Abraham—The First Jew

740.03Question: Kabbalah is a system of correction. What does the correction of Abraham’s low Aviut (coarseness) have to do with us?

Answer: The system of correcting the desire to receive was not brought to us by Abraham but by Moses.

Abraham brought us only the connection of man with the Creator. That is why he is called the first Jew (Yehudi), because he was the first to achieve unity (Yehud) with the Creator, from concealment to revelation.

Before him there were people who were in sensation without concealment. We call them the “generations of sinners:” from Adam to Noah and from Noah to Abraham. Abraham is their consequence.

But in those days, no Aviut was manifested that would give a person concealment and craving to start searching from within themselves. Abraham was the first.
