Editing Atik Yomin (section)

== Inner and Outer Aspects of Atik Yomin ==
The partzuf of Atik Yomin is divided into the aspects of inner and outer. The inner aspect of the partzuf of Atik Yomin, which is its three highest [sefiros], is at the level of Malchus of Ein Sof, and does not come into revelation even in the partzuf of Arich Anpin. And this is the matter of risha d'lo isyada, which even Arich Anpin does not know. And the outer aspect of the partzuf of Atik Yomin is the seven lower [sefiros] in it, and they come into revelation by being clothed in Arich Anpin. And since it is explained that Atik Yomin is the final level of the Emanator, and Arich Anpin is the first level in the emanated, it is understood that the seven lower [sefiros] of Atik Yomin that are clothed in the partzuf of Arich Anpin are the illumination from the Ohr Ein Sof that is drawn and clothed in the root of the emanated.

It is explained that the matter of positive mitzvos is from the seven lower [sefiros] of Atik Yomin, and therefore they have the ability to draw [divine light] into the worlds, and negative mitzvos are from the three highest [sefiros] of Atik Yomin, and therefore they do not have the ability to draw [divine light] into the worlds, but only not to prevent the illumination. And the revelation of the three highest [sefiros] of Atik Yomin will only be in the future to come.
