Joseph Tunic Colour: A Metaphor in Kabbalah
The emanations are spill from the top to the lower manifestations and the they are in exchange
from the lower to upper manifestations, this exchange become unity. 45 But need achieve this
interaction needs a freewill between lower and upper. 46 Free will is a desired where and
wants. A conscious decision to let possibilities, they are not under control to be part of this
flow, and only when in the realm of possibilities are included unity is achieve—redemption. 47
The exchange only can be possible, when every part has awareness and not enough parts, but
awareness. 48
Joseph brothers ask, the single individual, with upbringing of privilege will know about
redemption, where redemption only can happen through struggle of existence—the
understanding of pain—lost can give redemption. 49
This was the conflict, how anyone who cannot just understanding the manifestations, but the
inter-exchange of the flow, to achieve redemption, and fundamentally to alter the awareness
of the universe itself. 50
While destiny take Joseph slave, since the brothers wanted to show redemption means exile—
only the sense of not belonging can redemption could be achieved. 51 The conflict was base
Joseph saw redemption was not universal, will never be able to achieved original, where the
brothers saw redemption, to restore the original state. 52
