HaShamayim is 1) a chair that brings down and close to the worlds (as understood from the Possuk HaShamayim Kissi [The heaven is My throne]) while in most other contexts Shamayim is remote and aloof. This Maamar explains the first idea, that Shamayim is a Kisii (chair) and brings close and then explores a means by which to reconcile this idea with how Shamayim is normally understood (as being remote or: Makif). This is a difficult Maamar and could have been delivered better. Introduction.Actual Maamar.
