Olam Ha'asiyah is the lowest world among the four worlds of ABYA. From Olam Ha'atzilut, where the Ohr Ein Sof itself dwells, the light is concealed through a partition (parsa) in order to allow the creation of Olam HaBeriah. From Olam HaBeriah, the light descends and contracts to Olam HaYetzirah, and from there it contracts even further in its descent to Olam Ha'asiyah. Thus, Olam Ha'asiyah is the lowest of the four worlds of ABYA. It is understood that this world is lower than the worlds that preceded Olam Ha'atzilut, as it is the final and lowest world in the order of hishtalshelut (chainlike descent). | Olam Ha'asiyah is the lowest world among the four worlds of ABYA.

It is explained that the difference between Olam HaYetzirah and Olam Ha'asiyah is a difference of distance. Olam HaBeriah corresponds to thought and Olam HaYetzirah corresponds to speech, and there is a relationship between them, as what a person thinks, they speak. This is not the case with Olam Ha'asiyah, which corresponds to action, which is distant from thought and speech. Therefore it is said, "I have also made it," indicating that Olam Ha'asiyah is in the category of distance. | It is explained that the difference between Olam HaYetzirah and Olam Ha'asiyah is a difference of distance.
