264) \u201cThe righteous shall flourish like the palm-tree.\u201d \u201cThe righteous … as a palm-tree\u201d because of all the trees in the world, there is none who is so delayed in its blooming as the palm tree, for it rises over seventy years. And why is the righteous compared to a palm tree?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
265) But \u201cThe righteous shall flourish like the palm-tree\u201d is said about the exile in Babylon, when Divinity returned to her place only after seventy years, as it is written, \u201cFor thus says the Lord, \u2018When seventy years have been completed for Babylon, I will visit you.\u2019\u201d This is \u201cThe righteous shall flourish like the palm-tree,\u201d that male and female rise over seventy years. The righteous is the Creator, who returned to Babylon after seventy years, as it is written, \u201cFor the Lord is righteous, He loves righteousness,\u201d and it is written, \u201cThe Lord is righteous,\u201d and, \u201cSay to the righteous that it will be good.\u201d Thus, the Creator is called \u201crighteous.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
266) \u201cHe shall grow like a cedar in Lebanon.\u201d A cedar is the Creator, as it is written, \u201cExcellent as the cedars.\u201d \u201cShall grow like a cedar in Lebanon,\u201d and Lebanon means upper Eden, Hochma<\/em>, of which it is written, \u201cNeither has an eye seen a God but You.\u201d And a cedar, which is ZA<\/em>, will grow in that high place, when it rises there.<\/p>\n\n\n\n 267) In the last exile, the Creator is as a cedar whose blooming and growing is detained. From the time He rises until He is established in His persistence, to the time when redemption occurs, it is a day, and a day of the Creator is a thousand years. And the beginning of the second day, until it casts a shade in the light of the day\u2014after midday, when the sun begins to set in the day of the Creator\u2014it is five hundred years later. Thus, redemption will come after one thousand five hundred years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n And a cedar rises only when the water is refined, as it is written, \u201cAs cedars beside the waters.\u201d Similarly, the cedar will grow in Lebanon, since from there\u2014from Lebanon, which is Hochma\u2014<\/em>a fountain, a river comes out, meaning Bina<\/em>, to water the cedar. And this cedar is the Creator, who is ZA<\/em>, who receives the watering, as it is written, \u201cExcellent as the cedars.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n 268) Planted in the house of God is for the time of the Messiah King. In the courtyards, our God will cause him to flourish, in the revival of the dead. \u201cThey shall still bring forth fruit in old age,\u201d on the day when the world is ruined, in the seventh millennium. \u201cThey shall be full of sap and fresh,\u201d after the world is rebuilt in the new heaven and new earth. Then, \u201cThe Lord will rejoice in His works,\u201d and all that, \u201cTo declare that the Lord is upright, my Rock, in whom there is no unrighteousness.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" 264) \u201cThe righteous shall flourish like the palm-tree.\u201d \u201cThe righteous … as a palm-tree\u201d because of all the trees in […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"parent":14654,"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-14698","book","type-book","status-publish","hentry","topic-zohar"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\n
