812 Speaking of the unity, the “Sepher Yetzirah” says: “One is She, the Spirit of the Elohim of life (blessed and more than blessed be His name who is the life of ages), Voice, and Spirit, and Word—this is She, the Spirit of holiness.” 813 The word is OVTRA. Rosenroth translates it by “Aporrhea.” It may also be translated “vapor,” or “nebula.” 814 The ten numbers and twenty-two letters. 815 MZL = 40 x 7 x 30 = 77, which is OZ, Strength or Vigor. This Gematria is worthy of note as giving the idea of foundational power. _ 816 I.e._, the containing power. 817 Daath is the conjunction of Chokmah and Binah. (See “Book of Concealed Mystery,” chap. i. § 40.) 818 This is analogous to the teaching of the “Sepher Yetzirah,” that the Three Mothers, A, M, Sh, radiate into three paternal forms of the same. A, M, and Sh symbolize the potencies of Air, Water, and Fire. 819 For “commencement” denotes end, and end denotes “commencement”; how, then, in the Absolute can there be either? Nevertheless, in the Absolute must we seek for the hypothetical starting-point of life. 820 Let the student carefully note that this is the second Sephira, the I of IHVH, the Father proceeding from Macroprosopus, Kether, as He proceedeth from Ain Soph. 821 The Sephiroth, or numbers. 822 “Chokmoth” is plural of “Chokmah,” Wisdom. 823 Chokmah is the second and Binah is the third of the Sephiroth. This section is a sufficient condemnation of all those who wish to make out that woman is inferior to man. 824 This clause refers to the “Unwritten Qabalah.” 825 Chokmah, the second Sephira, which, however, is as it were the repetition of Kether. 826 That is, the letter I, Yod, in HIVH, which is said in the “Book of Concealed Mystery” to symbolize Macroprosopus only in its highest point. 827 See “Book of Concealed Mystery,” chap. ii. § 37; chap. iv. § 11. 828 See “Book of Concealed Mystery,” chap. ii. § 37. 829 The amount of occult symbolism in this section is enormous, and the key of it is the name of the letter I, which is IVD, Yod. This is a trinity of letters, and their numerical value is I = 10, V = 6, D = 4, total 20, equivalent to double I; but for reasons given in the “Book of Concealed Mystery” the second I is reproduced by a Hexad and a Tetrad—namely, V and D. I = 10, the decimal scale of Sephirotic notation, the key of processional creation; V = 6 = Tiphereth, and Microprosopus the Son united to D = 4, the Cross. Here is the mystery of the crucifixion of the Son on the tree of life; and again the Qabalah agrees with Christian symbolism.
