'''Chesed''' ({{Hebrew|חסד}} „grace, kindness, goodness”) or '''Gedulah''' ({{Hebrew|גֹּדֶל}} „greatness”) is the fourth sefira on the [[Tree of Life of Kabbalah]]. It stands for grace and goodness in the sense of loving care and compassion. [[Rudolf Steiner]] translates it as [[freedom]] {{GZ||353|212|213}}. Chesed stands on the right pillar [[Jachin]] under [[Chokmah]] (wisdom) and above Netzach (victory).

Chesed is the '''fourth path''' of the [[32 paths of wisdom]] and stands for the measuring, holding together or receiving intelligence.
