44. You can see that the essence of Ḥokhma is in the head of Arikh Anpin, which is the one called the sealed Ḥokhma.80The Ḥokhma of Arikh Anpin is described as sealed because it doesn't reach the lower levels in any direct form. As the previous sections have explained, the entire process of the rectification of lines allows for the illumination of Ḥokhma to reach the lower created beings. However, this ultimate illumination is only a reflection of the pure light of Ḥokhma that is manifest at the highest reaches of Atzilut.
This is because this original Ḥokhma is sealed in the head of Arikh Anpin and does not illuminate to the lower ones, which are below the head of Arikh Anpin.

Upon the emergence of Bina from the head of Arikh Anpin, only the lower seven of Bina were impaired, which are Yisrael Sabba and Tevuna, because they were left without the first three as a result of Bina leaving the head. They are completed only with the return of Bina to the head of Arikh Anpin, since then Bina receives Ḥokhma for Ze’er Anpin and Nukba. At that stage, the lower seven are considered Ḥokhma of the left line, meaning that this light of Ḥokhma is revealed only by way of three lines that emerge in Yisrael Sabba and Tevuna, with the light of Ḥokhma revealed in the left line of these three lines (as stated in section 34 above).
