Further to our discussion of the interconnections between MaH and BaN, let us now examine how they are arranged.

There are two parts to this proposition. Part 1: The joining... This is a premise relating to the connection of MaH and BaN. Part 2: Accordingly... This is the corollary of the above premise.

Part 1: The joining of MaH and BaN through these interconnections... If MaH and BaN were merely linked directly, each Sefirah of the one being joined with the corresponding Sefirah of the other, Keter with Keter, Chochmah with Chochmah etc. on every level of the interior and encompassing lights and all the vessels, interior and exterior in both cases, then all we would need to understand about this matter is that every level has to be a composite of MaH and BaN. However, this is not the way they are connected. For while the Partzufim of Atzilut are all a composite of MaH and BaN, the respective Sefirot of MaH and BaN in each case are not parallel to one another. Rather, there is a unique arrangement – as is evident from the order in which the Partzufim were sorted and purified – that governs the way MaH and BaN are combined in each of the different Partzufim. The fact that there is a unique arrangement shows that there is a particular purpose here which goes beyond what we would have expected had the connection been direct.
