The repair was not brought about in the vessels in order to bring them to return to a state of repair by themselves. (The repair did not operate on the vessels themselves. Rather, it came about through the construction of the Partzufim out of the lights of MaH and BaN combined, and the vessels were then repaired as a matter of course as each entered its proper place in the structure of the Partzufim.
The vessels – from BaN – thus could not be repaired by themselves but only through being connected with the lights of MaH.) For the Sefirot of BaN – which were in a state of breakage – were aspects that took control only at the time when the Likeness of Man had not yet been revealed. (Their existence was temporary from the very outset.) But with the emergence of the essential Likeness of Man – MaH – the repair of these initial aspects also followed as a matter of course.
