Three and Four - Mystical Insights into the Festival of Pesach
"The Jews took the representative of the Egyptian deity, the lamb, and sprinkled its blood, its inner vitality and life force, on the doorposts as part of a Mitzvah. They meant to declare that the inner life force of the constellation Aries is solely under the jurisdiction of G-d. Nothing in existence occurs unguided by divine will."
"One difference between chametz, leavened bread, and Matzah, unleavened bread, is that chametz is inflated, while Matzah is flat. Chametz represents an inflated ego, while Matzah represents a humble spirit."
"These four Mitzvos clearly parallel the rectification of the three primary emotional Sefiros (divine attributes): Chessed (love and kindness), Gevurah (strength), Tiferes (compassion), and the Sefirah that channels and reveals those three - Malchus (speech)"
"The theme of The Four Sons thus encourages spiritual balance between the four extreme qualities within every person. This balance ensures that every quality in the human spirit fulfils its purpose in divine service without becoming corrupted."
