FACE TO FACE

Two years after she was attacked and horribly disfigured by a friend's pet chimpanzee, an American woman has revealed her new face on the television.

The Talmud-Book of Law details the composition of the body explaining how the merging of the white and the red from the woman and the man in the form of cell and sperm create the different limbs of the body. The face is not included because the face comes from God.

Also, there is the Face of God that no man can see and live. The Ponim/Face comes from the word Ponimiot/Internal. My teacher taught me, The face is a thief stealing the emotions from the heart and showing them to everyone – red-faced and blushing is the proof.

People hide their face when they are ashamed. Yaakov, progenitor of the 12 Jewish Tribes, loved Rachel because of the form of her face. A long tractate in the Zohar-Book of Secret details how to read the face. To replace is face is a wonderful accomplishment.

The face is the unique stamp of the Creator. Once there was a master able to read a person's life from their forehead; when a visiter entered with his hat pulled down to his eyes, the master said, If I can read your forehead, I can also see through your hat.
