Mitigation (remission) of punishment (sentence)/commutation)

Reduce the severity of the judgment. Lighten the punishment (Source: The sweetening of the law or the sweetening of the laws means in the books of Kabbalah the reduction of the words of the calamity that exists against man or the people of Israel. The laws are those that are the calamities of their kind).

("And this is the matter of the return in the torture of the body with chains to sweeten the law to the low, and the contempt of the breaking of the power of the chains to the high" - Panim Yafot in the beginning of Matthew 17, and so: "When there is, mercy and peace, laws upon Israel, upon the hands of dancers and the shaking of hands, the sweetness of the laws will be made" - R. Nachman of Breslau/ Likutei Moharan, Torah 10:1, and so on: "Aba would descend to Pithom...to sweeten there "the judgments" - Byalik/ The short one was ashamed, 2, Kala)
