נח 62

Ba'al Shem Tov · Noach, Chapter 62

‹›
  1. 1

    שמעתי ממורי כי על ידי פנייה חיצונית שהוא קומה שלימה מזה נברא אדם המצערו וכו':
    (צפנת פענח י"ח ע"א)

    I heard from my Master that ulterior motives [in serving G‑d] are a complete structure,46Literally, a “full stature” (קומה שלימה), implying that ulterior motives have all the elements of a body, a “head,” “body,” and “limbs.” and create a real person who will torment you.
    Tzafnah Paneach, p. 18a
