82) \u201cAnd the Lord said to Moses, \u2018Why are you Yelling out to Me?\u2019\u201d It is written, \u201cAnd the Lord appointed a great fish to swallow Jonah … and Jonah prayed to the Lord his God from the stomach of the fish.\u201d Why does it write above, \u201cAnd the Lord appointed a great fish\u201d? Appointing means allotting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
83) It should have said, \u201cAnd the Lord allotted Jonah to the fish, meaning that he is the portion that the Creator had sent to the fish. However, certainly, this fish was the lot for Jonah, to keep him from all the other fish at sea and to have him concealed in it. And when the Creator brought him inside of it, Jonah saw in its intestines the vastness of its intestines as though it was a great palace. Also, the two eyes of the fish illuminated like the sun, and a jewel was in its intestines, illuminating for him, and he saw all that there was in the sea and in the deep.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
84) Thus, what does it mean when it writes, \u201cI called out of my distress,\u201d because from this, it does not seem that he had all that comfort over there. Indeed, after this fish showed all that was at sea and in the deep, it died, for it could not tolerate him for three days, and then it became pressing for Jonah.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
85) When Jonah saw all that comfort, he was delighted. The Creator said, \u201cWhat more do you need? Is this what I brought you here for?\u201d What did the Creator do? He killed that fish, and all the other fish in the sea were circling that fish. One bit it on that side, and one bit it on the other side, and then Jonah saw himself in trouble. Promptly, \u201cAnd Jonah prayed to the Lord his God from the stomach of the fish.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
86) In the beginning, the text called it, \u201cfish\u201d [in singular form in Hebrew], and now it calls it \u201cfish\u201d [in plural form], since it already died, as it is written, \u201cAnd the fish that are in the Nile will die.\u201d And then it is written, \u201cI called out of my distress.\u201d It does not write, \u201cI was in distress, or I was situated in distress,\u201d but \u201cI called out of my distress,\u201d meaning that the fish were causing me distress. And it is written, \u201cI cried for help from the stomach of Sheol\u201d [the netherworld], since it died. It does not write, \u201cFrom the stomach of a living one\u201d or \u201cFrom the stomach of a fish,\u201d but indeed, it was dead and this is why it was called \u201cSheol.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
87) When he prayed his prayer, the Creator accepted him, revived that fish, and brought him out to land before everyone\u2019s eyes, as it is written, \u201cAnd the Lord said to the fish, and it vomited Jonah up,\u201d and everyone saw the act of the Creator.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
88) \u201cAnd Jonah prayed unto the Lord his God,\u201d meaning he prayed to the place to which he was tied, the quality of Malchut<\/em>. It is written, \u201cThe Lord his God,\u201d and it does not write only, \u201cAnd he prayed to the Lord,\u201d but \u201cTo the Lord his God.\u201d This indicates the quality to which he was tied.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Here, too, \u201cAnd the Lord said unto Moses, \u2018Why are you yelling out to Me?\u2019\u201d it is precisely \u201cTo Me,\u201d to My quality, which is Tifferet<\/em>, to which Moses was tied. However, this depends on luck, as it was said, \u201cThe tearing of the Red Sea extended from Mazla<\/em> [luck\/fortune], which is the holy Dikna<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n 89) \u201cSpeak to the sons of Israel and they will go,\u201d meaning they will go from much talking, for now is not the time for prayer. To which place did He command them to go? After all, they were by the sea. However, this concerns before, when it is written, \u201cWhy are you yelling out to Me,\u201d meaning to Tifferet<\/em>, and they all stood in that place, Tifferet<\/em>, for all of Israel were tied to Tifferet<\/em>. This is why he said, \u201cAnd they will go,\u201d meaning that Israel would go from here, from Tifferet<\/em>, and will come to connect to the Mazla<\/em>, which is the Dikna<\/em>, for now is not the time for Tifferet<\/em>, but the matter depends on Mazla<\/em>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" 82) \u201cAnd the Lord said to Moses, \u2018Why are you Yelling out to Me?\u2019\u201d It is written, \u201cAnd the Lord […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"parent":11312,"menu_order":0,"template":"","meta":{"site-sidebar-layout":"default","site-content-layout":"","ast-site-content-layout":"","site-content-style":"default","site-sidebar-style":"default","ast-global-header-display":"","ast-banner-title-visibility":"","ast-main-header-display":"","ast-hfb-above-header-display":"","ast-hfb-below-header-display":"","ast-hfb-mobile-header-display":"","site-post-title":"","ast-breadcrumbs-content":"","ast-featured-img":"","footer-sml-layout":"","theme-transparent-header-meta":"","adv-header-id-meta":"","stick-header-meta":"","header-above-stick-meta":"","header-main-stick-meta":"","header-below-stick-meta":"","astra-migrate-meta-layouts":"default","ast-page-background-enabled":"default","ast-page-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"ast-content-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}}},"topic":[28],"class_list":["post-11350","book","type-book","status-publish","hentry","topic-zohar"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\n
