      "en": "\"Rosh B'nai Yisroel\" [head of the children of Israel] — the initial letters spell \"Rabbi\". And in reverse — \"u'R'sha'im ba-choshech yidamu\" [and the wicked shall be silent in darkness] — the initial letters also spell \"Rabbi\".\n\n[According to what is known from the Ba'al Shem Tov — that through arrogance one can fall from the highest heights to the deepest depths [\"me'igra ramma l'bira amikta\"] — and it is possible to go from the head of the children of Israel to the opposite. And similarly through eating food that was not yet clarified — as in the case of Yochanan the High Priest — as written in the name of the Ari, of blessed memory.]"
