193. \u201cAnd it came to pass on the day when Moses had finished establishing the tabernacle,\u201d in the day when the bride, the Shechina, entered the Hupa [wedding canopy]. Thus, how will we explain the verse, \u201cIn the day when Moses had finished\u201d? It would have been enough to write \u201cIn the day when it was finished.\u201d However, this teaches that she entered thanks to Moses. Was the Shechina delayed until now and did not enter her place? But it is written, \u201cAnd Moses could not come to the tabernacle since the cloud had been on it, and the glory of the Lord had filled the tabernacle.\u201d Thus, the Shechina was in the tabernacle prior to that day. However, there is no before or after in the Torah, and the words \u201cMoses could not come\u201d are later than what is written here.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
194. \u200e\u201cAnd it came to pass on the day when Moses had finished [Hebrew: Kalot].\u201d The Shechina is \u200ecalled Kalat Moshe [Moses\u2019 bride]. It is written, \u201cYou have ascended on high; You have taken captive; You have taken gifts among men.\u201d But when the Creator told him, \u201cTake your shoes off your \u200efeet,\u201d the mountain shook. Angel Michael said to the Creator, \u201cLord of the world, do You wish \u200eto destroy man\u2019s construction? But it is written, \u2018Male and female He created them and \u200eblessed them,\u2019 and there is blessing only in one who is male and female. And why did You tell \u200eMoses to part from his wife? Thus, \u2018Take your shoes off your feet\u2019 means that he should part \u200efrom his wife.\u2019\u201d Here the text uses euphemism.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
195. The Creator said to him, \u201cBut Moses carried out being fruitful and multiplying; now I want him to marry the Shechina, and for him, the Shechina will come down to dwell with him, as it is written, \u2018You have ascended on high; You have taken captive.\u2019 The captive is the Shechina, who Moses carried with him. \u2018You have taken gifts among men.\u2019 It is not written \u201cin a man,\u201d with a Shva [punctuation sign], but \u2018in the man,\u2019 with a Kamatz [another punctuation sign], indicating the known man above, who is ZA.\u201d The gift is the Shechina, which ZA had given him. On the day when the Shechina came down, on the day when she married Moses, it is written, \u201cOn the day when Moses had finished.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
196. It is written about Joshua, whose face was as the face of the moon, \u201cTake off your shoe.\u201d He did not part from his wife unless at specific times, for the purpose of prophesy, since the Shechina was not so married to him and he was not worthy of her, as it is written, \u201cAnd Joshua fell to the ground on his face.\u201d But here, she is indeed Moses\u2019 bride. \u201cYou have taken gifts among men.\u201d It is written \u201cgifts\u201d without a Vav [in Hebrew], which is the sign for plural form, since it concerned the Shechina, who is singular. Happy is Moses that his Master wanted his glory over that of all the other people in the world.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
