g where it is written, Gen. xxix. 12, "And Jacob declared unto Rachel that he was her father's brother, and that he was Rebekah's son." It is written "Rebekah's son," and not "the son of Isaac." And all the mysteries are in Chokmah.(853) And therefore is (Chokmah) called the Perfection of all; and to it is ascribed the name of Truth. And therefore is it written, "And Jacob declared," and not written, "and Jacob said." Those (two) colors are extended throughout the whole Body (of Microprosopus), and His Body cohereth with them. In the Most Holy Ancient One, the Concealed with all Concealments, (things) are not ascribed diversely, and unto Him do they not tend (diversely), since the whole is the same (with itself) and (thus is) life unto all (things); and from Him judgment dependeth not (directly). But concerning Him (Microprosopus) it is written, that unto Him are ascribed (diverse) works, properly speaking. Chapter XII: Concerning the Hair of Microprosopus From the skull of the Head (of Microprosopus) depend all those chiefs and leaders (otherwise, all those thousands and tens of thousands), and also from the locks of the hair. Which are black, and mutually bound together, and which mutually cohere. But they adhere unto the Supernal Light from the Father, AB, _Ab_, which surroundeth His Head (_i.e._, that of Microprosopus); and unto the Brain, which is illuminated from the Father. Thencefrom, even from the light which surroundeth His Head (_i.e._, that of Microprosopus) from the Mother, Aima, and from the second Brain, proceed long locks upon locks (of hair). And all adhere unto and are bound together with those locks(854) which have their connection with the Father. And because (these locks are) mutually intermingled with each other, and mutually intertwined with each other, hence all the Brains are connected with the Supernal Brain (of Macroprosopus). And hence all the regions which proceed from the Three Cavities of the Skull are mingled mutually together, as well pure as impure, and all those accents and mysteries are as well hidden as manifest. And since all the Brains have a secret connection with the ears of Tetragrammaton, in the same way as they shine in the crown of the Head, and enter into the hollow places of the Skull. Hence all these locks hang over and cover the sides of the ears, as we have elsewhere said. And therefore is it written, 2 Kings xix. 16, "Incline
