95) “Take away the dross from the silver, and there comes out a vessel for the smith; Take away the wicked from before the king, and his throne shall be established in mercy.” When wicked abound in the world, the throne of the Holy King—Malchut—is established in judgment, is sucked by judgment, and its flames burn the world. And when the wicked pass from the world, “his throne shall be established in mercy,” and not in judgment.
96) This means that the lower world, Malchut, depends on the upper world, ZA, and the upper world affects the lower world according to the ways of the lower world. Hence, “his throne shall be established in mercy.” This means that those who want to bless and correct their throne, which is the lower world, will correct it in mercy and not in judgment. It means that he will correct it in mercy. When the priest walks into the Temple, Malchut enters the Hesed, it enters the water, and will not enter the wine that he drank, which is Gevura.
This is so because now he revealed his intention, that Hesed and judgment, said about, “his throne shall be established in mercy,” are water and wine, Hassadim and illumination of Hochma. And the meaning of the verse, “Take away the wicked from before the king” means that extending wine, which is illumination of Hochma that is extended in judgments, removes the wicked from the world. By that, “Take away the wicked from before the king.”
And after the wicked have passed, there is no further need to extend the discernment of wine, but only Hassadim, which is water. This is so because they have already extended the wine to eradicate the wicked and the Sitra Achra, as in, “his throne shall be established in mercy,” and there is no further need to extend the discernment of wine, but only water, which is Hesed.
