\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The fact that these vessels <\/strong>of Nikkudim<\/em> or \u201dgarments\u201d<\/strong>, i.e., the worlds of Briah<\/em>, Yetzirah<\/em>, and Assiyah<\/em>, should be the root of wrong isn\u2019t a flaw; on the contrary, it\u2019s the fulfillment of the underlying intention behind creation, which is the revelation of\u00a0 God\u2019s ultimate sovereignty. It\u2019s just that first there <\/strong>first needed to be a root of wrong<\/strong>, i.e., the vessels of Nikkudim<\/em>, which was truly wrongful, which was to revert to goodness through the repairs carried out by humankind. That itself will be for the glory of the King by means of which humans could earn merit.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 But in order to actually bring this about, these \u201cgarments\u201d had to provide a place for wrong to exist. That was accomplished by the selection and gradation that took place among them, until only the very last level of Malchut<\/em> of Assiyah<\/em> was left to produce wrong. <\/strong>The three worlds of Briah<\/em>, Yetzirah<\/em>, and Assiyah<\/em> will then become <\/strong>the four worlds of Atzilut<\/em>, Briah<\/em>, Yetzirah<\/em>, and Assiyah<\/em><\/strong>, that is, when Malchut<\/em> of Assiyah<\/em> becomes a new Assiyah<\/em>, Assiyah<\/em> becomes Yetzirah<\/em>, Yetzirah<\/em> becomes Briah<\/em>, and Briah<\/em> becomes Atzilut<\/em>. Wrong will then be rectified and revert to goodness, things will revert to what they\u2019d been at first, and there will no longer a need for wrong to exist in actuality, as it will enough for it to have once existed and to have then been rectified. This is the meaning of the verse, “He has consumed death forever” (Isaiah 25:8). <\/strong><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Then <\/strong>the new Atzilut<\/em>, Briah<\/em>, Yetzirah<\/em>, and Assiyah<\/em> will revert to Briah<\/em>, Yetzirah<\/em>, and Assiyah<\/em>, and the Malchut<\/em> of Assiyah<\/em> will become integrated with its whole<\/strong>, i.e., with the world of Yetzirah<\/em> that would then exist, and the <\/strong>original exalted Atzilut<\/em> of the general Nikkudim<\/em> <\/strong>that was removed in the course of the \u201cbreaking of the vessels\u201d will be revealed. The \u201cgarments\u201d will then remain the root of the wrong that once existed but was rectified and reverted to goodness. Ein<\/em> Sof<\/em> will then be said to have completed His task, and He will be exalted unto Himself in His sovereignty.<\/strong><\/p>\n
