"Qlippah" or "Klippah" (plural "Qlippoth") means "shell" or "husk". A qlippah is also a covering or a container, the Qlippoth appear in Kabbalah as demonic powers of evil. The Zohar attributes the primary cause of evil to the act of separation. According to Gersham Scholem, the Zohar interprets evil as "the residue or refuse of the hidden life's organic process"; evil is something which is dead, but comes to life because a spark of God falls on it; by itself it is simply the dead residue of life.
