Perhaps, I can now use Chesed to judge them and maybe then, I can find a merit to keep them in existence.” From this, we learn the kindness with which Hashem desires to judge His creations and it is only after no justification can be found that Hashem exacts retribution. However, with Daas Elyon, although Hashem already has the knowledge of all of one’s actions, since this knowledge does not affect the world, it therefore does not give retribution, and retribution is given only when Daas Tachton receives this knowledge. Hashem stated that prior to destroying Sodom, He would give them a chance of being judged through the masculine level of Z”a, which would judge them with a form of Chesed and would try to give them the benefit of the doubt. To answer that question, there is a well known saying of the Chochamim: “It is revealed and known before He who said and created the world.” Hashem’s knowledge of the world is unlike regular, human knowledge. A judgment of Z”a comes in a way that Hashem views the actions of His creations in a form of Chesed, and thus judges them favorably, in search of an explanation or justification to save them from punishment. If this were the case with Hashem; that Hashem is involved, focused and invested in all worldly matters of His creations, He is, so to speak, incorporating other aspects, such as intellect, into His entity. I will descend now and see, whether according to her cry, which has come to Me, they have done; [I will wreak] destruction [upon them]; and if not, I will know.’” Hashem’s statement here is most puzzling. Within the level of Daas Tachton, which brings reward and punishment to actions done by man, there are two different forms of Divine judgment: One from Malchus and one from Z”a. Philosophers could not understand how the concept of Hashgacha Protis can coexist with the belief that Hashem is a single entity, not made up of different aspects and parts. The level of “Galuiy Veyadua - Revealed and known” refers to a higher knowledge called Daas Elyon, to which all is known and revealed before Him without any effort.
