(I) The letter Yud

32. The letter Yud entered, stood before Him, and
said, Master of the World, may it please You to create
the world with me, because I am the first letter of the
Holy Name Yud, Hei, Vav, and Hei. Thus, it should be
proper for you to create the world with me. He
replied: It should suffice you to be engraved upon My
Name and appear in Me. You embrace all My desires.
Rise up, it would not be proper for you to be removed
from My Name!

(J) The letter Tet

33. The letter Tet entered, stood before Him and said,
Master of the World may it please You to create the
world with me, as by me You are called Tov Veyashar
(Good and Honest). He replied: I will not create the
world with you, because your goodness is concealed
within you. Therefore it is written: "O how abundant
is Thy goodness which You have concealed for them
that fear You" (Tehilim 31:20). So because Your
GOODNESS is concealed within You, it cannot take
any part in this world that I want to create. It only
applies to the world to come. Furthermore, because
your goodness is concealed and treasured within
yourself, the gates of the Holy Temple shall be 'sunk.'
As it is written: "Her gates are sunk into the ground"
(Eicha 2:9). And to add to all this, the letter Chet
stands before you, together you become Chet (SIN).
This is why these two letters do not appear in the
names of the twelve tribes.

Tet immediately then took its leave and went away
from Him.

(K) THE LETTER ZAYIN

34. The letter Zayin entered and said to Him, Master
of the World, may it please You to create the world
with me. Because with my help, Your children shall
preserve the Shabbat, as it is written, "Remember
(Zachor) the Shabbat day, to keep it holy" (Shemot
20:8). He replied: I will not create the world with you,
because you represent war, THAT IS, a sharp pointed
sword and a spear WITH WHICH PEOPLE make
war. AND THEY ARE CALLED TOOLS of
destruction, which in Hebrew is PRONOUNCED
ZAYIN! And you are like the letter Nun, WHICH
THE WORLD WAS NOT CREATED BY,
BECAUSE IT IS AT THE BEGINNING OF THE
WORD NEFILAH (FALLING).

(L) The letters Vav and Hei

35. The letter Vav entered, and pleaded before Him,
Master of the World, may it please You to create the
world with me because I am in myself one of the
letters of Your Name HA-VA-YAH!" He replied:
Vav, you and the letter Hei should both be satisfied
with being written in My Name HA-VA-YAH.
