197. “And the Lord said to Moses, ‘One president a day.” “One president a day shall make sacrifice their offering for the dedication of the altar.” “A day” is the days above, that have been educated to bless, which are twelve boundaries, HG TM, with three lines in each, which are twelve boundaries that are divided. Each one is corrected and educated in the blessing by those presidents below, for each president would correct one day. They are all blessed by the merit of the altar of above, Bina, and even the lower world, and even the nations of the world are blessed.

198. Had the twelve presidents not offered, the world would have been unable to withstand the twelve presidents of Ishmael, as it is written, “twelve presidents according to their nations.” Once the twelve presidents of Israel had sacrificed, the control was taken away from all of them. Because of it, “one president a day.”

199. All that they had sacrificed, they sacrificed such as above, so that everyone would be blessed, as it is written, sixty rams, sixty male goats. This is as it is written, “Sixty mighty men around her,” which are HGT NHY of ZA, since from the side of Gevura, each one comprises ten, and they are sixty. “One gold pan of ten, full of incense,” corresponding to the kingship [Malchut]. Happy are the righteous, on whom the Creator bestows blessings and hears their prayer. It is written about them, “He shall regard the prayer of the destitute, and shall not despise their prayer.”
