 The work that [Adam] was to perform was similar to that of the ten emanations of Divinity [the Sefirot of Atzilut] as they exist now. Their service is to unite themselves in an awesome
unity into the Source of Emanation, the Infinite Oneness, may His Name be praised, and to nullify themselves to Him to the utmost possible degree, constantly and uninterruptedly.
Their entire service involves taking the awesome unifications of the Torah and the commandments [that rise up from below] and elevating them higher and higher into the Infinite Unity.
In this way they themselves are drawn ever closer, eternally uniting into the Unity of the Infinite Emanator to the utmost degree of unity, enraptured in the bliss of His Radiance.
According to the exalted level that he was given at that time, Adam's service was supposed to mirror that of the Sefirot of Atzilut. (Leshem, Sefer HaDe'ah 2:4:20:5, p. 167 (84a, top)
