SAMECH — Numerical Value: 60 | The letter of support, of the closed circle | 17 source entries
[Translator's Note] The Samech is a closed circle — the Kabbalists teach it represents divine support (somech noflim — "He supports the fallen"). Source lines 10 and 12 are two sides of the same entry (Sam Terei = Samterei); lines 15–16 are one entry split across two lines.
Hebrew EntryEnglish Translation & ExplanationSource
סגלגלות — סגל גלות
Notarikon
Segalgalos (סגלגלות, "roundness / spherical form") is read as סֶגֶל גלות — "segol of exile." The round vowel-sign segol (ֶ — three dots in a triangle) contains within its very name the concept of exile.
[The segol is three dots arranged like an inverted triangle — a crown turned downward. Its hidden name means "exile-segol" — teaching that the rounded, contained forms of this world carry the shape of exile within them, awaiting the restoration of the upright crown.]
Likutay Mooharan 58:10
סגול / חיריק / שין
Gematria (×3)
A cluster of vowel-sign gematrias from the same lesson:
(1) The segol of the Name קס"א [161] and the chirik of the Name ס"ג [63] together in simple gematria = the value of the letter peshutah (simple form);
(2) The same two vowels together = the gematria of תיו (Tav — the last letter of the alphabet);
(3) The segol alone, times ten (Yud times) = the gematria of שין (Shin = 360).
[These three connected teachings from lesson 6 of Likutay Mooharan reveal the hidden architecture of the vowel-signs — the "inner clothing" of the letters. The vowels that fill the Names of G-d sum to the final letter of the alphabet and to the letter of fire (Shin).]
Likutay Mooharan 6:7
ס"ה — אדני
Gematria
Samech-Heh (ס"ה = 65) = gematria of the Divine Name Adonai (אדני = 65). [Cross-reference from Section 1.]
Likutay Mooharan 38:2
סוכה — מלאך
Gematria
Sukkah (סוכה, "the Sukkos festival booth" = 91) = gematria of malach (מלאך, "angel" = 91). [Cross-reference from Section 13.] The Sukkah is the angel's embrace — the divine protection that surrounds us from all sides.
Likutay Mooharan II:5; 14
ס'וף א'דם ל'מות
Roshay Saveivos
The first letters of "the end of man is death" (ס׳וף א׳דם ל׳מות) [based on the Talmudic saying, Berachos 17a] spell the Divine Name סאל (Sa'el). [Cross-reference from Section 1.] The very phrase about man's mortality encodes a Divine Name — death is not the end but a divine doorway.
Likutay Mooharan 213
סיון
Roshay Saveivos
Sivan — first letters of ו׳יעקב נ׳סע ס׳כותה ו׳יבן: "And Yaakov journeyed to Sukkos and built." [Cross-reference from Section 6.]
Likutay Mooharan 266 in Meimay HaNachal
סיני — סלם
Gematria
Sinai (סיני = 130) = gematria of סלם (sulam, "ladder" = 130). The mountain of Sinai and Yaakov's ladder are numerically identical — both are the same ascending connection between heaven and earth.
[One of the most famous gematrias in all of Kabbalah: Sinai = sulam = 130. The ladder that Yaakov saw in his dream (sulam mutzav artzah veroshoh magi'a hashamayimah — "a ladder set on the earth whose top reaches heaven") is the same mountain upon which the Torah was given. Both connect earth and heaven; both are 130.]
Sichos HaRan 86
סם תרי — סמתרי
Notarikon
Sam Terei (סם תרי, Aramaic: "two drugs / remedies") = Samterei (סמתרי — the name of a specific angel or divine force). And conversely: Samterei = Sam Terei. The angelic force is literally "two remedies" — a double healing agent.
[The Talmud (Shabbos 67a) mentions samterei in a halachic context. Its decoding as "two remedies" reveals a dual healing dimension concealed within the angelic name.]
Likutay Mooharan II:5; 16
סמאל
Roshay Saveivos
Sama'el (סמאל — the prosecuting angel) — first letters of א׳תה ס׳תר ל׳י מ׳צר: "You are my shelter from distress." [Cross-reference from Section 1.] G-d's shelter contains the adversary's name — the place of concealment is also the adversary's domain.
Likutay Mooharan 213
סנפיר — ארבע מאות / רע עין
Gematria (×2)
Snapir (סנפיר, "fin [of a fish]") = gematria of 400 (ארבע מאות) and also = gematria of רע עין (ra ayin, "evil eye"). [Cross-reference from Section 1.] The fin that enables fish to navigate the depths, the number 400, and the evil eye are all numerically one.
Sichos HaRan 242
סערה — ס"ה ר"ע
Gematria
Sa'arah (סערה, "storm / tempest") embodies the aspect of ס"ה ר"ע — i.e. 65 and 270 — for from the aspect of 65 (= Adonai, the aspect of speech) there emerge 270 letters, since there are 27 letters [of the Hebrew alphabet] and each letter contains ten [inner dimensions], making 270 letters in total. The storm is thus speech erupting into its full 270-letter totality.
[Sa'arah = samech-heh (65, = Adonai) + reish-ayin (270, = the total of all letters). The storm of divine speech generates the entire 270-letter universe. Ezekiel's great vision of the divine chariot began with a storm (ruach se'arah) — the eruption of divine speech into all its letters.]
Likutay Mooharan 38:2
ספר — שם
Gematria
Sefer (ספר, "book" = 340) = gematria of שם (shem, "Name" = 340). A book is a Name — the Torah scroll is the Name of G-d written out in full.
[Sefer (book) = shem (Name) = 340. The three aspects of sefer, sofer, sippur (book, scribe, story) in the Sefer Yetzirah are all expressions of the divine Name. Writing a Torah scroll is the act of inscribing the Name of G-d.]
Likutay Mooharan II:32
[Translator's Summary — Section 15, Samech — 17 source entries fully covered]
Samech yields a concise but jewel-like set of teachings. The most celebrated: Sinai = sulam (ladder) = 130 — the mountain of Torah and Yaakov's dream are one. Segalgalos (roundness) = "exile-segol" — the rounded forms of this world carry exile within them. Sa'arah (storm) = 65 + 270 — speech erupting into its full letter-universe. And the book (sefer) equals the Name (shem) — to read Torah is to encounter the Name of G-d.
