Daily Zohar # 1443 – Vayakhel – Re-Cycle
Hebrew translation:
15. מִשּׁוּם שֶׁהַלַּיְלָה נֶחֱלָק לִשְׁלֹשָׁה צְדָדִים בִּשְׁתֵּים עֶשְׂרֵה שָׁעוֹת שֶׁהָיוּ רְשׁוּמִים בּוֹ, וְאִם נוֹסָפוֹת שְׁעוֹת הַלַּיְלָה, אוֹתָן שָׁעוֹת שֶׁנּוֹסְפוּ הֵן שֶׁל הַיּוֹם, וְלֹא נֶחֱשָׁבוֹת מֵהַלַּיְלָה, פְּרָט לִשְׁתֵּים עֶשְׂרֵה שֶׁהֵן שֶׁלּוֹ. וְאוֹתָן שְׁתֵּים עֶשְׂרֵה נֶחֱלָקוֹת לִשְׁלֹשָׁה צְדָדִים, וּשְׁלֹשָׁה מַחֲנוֹת שֶׁל מַלְאָכִים קְדוֹשִׁים נֶחְלְקוּ (הִתְמַנּוּ) בְּאוֹתָם שְׁלֹשָׁה צְדָדִים.
16. מַחֲנֶה רִאשׁוֹן מְמֻנֶּה בְּאַרְבַּע שָׁעוֹת רִאשׁוֹנוֹת שֶׁל רֵאשִׁית הַלַּיְלָה לְשַׁבֵּחַ אֶת אֲדוֹנָם. וּמַה הֵם אוֹמְרִים? (תהלים כד) לַה’ הָאָרֶץ וּמְלֹאָהּ וְגוֹ’, כִּי הוּא עַל יַמִּים יְסָדָהּ וְגוֹ’, מִי יַעֲלֶה בְהַר ה’ וְגוֹ’, נְקִי כַפַּיִם וּבַר לֵבָב וְגוֹ’. מָה הַטַּעַם שֶׁל זֶה? מִשּׁוּם שֶׁכַּאֲשֶׁר הַלַּיְלָה פּוֹרֵשׂ כְּנָפָיו עַל הָעוֹלָם, אָז כָּל בְּנֵי הָעוֹלָם טוֹעֲמִים טַעַם הַמָּוֶת וְיוֹצֵאת נִשְׁמָתָם לַעֲלוֹת לְמַעְלָה, וְאוֹתָם מַלְאָכִים עוֹמְדִים וְאוֹמְרִים, מִי יַעֲלֶה בְהַר ה’. הַר ה’ – זֶה הַר הַבַּיִת. מְקוֹם קָדְשׁוֹ – זֶה עֶזְרַת יִשְׂרָאֵל. כְּמוֹ שֶׁלְּמַעְלָה, כָּךְ גַּם לְמַטָּה.
Zohar Vayakhel
Together with my wife, I am helping my daughter (Miriam, 11) with a big school project. She needs to research the subject of recycling and make a presentation. While printing, cutting, gluing the information she prepared I thought about the daily Zohar and that I won’t have time to write commentary today. It came to my mind to ask you to ‘recycle’ previous commentaries and study them again. But the fact is that there is no recycling when dealing with Light because the more we ‘use’ it the greater it becomes. When we share it, it actually grows. On a material level, there is process and waste that can not be recycled, except for few materials like glass etc.
If we share ‘light’ with two people and each of them share with other two then from one source we can spread and potentially reach unlimited number of people.
Take a pencil and a note book, a smartphone, a computer or anything that you can communicate with others and Share a wisdom or two that you have learned on the Daily Zohar or from any other teacher.
You can make the world a better place for YOURSELF because as you spread more light the world around you becomes brighter.
I am so busy with my day job, family and new DZ projects and am not able to write every day. You will still get a Zohar section with recording everyday to keep the promise of the website of delivering DAILY ZOHAR.
I use the word ‘Recycle’ in the title but not as reference to reduce waste and reuse to save the environment but with the meaning of RE-Cycle. It is about keeping the renewal process of cycling the light in our lives and in that of others. We should study and share the wisdom of the Zohar so we can receive the light back to us many times fold.
Love to all
