54-55) All those friends, who do not love each other, depart the world before their time. <\/strong>All the friends in Rashbi\u2019s time had love of soul and love of spirit among them. This is why in his generation, the secrets of Torah were revealed. Rabbi Shimon would say, \u201cAll the friends who do not love each other cause themselves to stray from the right path. Moreover, they put a blemish in the Torah, since there is love, brotherhood, and truth in the Torah. Abraham loved Isaac; Isaac loved Abraham; and they were embraced. And they were both gripped to Jacob with love and brotherhood, and were giving their spirits in one another. The friends should be like them, and not blemish them, for if love is lacking in them, they will blemish their value above, that is, Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, which are HGT<\/em>.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the future, when we see Divinity face to face, all the faces will be supported, for they will be shining in that secret.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

106) Before Israel sinned, while they were standing at Mount Sinai, the filth of the serpent was removed from them, since then there was the annulment of the evil inclination in the world, and it was repelled from them. At that time, they united in the tree of life and rose to the uppermost degrees and did not come down. Then they knew and saw the highest visions of ZA<\/em>, their eyes shone and they were delighted to know and to hear. At that time, the Creator girded them with belts of letters of the Holy Name, which are jewels from Mount Horev, so the serpent would not be able to rule over them and would not defile them as before in Egypt.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

104) The friends came<\/strong> and kissed Rabbi Shimon\u2019s hands. They said, \u201cIf we had come to the world only to hear this thing, we would have been content.\u201d They wept and said, \u201cWoe unto us. When we depart from the world, who will shine and reveal the lights of Torah?\u201d This thing shines to the top of the heaven, and is written in the King\u2019s throne, and the Creator is now delighted about this thing. And how much joy over joy was added before the Holy King? Who will evoke words of wisdom in the world as you do?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

120) Happy are the righteous<\/strong> who know the secrets of Torah and cling to the Torah, and keep the verse, \u201cBut you shall meditate on it day and night.\u201d By her merit, they will be rewarded with the life of the next world, as it is written, \u201cFor this is your life and the length of your days.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

New Zohar, Ki Tissa <\/em>[When You Take]<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

46) One who considers making a Mitzva<\/em> is as though he had done it because with his thought, he caused great abundance of blessings to come from the high thought to the place called Mitzva<\/em>, Malchut<\/em>. For this reason, it is as though he had done it, the Malchut<\/em>. \u201cAnd you shall do them.\u201d A thought is certainly the beginning of everything.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

56-59) \u201cThe heavens tell the glory of God.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Heaven is the Creator, ZA<\/em>. \u201cTell\u201d means that they illuminate to a place called \u201cthe glory of God.\u201d \u201cThe glory of God\u201d is the daughter of Abraham, Malchut<\/em>. \u201cGod\u201d is Abraham, Hesed<\/em>. \u201cTell\u201d is as it is written, \u201cThen he saw and told it.\u201d \u201cAnd told it,\u201d as it is written, \u201cHer stones are the place of sapphire,\u201d from the word illumination. Those heaven, ZA<\/em>, correct her in all the corrections for the glory of the God, Malchut<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is why Israel below bring light to the Malchut <\/em>in secret from the fountain above, from ZA<\/em>, and say, \u201cBlessed be the name of the glory of His kingdom forever and ever,\u201d and the place called \u201cheaven\u201d testifies about them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When Israel are in wholeness, they testify a complete testimony about them, the Creator and the Assembly of Israel, ZA<\/em> and Malchut<\/em>. At that time the dew of above is drawn from the place of Atik<\/em>, Keter<\/em>. It is so when ZA<\/em> and Malchut <\/em>are in unity, as it is written, \u201cMy head is filled with dew.\u201d Dew has the count of \u201cThe Lord is one,\u201d the Creator and the Assembly of Israel, since at that time Israel are worthy of the dew.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

82-83) First, one must exert in fear, Malchut<\/em>, who is the door to everything, and afterwards, in the written Torah, ZA<\/em> who is above. It is so because any person who does not fear sin has no permission to enter that door of faith, which is Malchut<\/em>. And once he is repelled from that door, he is repelled from everything because he has no door through which to enter everything, as it is written, \u201cThis is the gate to the Lord.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Anyone whose fear of sin precedes his wisdom, his wisdom persists, since the wisdom sits on a \u201cStock which Your right has planted,\u201d which is the fear, called \u201cthe glory of God.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
