Three Letters Tov [Tet-Vav-Bet]

324) “And God saw the light that it was good.” Any dream that stands in the solution of “And it was good” shows that there is peace for him above and below. In the upper world, where there is none who slanders him, and in the lower world. Each one sees letters in his dream according to his ways and actions. If he sees a Tet in his dream, it is good for him and good for his dream, since the Torah began writing the letter Tet with the words “And it was good.” It is so because there is no letter Tet in the Torah prior to that, and it concerns the light that illuminated from the end of the world to its end. Therefore, Tet indicates that it is Tov [good], and good means illumination that illuminates in the complete wholeness.

325) The letter Tet is the ninth to everything, meaning Yesod, which is ninth to the ten Sefirot. It is a letter that illuminates through the upper one, who is called Resheet [beginning]. It is included in it in AA who is called Resheet because it is the first Partzuf, the carrier of the dot of the key, the dot on which all the Mochin ‎appear. And because the Tet receives from AA, who is called Resheet, she also illuminates in the dot of the key, and all the Mochin ‎appear through her.

By the blocking that is at the dot of the key, the Yod that enters the light and becomes Avir, which is one dot, was made. That is, the Yod that enters the light of YESHSUT ‎and became Avir, that Yod was made from the dot of the key, and the second dot, the lock, is not disclosed in it. Hence, at the time of Gadlut ‎the Yod comes out of the Avir, and that Yod was made of the dot of the key. The second dot, the lock, is not disclosed in it. For this reason, at the time of Gadlut ‎the Yod comes out of the Avir, and YESHSUT ‎return to being light. But if the second dot, the lock, was connected to the Yod, then the Yod would not be able to exit the Avir, as it is in AVI. Also, she is one dot because the second dot, the lock, did not connect to her.

The Vav, ZA, came out because of the Tet. When the heaven, ZA, ends, it is made in one dot, the lock, and she is concealed within it. Afterwards, the second dot, extending from the Tet, the key, illuminated in it.

Commentary: ZA, Vav of HaVaYaH, the heaven, came out from the dot of the key ‎through the Tet. However, first ZA was established at the dot of the lock, and once it ended at the dot of Chazeh of ZA—where the great Partzuf ‎ZA ends because of the Tet—the dot of the lock was concealed there and extended from Chazeh ‎and below of ZA by the illumination of the second dot at the dot of the key. Thus, the Sium of Partzuf ‎ZA from Chazeh ‎and above is at the dot of the lock, and the Sium of Partzuf ‎ZA from Chazeh ‎and below, the small ZA, is at the dot of the key.

Two females come out of ZA: an upper one, above the Chazeh, and a lower one, below the Chazeh. The upper one is hidden, as it comes out from the dot of the lock in ZA, and the lower one was disclosed in the two dots of the lock and the key. However, she stands only by the force of the upper dot of the key, and the dot of the lock is hidden in it and is not apparent. This is why the Mochin ‎are disclosed in her.

326) This is Tet-Vav-Bet [Tov (good)]. The Tet is Yesod of YESHSUT. The Vav is ZA. The Bet are the two females, upper and lower. These three letters Tov were later included in “A righteous is the foundation of the world” who includes everything above and below, Yesod of ZA, who includes these three phases. It is written, “Say of the righteous, ‘It is good,’” since the righteous, Yesod [foundation], is called so because the three phases ‎of upper light implied in Tet Vav Bet are included in him.

It is written, “The Lord is good to all.” The words “To all” do not detail to whom He is good because to illuminate one day that illuminates to all is Yesod, the sixth day, as it incorporates all five days. This is why Yesod is called “all,” and it is written, “The Lord is good to all,” for the good illuminates in Yesod.
