Thesis 11>69
Latin
Ex fundamento praecedentis conclusionis sciri pariter potest secretum quinquaginta portarum intelligentiae, et millesimae generationis, et regni omnium saeculorum.
English
From the same foundation as the previous conclusion we can likewise learn the secret of the fifty gates of understanding, of the thousandth generation, and of the kingdom that spans every age.
'fifty gates of intelligence' names Binah, the third sefirah, under its most common name; these are further millennial and eschatological symbols tied to the numerology of 11>68 (farmer1998:28007).
