ג׳ מצבי הנשמותThree States of the Souls

gimel matzvei ha-neshamotIn Gamatria ↗

What will be already shines where it began.

For the Creator, past, present and future are one, so His thought completed everything at once: the souls already stand in Ein Sof, the Infinite, in their final corrected form. There are three states. First, in Ein Sof, holding that future perfection. Second, the six thousand years, divided into body and soul and given Torah and mitzvot, in which only the souls are corrected. Third, the end of correction after the resurrection, when the bodies too receive in order to give. Each state requires the others.
