The dense distinction of words of the Kabbalah may
have some say here on man's difficulty surrounding
the speaking of being. Four worlds of being are as
follows: atzilut [emanation] is the nearest and is
without shadow; beriyah [creation] is an ex nihilo
beginning and novelty; yetzirah [formation] is the
gathering into one, especially of form and matter;
and asiyah [actualization] is simple making and an
ultimate completion. The thinking of nous is prior
to speech: thus to say 'let it be' and it is so is
to deal with what already is, that from which what
may be drawn, or substance. Such is it with light.
But to create one must not say, or rather say then
have it so; one must distinguish from what is not,
interpret, and let it be from the shadow of being.
Such is it with darkness. So, speak already after.
