Daily Zohar # 1475 – Metzora – Swords
Hebrew translation:
5. רַבִּי אֶלְעָזָר פָּתַח, (קהלת ט) וְכַצִּפֳּרִים הָאֲחֻזוֹת בַּפָּח כָּהֵם יוּקָשִׁים בְּנֵי הָאָדָם. הַפָּסוּק הַזֶּה הֲרֵי נִתְבָּאֵר. אֲבָל בֹּא רְאֵה, בְּנֵי אָדָם לֹא יוֹדְעִים וְלֹא שׁוֹמְעִים וְלֹא מִסְתַּכְּלִים בִּרְצוֹן אֲדוֹנָם, וְהַכָּרוֹז כָּל יוֹם קוֹרֵא לִפְנֵיהֶם, וְאֵין מִי שֶׁמַּקְשִׁיב לוֹ, וְאֵין מִי שֶׁמֵּעִיר אֶת רוּחוֹ לַעֲבוֹדַת אֲדוֹנוֹ.

Zohar Metzora
Isaiah 34:6 (Reading the entire chapter is recommended)
“חֶרֶב לַיהוָה מָלְאָה דָם, הֻדַּשְׁנָה מֵחֵלֶב, מִדַּם כָּרִים וְעַתּוּדִים, מֵחֵלֶב כִּלְיוֹת אֵילִים: כִּי זֶבַח לַיהוָה בְּבָצְרָה, וְטֶבַח גָּדוֹל בְּאֶרֶץ אֱדוֹם.”
“The sword of YHVH is filled with blood, It is sated with fat, with the blood of lambs and goats, With the fat of the kidneys of rams. For YHVH has a sacrifice in Bozrah And a great slaughter in the land of Edom.”
The prophet tells about the day that God will come to cleanse the land from its impurity.
The Zohar explains that the sword is the power of the evil speech, “Lashon Ha’ra”. The tongue is like a sword and when it is used for evil speech it creates a sword of judgment that is used to bring judgment on the person.
Deuteronomy 32:42
“אַשְׁכִּיר חִצַּי מִדָּם, {ס} וְחַרְבִּי תֹּאכַל בָּשָׂר; {ר} מִדַּם חָלָל וְשִׁבְיָה, {ס} מֵרֹאשׁ פַּרְעוֹת אוֹיֵב”
I usually use a known and common English translations but what I found was ridiculous.
“From blood I will ‘rent’ my arrows and my sword will eat flesh from the blood of fallen and captured, from the head of those who create chaos” (Translated by ZN)
God uses the swords of judgment that came out of the mouths of people. God will use the evil and negative forces created by the people to cleanse the world.
This is the secret of the plague of leprosy that God brings to the people. When the negativity is ‘visible’ then it’s easier to clean it with the light.
Continued in the next DZ.
