SYNOPSIS:

you shall pass through the fire" We learn that the soul is the vessel of God, and that God will not dwell in it until it is purged in the fire of Gvurah. Also, people are cleansed by the Written Torah from the right, that is referred to as 'water'. The completely wicked are purified in Gehenom but those who study the Oral Torah and the Written Torah are purified through the Torah.

וְכָל טוּמְאָה נִדָּה, וּמְצוֹרָע, וְזָב וְזָבָה וְיוֹלֶדֶת, בְּאֶשָּׁא דִּגְבוּרָה אִיהוּ שׂוֹרֵף. דְּנִשְׁמְתָא אִיהוּ מָאנָא דְּקוּדְשָׁא בְּרִיךְ הוּא, וְאִיהוּ לָא שָׁרֵי בָּהּ, עַד דְּאִתְלַבְּנַת בְּאֶשָּׁא דִּגְבוּרָה, דִּכְתִּיב הֲלֹא כֹה דְּבָרִי כָּאֵשׁ נְאֻם יְיָ'. וּבְהַאי אֶשָּׁא, אִם בַּרְזֶל הוּא מִתְפּוֹצֵץ, וְאִם אֶבֶן הוּא נִמוֹחַ.

Translation

Every uncleanness such as that of a woman in her menstrual flow, a leper, or a man or a woman who has a discharge and a woman who gives birth the fire of Gvurah consumes THEM - the soul is the vessel of the Holy One, blessed be He, AND THE HOLY ONE, BLESSED BE HE, does not dwell in it until it is purged in the fire of Gvurah, as is written: "'is not My word like a fire?' says Hashem" (Yirmeyah 23:29). In this fire, if THE EVIL INCLINATION is like iron, it explodes; if it is like stone, it melts.

chanoch's Commentary

With Rabbi Ashlag's commentary the pasuk is clear as written. What word would you substitute for Gevurah? judgment - strength - power - Lion - Letters of the 72 Names - restraint - limitation?

Translation

And of the right, the place of the Written Torah, that is REFERRED TO AS 'water', IT SAYS: "and she shall be cleansed from the flow of her blood" (Vayikra 12:7). Through her are cleansed a leper, one who is unclean through contact with a dead body, one who has a discharge and one who is defiled through contact with any kind of insect. This is what is meant by: "then will I sprinkle clean water upon you, and you shall be clean" (Yechezkel 36:25).

chanoch's Commentary

This pasuk is teaching what impurities can be cleaned by water. The highest form of Torah is understanding which is the Torah within the pasukim of the Zohar. The highest form of Mikvah is gilgul hasheleg - rolling in the snow.

Translation

In the Central Column, the vessel is united with her husband, THE VESSEL being a woman, MALCHUT. After becoming sanctified in the Left COLUMN and becoming cleansed in the ritual waters in the Right COLUMN, SHE IS UNITED IN THE CENTRAL COLUMN. It is said about Pesach utensils: such utensils that were used to serve cold things, one dips them ritually in cold water and they are cleansed. Since they are the souls that came from the side of Mercy and they are merciful, graceful and kind, they do not require cleansing in lukewarm water like those of average people. Most certainly they are not cleansed in the very hot waters, through which the completely wicked purify themselves, those who heat themselves in the fire of the Evil Inclination. About them, it is written: "everything that comes into the fire...you shall pass through the fire" (Bemidbar 31:23), since the filth on them is great. However, the completely righteous are cleansed with cold water, since it was said about them: whoever puts space between the ones that cleave together MEANING THAT HE DOES NOT STICK TOGETHER WHILE PRONOUNCING THE LETTERS IN THE RECITAL OF SH'MA ONE TO THE OTHER, the Gehenom is cooled down for him.

chanoch's Commentary

With contemplation this verse becomes clear to the Students of Kabbalah.

Translation

If the souls are materialistic, in that they are like clay utensils, their breakage is their purification. As it is said, if they are broken, they are cleansed. The secret of this is: "the sacrifices of Elohim are a broken spirit" (Tehilim 51:19). However, as for those involved in studying the Written Torah and the Oral Torah, which are fire and water, and those who are striving after the secrets of the Torah, which is light, of which it is written: "and Torah is light" (Mishlei 6:23), they are purified through the Torah and do not need Gehenom.

chanoch's Commentary

In this generation the meaning of Torah is all 4 levels + the 6 levels of the oral Torah. This is the Chok Israel which is available on the Yeshshem webpage. A soul of this level is not able to be cleansed in Gehinom but is only cleansed through reincarnation.

Translation

Furthermore, we find in the chapter about seeing, 'One who sees dates (Heb. temarim) in his dream, it means his iniquities have ended (Heb. tamu)'. This is what is written: "the punishment of your iniquity is accomplished, O daughter of Zion" (Eichah 4:22), because temarim consists of THE LETTERS of tam (Eng. 'whole'), which is Jacob's level, about whom it is written: "and Jacob was a plain (Heb. tam) man" (Beresheet 25:27). The sins are bitter (Heb. marim) and, therefore, dates contain THE LETTERS tam and mar. Therefore, that indicates that his sins are over.
