However, it remains to be explained why the lack of the opacity of the vessel of Malkhut in the partition, which is the fourth level, leads to a lack of the light of Keter and, likewise, why the lack of the opacity of the vessel of Tiferet in the partition leads to a lack of the light of Ḥokhma, and so on. One would have thought that the opposite would be the case, that the lack of the opacity of the vessel of Malkhut in the partition, which is the fourth level, would lead only to a lack of the light of Malkhut in the structure of vessels and lights so that it should contain the four lights of Keter, Ḥokhma, Bina, and Tiferet.
Similarly, the lack of the two vessels of the third level and the fourth level would lead to the lack of the lights of Tiferet and Malkhut, so that the structure should contain the three lights of Keter, Ḥokhma, and Bina, and so on and so forth in this manner (see section #20# above).
