The Alter Rebbe explains that Erech Apayim means exactly what it sounds like - the revelation of the "face" (panim) in a manner of length (arichut) and infinity. For "face" represents the revelation of divine influence through closeness, love, and affection, unlike "back" which is like one who throws something over his shoulder. And "Erech Apayim" means that this revelation should be long and extend very far downward. | The Alter Rebbe explains that Erech Apayim means exactly what it sounds like - the revelation of the "face" (panim) in a manner of length (arichut) and infinity.
