“Present” p:72(15)

AyinBase / Ayin Beis with R' Paltiel 12 Kislev 5775 


Page 72(15)

Near top of the page – (line begins: 'hamuphlah...') For text see below.

A human being occupies his home by virtue of his presence. By means of his essence. A man's home his under his domain. Even without a word it is his home. On what basis? On the basis of light/ohr.

This is because God has assigned the world to the human being. To reflect Him. Man's quality is not that of the created, but of the Creator.


The human being has the divine mandate to capture the world and develop it. And man's jurisdiction over the world is not due to any action on his part. It is due to Godly action. The world was made in such a way that the human being is its owner. The human being complements the world and puts it in a category of reality.

Man represents a Godly presence in the world.

That man owns the world by God's decree is in the category of 'essential'. This means that it is not a procedural relationship. His presence automatically transforms the world.
