God originally intended man to rule over the upper realm, but the presence of the Nefilim and their spiritual influence introduces opposition to this divine structure.<br>\n#227<br>\nThey [the angels] wanted to object to the creation of Adam and said: &ldquo;&#1502;&#1464;&#1492;&#1470;&#1488;&#1457;&#1504;&#1493;&#1465;&#1513;&#1473; &#1499;&#1468;&#1460;&#1497;&#1470;&#1514;&#1460;&#1494;&#1456;&#1499;&#1468;&#1456;&#1512;&#1462;&#1504;&#1468;&#1493;&#1468;&rdquo; &ldquo;What is man, that You should remember him?&rdquo; (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.sefaria.org\/Psalms.8.5?lang=bi&amp;with=all&amp;lang2=en\" target=\"_blank\">Psalms 8:5<\/a>) &mdash;that he is destined to sin before You. Therefore, the angels wanted to accuse him and said before the Holy One, Blessed be He: &ldquo;What is man that You should remember him?&rdquo; Behold, he is destined to sin before You, so why would You lower us beneath him? The Holy One, Blessed be He, said to them: If you had been below on earth like him, you would have sinned more than him. Immediately, &ldquo;&#1493;&#1463;&#1497;&#1468;&#1460;&#1512;&#1456;&#1488;&#1493;&#1468; &#1489;&#1456;&#1504;&#1461;&#1497; &#1492;&#1464;&#1488;&#1457;&#1500;&#1465;&#1492;&#1460;&#1497;&#1501; &#1488;&#1462;&#1514; &#1489;&#1468;&#1456;&#1504;&#1493;&#1465;&#1514; &#1492;&#1464;&#1488;&#1464;&#1491;&#1464;&#1501; &#1499;&#1468;&#1460;&#1497; &#1496;&#1465;&#1489;&#1465;&#1514; &#1492;&#1461;&#1504;&#1468;&#1464;&#1492;&rdquo; &ldquo;And the sons of God saw the daughters of man that they were good&rdquo; (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.sefaria.org\/Genesis.6.2?lang=bi&amp;with=all&amp;lang2=en\" target=\"_blank\">Genesis 6:2<\/a>). They desired them, and the Holy One, Blessed be He, cast them down below in chains.<br>\nNotes:<br>\nThe angels who objected to man&rsquo;s creation were themselves tested and fell into sin, proving man&rsquo;s spiritual struggle is uniquely challenging. Their downfall validates God&rsquo;s plan, demonstrating that even celestial beings can succumb to earthly temptation. Thus, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sefaria.org\/Genesis.6.2?lang=bi&amp;with=all&amp;lang2=en\" target=\"_blank\">Genesis 6:2<\/a> is both literal and symbolic: fallen angels (Bnei Elohim) succumbed to desire, justifying their descent and man&rsquo;s spiritual role.<br>\n#228<br>\nAnd they are Aza and Azael, from whom come the souls of the Erev Rav (Mixed Multitude), who are from the side of the Nefilim (Fallen Ones), who even caused themselves to fall from their holiness to lust after beautiful women. Because of this, the Holy One, Blessed be He, cast them out from the World to Come so that they would have no portion there. He gave them their reward in this world, as it is written: &ldquo;&#1493;&#1468;&#1502;&#1456;&#1513;&#1463;&#1473;&#1500;&#1461;&#1468;&#1501; &#1500;&#1456;&#1513;&#1465;&#1474;&#1504;&#1456;&#1488;&#1464;&#1497;&#1493; &#1488;&#1462;&#1500;-&#1508;&#1464;&#1468;&#1504;&#1464;&#1497;&#1493; &#1500;&#1456;&#1492;&#1463;&#1488;&#1458;&#1489;&#1460;&#1497;&#1491;&#1493;&#1465;&rdquo; &ldquo;And He repays those who hate Him to their face, to destroy them&rdquo; (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.sefaria.org\/Deuteronomy.7.10?lang=bi&amp;with=all&amp;lang2=en\" target=\"_blank\">Deuteronomy 7:10<\/a>).
