== Parts of Torah == ==== Nigleh ==== The term Nigleh d'Oraisa refers to the revealed part of Torah, which includes the study of Tanach, Mishna, Gemara, Halacha, and their commentaries. These are like the body of Torah, its external part, which guides daily life, prohibitions and permissions, and Torah stories. The "Nigleh" portion originates from the externality of the Kav, which is the boundary of the Kav's light, meaning the Kav's light as it relates to the worlds (being their source). Therefore, Nigleh is the primary means through which the world connects with Hashem, as stated in the Zohar: "Three bonds are connected one with another: Israel with Torah, and Torah with Hakadosh Baruch Hu." ==== Nistar ==== The "hidden" part of Torah is Kabbalah and Chassidus, which deal with the inner reasons for all prohibitions and permissions, and the internal explanations of Torah stories found in Kabbalah and explained further with practical daily life applications in Chassidus. The root of Torah's inner dimension is at the highest level - beyond the root of the worlds, as it is written: "Hashem acquired me at the beginning of His way," meaning Torah was acquired before the world, representing the King's delight within Himself, about which it is said "I was with Him as a nursling, I was His delight daily." This level is the inner dimension of the Kav's light, which is the Ohr Ein Sof within the Kav.
