Divine Structure: The Supernal Man of Atzilus (chapters 5-17)
Containers as Sparks: Energy but Apart
The "Closeness" and "Distance" of Containers
Ayin Beis Volume 1, Discourse 3, Chapter 10, p. 16-17
Even though the containers of Atzilus are divine, yet their expression is not one of revelation (revealing the divine), but one that is separate and apart, like the spark of a flame, whose personality is the same as the flame (fire), yet the sparks shoot out of the flame and are separate from the actual flaming torch.
Even according to the explanation elsewhere that the containers themselves are close to the divine power of the finite, the reshimu (and only their coming into being is through distance), they still are infinitely distant from the infinite power and even from the pre-tzimtzum root of the reshimu.
