סימן פ"ב-כי תצא

Hodu [thanksgiving]: "pen titein la'acherim hodecha [lest you give your honor to others]." And see in Zohar Vayechi, p. 240b — where it expounds there: "chgor charbecha al yerech [gird your sword upon your thigh]" — on the matter of the repair of the covenant. And he concludes: "and therefore — and so on." And so on — as elaborated in the discourse. [Ps

Halleluya: "asheh yir'as Haveye'ah hi tishallal [a woman who fears Haveye'ah — she shall be praised]." For the above blemish comes from the evil woman [ishah ra'ah] who is bitter as death — as is known. And hallel is the opposite of this — the aspect of: "sheker hacheim v'hevel hayofi [grace is deceitful and beauty is vain]." And so on — as elaborated in the discourse. alms 139] "Achor vakadem tzartani v'tashes alai kapecha [You have hedged me behind and before — and laid Your hand upon me]." Al tikri kapecha ela kapecha [do not read "Your palm" — kapecha with a kaf — but "Your palms" — kapecha with two kafs]. Meaning: Yud = numerically kaf. And so on. In my humble opinion the meaning is: for just as one must guard — and so on — as elaborated in the discourse. And so on — as elaborated in the discourse. There — in the above discourse: "and this secret is alluded in Etz Chayyim, Kelal 19 [which is: as above] — and in the kavvanot of Rosh Chodesh Elul." See in the discourse Kra Es Yehoshua, Siman 6 above. And so on — as elaborated in the discourse.
