Da'as Tevunos - Section 100

Said the Intellect - You need to know that everything that is or is maintained in existence - would not be or be maintained other than through the G-dly emanation which flows from Him may He be blessed, and according to the existence of the G-dly emanation so is the existence borne from it. And this matter was explained well by the great Rabbi the Rambam may his memory be blessed in his book the guide [to the perplexed], in section two in many chapters, and one of them, in chapter 10 of it. And an example of this is the G-dly emanation of the stars, which we know that gave birth to all the matters of this lower world, and as they say may their memory be blessed, (Breishit Rabbah 10:6), "There is no blade of grass below that does not have a constellation in the heavens that strikes it and says grow"; and like he brought may his memory be blessed in his explanation. And indeed, these provide G-dly emanation according to the rule which has been made their nature by the Lord may He be blessed, and provided G-dly emanation of only that which they receive from Him may he be blessed; but the Lord may He be blessed He is the source of all G-dly emanation which emanates. And he explained may his memory be blessed in chapter twelve about this, "...the source of living waters is G-d" which was mentioned by the prophet Jeremiah (17:13), and similarly (Psalms 36:10) "For with you is the source of life..." that was said by king David peace unto him, that meant to say the G-dly emanation of existence. And the generality of the matter is said may their memory be a blessing, as was explained to us the He is without a body, and He caused it that all is His action, it it said that the world from G-dly emanation of the creator is renewed, and that he provides G-dly emanation to it for all that is renewed in it, and similarly it is said that He provides G-dly emanation from his wisdom, see there:

And indeed you have heard already, that all the actions that the Master may He be blessed does with us - not one of them are from his matters may he be blessed, according to his straightforward essence, which is elevated above all blessing and praise, for He relative to himself is certainly exalted above all that is relevant to his creations. But all of them are matters that He may He be blessed innovated through His will and desire, and they are the types of G-dly emanation which he wanted and innovated to be a source of G-dly emanation and to go according to the order which he decreed in his wondrous wisdom, all things which are relevant to the existence of those whom he willed to exist. And it emerges, that the reason and the reasoned are both like one innovated from His will may He be blessed; meaning, the types of G-dly emanation and its ways are the reason, and the creations are the reasoned. And indeed the Master may He be blessed innovated types and ways of G-dly emanation, according to the types of the existent beings whom he willed to be, for each individual type of G-dly emanation produces one type of existent beings. And this is straightforward, for the G-dly emanation of Wisdom [chochmah] is one type of G-dly emanation and the G-dly emanation of Power [Gevurah] is a different type of G-dly emanation, and the G-dly emanation of Wealth is a different type of G-dly emanation, and so with regard to all of them.
