Having discussed the Partzufim and what they have in common, we must now explain in what respect they differ from one another.

Part 1: Some of the Partzufim are male and some are female. This is obvious, because the intention follows the principle of Balance (matkela, מתקלא) – to repair everything through the mystery of male and female, as discussed earlier (Opening 65).
