### sense in the lessons

In the Tanakh and Jewish tradition: In this text it is the word "covenant", cut in two by a scanning or printing break. Interpretation: The line says that a covenant has been made about the ten sefirot, which the tradition reads as a serious oath to keep their secret and contemplate them with care.

### examples

- § H The ten digits and zero — close tliy mouth from speaking and thy heart from thinking, and if tliy heart should leap, let it come back to its place; for concerning this has the coven- ant been made.
