קבלה אויף יחזקאל 33:24

HaShem’s-יהו"ה quality of kindness-Chessed above therefore declared, “I preceded the world with My quality of kindness, and was singular in the world. Here is Avraham who is singular in the world⁴²See Ezekiel 33:24 and elsewhere. and precedes Me with the quality of kindness-Chessed. It therefore is fitting that Avraham adheres to Me and I adhere to him.”⁴³Midrash Tanchuma, Chayei Sarah 2 and elsewhere. About this the verse states,⁴⁴Micah 7:20 “Give truth to Yaakov, kindness-Chessed-חסד to Avraham.”

What is the reason? Because, when upon the sin of Adam, the first man, Your Indwelling Presence withdrew, it did not have any fixed place. Our forefather Avraham, peace be upon him, established its place upon his shoulders, and because of this Daniel said,¹⁴⁴Daniel 9:17 “For the sake of the Lord-Adona”y-אדנ״י,” meaning,¹⁴⁵Talmud Bavli, Brachot 7b “For the sake of the forefather, who was the first to called You ‘Lord-Adon-אדון,’” referring to Avraham. Thus, our forefather Avraham was able to adorn the Sefirah of Kingship-Malchut and unify HaShem-יהו״ה, blessed is He, in the world. This is the secret of the verse,¹⁴⁶Ezekiel 33:24 “Avraham was One-Echad-אחד, and he inherited the land-Aretz-ארץ.” That is, because he was unified and one-Echad-אחד in all his limbs, in unifying HaShem-יהו״ה, blessed is He, and declaring His Name in the world, and he established a place to teach and publicize His Kingship, he therefore was able to unify HaShem-יהו״ה, blessed is He.
