...and this was the state from which the Other Side emerged... As I have already explained, at first all the different aspects of the governmental order were calculated individually, until the entire process could be seen before us like a set table – from the concealment of the perfection until its return to be revealed again – so as to understand thereby how evil reverts to good through the mystery of the unity, as stated above.
Afterwards, each individual calculation by itself gave rise to one corresponding offspring among the separate creations. Thus different entities and contingencies emerge in the separate realms as manifestations of different aspects of the overall process. The nature of the different creations depends on the nature of their root, and they function according to that nature to the extent to which they are permitted in accordance with the overall direction of the complete governmental order (since the governmental order is the source of the separate creations).
