Tikkun 21 – 123
Moses will live with us in the final generation, suffering from our sins.
By his merit we will have mercy from the wrath of God as it is said in Exodus 32:14
“ וַיִּנָּחֶם, יְהוָה, עַל-הָרָעָה, אֲשֶׁר דִּבֶּר לַעֲשׂוֹת לְעַמּוֹ”
“And YHVH repented of the hardship which He said He would do to His people”
And in Isaiah 53:5
“ וְהוּא מְחֹלָל מִפְּשָׁעֵנוּ, מְדֻכָּא מֵעֲוֹנֹתֵינוּ; מוּסַר שְׁלוֹמֵנוּ עָלָיו, וּבַחֲבֻרָתוֹ נִרְפָּא-לָנוּ”
“But he was wounded because of our transgressions, he was crushed because of our iniquities: the chastisement of our welfare was upon him, and with his stripes we were healed”
The Final Redemption has connection to three major holidays, Rosh Hashanah that is the aspect of the Left column, Passover the right column and Shavuot, the central column.
When the central column will be revealed, the new Torah will come to be and the whole world will look to Jerusalem. This will draw a lot of negativity because the world leaders will go against the Mashiach.
The ‘mercy’ of God, which is the accumulation of the light we revealed with our tikkun process, will bridge the connection of Zion and Jerusalem.
Deuteronomy 32:11 “כְּנֶשֶׁר יָעִיר קִנּוֹ, עַל-גּוֹזָלָיו יְרַחֵף”
“As an eagle will wake up to his nest, hovering over his young,”
The nest is Jerusalem and the Eagle is the central column that brings the light from the supernal to Yessod. קִנּוֹ, the nest, has the numerical value of 156, the same as ציון , Zion.
Jerusalem and Zion will be as one when the light is revealed with the third and everlasting Holy Temple.

Tikkun 21 – 121
Genesis 6:19 “וּמִכָּל-הָחַי מִכָּל-בָּשָׂר שְׁנַיִם מִכֹּל, תָּבִיא אֶל-הַתֵּבָה–לְהַחֲיֹת אִתָּךְ”
“And of every living thing of all flesh, two of every sort shall you bring into the ark, to keep them alive with you”
Like the way YHVH ordered Noah who came to the Ark, when Mashiach comes the people that are connected will be included in the safety of ‘Noah’s Ark’.
Jeremiah 3:14 “וְלָקַחְתִּי אֶתְכֶם אֶחָד מֵעִיר, וּשְׁנַיִם מִמִּשְׁפָּחָה, וְהֵבֵאתִי אֶתְכֶם, צִיּוֹן.”
“And I will take you one of a city, and two of a family, and I will bring you to Zion”
This verse tells us that there will be a selection of those who will merit to see the light of the return to Zion.
Zion is the Yessod of Malchut and is the connection of the Light to Jerusalem. The true definition of Zionism is the desire to see the light again in Jerusalem. As it was in the days the Holy Temple stood in Jerusalem.
When the light comes to Zion only few (relatively) will merit to see the glory of the Revelation. Following this event, the rest and worthy people will be resurrected.

Tikkun 21 – 120
The righteous people are written in the Book of Life ספר החיים on Rosh Hashanah because they keep the connection to חי, life, which is the clinging to the Tree of Life. חי is numerically 18, which represents the 9 Sefirot of direct and 9 of returning light.
(Malchut doesn’t have light of its own)
Deuteronomy 4:4 “וְאַתֶּם, הַדְּבֵקִים, בַּיהוָה, אֱלֹהֵיכֶם–חַיִּים כֻּלְּכֶם, הַיּוֹם”
“And you that cleave to YHVH your God are alive every one of you this day”
For those that their actions are mixed with good and bad, the judgment is done on Yom Kippur. The ten days between Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur gives us the opportunity to make Teshuvah, repentance, to remove the negativity from our path.
Ezekiel 33:19 “וּבְשׁוּב רָשָׁע מֵרִשְׁעָתוֹ, וְעָשָׂה מִשְׁפָּט וּצְדָקָה–עֲלֵיהֶם, הוּא יִחְיֶה”
“And when the wicked turned from his wickedness, and does that which is lawful (following the spiritual laws and connect to the central column) and right (elevates light), he shall live.”
The Zohar relates Yom Kippur to Noah’s Ark. If we are worthy then we can be on the ‘Life saving’ ship and if not,
Genesis 7:21 “וַיִּגְוַע כָּל-בָּשָׂר…”
“And all flesh perished…”
As we are getting closer to the end of the Tikkun, we won’t have opportunities to come back to life to complete our correction. Every action we do now must be part of the correction process. There’s no rest on Friday when we’re working for ‘Shabbat’.
Our sages said that “אין מקבלים גרים לימות המשיח”
“No acceptance of converts in the days of the messiah”
When the Tikkun is completed then there’s no more work left to elevate that light.
No matter if you are a Jew or not. The conversion process is to accept and follow the pure system of YHVH, which is the Tree of Life.

Tikkun 21 – 114
(Continuing previous Daily Zohar subject # 366 on)
Jonah 2:2 “ וַיִּתְפַּלֵּל יוֹנָה, אֶל-יְהוָה אֱלֹהָיו, מִמְּעֵי, הַדָּגָה.”
“Then Jonah prayed to YHVH his God out of the fish’s belly”
The lowest levels of the negativity is represented by the word דגה, pronounced Dagah, and means fish but in a female form. The letter H ה, for the H of Malchut, is added דג to represent the vessel/female aspect.
God removed a lot of the negativity, Dagah, in the first plague, blood.
In Exodus 7:18 God promised to remove the negativity from Egypt with the plagues
“ וְהַדָּגָה אֲשֶׁר-בַּיְאֹר תָּמוּת, וּבָאַשׁ הַיְאֹר”
“And the fish that are in the river shall die, and the river shall become foul”
In Exodus 7:21 the promised kept “ וְהַדָּגָה אֲשֶׁר-בַּיְאֹר מֵתָה, וַיִּבְאַשׁ הַיְאֹר’
“And the fish that were in the river died; and the river became foul,”
The lower levels are home for the impure system. The Erev Rav came with the Israelites because of the miracles that they saw in Egypt but the correction process was not comfortable for them. They were still connected to the material world they experienced in Egypt.
Numbers 11:5 “זָכַרְנוּ, אֶת-הַדָּגָה, אֲשֶׁר-נֹאכַל בְּמִצְרַיִם, חִנָּם”
“We remember the fish, which we used to eat in Egypt for free (without earning)”
The Erev Rav are still among us, still seeking the ‘free’ fish, still after our gold and leading us in the wrong direction (golden calf) that separates us from the true light of unity and unconditional love to each other. They may talk about Mashiach but fear of his coming.
The Zohar explains that at the time of The Redemption the miracles of the Exodus will be repeated.
Micha 7:15 “כִּימֵי צֵאתְךָ, מֵאֶרֶץ מִצְרָיִם, אַרְאֶנּוּ, נִפְלָאוֹת”
“As in the days of your coming forth out of the land of Egypt will I show him wonders”
Like when God removed the lowest level, Dagah, with the first plague of blood, he will wipe them out when Mashiach comes.

Tikkun 21 – 93
When the Israelites crossed the sea leaving the Egyptians and Pharaoh’s army swallowed in the sea behind them, it was their breaking of negativity and starting a life of freedom from slavery.
Then they sang the Song of the Sea that is the aspect of the final redemption. They left the bondage of the Egyptians to work on bringing all people of the world to the consciousness of the Israelites, the Torah and the central column.
The Song starts with “אָז יָשִׁיר-מֹשֶׁה וּבְנֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל אֶת-הַשִּׁירָה הַזֹּאת, לַיהוָה”
” Then Moses will sing with the children of Israel this song unto YHVH…”
The song, which is a form of prayer, that was sung after crossing the sea was a connection to the final redemption. Then Moses will lead the Israelites for the final time out of the final exile, which is the blindness and disconnection from the light. Then he will connect זֹּאת, which is Malchut, and the name ADNY to the name YHVH as one יאהדונהי.
The four letters YHVH are for the Holy creatures of the upper chariot and four letters of ADNY represent the four holy creatures of the lower chariot. The eight letters are represented by the word אז, with numerical value of 8 and is the first letter of the song. It implies to the unification of the upper and lower levels as one.
The song has 10 levels that will ascend to Keter and pave the way to Mashiach to come down.
Like the days before the Exodus, we will have to break negativity and wars will come to be on all four levels on the upper and lower levels. This explains the verse that we recite at the end of every connection.
“עוֹשֶׂה שָׁלוֹם בִּמְרוֹמָיו, הוּא בְרַחֲמָיו יַעֲשֶׂה שָׁלוֹם עלינו ועַל כָּל יִשְׂרָאֵל”
“The maker of peace in heavens, with his mercy will make peace on us and on all Israel”
The word for peace in Hebrew שָׁלוֹם is and comes from the same root as the word שלם ‘complete’ and ‘whole’.
The wars are ways of the negativity to connect to the light. Since they do not have light of their own, they make war against those who are connected to it and have the light with them. They will conduct wars on all four levels of the name ADNY, אדני. Mashiach will come at the final stage of the process when all will be under great suffering. He will rule earth and remove all negativity.
Once they are removed, the way for the final unification will be cleared and YHVH will unite with ADNY forever. The light and the vessel will be one. As it is said in Zecharia 14:9
“ וְהָיָה יְהוָה לְמֶלֶךְ, עַל-כָּל-הָאָרֶץ; בַּיּוֹם הַהוּא, יִהְיֶה יְהוָה אֶחָד–וּשְׁמוֹ אֶחָד”
“And YHVH will be King over all the earth; in that day shall YHVH be One, and His name one”
When the light of the unification will begin to flow, the process of the resurrection of the dead will begin.

Tikkun 21 – 57
Psalms 132:17 “שָׁם אַצְמִיחַ קֶרֶן לְדָוִד; עָרַכְתִּי נֵר, לִמְשִׁיחִי” “There I will shoot up a horn to David, I prepared a candle to my Messaiah”
Deuteronomy 33:17 “ בְּכוֹר שׁוֹרוֹ הָדָר לוֹ, וְקַרְנֵי רְאֵם קַרְנָיו”
“… and his horns are of the wild ox…”
The cantillation of “Karnei Para” 
, meaning cow/ox horns is in the aspect of the two Messiahs, Mashiach Ben Yosef and Ben David for Yod and Vav of the YHVH name and the two Holy Temples for the two H of the YHVH.
The Red Heffer
Numbers 19:2 “פָרָה אֲדֻמָּה תְּמִימָה אֲשֶׁר אֵין-בָּהּ מוּם, אֲשֶׁר לֹא-עָלָה עָלֶיהָ, עֹל”
“…Red heifer, faultless, wherein is no blemish, and upon which never came yoke.”
The light of Chokmah in the left column when appears with light of Chessed, is called fire and its color is red.
The Red heifer is from the left side, Gevurah. The right column, Chessed, Abraham, is complete good, תמים as it is said in Genesis 17:1 “הִתְהַלֵּךְ לְפָנַי, וֶהְיֵה תָמִים”. “…Walk before me, and be complete good”
Flawless, אין בה מוׁם is the central column. Jacob represents the central column and was called, Genesis 25:27 “וְיַעֲקֹב אִישׁ תָּם” “and Jacob was a flawless man”
אשר לא עלה עליה עול, “without yoke”, means “did not experience slavery”. The attributes of the red Heifer gives it the cleansing power from death.
The Zohar says that Shechina is revealed on Shabbat because we are not dealing with our ‘slavery’, which is the work of the weekdays.
The Seventh day is our rest from slavery and that is what let us connect to the Shechina and the cleansing power of that light.

Tikkun 21 – 16
When the Holy one Bless be He, plan to make a miracle, the Shechinah comes to that place.
When Moses hit the rock, the Shechinah went away and God was upset because there was a loss of connection between the light and the vessel.
This explains Numbers 20:12 “וַיֹּאמֶר יְהוָה, אֶל-מֹשֶׁה וְאֶל-אַהֲרֹן, יַעַן לֹא-הֶאֱמַנְתֶּם בִּי, לְהַקְדִּישֵׁנִי לְעֵינֵי בְּנֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל–לָכֵן, לֹא תָבִיאוּ אֶת-הַקָּהָל הַזֶּה, אֶל-הָאָרֶץ, אֲשֶׁר-נָתַתִּי לָהֶם”
“…because you didn’t believe in me to sanctify me, …you will not bring the people to the land which I have given them.”
To sanctify is להקדיש, meaning to make holy. YHVH wanted to make a connection through the water to the Shechinah and transfer the supernal light to the people.
If the people were to reach the Promised Land (vessel and Shechinah) with that water (=supernal light) the vessel would have been filled and would have created equality between light and vessel. This is the goal and process of creation, to bring back the oneness that was in the beginning.
Genesis 1:9 “יִקָּווּ הַמַּיִם מִתַּחַת הַשָּׁמַיִם אֶל-מָקוֹם אֶחָד” “let the water gather into one place…”, That place is the Holy Land.
The archangel Metatron, represented by the rock, was the bridge between upper and lower. He was “one foot” inside Malchut. His name was מיטטרון, with Yod after the Mem. Numerical value 324. Bridging Binah with 10 times 10 sefirot add 100 to the process and we get 424, which is for “Mashiach ben David”. That is the aspect of complete connection between the light and vessel.
Because hitting the rock was at the lower level, the letter Yod from Metatron’s name left with the Shechinah. Metatron is now at the supernal gate and the ‘job’ of bridging the supernal light to the vessel with Mashiach is left to Moses to complete.

Tikkun 21 – 7
Before Jacob left the world he gathered his children (Genesis 49:1) and announced them what will happen in the end of days.
In 49:10 “לֹא-יָסוּר שֵׁבֶט מִיהוּדָה, וּמְחֹקֵק מִבֵּין רַגְלָיו, עַד כִּי-יָבֹא שִׁילֹה, וְלוֹ יִקְּהַת עַמִּים” ” The scepter shall not depart from Judah, nor the ruler’s staff from between his feet, as long as men come to Shiloh; and unto him shall the obedience of the peoples be. ”
He told the children that Judah will endure suffering and judgment until Moses comes.
שִׁילֹה, Shiloh is the same Gematria as משה, Moses, who is the key to win over Amalek.
Amalek has the same numerical value as the word “doubt”, which is the source of negativity that weakens our connection to the Light.
Exodus 17:11 “ וְהָיָה, כַּאֲשֶׁר יָרִים מֹשֶׁה יָדוֹ–וְגָבַר יִשְׂרָאֵל; וְכַאֲשֶׁר יָנִיחַ יָדוֹ, וְגָבַר עֲמָלֵק”,” And it came to pass, when Moses held up his hand, that Israel prevailed; and when he let down his hand, Amalek prevailed.”
Moses gave us the method to win over Amalek, which is the doubts we have in the Light.
If we rise up to the light, we win the battle and if we rest, we lose.
The Zohar tells us that Moses descended from a line that built the power to win the final battle over Amalek.
The first letter of their names spelled Amalek עמלק.
Levi – ל – לוי
Kehat – ק – קהת
Amram – ע – עמרם
Moses – מ – משה
When Moses comes back with the Mashiach he will fulfill God’s promise to remove Amalek from existence.
Exodus 17:14 “וַיֹּאמֶר יְהוָה אֶל-מֹשֶׁה, כְּתֹב זֹאת זִכָּרוֹן בַּסֵּפֶר, וְשִׂים, בְּאָזְנֵי יְהוֹשֻׁעַ: כִּי-מָחֹה אֶמְחֶה אֶת-זֵכֶר עֲמָלֵק, מִתַּחַת הַשָּׁמָיִם”
“And YHVH said to Moses: ‘Write this for a memorial in the book, and rehearse it in the ears of Joshua: for I will utterly blot out the remembrance of Amalek from under heaven.”
And also in Deuteronomy 25:19 Moses reminds us “תִּמְחֶה אֶת-זֵכֶר עֲמָלֵק, מִתַּחַת הַשָּׁמָיִם; לֹא, תִּשְׁכָּח” “that you shall blot out the remembrance of Amalek from under heaven; you shall not forget.”
Moses won the first battle over the nation of Amalek and removed their physical existence. In the Final Redemption he will remove the memory and the energy of doubt that they left in the world.

Tikkun 19 – 6
Our individual and the generational Tikkun is counted during the six millennia toward the revelation of the light of the Final redemption. We are in the year 5770 close to the end of the sixth millennia since creation. It is the time of ‘Friday Night’ and the gate is soon to be opened forever as intended on the first day, before the sin.
The sages tell us that the time of Mashiach will be like a day that is all Shabbat.
The dew in the verse refers to the name YHVH without the H of Malchut in its expanded (spelled out) form יוד הא ואו with numerical value 39, same as dew טל.
The same dew is for the resurrection of the dead which is the upper light of YHV that will bring the life force that awaits us from the day of creation.

Tikkun 18 Continue
Rabbi Shimon continues his explanation to his son, Rabbi Elazar about the Klipot that is connected to the rainbow.
The three Klipot of Chessed, Gevurah and Tiferet caused the dislocation of Jacob’s foot and flawed his connection to Yessod.
When they will be removed, the rainbow will shine with full light. This will happen when Mashiach is revealed and the light and vessel will be connected in equality.
