the two pillars, and the bowls, and the two capitals which were on the top of the pillars; and the two networks to cover the two bowls of the capitals that were on the top of the pillars;
Sha'arei Orah
The verse thus states,232Chronicles II 4:12 “Two pillars, the two bowls and crowns that were on top of the pillars, the two nettings to cover the two bowls of the crowns that were on top of the pillars.” These hints are explained as follows: “The Two pillars-Amudim-עמודים” refer to victory-Netzach-נצח and majesty-Hod-הוד. The “two bowls-Gulot-גולות and crowns-Kotarot-כותרות that were on top of the pillars,” refer to greatness-Gedulah and might-Gevurah. The “two nettings-Svachot-שבכות to cover the two bowls of the crowns that were on top of the pillars,” refer to wisdom-Chochmah and understanding-Binah. Know, that through these two pillars, and through the Living God-E”l Chai-א״ל חי, the souls called Neshamot, Ruchot, and Nefeshot,233That is, Neshamot from wisdom-Chochmah and understanding-Binah, and Ruchot from magnanimity-Gedulah and might-Gevurah, and Nefashot from victory-Netzach and majesty-Hod. flow forth in the mystery of being drawn down in their conduits.
