“Thou shalt not covet thy neighbors’ inheritance; blessed are the poor in spirit who come unto me, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.” –Book of the Law of the Lord 1:10/3 Nephi 5:50 RAV, 12:3 OPV
The 10 Sefirot (Hebrew for “emanations”) are the 10 attributes of God in Kabbalah, through which Ein Sof (the Everlasting name of God) reveals Himself/Themselves to humankind. There are a few different ways of using the Sefirot. Some Kabbalists study and grow from attribute to attribute, while others see them as an urim and thummim. As an urim and thummim, the right and left sides create a series of “lenses” for the natural eyes, while the center creates a series of “lenses” for the third or spiritual eye. Through this urim and thummim, God helps us see both the physical realm and the chain of higher metaphysical realms.

“And YHVH Elohim said: Behold, mankind has become like one of us, to know good and evil; and now, Father, I pray unto thee for them… that they may believe in me, that I may be in them as thou, Father, art in me, that we may be one.” –Genesis 3:22/3 Nephi 9:23 RAV, 19:23 OPV
