Prior to the sin of the tree of knowledge, vitality was not dependent on the bread. That is, there was no need to extend light and vitality, but it illuminated (Baal HaSulam. Shamati 36 “What Are the Three Bodies in Man?”).

Question: What does it mean to extend vitality?

Answer: Before working with the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil, there is no way to be in connection with good and evil in order to perform actions between them to separate, distance them from each other, and put ourselves in the middle.

Question: Can we distinguish this vitality in the ten?

Answer: No. In the ten, we must act in such a way as to work with the inner body, i.e., with what concerns holiness (Guf de Kedusha), separate from Klipat Noga, what we can separate, and adhere to the inner body of holiness. And what we are not yet able to correct, we do not touch.
