פַּ֥חַד וָפַ֖חַת וָפָ֑ח עָלֶ֖יךָ יוֹשֵׁ֥ב הָאָֽרֶץ׃
O pavor, e a cova, e o laço vêm sobre ti, ó morador da terra.
Sha'ar HaPesukim
You should know that Zelophehad is the root of the judgments [gevurot]. And that is why he has the letters tzadi, lamed peh, chet, dalet [which spells tzel pachad, the shadow of fear]. And his five daughters are the five judgments. And these are the same five judgments that remained in the Foundation [Yesod] of the Small Face [Zeir Anpin], and do not go to Kinghood [Malkhut]. Rather, other new judgments come, and are given to Kinghood, as is known. And that is why our teacher Moses, peace be upon him, was in doubt whether they had a portion and inheritance in the land, which is Kinghood. And the Holy One, blessed be He, answered him that since they shine upon Kinghood, they are fitting to take a portion in the land. So behold, of these five judgments, three are sweetened by the kindnesses [chassadim], whereas the other two are not sweetened, as is known. And behold, the three that are sweetened are Choglah, Milkhah, and Tirtzah. And the understanding of Choglah is chag lah [she has a festival], since she is sweet. Milkah's name [related to queen] is also an indication about her. Tirtzah, as well, is an expression of wanting [ratzon] and kindness. And the two that are not sweetened are Machlah and Noa. Machlah is mach lah, which is derived from the usage, And He blotted out [Vayimach] all existence (Genesis 7:23). And Noa is derived from the usage, The earth shall reel [noa] to and fro (Isaiah 24:20).
