88
In Kabbalah, the number 88 holds significance within the teachings of Yehuda Leib HaLevi Ashlag (Baal HaSulam), particularly in the article titled "88. All the Work Is Only Where There Are Two Ways".
This article discusses the spiritual labor involved in adhering to the Torah, emphasizing that the work is only meaningful where there are two opposing paths or states—such as the desire to receive versus the desire to bestow. The article notes that one feels the heaviness of the body's resistance to the conditions of the Torah, but when rewarded and guarded by the Torah, this heaviness is no longer sensed, as the Torah teaches one's soul.
The article is part of a larger collection of teachings known as Shamati Articles.

Another Kabbalistic reference to 88 is found in the Tzava'at Harivash, a collection of ethical teachings attributed to Rabbi Israel Baal Shem Tov.
In section 88, it is advised to show compassion for the Shechinah (the divine presence) when speaking, as speech is connected to the World of Speech, which is identified with the Shechinah.
The text teaches that one should be overcome by fear when speaking, because the Shechinah, associated with the attribute of fear (Gevurah), is present in speech, and realizing this connection generates a sense of awe and reverence.
This fear is rooted in Binah, the supernal Shechinah, and is reflected in the lower Shechinah, Malchut.
