Daily Zohar # 3338 – Emor – The Concealed Light
Hebrew translation:
94. דַּבֵּר אֶל בְּנֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל וְאָמַרְתָּ אֲלֵהֶם מוֹעֲדֵי ה’ אֲשֶׁר תִּקְרְאוּ אֹתָם מִקְרָאֵי קֹדֶשׁ אֵלֶּה הֵם מוֹעֲדָי. רַבִּי יִצְחָק פָּתַח, (בראשית א) וַיִּקְרָא אֱלֹהִים לָאוֹר יוֹם וְגוֹ’. שָׁנִינוּ, הָאוֹר שֶׁהָיָה בָּרִאשׁוֹנָה הָיָה מֵאִיר מִסּוֹף הָעוֹלָם עַד סוֹף הָעוֹלָם, כְּשֶׁהִסְתַּכֵּל הַקָּדוֹשׁ בָּרוּךְ הוּא בָּרְשָׁעִים שֶׁעֲתִידִים לַעֲמֹד בָּעוֹלָם, גָּנַז אוֹתוֹ לַצַּדִּיקִים לָעוֹלָם הַבָּא. זֶהוּ שֶׁכָּתוּב (איוב לח) וְיִמָּנַע מֵרְשָׁעִים אוֹרָם. וְכָתוּב (תהלים צז) אוֹר זָרֻעַ לַצַּדִּיק.

Rav Yeva Sava says in his book that “קָדוֹשׁ קָדוֹשׁ קָדוֹשׁ”,” Holy, Holy, Holy” is for the written Torah that is Zeir Anpin that includes the three lines of Chessed, Gevurah, and Tiferet. Then the “בָּרוּךְ כְּבוֹד יְהוָה מִמְּקוֹמוֹ”, “Blessed is the glory of YHVH from His place!” is at the level of the Prophets that are Netzach and Hod of Zeir Anpin.
Then “יִמְלֹךְ יְהוָה לְעוֹלָם.”, “YHVH shall reign forever…” is for Malchut.
The connection to Malchut is with the word ‘reign’, ‘יִמְלֹךְ’ and ‘מלכות’ Malchut means ‘Kingdom’.
The secret of having a complete connection is ‘קדושה, ברכה, ומלכות’, Holiness, Blessing and Kingdom.

Genesis 1:5
“וַיִּקְרָא אֱלֹהִים לָאוֹר יוֹם וְלַחֹשֶׁךְ קָרָא לָיְלָה וַיְהִי עֶרֶב וַיְהִי בֹקֶר יוֹם אֶחָד.”
“God called the light Day, and the darkness He called Night. So the evening and the morning, one day.”
Rabbi Yitzchak opened a discourse with this verse and said that the first light filled up the whole world from one end to its other end. The Zohar explains that this spiritual light connected Malchut to Binah and gave people the ability to see the future (See Zohar Beresheet 1 #348).
Job 38:15
“וְיִמָּנַע מֵרְשָׁעִים אוֹרָם וּזְרוֹעַ רָמָה תִּשָּׁבֵר.”
“Light is withheld from the wicked, and their upraised arm is broken.”
When the Holy One Blessed be He saw three generations of wicked (Generation of Enosh, generation of the Flood, and generation of the tower of Babel) that would be in the world, he concealed the special light and reserved it for the Tzadikim. This Light is called ‘אור הגנוז’ (Ohr Haganuz),’the Concealed Light’
Psalms 97:11
“אוֹר זָרֻעַ לַצַּדִּיק וּלְיִשְׁרֵי לֵב שִׂמְחָה.”
“Light is sown for the righteous, And gladness for the upright in heart.”
Lesson;
The Ohr Haganuz connects all the worlds through a narrow and concealed path (Zohar Beresheet 1 Hasulam #353). This is the ‘Light that is sown for the righteous’
Psalms 97:11
“אוֹר זָרֻעַ לַצַּדִּיק וּלְיִשְׁרֵי לֵב שִׂמְחָה.”
“Light is sown for the righteous, And gladness for the upright in heart.”
The Zohar says that if this Light didn’t have a connection in this world, it would have collapsed because through this line God sustains the world. This light is available to those who study Torah after midnight.
