III1:5

עומק ראשית ועומק אחריתTen Depths Without End

omek reshit ve-omek aḥaritIn Gamatria ↗

Five pairs of infinities, held by one.

The sefirot are given a measure, "ten that have no end", arranged as five pairs of depths: beginning and end, good and evil, above and below, east and west, north and south. Time, morality and the three dimensions of space each stretch between two opposite infinities. Over all of them rules the one Master, God the faithful King, from His holy dwelling forever. Here the sefirot are less heavenly beings than the axes of an unbounded reality. Each depth is limitless, yet one rules them all.
