A RESPONSE TO THE KABBALISTIC PRINCIPLE
That The Female Is Higher Than The Male In The Rectification
Kabbalah
Primordial Forces
The Ayn Sof is the never changing ultimate anti-reality. As such, it can be called passive. Creation on the other hand is dynamic and ever-changing. As such, it can be called active. Passive and active, are the two primordial forces in existence. One seeks movement, the other seeks stillness.
Metaphorically speaking, the passive elements in creation are called Female and the active elements are called Male.
In Creation, the place of the female is always one step higher than that of the male. This order was reversed due to the breaking of the Vessels and the corresponding sin of Adam.
This is why the majority of believers preparing to return to the original estate of the creation today, are female.
Why, Then, Would Jesus And The Apostles All Be Males, If Women Are To Be Higher Than Males In The World To Come?
2000 years ago was not the appointed time for humanity to return to the exalted first estate of the creation. Messiah (Jesus) and the Apostles were male because their ministries manifested in this world, rather than in the World To Come.
Male (Active) And Female (Passive) According To
Christ-Centered Kabbalah
The worlds are a "mirror image" of the Ayn Sof and, accordingly, reciprocal laws apply. Passivity is a feminine quality in the worlds, and action is a male quality. But the Ayn Sof is not subject to the law of a differentiated creation.
The passivity of the Ayn Sof arises out of of the absolute integration of passivity and action manifested as "the simple Light of the Ayn Sof."
The passivity of the fallen creation is weakness in relation to to the strength of action.
The passivity of the Ayn Sof is the cessation of conflict.
The passivity of the creation is repressed conflict, which can bubble to the surface at any time.
The masculine action of creation is one manifested aspect of the integrated Ayn Sof.
There is no marriage or giving in marriage in heaven. Neither will there be sexuality as we now know it, because each member of restored mankind will be both male and female.
The body and emotions are female, but the mind of Christ and the rectified personality are male.
Some kabbalists believe that the female will be higher than the male in the rectification because SaG, the female/Mother aspect of the
Heavenly Constellation within the individual, is in front (of Keter and Chokhmah), the male Sefirot which are closest in nature to the Ayn Sof.
It is inaccurate to conclude that the female will be higher
than the male in the rectification because SaG (Mother) is higher than MaH (Ze'irAnpin/Christ Jesus), because the true, albeit concealed male force of the creation, Keter enclothed within Chokhmah, is hidden behind the active SaG.
The active male, Mah, the Son of Chokhmah and Binah, is subordinate to the active female SaG, His Mother, only in the REVEALED CREATION.
The true male, active strength of the creation is the passive strength of the integrated Ayn Sof, which is woven together with the higher grades of the concealed Keter.
So we see that the passivity of the concealed, integrated whole is the true active male strength of the revealed creation; and that the action of the female SaG, through her Son (Ze'ir Anpin/Christ Jesus), in creation (which arises out of the separation from the integrated whole) is, in fact, female in relation to the integrated whole.
Wherefore, the action of the revealed creation is female in relation to the male integrated passivity of the higher grades of the Keter. Accordingly, neither passivity nor action in the revealed creation can ever be male in relation to the integrated whole of the Keter's highest grades.
The Mother (SaG) reveals herself through union with Malchut, the dauhter, and through her relationship with the Mother, Malchut ascends to the place of the third Sefirot (Binah/Mother), which is above the Son (Ze'ir Anpin/Christ Jesus/MaH). This is why Many kabbalists say that the female will be greater than the male in the rectification.
But male authority over the female will never be reversed in God.
The Father, who is joined to the Keter above Him, will join with the Son below Him; and, just as Malchut, the Daughter, will ascend to the throne of her Mother in the world to come, Ze'ir Anpin, the Son, will ascend to the throne of His Father, from where the Son will rule and reign over all creation.
Wherefore, the activity of the Mother and the Daughter will be under the male authority of the Son in the world to come.
Wherefore the subordination of the male to the female is an illusion which is indigenous to the revealed creation alone,
The Father, who is attached to the Keter above, is in all of the Sefirot (Ze'ir Anpin, the Son, and Nukva, the Daughter, both emanate from Father and Mother), and is over all of the Sefirot, including the female SaG.
This very error, of failing to perceive the over-all dominion and penetration of the concealed Completeness into the revealed creation, is the foundation of the Babylonian worship of the mother and infant child.
God bless you all.
