Genesis 29:2
“וַיַּרְא וְהִנֵּה בְאֵר בַּשָּׂדֶה וְהִנֵּה שָׁם שְׁלֹשָׁה עֶדְרֵי צֹאן רֹבְצִים עָלֶיהָ כִּי מִן הַבְּאֵר הַהִוא יַשְׁקוּ הָעֲדָרִים וְהָאֶבֶן גְּדֹלָה עַל פִּי הַבְּאֵר.”
“And he looked, and saw a well in the field; and behold, there were three flocks of sheep lying by it; for out of that well they watered the flocks. A large stone was on the well’s mouth.”

“Well in the field” is a level called “Master of the earth,” which is the Nukva, Malchut, when she receives Chokmah. “Master” is used in a male form, referring to Zeir Anpin. “Three flocks of sheep” refers to the upper three Holy levels established on the well. “Well in the field” is the sefirot Netzach, Hod, Yessod that draw water, meaning sustenance from above Zeir Anpin, and fill up the well.

The source of the well is Yessod that is the foundation of the world. It dwells inside the well with constant flow and produces fruits that the well is filled by. Yessod provides for the well two kinds of plenty. One is the fruitfulness to produce souls, and the second is sustenance for the lower levels. Since the well is filled with abundance, the flocks that are all the souls and holy armies draw from this well, each according to its merits.

“A large stone was on the well’s mouth” is the stone that the world stumbled upon, as we read in (Isaiah 8:14) “a stone of stumbling and a rock of offense.” It represents the Sitra Achra that always stands on the well’s mouth, and according to its command, claims judgment on the whole world, that no food and goods descended to this world. This means that when the Nukva receives from the Left without Chassadim from the Right, she punishes and demands justice.

Lesson;
When we rearranged the letters of the word ‘well’ ‘באר’ we read ‘ברא’ ‘create,’ which is the first three letters of the Torah and also the second word of it.
We can draw abundance from the ‘well’ that is the Torah if we connect with Chassadim (good deeds) and a pure heart.
King David asks Hashem to renew his heart in a pure state.
Psalm 51:12 “לֵב טָהוֹר בְּרָא לִי אֱלֹהִים וְרוּחַ נָכוֹן חַדֵּשׁ בְּקִרְבִּי.”
“Create in me a pure heart, O God, And renew a faithful spirit (Ruach) within me.”
This word and verse can be a Mikveh meditation. When we immerse entirely underwater, we disconnect from this world, and no negativity can get attached to us. We stop breathing, and it is like an aspect of death. Like a baby coming out of a womb full of water, taking his first breath. It’s good to fold the body underwater like a fetus’s position in the womb. The water that surrounds the body is chassadim, and It’s an excellent time to meditate on the verse above and ask Hashem to renew our soul without the evil inclination and have a ‘rebirth’ when coming out of the water.
With a pure heart, the ‘well’ is always open for us.
