  I'm struggling with the word residue. If I understand, a residual energy was left that manifests itself in the spark(s) of creation? Or remained or were necessary for the spark(s) of creation?

  I became somewhat lost in the infinite v finite. I will watch again.

  Thank you Rabbi YY. Your methodolgoy for teaching is illuminating.

  I'm older and am struggling with learning Hebrew. Would there perhaps be even Hebrew English transliteration text available to coincide with the lectures. And thank you again.

    Okay. Infinite v finite. As I contemplate further ... Hashem is infinite; there are no bounds which characteristically or categorically confine Hashem to a single definition, entity, space or representation.

    I hope I'm getting closer. I had to stop the video and go over it again...

    As Hashem withdrew himself from creation, it was necessary that spark(s) of Him remained or we would not be his. I'm kind of thinking of the idea that our energies bend space and time and once there we cannot be not there, so to speak, like the butterfly effect. But also, Hashem's energy had to remain to allow for creation to occur. Now, Hashem as an infinite was restrained in the acts of creation leaving only sparks of divine energy - so to speak - leaving finite particles/ essence of Hashem.

  Thank you, rabbi Jacobson, for unbelievable clarity for these important and difficult concepts. I had some general ideas what is kav and reshima, and it was some kind of confusion in my head. After this class these concepts became clear. I watched it 3 times and each time was very enjoyable.

  The finitude of the keli is also infinite Elokus

  So, is a lifeless wing of a fly as much Elokus as the Ain Sof?
