It is explained from this that the Holy One, blessed be He, who is called "Eternal" (Atik), revealed Himself to Rabbi Shimon in his study hall in the form of an elderly sage. That is why Rabbi Shimon called him "Saba d'Seban," meaning the elder of elders, as mentioned earlier in the name of Derech Emet and Makdish Melech. And the Holy One, blessed be He, who is referred to as "Eternal," allowed Rabbi Shimon to reveal the secrets of the Torah.
It is the Holy One, blessed be He, who is called "Mother" (Imma), who said to the Holy One, blessed be He, who is called "Father" (Abba), "Let us make man in our image, in our likeness," and so on. So, it has been clarified for you that He is called "Eternal" (Atik) by Rabbi Shimon, and also "Father" (Abba), and he calls the "Mother" (Imma) God, and he also calls the "Father" (Abba) God, as well as the "Eternal" (Atik).
And in every act of creation in Genesis, the Father (Abba) says to the Mother (Imma), "Let it be this way," and she does it. But in the statement, "Let us make man," the Mother (Imma) said to the Father (Abba), "Let us make man," but the Father (Abba) did not agree with the creation of man. And the Mother (Imma) said to him, "What difference does it make to you? If he sins against me, it is my concern, not yours," as it is stated, "A wise son brings joy to his father, but a foolish son brings grief to his mother."
And when Adam sinned with the Tree of Knowledge, He expelled both him and her, as it is said, "For your transgressions, your mother was sent away."
