Zohar Acharei Mot

Songs 1:12
“עַד שֶׁהַמֶּלֶךְ בִּמְסִבּוֹ נִרְדִּי נָתַן רֵיחוֹ.”
“While the king is at his table, My spikenard sends forth its fragrance.”
Rabbi Aba explains this verse by saying, when the Holy One Blessed be He was ready at Mount Sinai to give the Torah to Israel, they emanated a good fragrance, which came to protect them for generations. They said, “All that YHVH has said we will do, and be obedient.” (Exodus 24:7)
Another interpretation of this verse; “While the king is at his table,” while Moses went up to receive the Torah from HaShem, which was engraved on two stone tablets, Israel left the protection of the good fragrance that was adorned on them when they said to the Golden Calf they created, “This is your God Israel” (Exodus 32:4).

Rabbi Aba clarifies this verse in the secret of Chokmah, Wisdom. It is written;
Genesis 2:10
“וְנָהָרּ יֹצֵא מֵעֵדֶן לְהַשְׁקוֹת אֶת הַגָּן וּמִשָּׁם יִפָּרֵד וְהָיָה לְאַרְבָּעָה רָאשִׁים.”
“Now a river went out of Eden to water the garden, and from there it parted and became four river heads.”
This river, which is Binah, spreads on its sides when unifying with the Garden, Chokmah, with complete unification. This path is unknown above and below as it is written;
Job 28:7
“נָתִיב לֹא יְדָעוֹ עָיִט וְלֹא שְׁזָפַתּוּ עֵין אַיָּה.”
“That path no bird knows, Nor has the falcon’s eye seen it.”
This path is Yessod of Chokmah, where we find that Chokmah and Binah never separate from each other. From them come springs and streams that are the Mochin (upper three sefirot) of Zeir Anpin. They crown the holy son, Zeir Anpin, as we read in;
Songs 3:11
“צְאֶינָה וּרְאֶינָה בְּנוֹת צִיּוֹן בַּמֶּלֶךְ שְׁלֹמֹה בָּעֲטָרָה שֶׁעִטְּרָה לּוֹ אִמּוֹ בְּיוֹם חֲתֻנָּתוֹ וּבְיוֹם שִׂמְחַת לִבּוֹ.”
“Go forth, O daughters of Zion, And see King Solomon with the crown With which his mother crowned him On the day of his wedding, The day of the gladness of his heart.”
The Mochin are called ‘עטרה’ ‘crown,’ and when the son, Zeir Anpin, inherits the Mochin that comes from Chokmah and Binah that is called Father and Mother, he can enjoy the pleasures of the Garden of Eden.
