C. The scholar versus the layman – Each soul receives a revelation commensurate to its level: Torah Or p. 76b-78a
The 248 unique G-dly revelations which attaches to each Jewish soul, as stated above, does not shine equally to each Jew. Rather, every Jew receives a unique aspect of G-dly revelation in a quality that other souls do not receive, each soul receiving in accordance to its capabilities and purpose in this world. For example, those souls who are aspired to become the leaders of the Jewish people are considered intellectual souls, which receive a high level of G-dly revelation in their intellect and allow them to become a receptacle for Torah study. Other souls are receptacles for the emotional attributes, and other souls are considered the feet. Each soul receives in accordance to its unique definition and purpose.
