הגדרה (אנגלית)

In the question: He humiliated him greatly. He despised him.

("For the LORD has brought down the inhabitants of the high places of the city, he has brought them down to the ground, he has brought them down to the dust" - Isaiah 25:5, and so: "Even though he understands and understands with his mind the greatness of the Lord, he does not grasp and cling to all this in his mind, so that he is able to rule over the materiality of the heart from the heat of its materiality and its coarseness, and the cause is coarseness. The shell that exalts its power over the holy light of the divine soul and hides and darkens its light. And for this reason, it is necessary to humble it and to humble it to the dust. We have decided at times to humble its power to be despised in its eyes" - Tanya Likutei Amarim, Chapter 29)
