Kabbalah sa Awit ng mga Awit 5:15: Sha'arei Orah & Idra Zuta

Know now, that corresponding to this Divine quality, King Solomon built the second pillar in the Holy Temple, and called its name Bo’az-בועז. That is, there were two pillars in the Holy Temple, called Yachin-יכין and Bo’az-בועז.⁸⁶Kings I 7:21 – “He erected the right pillar and called its name Yachin-יכין-established, and he erected the left pillar and called its name Bo’az-בועז-strength is in it.” (Yachin-יכין corresponds to the positive commandments and Bo’az-בועז corresponds to the negative commandments.) This matter is hinted at in the verse,⁸⁷Song of Songs 5:15 “His legs-Shokav-שוקיו are like marble pillars (Amudei Sheish-עמודי שש), founded (Meyusadim-מיוסדים) in sockets-Adnei-אדני of fine gold.” The word, “His legs-Shokav-שוקיו,” refers to these two qualities of victory-Netzach and majesty-Hod, which are the matter of HaShem God of Hosts-HaShem Elohi”m Tzva’ot-יהו״ה אלהי״ם צבאו״ת. They are the pillars that uphold the Sefirot, corresponding to which Solomon made the two pillars, Yachin-יכין and Bo’az-בועז.

Everyone is waiting for this mouth with a tongue speaking great words. The tongue is the central column that unites the two columns that are the two lips with a crowning bright knot, that is, with a knot and union of the lights with the central column. It crowns them and makes them bright; for the tongue that is the central column makes clear the lights in the two columns in the lips and completes them. It is written of this, “His mouth is most sweet” (Shir Hashirim 5:15), surely, after the central column combined them with each other. His mouth is similar to, “the palate tastes food” (Iyov 24:3): after the inclusion of right and left, they become good and flavorful. “…and he is altogether lovely” (Shir Hashirim 5:15) refers to the two columns, left and right, that are called fire and water. Fire and water are beautiful, lovely and well fashioned, that is, they are lovely to behold, since the colors red and white, which are left and right, are joined together, that is, beauty appears only from the blending of white and red together.
