== Angels and Souls == The souls of The Yidden are drawn from the inner dimension of the worlds, and angels are drawn from the external dimension of the worlds. This difference also affects the purpose of each and their service. The drawing down of angels is from the externality of the worlds, which are drawn from "zivug neshikin" (kiss union), unlike the souls of The Yidden which are drawn from the aspect of "zivug gufani" (bodily union) which is from the inner dimension of the worlds. Therefore, souls are in the aspect of "adam" (human) that stand in a complete structure (meaning, their essence is intellect), compared to angels who are in the aspect of "behemah" (animal) (meaning, their essence is middot/emotions, which are in the force of excitement, and therefore they are called "mighty ones"). Therefore, the angels are divided into camps, the face of a lion and the face of an ox, etc. The matter of the face of a lion refers to angels drawn from the sefirah of Chesed, and their service is with love, while the face of an ox refers to service with fear. This aspect only exists with angels, as humans are in the aspect of a complete structure, and include all ten sefirot.
