What is a rose? It is the Assembly of Israel, meaning Malchut (Introduction of The Book of Zohar, “The Rose”).

A rose is an external equivalence to the assembly of souls, and a more internal quality is the connection of all who wish to come together and direct themselves to the Creator. That is why they are called Israel, Isra-El—meaning. straight to the Creator. Thus, they draw closer to each other in order to rise closer to the Creator with their properties of kindness and connection.

Knesset is from the word “Kinus.” “assembly.” Israel is Yashar Kel, meaning those who are directed at the Creator. Malchut is the lowest, but at the same time the most defining part of society.

The connection between souls at the lowest level, which can rise to the highest level, is called Malchut. That is, it is our connection based on the most basic, most egoistic desires.
