Torah, Deuteronomy 27:11 – 27:13: And Moses commanded the people on that day, saying, When you cross the Jordan, the following shall stand upon Mount Gerizim to bless the people: Simeon, Levi, Judah, Issachar, Joseph, and Benjamin. And the following shall stand upon Mount Ebal for the curse: Reuben, Gad, Asher, Zebulun, Dan, and Naftali.

The separation of the tribes into two parts (six and six) means the right and left lines.

All tribes are going to conquer the land of Israel, even those two that must stay outside Jordan. Why do they join everyone else even though to correct in the future they must create the right intention on the territory outside of Israel called “beyond Jordan”?

Because this territory also belongs to Israel, but it is attached to it from outside, so to speak. After all, all countries that are close to Israel, including Lebanon, Syria, Jordan, and Babylon, are related to King David’s conquests (corrections), and therefore, they were included in the land of Israel.

It goes without saying that no one claims these lands from a material point of view. We are only talking about a state that corresponds to the human soul’s inner geography.

Question: According to which properties did Moses divide the tribes into six and six?

Answer: These are: Hesed, Gevura, Tifferet, Netzah, Hod, and Yesod. In the same way that there are six days of week that are divided into day and night, there are tribes that relate to the state of day and those that relate to the state of night. Some of them we bless and others—curse.

However, the tribes that we curse are not egoistic. On the contrary, they work so well that they can make corrections through their curses, that is, through the expression of even greater egoistic desires.

It is enough for us to understand that we always speak about an egoistic desire within us, which needs to be turned into an altruistic desire. And in accordance with this, one will begin to feel completely different movements, properties, and actions within this desire. One will start to rise above time and space, and this is how one will proceed.

Question: At each stage of a person’s progress more egoism is added to him and he must cover it with the right line. Does it mean that the six tribes must balance the ego?

Answer: All tribes work in unison creating a middle line between them.

In our state, the middle line is already the Creator. It is created in the right correlation of the right line to the left and the left line to the right. The upper force, called the Creator, is the combination of both lines, which occurs from above, and above them, in the middle line.
