21) \u201cBe joyful with Jerusalem and rejoice for her, all you who love her.\u201d How favored is the Torah by the Creator because wherever words of Torah are heard, the Creator and all His armies listen to His words. And the Creator comes to dwell with him, as it is written, \u201cIn every place where I cause My name to be mentioned.\u201d Moreover, those who hate Him fall before him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
22) The Mitzvot<\/em> of the Torah are sublime, superior. A man comes and performs a Mitzva<\/em>. That Mitzva<\/em> stands before the Creator and crowns before Him and says, \u201cSo and so made me,\u201d and \u201cI am from so and so,\u201d since he awakened it above. This is so because as he evoked the Mitzva<\/em> below, it is awakened above and makes peace above and below. This causes Zivug<\/em> between ZA<\/em> and Malchut<\/em>, who are called \u201cabove\u201d and \u201cbelow.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n 23) \u201cBe joyful with Jerusalem,\u201d since there is joy only when Israel are in the holy land, where a woman connects with her husband, ZA<\/em> and Malchut<\/em>. Then it is the joy of everyone, a joy above and below. And when Israel are not in the holy land, one is forbidden to rejoice and to display joy, as it is written, \u201cBe joyful with Jerusalem and rejoice for her.\u201d Rejoice for her, when Israel are in her.<\/p>\n\n\n\n 24) When Jerusalem rejoices, man should rejoice, and not during the exile. \u201cBe joyful with Jerusalem,\u201d as it is written, \u201cServe the Lord with gladness.\u201d Jerusalem, meaning Divinity, should be served and delighted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n 25) One verse says, \u201cServe the Lord with gladness,\u201d and one verse says, \u201cServe the Lord with fear, and rejoice with trembling.\u201d When Israel are in the holy land, they serve before the Lord with gladness. When Israel are in another land, they should serve with fear and rejoice with trembling. \u201cServe the Lord with fear\u201d is the assembly of Israel, Malchut<\/em>, when she is in exile among the nations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n 26) \u201cFor you shall go out with joy.\u201d This is the assembly of Israel. As long as she is in exile and lies in the dust, she is not called \u201cjoy,\u201d until the Creator comes to her and raises her from the dust, and says, \u201cShake thyself from the dust; arise,\u201d shine and they will bond together. Then she is called \u201cjoy,\u201d the joy of everyone. And then, \u201cFor you shall go out with joy.\u201d Then several armies will go out to welcome the mistress for the joy of the King\u2019s meal.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" 21) \u201cBe joyful with Jerusalem and rejoice for her, all you who love her.\u201d How favored is the Torah by […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"parent":13852,"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-12206","book","type-book","status-publish","hentry","topic-zohar"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\n
