The Alter Rebbe explained that since G-d is infinitely exalted above intellect, intellectual means are inadequate to grasp His absolute union with the sefirot of the World of Atzilut, despite them being limited to the particular Divine attributes of wisdom, kindness, and so on. The Zohar thus terms these attributes “the secret of faith,” for their union with the Divine is beyond mortal comprehension.
