Chapters 104-112: Summary
Jacob's Pillar OPENING DOORS Ayin Beis Volume 1, Discourse 28, Vayishlach Yaakov 5673, Chapter 112 p. 216-218 Short Summary: Long Summary: Large dalet is also door and opening. Gates in temple that had doors and were at times closed and at time open depending on human actions. Opening of the hall was always open. signifying the divine infinite energy that is not concealed and blocked by the curtians and doors. Malchut is the door -- the portal between the divine higher unity of atzilus and the lower created worls of biy"a. The lower level of malchut is the doors that at times are closed, regulating the progressive flow (like the curtains that conceal). The large dalet is the hifgher level of malchus, which is the open door of the hall, however we can say that in the defined structure it channels the energy from the open passage. Laban wanted to block the flow with his mound, Jacob built the pillar to draw down the energy of atzilut into malchut and lift it up from being a mere point to being a structure (partzuf), and thus transmit the divine energy into biy"a. After Jacob finished his refinement work with Laban's sheep, he them is ready to return and refine Esau. He thus sends messengers to notify Esau that "I lived with Laban" and kept the 613 (garti/taryag) mitzvot. I refined Laban, keser, chochma binah of kelipah. I am thus now ready to refine you, Esau, z"a of kelipah. (Though it says elsewhere that the refinement of kacha"b will be in the future, follong the refinenement of z"a today, that is from the bottom up. But Jacob refined these levels from the top down).
Jacob's Pillar MALCHUS RISING Ayin Beis Volume 1, Discourse 28, Vayishlach Yaakov 5673, Chapter 111 p. 216 Short Summary: Long Summary: Jacob, however, elevated malchus to its state as it is higher than its manifestation in biy"a. Explanation: There are two levels in malchus: 1) As it carries the divine force of creation that manifests in the lower worlds of biy"a. 2) As it stands in it own core state, above that manifestation. As it is in kingship below: A king as he relates to his nation, governs them and issues decrees is only a reflection of the king himself who remains above and beyond his subjects. Same with kingship above: Shema and Boruch Shem. Large dalet. higher unity and lower unity. Speech and power of speech, mature speech. Raw sounds and spirit of the words.
Jacob's Pillar ROSE AMONG THORNS Ayin Beis Volume 1, Discourse 28, Vayishlach Yaakov 5673, Chapter 110 p. 213-214 Short Summary: Long Summary: The point (nekudah) of malchus as it descends in biy"a, which on its own is concealed until its is raised and built up (the stone that Jacob then turned into a pillar) -- in human service (avodah) -- can be explained in several ways: 1) The spark of faith in every heart and soul, which compels a person to impose himself on the animal soul and simply force himself to act accordingly, even if he has no deeper intention and feelings. The raising of malchus (acheives through Jacob turning the stone into a pillar) is the work we do in braodenging our minds in serving the divine. 2) The divine awakening power from above which helps the divine soul free itself from the clutches of the animal soul, which are the thorns of materialism -- all our materiasl concerns that conceal the rose, the inner divine desire of the soul to connect to the sublime.
