Zohar Tetzaveh
Continued from previous DZ

#115
If we consider drinking a separate restriction for atonement, we count six restrictions. Drinking is from the side of Isaac, Gevurah, and eating is from the side of Abraham, Chessed. Even though drinking is part of eating, they can be counted as two. In this case, the sixth restriction of marital relations appropriately corresponds to the level of Yessod.

Numbers 29:7
“וּבֶעָשׂוֹר לַחֹדֶשׁ הַשְּׁבִיעִי הַזֶּה מִקְרָא קֹדֶשׁ יִהְיֶה לָכֶם וְעִנִּיתֶם אֶת נַפְשֹׁתֵיכֶם כָּל מְלָאכָה לֹא תַעֲשׂוּ.”
“‘On the tenth day of this seventh month, you shall have a holy convocation. You shall afflict your souls; you shall not do any work.”
The word ‘עָשׂוֹר’ literally means decade, but it is translated as ‘tenth’ so the verse can make sense. The Zohar asks why the verse says decade when the actual day of Yom Kippur is the tenth of the seventh month. The Zohar answers that all the upper levels come together on that day, one on top of the other. It means that each of the ten sefirot has its own ten, and ten times ten is one hundred. Binah, the mother, with her ten sefirot, come to illuminate Malchut and become one on Yom Kippur in the secret of the number ten.

Lesson;
The way the verse indicates the day reveals the spiritual aspect of the day and the connection to the upper level of Binah.
There are no mistakes in the Torah. If we see something unexpected, then we should know that there are secrets to reveal in that place.
