    Pereq II

    Mishnah 1. Twenty-and-two letters of foundation: three mothers, seven duplex, and twelve simple ones—three mothers their foundation the scale of merit and the scale of guilt, and the tongue of statute trembling (deciding) between them. (This, to be mystically carried out, in its development, and application to all things: the elements, man, &c.)LTJMBA 67.2

    Mishnah 2. Twenty-two letters of foundation: He drew them, hewed them, weighed them, and interchanged them, melted them together (showing how in the permutation of letters all words—viewed mystically as the designation of things—arose), He formed by them the nephesh of all that is formed (created), and the nephesh of everything that is to be formed (created).LTJMBA 67.3

    Mishnah 3. Two-and-twenty letters of foundation: drawn in the voice, hewn in the wind (air, spirit?) fastened on the mouth in five places: hx(the gutturals among the Hebrew letters), Pmwb (the labials), qkyg (the palatals), tnl+d (the linguals), Cr#sz (the dentals).LTJMBA 67.4

    Mishnah 4. Twenty-two letters of foundation, fastened in a circle in 231 gates (marking how these letters are capable of forming, by the permutation of two of them, in all 231 permutations); and the circle turns forwards and backwards, and this is the indication of the matter: as regards what is good, there is nothing higher than gn(oneg), delight and nothing lower than hgn (negah), plague’ (stroke). In such manner He weighed them and combined them, with them all, and them all with with them all, and them all with b with them all, and them all with b, and thus the rest, so that it is found that all that is formed and all that is spoken proceeds from one Name (the name of God being, as it were, the fundamental origin of everything).LTJMBA 67.5

    Mishnah 5. He formed from Tohu that which has substance, and made that which is not into being, and hewed great pillars from the air, which cannot be handled; and this is the indication: beholding and speaking He made all that is formed and all words by one Name—and the indication of the matter: twenty-two numbers and one body.LTJMBA 68.1
