In Tekia it's a long voice of melody/music (NGN), until it reaches His "right side" which is Chesed. In Shevarim it rises in a melodious voice to Gevurah, where there's Y"H on right and left, and descends from it in good cheer (ChDWH), Chokhmah and wealth, as they've established, "Whoever wants to get wise should go south, and to get rich go north." In Terua it arises in a melodious voice to the Central Pillar, and the King descends from it to the (daf 52b) Bride which is a fine voice of whisper. Then all kinds of melody are stimulated, behold it's the scripture (Ps. 150:3), "Praise Him with the Teka (blast of) Shofar, praise Him with the psalter (NBL) and harp (KNOR), praise Him with the timbrel and dance, praise Him with the stringed instruments (Minim) and pipe, praise Him with the loud-sounding cymbals (SLSLY SMA); praise Him with the clanging cymbals (SLSLH TRUAH)."
בַּתְּקִיעָה הוּא קָלָא אָרוּךְ בְּנִגּוּנָא, עַד דַּהֲוָה סָלִיק לֵיהּ לְגַבֵּי יְמִינָא דְאִיהוּ חֶסֶד, בַּשְּׁבָרִים הֲוָה סָלִיק קָלָא דְנִגּוּנָא לְגַבֵּי גְבוּרָה, דְתַמָּן י"ה בִּימִינָא וּשְׂמָאלָא, וַהֲוָה נָחִית מִנֵּיהּ בְּחֶדְוָה חָכְמָתָא וְעוּתְרָא, כְּמָה דְאוּקְמוּהוּ הָרוֹצֶה לְהַחְכִּים יַדְרִים, לְהַעֲשִׁיר יַצְפִּין, בִּתְרוּעָה הֲוָה סָלִיק קָלָא דְנִגּוּנָא לְגַבֵּי עַמּוּדָא דְאֶמְצָעִיתָא, וַהֲוָה נָחִית מִנֵּיהּ מַלְכָּא לְגַבֵּי (דף נב ע"א) כַּלָּה דְאִיהִי קוֹל דְּמָמָה דַקָּה, בְּהַהוּא זִמְנָא יִתְעָרוּן כָּל מִינֵי נִגּוּנָא, הֲדָא הוּא דִכְתִיב (תהלים קנ, ג) הַלְלוּהוּ בְּתֵקַע שׁוֹפָר, הַלְלוּהוּ בְּנֵבֶל וְכִנּוֹר, הַלְלוּהוּ בְּתוֹף וּמָחוֹל, הַלְלוּהוּ בְּמִינִים וְעוּגָב, הַלְלוּהוּ בְּצִלְצְלֵי שָׁמַע, הַלְלוּהוּ בְּצִלְצְלֵי תְרוּעָה.
Shofar is the Upper Shekhinah. Its Teka (blast) is the Lower Shekhinah, of which it says (Gen. 32:26), "And he seized (TKA) Yaakob's thigh" - in exile. At that time he rises out of exile in Shofar Gadol. This is called, "Blast the Shofar Gadol for our liberation."
שׁוֹפָר אִיהִי שְׁכִינְתָּא עִלָּאָה, תְּקַע דִּילָהּ שְׁכִינְתָּא תַּתָּאָה, דְּאִתְּמַר בָּהּ (בראשית לב, כו) וַתֵּקַע כַּף יֶרֶךְ יַעֲקֹב בְּגָלוּתָא, בְּהַהוּא זִמְנָא סָלְקָא מִן גָּלוּתָא בַשּׁוֹפָר גָּדוֹל, וְאִתְקְרִיאַת תְּקַע בְּשׁוֹפָר גָּדוֹל לְחֵרוּתֵנוּ.
BNB"L (with the psalter) - B"N L"B - at that time B"N (52) rises to the Palace which is L"B (32), of which it says (Prov. 15:16), "and he that has a good/merry heart (LB) has a constant drinking celebration." And that which is said at the beginning (Gen. 6:6), "And it agrieved His heart" because of the wicked, as soon as they are annihilated it will be fulfilled in Him (Prov. 11:10), "but when the wicked are annihilated, shouts of joy." KNOR - K"O(26) N"R(lamp) - the Holy Blessed One, namely YKW"K, as it says of Him (Ps. 27:1), "Hashem is my light and salvation" - shining in N"R which is the Shekhinah; His miswah and rejoicing in it.
בְּנֵבֶ"ל, בֶּ"ן לֵ"ב, בְּהַהוּא זִמְנָא בֶּ"ן יֵעוּל לְהֵיכָלֵיהּ דְּאִיהוּ לֵ"ב, וְאִתְּמַר בֵּיהּ (משלי טו, טו) וְטוֹב לֵב מִשְׁתֶּה תָמִיד, וּמַה דְּאִתְּמַר בְּקַדְמֵיתָא (בראשית ו, ו) וַיִּתְעַצֵּב אֶל לִבּוֹ בְּגִין חַיָּיבַיָּא, מִיָּד דְּאִתְאֲבִידוּ אִתְקַיַּים בֵּיהּ וּבַאֲבֹד רְשָׁעִים רִנָּה (משלי יא, י), כִּנּוֹר, כ"ו נ"ר, קוּדְשָׁא בְּרִיךְ הוּא דְאִיהוּ יהו"ה, דְּאִתְּמַר בֵּיהּ (תהלים כז, א) יהו"ה אוֹרִי וְיִשְׁעִי, נָהִיר בְּנֵ"ר דְּאִיהִי שְׁכִינְתָּא, מִצְוָה דִילֵיהּ, וְחָדֵי בָהּ.
SLSLY SMA - Chesed and Gevura. SLSLY TRUAH - Netzach and Hod. In all of them, "Let all that hath breath praise Y"H" which is Chokhmah and Binah, as in them there will be Redemption L"W and L"H (to "Him" and "Her," to W and to H), which are Ben and Bat. And in them will the Amalekim be wiped out of the world. So this is Sof Pasuk.
צִלְצְלֵי שָׁמַע חֶסֶד גְּבוּרָה, צִלְצְלֵי תְרוּעָה נֶצַח וָהוֹד, וּבְכֻלְּהוּ כֹּל הַנְּשָׁמָה תְּהַלֵּל י"הּ, דְּאִיהוּ חָכְמָה וּבִינָה, דִּי בְהוֹן יְהֵא פוֹרְקָנָא ל"וֹ וְלָ"הּ דְּאִינוּן בֵּן וּבַת, וּבְהוֹן יִתְמַחוּן עֲמָלֵקִים מֵעָלְמָא, וְדָא אִיהוּ סוֹף פָּסוּק.
Another thing (Gen. 27:4): "And make Me tasty things such as I love" - from positive commandments, and not "such as I hate," from negative commandments. Negative commandments stem from fear of awe, and they are for distancing the Satan from them, lest they draw close to the Throne which is the Heart, to rail accusations on the "holy limbs" which are Yisrael with the Heart, the Shekhina, among them.
דָּבָר אַחֵר וַעֲשֵׂה לִי מַטְעַמִּים כַּאֲשֶׁר אָהַבְתִּי (בראשית כז, ד) מִפִּקּוּדִין דַּעֲשֵׂה, וְלָא כַאֲשֶׁר שָׂנֵאתִי מִפִּקּוּדִין דְּלֹא תַעֲשֶׂה, פִּקּוּדִין דְּלֹא תַעֲשֶׂה תַּלְיָין מִדְּחִילוּ דְיִרְאָה, וְאִינוּן לְרַחֲקָא הַשָּׂטָן מִנַּיְיהוּ, דְּלָא יִתְקַרִיב לְגַבֵּי כָּרְסַיָּא דְאִיהוּ לִבָּא, לְתַבְעָא דִינִין עַל אֵבָרִין קַדִּישִׁין דְּאִינוּן יִשְׂרָאֵל, וְלִבָּא שְׁכִינְתָּא בֵינַיְיהוּ.
The Satan is SME"L. He rules in the liver, as it says of him (Gen. 36:1), "Esau is Edom (red)." The liver's straps/vessels are his troops and camps, and the liver receives all the dirtiness and sins of the vessels, behold it's the scripture (Lev. 16:22), "And the goat will take on itself all their transgressions (AONOTM) to the jagged land" - AONOT TM - of that "Ish Tam" - to the cut land - the place of decree of the watching-angels.
הַשָּׂטָן אִיהוּ סמא"ל, שָׁלְטָנוּתָא דִילֵיהּ בְּכָבֵד, דַּעֲלֵיהּ אִתְּמַר (בראשית לו, א) עִשָׂו הוּא אֱדוֹם, עַרְקִין דְּכַבְדָּא חֲיָילִין וּמַשִּׁרְיָין דִּילֵיהּ, וְכָבֵד נָטִיל כָּל לִכְלוּכִין וְחוֹבִין דְּעַרְקִין, הֲדָא הוּא דִכְתִיב (ויקרא טז, כב) וְנָשָׂא הַשָּׂעִיר עָלָיו אֶת כָּל עֲוֹנוֹתָם אֶל אֶרֶץ גְּזֵרָה, עֲוֹנוֹת תָּם, דְּהַהוּא אִישׁ תָּם, אֶל אֶרֶץ גְּזֵרָה, אֲתַר דִּגְזֵרַת עִירִין.
Pancreas (MRH) - its sword, of it it's said (Gen. 27:40), "And by your sword you shall live." From where do we know the pancreas is the sword of the Angel of Death? It's written (Prov. 5:4), but her end is bitter (MRH) like wormwood, sharp like a double edged sword." She is life to the liver, and poison to the heart. The pancreas is Gehenom, and she has two mouths/edges that say, "Give me, give me," behold it's the scripture (Ibid. 30:15), "The horseleech has two daughters: 'Give, give,'" two daughters that say, "Give wicked people for Genehom."
מָרָה חַרְבָּא דִילֵיהּ, עֲלָהּ אִתְּמַר (בראשית כז, מ) וְעַל חַרְבְּךָ תִּחְיֶה, וּמְנָא לָן דְּמָרָה אִיהִי חַרְבָּא דְמַלְאַךְ הַמָּוְת, דִּכְתִיב (משלי ה, ד) וְאַחֲרִיתָהּ מָרָה כַלַּעֲנָה חַדָּה כְּחֶרֶב פִּיּוֹת, אִיהִי חַיִּים לְכָבֵד, וְסַם הַמָּוְת לְלִבָּא, מָרָה אִיהִי גֵיהִנָּם, וְאִית לָהּ תְּרֵי פִיּוֹת דְּאָמְרִין הַב הַב, הֲדָא הוּא דִכְתִיב שם ל טו לַעֲלוּקָה שְׁתֵּי בָנוֹת הַב הַב, שְׁתֵּי בָנוֹת דְּאָמְרִין הַב חַיָּיבִין לְגֵיהִנָּם.
There are seventy ligaments in the liver, corresponding to the seventy ministers [of the nations]. Liver and its appendage, 72. Its appendage is the Serpent, whorish woman, since his (her) camps pick up the spleen which is darkness. Of this it's said (Gen. 1:4), "And darkness He called night," as her rule is in the exile which is night, and in the exile a time endures for him, as she's LYLY"T the mother of the Erev Rav, and she is (Eccl. 7:6) "the fool's laughter" (elsewhere: spleen's), and because of her it's said (Job 7:9), "As the cloud is consumed and vanisheth away, so he that goeth down to the grave shall come up no more."
שַׁבְעִין עַרְקִין אִינוּן בְּכַבְדָּא, לָקֳבֵל שַׁבְעִין מְמַנָּן, כָּבֵד וְיוֹתֶרֶת ע"ב, יוֹתֶרֶת דִּילֵיהּ אִיהִי נָחָשׁ אֵשֶׁת זְנוּנִים, בְּגִין דְּשִׁיּוּרִין דִּילֵיהּ ( דילה) נַטְלָא טְחוֹל דְּאִיהוּ חֹשֶׁךְ, וַעֲלָהּ אִתְּמַר (בראשית א, ד) וְלַחֹשֶׁךְ קָרָא לָיְלָה, דְּשָׁלְטָנוּתָהּ בְּגָלוּתָא דְאִיהוּ לַיְלָה, וּבְגָלוּתָא שַׁעִִתָּא קַיְימָא לֵיהּ, דְּאִיהִי לִילִי"ת אִימָּא דְעִרֶב רַב, וְאִיהִי שְׂחוֹק הַכְּסִיל (ס"א: הטחול), וּבְגִינָהּ אִתְּמַר (איוב ז, ט) כָּלָה עָנָן וַיֵּלַךְ כֵּן יוֹרֵד שְׁאוֹל לֹא יַעֲלֶה.
So this is "swallowing the one who is more righteous than he," for the wicked is definitely a fool - of this it's said (Hab. 1:13), "Why do You observe the treacherous, and remain silent while the wicked swallows the one who is more righteous than he?" - and the Mishna masters established: "More righteous than him" he swallows, but a complete Tzaddik he cannot swallow, and on account of him it's said (Shmuel I 2:6), "It descends to Sheol and comes back up." Woe to the Neshama when the spleen swallows it! Woe to Yisrael when they're swallowed by the Erev Rav, of whom it's said (Gen. 41:21), "And it could not be recognized that they went inside them, so did they appear as before."
וְדָא אִיהוּ צַדִּיק מִמֶּנּוּ בּוֹלֵעַ, דְּרָשָׁע וַדַּאי דְּאִיהוּ כְּסִיל, עֲלֵיהּ אִתְּמַר (חבקוק א, יג) לָמָּה תַבִּיט בּוֹגְדִים תַּחֲרִישׁ בְּבַלַּע רָשָׁע צַדִּיק מִמֶּנּוּ, וְאוּקְמוּהוּ מָארֵי מַתְנִיתִין, צַדִּיק מִמֶּנּוּ בּוֹלֵעַ אֲבָל צַדִּיק גָּמוּר אֵינוֹ בּוֹלֵעַ, וּבְגִינֵיהּ אִתְּמַר (ש"א ב, ו) מוֹרִיד שְׁאוֹל וַיָּעַל, וַוי לְנִשְׁמָתָא כַד בָּלַע לָהּ טְחוֹל, וַוי לְיִשְׂרָאֵל כַּד אִתְבַּלְעוּ בְּעִרֶב רַב, דַּעֲלַיְיהוּ אִתְּמַר (בראשית מא, כא) וְלֹא נוֹדַע כִּי בָאוּ אֶל קִרְבֶּנָה, וּמַרְאֵיהֶן רַע כַּאֲשֶׁר בַּתְּחִלָּה.
