Text from the Thirty-two Paths of Wisdom corresponding to this Sephirah: «The Seventh Path is called the Occult Intelligence because it is the refulgent splendor of all intellectual virtues, which are perceived by the eyes of the intellect and the contemplation of faith.»

Emanating from Netzach, Netsah, is divine victory, a male, all active and positive power of the creator, which produces all manifested worlds in giving life to all beings and things by «extension, multiplication and force.» From Netzach issues pure life composed of light and bliss, with which it fills everything born from the illusory or cosmic «multiplication» of the One.

This divine «victory» power does not function alone, but must be accompanied by the opposed and complementary divine «glory,» feminine in essence, emanating from the Sephirah Hod. This female quality is the receptive and negative power of the creator, which separates, forms, and transforms all the worlds produced indifferently by Netzach. A.G.H.
