Partzufim and named configurations
The selected source describes a whole ten-sefirah פרצוף extended from each earlier point: Keter becomes א״א; Ḥokhmah becomes אבא; Binah becomes אמא; the six shattered points become ז״א; and the tenth point becomes בת / נוק׳ דז״א. The lesson teaches this source’s mapping, not a universal replacement rule for every use of the names.

SOURCE REFERENCE
Sefer Etz Chaim, Shaar HaKlalim 2:2 — selected five-partzuf sequence
APPROVED STUDY LAYERS
Source-specific guidance from the curriculum.
Learning objective
Map the five partzuf names to the source’s five originating points without flattening them into ordinary vocabulary.
Technical parsing
פרצוף is the repeated technical noun. א״א and ז״א are context-sensitive abbreviations; the source itself supplies the surrounding sequence that controls their expansion.
Practice
Match each named partzuf to the point or group of points from which this passage says it is formed. Which label is both בת and נוק׳ דז״א?
Answer key
Keter → א״א; Ḥokhmah → Abba; Binah → Imma; six shattered points → ז״א; tenth point → בת, the fifth partzuf, also נוק׳ דז״א.
