Sefer ha-Peliah: Hikmet, Anlayış ve Bilgi Üzerine

And this is the secret of the verse: "And wisdom and understanding and knowledge." Wisdom is the practical and contemplative power; understanding is the practical thought within existence; and knowledge is the thought that deepens into the matters of the world and its secrets. And this is what the Scripture said: "The Lord founded the earth with wisdom, established the heavens with understanding, by His knowledge the depths were broken up, etc." It means the existence of the heavens and the earth is built upon these three things: wisdom, understanding, and knowledge. And they are three foundational attributes in the world, and this is the completeness of existence. And behold, since there is a man in the world who is a master of wisdom, and another man who is a master of understanding, and another man who is a master of knowledge, therefore people need to unite and join together in order to complete one another. And behold, brotherhood is the foundation for the existence of the world. And this is his saying, "to dwell together," meaning when people unite in completeness and good leadership, they merit the kingdom.
