The Torah, which is the holy name, is also concealed and revealed. In this verse everything is revealed, according to the literal meaning, where the text speaks of his father\u2019s wife. But there is concealed information in it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>337) Your father\u2019s wife. As long as the queen is with the king, nursing you with her abundance, she is considered your mother. Now, in exile, when she has been exiled with you and has moved away from the king, she is called \u201cyour father\u2019s wife,\u201d as she is the wife of the holy king,&nbsp;<em>ZA<\/em>. Because she did not part by divorce, she is certainly his wife, as it is written, \u201cThus says the Lord, \u2018Where is the certificate of divorce by which I have sent your mother away?\u2019\u201d Indeed, she is the king\u2019s wife even though she has been exiled.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>338) This is why He commands her twice. The first is when she sits with the king in one&nbsp;<em>Zivug<\/em>, and she is called \u201cyour mother,\u201d as it is written, \u201cDo not uncover &#8230; the nakedness of your mother,\u201d meaning you should not make them grow apart and have her sent away for your iniquity, as it is written, \u201cFor your transgressions was your mother sent away.\u201d Another is when she is exiled with you and has been exiled from the king\u2019s palace. At that time she is called \u201cthe king\u2019s wife.\u201d Although she has moved away from the king, do not make her move away from you and your enemies govern you, and she will not keep you in the exile, as it is written, \u201cDo not uncover &#8230; the nakedness of father\u2019s wife,\u201d for it is the nakedness of your father. Though she has moved away from the king, the guidance of the king is always in her, and one must carefully keep oneself regarding her, and not sin toward her.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>336) \u201cDo not uncover the nakedness of your father\u2019s mother.\u201d All the words of Torah are concealed and revealed, like
