Segment 1א׳

תּוּ שְׁמַעְנָא מִבּוּצִינָא קַדִּישָׁא. תְּרוּמָה. מַהוּ תְּרוּמָה. כְּמָה דְּאוֹקִימְנָא, תְּרֵי מִמֵּאָה. תָּא חֲזֵי, כָּל אִינּוּן דַּרְגִּין קַדִּישִׁין, דִּי בְּרָזָא דִּמְהֵימְנוּתָא, דְּקוּדְשָׁא בְּרִיךְ הוּא אִתְגְּלֵי בְּהוֹן, אִינּוּן עֶשֶׂר דַּרְגִּין, וְאִינּוּן עֶשֶׂר אֲמִירָן, כְּמָה דְּאוּקְמוּהָ. וְאִלֵּין עֶשֶׂר סַלְּקִין לַמְּאָה, וְכַד אִצְטְרִיךְ לָן לְהַאי נְקוּדָה תַּתָּאָה לְאַרְמָא לָהּ, אָסִיר לָן לְנַטְלָא לָהּ בִּלְחוֹדָהָא. אֶלָּא לָהּ וּלְבַעְלָהּ. וְאִינּוּן תְּרֵי מֵאִינּוּן מֵאָה דְּקָאָמַרָן, בְּגִין דְּלָא אִצְטְרִיךְ לְאַפְרְשָׁא לוֹן כְּלָל, אֶלָּא לְיַחֲדָא לָהּ וּלְבַעְלָהּ. וְעַל דָּא אִתְקְרֵי תְּרוּמָה בִּכְלָלָא חֲדָא.

I have further heard from the Sacred Lamp (R. Simeon) that the t’rumah is meant to be resolved into tre (two) and meah (hundred), indicating two out of a hundred. For the sum of the holy grades involved in the mystery of Faith, by which the Holy One, blessed be He, manifests Himself, amounts to ten, and these are also ten utterances. The whole thus amounts to a hundred; and so in bringing an offering we have to combine the lower central point with the supernal central point, so as to unite the Shekinah with her Spouse, these being the two of the hundred grades and sub-grades just mentioned.
