Daf 26a — amud 51 of 295 — 21 segments

Segment 1א׳

אוֹלְפִין רָזָא, דְּאִינוּן ח' חוּטִין לְכָל סְטַר, לָקֳבֵל אַרְבַּע אַנְפִּין וְאַרְבַּע גַּדְפִין דְּכָל חַיָּה, וּבְחֻשְׁבַּן זְעִיר דַּחֲנוֹךְ אָ"ז אִיהוּ שד"י, אָז יָשִׁיר בְּכָל אֲתַר, וְאָמְרוּ מָארֵי מַתְנִיתִין, כָּל מָאן דְּפָחִית לָא יִפְחוֹת מִשֶּׁבַע, וְכָל מָאן דְּאוֹסִיף לָא יוֹסִיף עַל י"ג,

teach us this secret, which is that the eight strings on each side correspond to the four faces and four wings of each Chayah. And according to the small count of Chanokh, Az (the introductory word to the Song at the Sea) is (the numerical equivalent of) the Omnipresent. Az (So) it will sing in every place. And the masters of the Mishnah taught, "Anyone who reduces [the coils] should not reduce [them to] less than seven; and anyone who increases [them] should not increase [them to] more than thirteen."

Segment 2ב׳

וְאִינוּן שֶׁבַע לָקֳבֵל שֶׁבַע יְמֵי בְרֵאשִׁית, דִּרְמִיזִין לְשֶׁבַע שְׁמָהָן אבגית"ץ וכו', וַעֲלַיְיהוּ אִתְּמַר (ישעיה ו ב) שְׁרָפִים עוֹמְדִים מִמַּעַל לוֹ שֵׁשׁ כְּנָפַיִם שֵׁשׁ כְּנָפַיִם לְאֶחָד, דִּבְהוֹן פָּרְחַת צְלוֹתָא לְעִילָא,

Those seven correspond to the days of creation, which hint to the seven names [in the forty-two letter name found in the initials of (the prayer,) Ana BeKoach], alef, bet, gimmel, yod, tav, tsaddi, etc. It is said about them (Isaiah 6:2), "Seraphs stood above him; each one had six wings" - through which prayer flies upwards.

Segment 3ג׳

וְאִנּוּן תַּמָּן מ"ב, לָקֳבֵל מ"ב אַזְכָּרוֹת דְּאִינוּן בִּתְפִלִּין דְּיָד וּתְפִלִּין דְּרֵישָׁא, וַעֲלַיְיהוּ אִתְּמַר (דברים כח י) וְרָאוּ כָּל עַמֵּי הָאָרֶץ כִּי שֵׁם יְיָ' וכו'.

And they are 42 there, corresponding to the 42 mentions (of God's name) in the hand tefillin and in the head tefillin. And it is about them that it is stated (Deuteronomy 28:10), "And all the peoples of the earth shall see that the name of the Lord, etc."
