– PRAYER OF CONCESSION ON LAST QUARTER MOON

WHAT ARE THE THREE BODIES IN A MAN

And because one does not think for those two bodies, they
die, because they have no nourishment and nothing to sustain
them, since the thoughts we think for them are their provision.
This is the meaning of “in the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat
bread.” Prior to the sin of the Tree of Knowledge, sustenance
was not dependent on the bread. That is, there was no need to
extend Light and sustenance, but it illuminated.
However, after the sin, when Adam ha Rishon had been affixed
to the serpent’s body, then life had been tied in with the bread,
meaning with nourishment that must always draw anew. And
if they are not given nourishment, they die. And this became a
great correction, in order to be saved from those two bodies.
