Others see it as illustrating the spiritual reality of the divine sparks trapped in husks of evil that characterize the lower worlds…Eleazer of Worms understood it as a symbol of the divine chariot. It is customary to abstain from eating nuts in the weeks leading up to the High Holidays because the gematria [numerological] value of egoz [nut] is the same as chet, the word for sin.
