Hebrew, “wisdom.” Chokhmah is the uppermost of the Sefirot of the right line or kav yamin (Hebrew for “Right Line”) in the Tree of Life. This Sefirot possesses two faces: the higher being the feminine half of Abba Ila’ah (“the higher father”), or in other words, our Heavenly Mother, the Queen of Heaven. The lower being the Mother of Yisrael/Israel, which is to say the mother of the Body of Christ, or the Church of God (Revelation 12:1-2). Chokhma is associated with Eden and the tree of knowledge of good and evil (wisdom, knowing right from wrong). This wisdom holds the keys to God’s light and must be “unlocked” by Da’at, knowledge (God the Father). Together, the male and female haves unite to create within us Binah; understanding, through the mercy of Christ and the fire of the Holy Ghost.
More than merely meaning wisdom, Chokhma breaks down into two words: koach (potential) and ma (what is). Just as God said in Genesis, “man has become like us, able to know good from evil”, Chokhma sees the divine potential in us to, through Christ, inherit all that the Father and Mother have.
