When a person comprehends that the world has no true existence - "there is nothing else" - they grasp the level of '''Godliness beyond the worlds''' (the aspect of 'wonder' that transcends understanding). Through the Jewish people's service in fulfilling Torah and mitzvot, the level of Godliness beyond the worlds - G-d's infinite power - is revealed in the world. This is also the reason for the supernatural wonders that will occur during the Redemption, as well as the unlimited knowledge of Godliness that will exist then, when "everyone will know Me."

In [[Kabbalah]], the level of Godliness relative to the world belongs to the six emotional attributes from Chesed to Yesod ("six days G-d made heaven and earth" - the six attributes through which the world was created and is directed). The level of Godliness beyond the worlds belongs to the three intellectual attributes: Chochma, Bina and [[Sefiras HaDaas (The Sefira of Daas)|Daat]] (Torah wisdom that transcends the world). More broadly, the ten Sefirot (including the three intellectual attributes) belong to the order of world evolution and are called the aspect of 'ten'. In contrast, the aspect of Keter - extends to The Essence of God himself - which transcends world evolution, is called the aspect of 'eleven'.
