Daily Zohar # 4462 – Beshalach – For I am YHVH, I do not change
Daily Zohar 4462
Hebrew translation:
171. אָמַר רַבִּי יְהוּדָה, מִכָּאן (מלאכי ג) אֲנִי ה’ לֹא שָׁנִיתִי. לֹא דִלַּגְתִּי לְמָקוֹם אַחֵר, בִּי נִכְלָל הַכֹּל. שְׁנֵי הַגְּוָנִים הַלָּלוּ נִכְלְלוּ בִי. מִשּׁוּם כָּךְ הַכֹּל נִרְאֶה בְּדֶרֶךְ יָשָׁר, וְאַף עַל גַּב שֶׁהָאוֹתִיּוֹת אֲחוּזוֹת לְצַד זֶה וּלְצַד זֶה, הֵן כְּתוּבוֹת כְּסִדְרָן.

Zohar Beshalach
Continued from previous DZ
#170
So it is with the Holy One, Blessed be He: He is always complete on all sides, that is, on the Right and Left sides. However, He is seen only with a radiant facial expression. Therefore, foolish and wicked people do not worry about his reaction and judgments. But the righteous wisely say, ‘The King is complete, and even though His face appears bright, judgment is concealed within it.’ Therefore, one must be cautious of Him. This explains the question of why the seventy-two letters of the middle line were not written half in straight order and half in reverse to include within it the judgments of the Left side. It is because the judgments of the Left are concealed within this line, and his face is always joyful and shines like the Lights of the Right, and therefore, His letters are written in straight order only, like the Right.
#171
Rabbi Yehuda said that from here, we can resolve the question of why the seventy-two letters of the middle line were not written half in straight order and half in reverse. It is written,
Malachi 3:6
“כִּי אֲנִי יְהוָה לֹא שָׁנִיתִי וְאַתֶּם בְּנֵי יַעֲקֹב לֹא כְלִיתֶם.”
“For I am YHVH, I do not change; Therefore, you are not consumed, O sons of Jacob.”
This means that I did not leap to another place. Even though the two lines are included, I have not changed myself to leap to the aspect of the Left, but I remained in the aspect of the Right. Everything is included in Me; the two shades of white (Right) and red (Left) in Me, that is, Chassadim, are included. The illumination of the Left is not seen in Me but only in Malchut. Therefore, all the letters of the middle line appear straight. Even though the letters are attached to both sides, that is, to the Right and left; they are nevertheless written in their order, straightly.
