the whole nation so as a
strategy to have do something that took time, hoping that Moses would come in
the meantime. Satan's action caused them not to wait, men and women quickly
gave all the gold they had and gave it to Aaron. Aaron asked, "What should
I do with it"? They didn't know. Then the Satan showed them Micha who had been together with Moses in his taking up the
bones of Joseph from the Nile. Moses had a tray that Serah,
daughter of Asher, had transmitted to him for the sake of bringing up Joseph's
bones. On the tray was written 'and that shor shoud arise, let shor arise'.
Aaron then took the gold and
threw it into a furnace and the calf came out. The sin didn't come directly
from the hands of the mixed-multitude but from the hands of Aaron. This alludes
to the fact that the sin of Atzilut in the End Time
will be in hands of the rabbis, the hachamim and lomdei Torah, even temimim who
didn't and haven't yet understood the 'thoughts of the mixed-multitude', the
Emanation theology of the Zohar.
Then the mixed-multitude became
more confused and mentally changed God into other gods; they began to dance, to
laugh and to bring incense to the Golden Calf that stood and walked as a live
calf on the Altar that Aaron had made. In the midst of this, in futile calling
and in pious hope that has no substance, and quickly, in good faith Aaron decreed,
'hhag l'Adonai mahhar'.
The corresponding allusion is to
those who read in the Zohar and call it a 'Holy Book'.
In truth, it is as 'holy' as the Golden Calf in its time and must be burned. Those
who without understanding it haves been thrown back into Egyptian idolatry must
return to the pure faith because it's idolatrous and has no substance.
Step 21 – When the reader sees
the matters of these bonds he will see that the 'service' of the
mixed-multitude was essentially as their 'service' to Pharoah,
thus the expression in the Torah is 'ki ferao Aaron'[1]
(feraoh has the same letters as Pharaoh). Aaron's
error brought them back to a Pharaoh mentality and the service to Pharaoh was
bound up to the Ten gods of Egypt, 9 higher emanated
gods and Pharaoh the tenth emanated god. They became confused and Moses became
as Pharaoh for them. Moses then understood that if he had become for them an
emanated Godhead, what would the Tablets written by the hand of God become in
their eyes, emanated godliness that can be worshipped and he threw down and
smashed the Tablets for all of them to see.
Moshe knew their mentality and the
details of their idolatry and he understood in that moment that the root of
their Divine Emanation theology had to be broken. Therefore he smashed the
Tablets of God's Ten Commandments.
Until this very generation the Halacha has not clarified the prohibition of Emanation
Theology based on the false basis of Ten Emanated Sefirot,
And the Heads of the nation have not distinguished between the true Giver of
the Torah and between a 'contracted god', Zeir Anpin, son of the 2 preceding Divine Partzufim,
Aba and Ema. They engaged
in philosophical speculation and built a Large Palace on a false foundation and
followed a false tradition concerning the faith of the Tribes of Jacob, our
father.
Therefore, unfortunately, except
for a few hachmei ha-Torah such as El Gafeh, Rav Yehudah
Ari from Modena and some others, called out but they were not heard notwithstanding
their great knowledge in the Torah, and they must hear this true Halacha from the first Donkey of the Goel
Haim. Afterwards our Brays will be understood to the
coming generations.
What is stated in Numeri 11, 25, 'and he (Moses) emanated from his spirit
upon them' (the 70 Elders) has absolutely nothing to do with the Emanation of
their false Kabbala and especially to an Emanated
World above the World of Creation.
The World of Emanation is false
terminology. It's erroneous and causes others to err. It's prohibited to think
of such a concept and all that derives from this false foundation of a World of
Emanation that falsifies the true faith of the Torah.
The Holy Torah is based on
creation yesh mei-aiyen (from
non existence to existence by God's creating it). The concept that before the
creation yesh mei
aiyen the Emanater emanated
a World of Emanation is not of the Torah, Written or Oral and is an invented terminology.
Whoever wants to contrast this
with what is written in Talmud that Ha-Shem Baruch Hu
answered in a written form to the Sage's question, 'What did God do before He
created this world?: "Before this world I created worlds and destroyed
them, created worlds and destroyed them'. But this only accentuates the
question. The Sages, of blessed memory, needed to answer to the Greek
philosophers. It was the answer to those who questioned and negated God, the
Creator, saying to them that whoever wants to philosophy about worlds above the
Creation should know that all other worlds before this world have already been
created and destroyed and they exist no more. These words came to stop them
from inventing false doctrines and mystic Kabbalot.
Step 22 – All the so-called Kabbalists in their Atzilut
conception have exited from the straightforward measures in which every Jew
must believe, (Gen. 1,1) 'in the beginning God created
the heavens and the earth'. This is the true Kabbala from Moses, our teacher, nor should we occupy
ourselves with worlds above and before the Creation, as stated (Deut. 29, 28)
'For the hidden things are to the Lord, our God, and the revealed things are
for us and for our children forever'. And it states (ibid 18, 13) 'Be tamim (of a simple, pure faith) with the Lord, your God'.
This verse gives over a TREMENDOUSLY important commandment to just ones of the
Torah and a tremendously strong warning to hachamei
ha-torah who foolishly imagine that the 'wisdom of Atzilut
are 'the hidden things' of the verse. Oiy gevolt! This idea itself is negating the command of the
Torah! If the Higher Worlds of Emanation are the 'hidden things' of the verse,
you are completely negating what the Torah is decreeing. The hidden things are
to God and the revealed things are for us.
Step 23 – Can the human intellect
of any person understand the creation of the heavens and the earth ex nihilo!
How much more is it impossible to draw conclusions about what is before the yesh me aiyen!
And they it
the Wisdom of Atzilut (Hochmat
ha Atzilut) building it around words of Torah! This the sitra ahhra
the 'other side' of the Torah. They fell into this trap in their confusion and
imagined 10 Sefirot of Kedusha
and 10 Sefirot of the 'sitra
ahhra' as if studying the Tree of Knowledge of good
and evil. They say that these explain what are the good things and what are the
bad things but they forgot to explain in this matter what is good and what is
bad.
They say that whatever is in the
Torah is the Side of the Kedusha and whatever is
outside is the Side of the Sitra Ahhra
and since they study Torah and perform mitzvot they
believe themselves exempt from the Sitra Ahhra. The matter is different, however! The 'Other Side'
of the Torah is that which is outside of the 70 Ways of true Torah
Interpretation, thus explaining the Torah with a false foundation that doesn't
correspond to the true and unique monotheistic faith of the Torah and
Tradition.
The greatest example of this is
what Christianity has done with the Torah, with 2000 years of the false
interpretation of the deification of Christ. They falsify the entire Torah in
the name of the Trinity. Such is the Sitra Ahhra, bringing the true Sanctity of the Torah into the
realm of a false theology!
Step 24 – How much more terrible
and potent is the 'Other Side' of a false Theology when it comes from Jews
commanded in the Sanctity of the Torah. It states (Kohelet
7, 14) 'This against this has God made it' (the Sitra
d'Kedusha against the Sitra
Ahhra). All interpretations based on a false
Foundation of such a 'Torah' is of the Sitra Ahhra and equal in severity to purposely spilling seed or indulging
in the prohibited fornications.
When Jews hear Christians
interpreting the Torah according to their belief in the Trinity, this makes
them angry and insulted for such an abasement of the true Torah, hhass ve-hhalila. But if they
hear, let's say Buddhists, who praise their 'emanated Budda'
etc. no Jew gets very angry. The Buddhists are far, far away from The Tradition
of the Torah, the Patriarchs, the Revelation at Sinai
etc. Thus their explanations do not 'shame' the Torah directly but are foolish,
idolatrous abominations on their own right.
Therefore whoever knows that the
doctrine of Atzilut is invalid and is against our
true faith and our true heredity of the Torah, against the Torah of Moses, our
teacher, against the Oral Tradition, then will it be well understood that there
is nothing more 'shameful' to the true Tradition of the Holy Torah than this. Many
Jews who try to go in the way of mitzvot came to
error because they had no clear, Halachic definition
of the idolatrous doctrine of Emanation. This is shameful and it touches the
heart of Israel, the faith that we received in heredity from Abraham, our
father, peace be upon him.
Is there a greater shame than
speaking about Partzufim (god's Emanated Aspects)
before Creation, claiming that the Infinite One 'contracted' himself in
emanation after emanation until the most 'contracted' Emanation, the Zeir Anpin (our god, according to
them) (Exodus, 32: 25) 'And Moses saw the people that it was parua (letters Pharoah) for Aaron
had made the people vile (farao, letters of Pharaoh, as
explained,) in the disdain of their enemies'.
As Aaron in his time who allowed
them to continued, so too the Rabbis didn't know that they had to stand up
against a Doctrine of Emanation Theology. And Aaron's strategy failed and they
went deeper into their idolatrous thoughts with every minute that passed, for
he had given them occasion to become wildly enthusiastic (peruin)
in their thoughts as they had been in their previous idolatry to Pharoah.
Step 25 – Most certainly Aaron
was great in the eyes of God and loved for his love-filled qualities with all people,
His high level made the error that much more damaging with the fact that he was
in charge and responsible in that moment.
It's worthy to note that even the
mixed-multitude itself repented when Moses descended and broke the Tablets and
they knew they had committed an idolatrous abomination.
This great Correction is bound to
the breaking of the Tablets by Moses, magister noster,
and it returns for its finalization before the Geula Shleima, in merit of the final Goel,
in order to destroy forever the roots of the doctrine of the 10 Emanated Sefirot, may the Lord, our God, save us from it and purify
our livers and our heart.
Step 26 – From this Correction a
greater universal Correction will arrive into the world starting from
Christianity and extending to the far off nations and the truth will break down
the worlds of falsehoods in the end.
Step 27 – It's forbidden to think
about and certainly to speak and write about Five Partzufim
that were emanated before the Creation of the world. All thoughts of Emanated Partzufim or Emanated Sefirot are
strictly prohibited and any spoken words about them allow for a ' multitude of
reigns' and for an 'associated faith' and 'other gods' all in a false
theological context.
Step 28 – The Torah commanded 'Be
tamim with the Lord, your God'. We must be 'simple'
in our faith' – In essence, the children of Israel are 'believers, children of
believers' and have no such pretensions to believe in Higher Worlds above
Creation. Someone who is tamim in his or her faith
does not think about such things by nature and is afraid of approaching God
with such thoughts. The Goel Haim
teaches us to be tamim in our faith and never to
enter into mystical doctrines. Even while it's permitted us to meditate on the
Stars of the Redemption and the New Mazalot of Big
Fish Leviathan and the New Messages of the Final Redemption for these are of
Creation and not ABOVE creation.
It's prohibited to believe that
the Infinite God contracted Himself in order to emanate worlds until the
emanated Higher Man of the world of Atzilut god in
his emanated form with 248 limbs and 365 arteries above creation. What
righteous Jew or what simple Jew might by nature think such things!
God, Blessed
is He and Blessed is His name forever is One in an absolute Oneness. As it is
prohibited to speak of a multiplicity of reigns so is it prohibited to speak of
5 Emanated Partzufim or 10 Emanated Sefirot before God's creating the heavens and the earth.
In spite of all Aaron did not see
idolatry in the words of the mixed-multitude and in their intensions and he had
constructed an altar and called out, "A celebration to God tomorrow".
This word of Aaron is very difficult but if it had not been said we wouldn't
have understood how much Aaron intension was le-shem shamaim, for the sake of Heaven. The word is difficult because of its mixing the name of God to a
grave sin nor did the mixed-multitude refuse his word but arose the next
morning, ate and drank and danced and made a cult to the Golden Calf.
This error in God's name created
enemies among the nations in all Israel's history but its roots in the Zohar issued among Jews because Emanation Theology had not
yet been understood and clearly defined and it had to be corrected for the rest
of history.
Step 29 – One must take
cognizance first of all that there is here an immense study from the sin of the
Golden Calf brought on by Aaron the Priest. Not in vain the Torah elucidates us
with these very difficult details that furnish us with an understanding for the
continuation of our history, especially for the Last Days and the Sin of the
end time.
Aaron was loved by God and was
holy in all his service. He properly fell because he didn't perceive of until
the end the idolatrous intensions of the mixed-multitude.
What is the great study? Do not
say that Tzadikim, great Scholars, Sages and those
who fear God (such as Moshe Kordevero, Rav Yitzhhak Luria, the Magid of Mezerich and even the Gaon of Vilna or the Malbim could
have fallen into such an error. If Aaron erred, certainly all the other rabbis
not on the holy level of Aaron could have erred.
This is the Law to be taught. The
Rabbis who lived in the last 4 centuries who didn't speak up against the Zohar and relied on their reception from others are as
Aaron in the Last Days. Many have erred in this sin of the Last Days and didn't
have the force to search it out, to know and understand it.
Step 30 – Not withstanding all
this, the Jewish people will be purified in the end and no longer will there be
books of the Zohar and of all the false Kabbalah and of Hassidut etc. and
all Israel will breathe clean and uncontaminated air and will feel the
reciprocal love deriving from their love to God Almighty. All Israel will be tamim with the Lord, their God, and will love Him and go in
His ways. They will understand the marvels of the world He created and they
will not seek 'hidden things' that human perception cannot reach. They will
arise from level to level, happy in their portion and not look for matters
greater than their own capacity to perceive, and they will be humble and not
look down on others and, on the contrary, each one will feel him or herself
smaller than anyone else, and all will behave with derech
eretz. Then Ha-Shem, Blessed is He, will forgive His
people, Israel, from the sin of the Golden Calf from the first one to the last
one and all Israel will understand. Amen and so may it be.
Thanks to EL SHADDAI, EL SHADDAI

[1] Farao is verbal but there is no proper pshat (simple translative meaning) and can only be interpreted as an allusion. There's a relationship between what Aaron did and the Pharaoh theology to which they receded.
