Chapter 4, Verse 14


14. He made the letter Tav king over grace, and He bound a crown to it, and He combined one with another, and with them He formed Jupiter in the universe, the Sabbath in the year, the mouth in the soul (person), male and female.

The letter Tav stands for Torah and Teshuvah (repentance, return). Through the study of Torah, we bring an additional grace into our lives.

"The Torah bestows grace upon those who study it. -Eiruvin 54b"

"If a man is virtuous and studies the Torah day and night, then God weaves around him a thread of grace. -Zohar III, 76a"
