Hashem is called Ein Sof (no End), and not "No Beginning". If he were called "No Beginning", it would be impossible to begin to speak about Him at all. But we are able to conceive of HIm to some small exent through his creaton. This is a beginning, but it has no end.
The Maggid of Mezitch
Toras Hamaggid, 22:162.
Comment:
Compare: You know that the Essence of the Emanator, Blessed be His Name, we can speak of it not at all... all that we speak of is HIs Will... that this is permitted for us to speak of more...Even this we have limits as to what we can discuss but still, since we are speaking of his Will and not Himself, we are allowed to contemplate it more.
Ramchal KL"CH:1
