The sephirot are numbered in the order of the "lightning flash", starting with the creative spark at Kether and culminating in Malkuth at the bottom of the central pillar.

The Ari, as Rabbi Luria was affectionately called, postulated that the Sephirot were improperly constructed before Creation and shattered; the shards of light manifested as imperfection in the world we live in.

Malkhut, being the Sephirot furthest from Eyn Sof, is simply said to be representing the direction away from God, although (as Yeshua taught), it is also the beginning point in a relationship with God.
As such, the Sephirot are presented in three "columns" or "pillars." This arrangement is known as the "Tree of Life," or "Image of God".

 A Bardon Companion: Correspondence - 138

In the ancient texts, the term "Path" is used for the Letters AND the Sephirot (e.g., the 32 Paths of Wisdom) and is not an indication of a connection between the Sephirot.
In the example of Gate #4 (8.10.9.8), which is composed of five "Paths", one begins in the highest Sephirot of Hod (8) and travels first to the lowest Sephirot in the Gate, Malkuth (10).

G-d interacts with the world by means of the ten cosmic building-blocks we spoke of earlier known as the sephirot, including the aforementioned Tipheret and Malchut.
