In the secret of the snow, it became clear in the internal books that it is an expression of the degree of harsh law that is stretched over the world, in secret, the fourth hand in reality.
The snow expresses the freezing of the consciousness of the world which does not aspire to God but stands in its place with materialistic stubbornness and pride I and zero more, compared to the water which is a movement of humility and kindness, which takes the spiritual form of where they are.
Only the Israeli nation is able to raise this concealment to its highest source, to see in the depths of the snow its water element and its white color, and thus to overcome the lust for sin derived from the morally frozen materialist idealism.
Admittedly, the Ascension is not only in the ability to overcome the snow shell and overcome it, but also in understanding its place in the process of general correction of the world as a force that opposes the flow of holiness, for a completely free choice of D and the appearance of supreme uniqueness.
This ability to lift appears in Israel in which D. demanded the character to appear the Goddess in all shades of reality without restraint, always in seconds of constant escalation, without surrendering to the world of frozen material in its place -
After this clarification of the snow shell, its understanding and control, the snow is indeed able to be used for the purity of life as well, in that the coarse material is also used for the appearance of the Holy Spirit.
This step emphasizes the white element of snow, which lies in its freezing feature.
'If your sins be like years, like snow they will turn white.'
(Zohar, Ramchal).
May it be a peaceful, safe and warm Shabbat
