208. "That walks in darkness, and has no light." HE ASKS: Because he did not come to pray, he "walks in darkness." HE RESPONDS: It was however explained only that before Yisrael gather into the synagogues to pray, the Other Side stands around and closes all the upper lights, so that they should not expand and be distributed over the world. Three times a day, this Other Side, which is male and female, goes and wanders around the world. That time was appropriated for prayers, because then no accusations prevail.
