   Something about this anlysis of the Sifra Ditseni‘uta tickles at me:

   A cosmology that says there were 'six created' that fell and were / will be restored, plus another 'thirteen' through whose compassion the six are raised?

   seems to echo the idea elsewhere in Jewish thought that 'one third of the stars/angels fell' and another two thirds did not fall

      The obvious connection to Sefer Yetzirah, of course, being that 'the six' represent the faces of a cube and the 'thirteen' are the edges

      So.... the sides fell off the Cube of Space, but the lattice remained?

      So.... the front fell off the Cube of Space, but the lattice remained?
