Ézéchiel 47:12 Cabale : Peri Etz Hadar & Sha'arei Orah

“Its fruit is food and its leaves a source of healing.“⁶⁴Ezek. 47:12. So on this day, the beginning of Your deeds concerning [the trees’] budding and renewal, “a person will earn with its fruit…,”⁶⁵Song of Songs 8:11. “producing fruit after its kind.“⁶⁶Gen. 1:11. For so the days of budding will be full for the fruit of the supernal tree, “the tree of life which is in the midst of the garden“⁶⁷Gen. 2:9. and it makes fruit above.

Additionally, since this is so of the Sefirah of Understanding-Binah, it also is called the Expansiveness of the River-Rechovot HaNahar-רחובות הנהר, since it is an unlimited place and there is no accuser to restrain or obstruct the bestowal of goodness. Whoever merits to be entrenched and implanted in these places while in this world, “his fruit shall not cease and his leaves shall not wither.”¹⁷⁹See Ezekiel 47:12 Why? Because, “He will be like a tree planted near water, which spreads out its roots along a brook and does not see when heat comes, whose foliage is ever fresh; it will not worry in a year of drought and will not stop producing fruit.” The reason that “it does not see when heat comes” and the like, is because there is no obstruction, accuser, or withholding in this place, since it entirely transcends the place of the seventy ministering angels. It therefore is called Expansiveness-Rechovot-רחובות, and about this the verse states,¹⁸⁰Samuel II 22:20 “He brought me out into an expansive space-Merchav-מרחב.” Understand this very well.
