90) When the Creator erects Israel and delivers them from exile, a very small and thin vent of light shall open to them. And then another, a little bigger opening will open for them, until the Creator opens for them the upper gates that are open to the four directions of the world. That is, their salvation will not appear at once, but like the dawn, which shines gradually brighter until midday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
91) And all that the Creator does to Israel and to the righteous among them, when He delivers them bit by bit and not all at once, is like a person who is in the dark and has always been in the dark. When you want to give him light, you first need to light a small light, like the eye of a needle, and then a little bigger. Thus, every time some more until all the light properly shines for him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
92) Such are Israel. And also, one who is healed is not healed at once. Rather, it comes bit by bit until he is healed. But for Esau, it shone at once, and gradually waned, until Israel grow strong and blot him out from the whole of this world and from the next world. And because the day lit up for him at once, he had ruin from everything. But the light of Israel gradually increases until they gain strength and the Creator shines for them forever.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
93) \u201cWho is this who looks down like the dawn, as beautiful as the moon, as bright as the sun, as awesome as an army with banners?\u201d The dawn is the beginning of the morning, the thickening darkness before the light of day. This is the afore-mentioned fine light.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Afterwards, it is as beautiful as the moon, since the light of the moon is more than the light of the dawn. And afterwards it is as bright as the sun, whose light is bright and shines more than the moon. And afterwards it is \u201cas awesome as an army with banners.\u201d This means that it is bright, with properly bright light. \u201c\u2026as an army with banners\u201d are four banners that contain twelve tribes, which are the complete fullness of the Nukva.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
94) When the day is still dark, the light is covered, and the morning comes to shine, it begins with shining just a little, until the light increases properly. Similarly, when the Creator awakens to shine for the assembly of Israel, He will first shine like the dawn, which is black, and then as handsome as the moon, and then as bright as the sun, and then \u201cas terrible as an army with banners.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
95) Since the dawn has risen, it does not say, \u201cThe dawn has come,\u201d but rather, \u201cThe day breaks.\u201d This is so because when the dawn comes, that appointee over Esau prevails and bites Jacob in order to give Esau the courage to prevail.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
96) But when the beginning of the dawn rises, the light comes and Jacob prevails. This is because then comes his time to shine, as it is written, \u201cAnd the sun rose upon him and he limped upon his thigh.\u201d \u201cThe sun rose upon him\u201d because then was the time to shine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
97) \u201cAnd he limped upon his thigh.\u201d When Israel are in exile and suffer pains and sorrow and several hardships, when the day shines for them and they have rest, then they will look, and their hearts will ache from all the hardships and the troubles they had suffered, and they will wonder about them. It is written about that, \u201cAnd the sun rose upon him,\u201d the sun of the time of rest. And then, \u201che limped upon his thigh,\u201d which aches and regrets what he had suffered.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
98) When the morning broke, Jacob prevailed and gripped him, for the strength of the angel weakened because he has dominion only at night, and Jacob rules during the day. This is why it is written, \u201cAnd he said, \u2018Let me go, for the dawn has broken,\u2019\u201d for I am in your domain.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
