Tikunim Chadashim - Tikun 49

"And for all the mighty hand and for all the great awe which Moshe did before the eyes of all Israel." [Devarim 34:12]

The Temple Below and Above — Thrones for Judgment; Two Mashiachs

"The mighty hand" — this is the Temple below. "The great awe" — this is the Temple above. At the time both will join as one — then it is written: "I rejoiced when they said to me: let us go to the house of Hashem" [Tehillim 122:1]. For because of the supernal one that is found there — even the supernal angels will gather and come within it truly.

Come and see — it is written: "our feet were standing in your gates, O Jerusalem." Not "they stood" but "were standing" — for Israel — even though they were in exile — did not depart from those supernal holy gates. On the contrary — through them they were strengthened even more — to be established afterward in a complete Tikun. Therefore: "were standing." And in the time to come: "Jerusalem, built as a city bound together" — in the two Temples — upper and lower — [cf. Taanis 5a]. Therefore: "for there the tribes ascended" — these are the tribes below. "The tribes of Yah — a testimony to Israel" — these are the tribes above — and all the holy hosts. "For there thrones of judgment are set" — these are the two Temples I mentioned.

But here is the mystery: "until thrones were placed" [Dani'el 7:9] — and they established [Chagigah 14a]: one for judgment and one for charity. And one said: one for the Holy One and one for Dovid. And all is true. For the two Temples will be as one — the inner for the Holy One — as a chariot for all the supernal levels and their bond. The outer one — to bring light from within to without — and to whom does it go out? — To Dovid. And this is the King who first receives and distributes to all the worlds. But: one for judgment and one for charity — these matters are more inward. For these two correspond to two: Leah — judgment — strict judgment. And one for charity — this is Rachel — soft judgment. Therefore "thrones of judgment" — one for judgment and one for charity. "Thrones for the house of Dovid" — one for the Holy One and one for Dovid. From then onward: "pray for the peace of Jerusalem" — for all to be in peace and tranquility of all — in the two Mashiachs — of whom it is written: "and they shall be united in your hand."
