When they come out of it, etc.: When the lights come out of it, from the tree, to appear in the non-illuminating radiance, which is Malkut which includes, that from the aspect of Mahazeh and below Zeir Ainpin, in which itself there are ZON, which are the small ZON called Yaacov and Rachel. The lights sometimes settle and sometimes do not settle in it, they are found and they are not found, because they are not established anywhere else except in this tree, which is from the aspect of Mahazeh and above Zeir Ainpin, called Israel. From this tree come out the twelve tribes whose boundaries are in it, which are the twelve lights called twelve diagonal boundaries, which are clearly explained above (see folio 8, and in Parashat Vayechi, folio 46, and all the rest). And they descended in this non-illuminating radiance, to the exile in Egypt in various upper camps. This is what is said, “And these are the names,” etc.

For now it is well understood, that the scripture begins with Israel, that is, "And these are the names of the sons of Israel," because it is that the root of the lights of the twelve tribes come from the tree called Israel, that is, from Mahazeh and above Zeir Ainpin. And so also that which ends with Yaacov, which says, "Those who came from Egypt with Yaacov," because they passed from the aspect of Israel to the aspect of Yaacov, which is from Mahazeh and below Zeir Ainpin, where the twelve lights of the tribes cannot be established, as was said above. And this is "Those who came from Egypt," which is a language of narrowness, and therefore the Egyptians dominated over them. (And see further on, folio 148, and all the rest), where the very reason for the necessity of the exile in Egypt is explained.
