562) “You are not to boil a kid in its mother’s milk.” A kid is from the Sitra Achra so it will not suckle from Divinity. It should have said “In the mother’s milk”; what is “In its mother’s milk?” The Assembly of Israel, Malchut, is not the mother of the side of Tuma’a, since the Assembly of Israel is the holy mother, united on the part of Israel, as it is written, “For the portion of the Lord is His people.”
563) Ima, Malchut, united for them above to the side of Kedusha and to the side of Tuma’a, one to the right and one to the left, for in each side there are right and left. Everyone is dependent upon this mother, who is the holy mother, Malchut, and clings to her.
564) They cling to her when this mother suckles from the other side and the Temple is defiled, and the strong serpent begins to appear. At that time the kid suckles from its mother’s milk and the Dinim awaken. For this reason, Israel hurry and bring the first fruits. And when they bring them, they should say and begin with Laban, “An Aramean who destroyed my father,” who wished to rule over Jacob and the holy seed with these charms of his, but they were not given into his hand and Israel were not given to that side. For this reason, by that they remove the power of the serpent and the kid cannot suckle from its mother’s milk. This is why it is written, “You shall bring the first fruits of your soil; you are not to boil a kid in its mother’s milk,” so that that side will not suckle from its mother’s milk, Malchut, so that the Temple will not be defiled and the Dinim will not awaken.
565) For this reason all the holy seed do not eat meat in milk, as well as anyone who comes from the holy side, so as to not make room for those who do not need to, for it depends on the act, meaning that it requires an act from below to evoke above. Happier are Israel than all the idol worshipping nations because their Lord declares about them, “And the Lord has chosen you to be a people of virtue for Him.” It is also written, “For you are a holy nation to the Lord your God,” and it is written, “You are the children of the Lord your God.”
566) When the works of Israel are not good, it is written, “My people! Their oppressors are children, and women rule over them.” Anyone who eats a dish of meat and of milk within the same hour or the same meal, when they join together, it is as though he ate meat together with milk. For forty days, a kid is seen roasting with its skin, grilled in its entirety, as one, with its head, for those of above, and the company of Tuma’a approaches with it, causing the arousal of unholy Dinim in the world.
567) If he begets a son during these days, it is lent a soul from the other side, which does not need him because she defiles him. It is written, “And you shall be sanctified and be holy, and you shall not defile your souls.” He who comes to defile is defiled, as it is written, “That you should be defiled in them,” without an Aleph, which is more blocked Tuma’a than all the impurities, since he has no permission to be purified like the rest of the impurities, which are purified. Moreover, for fear of evil beasts, it seemed to them like a kid and could harm because man’s image has moved away from him.
568) Rabbi Yisa permitted eating chicken with cheese or milk. Rabbi Shimon said you must not. No one should open a door to the evil kinds. “Go, go out,” the monk is told, “Around, around; do not approach the vineyard.” Of course you are forbidden, since there is the rigor of slaughtering as with a beast. It is written of one who permits it, “And you gave the Nazirites wine to drink,” for one who permits this, permits that. The flaw that is made above, it is one for them. It is written, “You shall not eat any abomination,” and “Any” comes to include everything.
569) With what were Daniel, Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah rewarded that they were saved from these trials? It is because they were not defiled in their food. It is written, “And Daniel made up his mind that he would not defile himself with the king’s choice food.” The food of the wicked Nebuchadnezzar was meat with milk and cheese with meat, in addition to other foods. But this was on his table each day.
570) Daniel kept away from it. When he was thrown into the lions’ pit, he was whole in the image of his Maker and his image did not change into another image, so the lions feared him and did not harm him. But that wicked, when the kingship has been removed from him and he dwelled with the animals of the field, the image of his face was removed from him, and since that day his image was not as an image of a man. And any beast that came, it seemed to it that he was an image of its own kind, its female, so they would all mount him. And many times the animals of the field would eat him, if not for that punishment that he was punished. It is written, “And he mocks at kings,” and for this reason everyone will mock him all that time.
571) It is written, “At the end of ten days their appearance seemed better and they were fatter than all the youths who had been eating the king’s choice food.” “Their appearance seemed better” because the image of their Maker was not removed from them, while it was removed from others, since they were not made repugnant by the repugnance of their food.
