Daily Zohar # 3455 – Ha’azinu – I will not cast them away
Hebrew translation:
215. רַבִּי אֶלְעָזָר פָּתַח, (ויקרא כו) וְאַף גַּם זֹאת בִּהְיוֹתָם בְּאֶרֶץ אֹיְבֵיהֶם וְגוֹ’. זַכָּאִים הֵם יִשְׂרָאֵל עַל כָּל אֻמּוֹת עוֹבְדֵי כוֹכָבִים וּמַזָּלוֹת, שֶׁאַף עַל גַּב שֶׁהִרְגִּיזוּ לִפְנֵי אֲדוֹנָם, הַקָּדוֹשׁ בָּרוּךְ הוּא לֹא רוֹצֶה לַעֲזֹב אוֹתָם. שֶׁבְּכָל מָקוֹם שֶׁגָּלוּ בֵּין הָעַמִּים, הַקָּדוֹשׁ בָּרוּךְ הוּא עִמָּהֶם בַּגָּלוּת. זֶהוּ שֶׁכָּתוּב וְאַף גַּם זֹאת בִּהְיוֹתָם בְּאֶרֶץ אֹיְבֵיהֶם וְגוֹ’.
216. רַבִּי אַבָּא אָמַר, וְאַף גַּם זֹאת בִּהְיוֹתָם. בֹּא רְאֵה כַּמָּה הַחֲבִיבוּת שֶׁל הַקָּדוֹשׁ בָּרוּךְ הוּא כְּלַפֵּי יִשְׂרָאֵל, שֶׁאַף עַל גַּב שֶׁגּוֹרְמִים לִגְלוֹת בֵּין הָעַמִּים, הַשְּׁכִינָה לֹא סָרָה מֵהֶם לְעוֹלָמִים. שֶׁלֹּא תֹאמַר שֶׁהֵם לְבַדָּם בַּגָּלוּת נִמְצָאִים, אֶלָּא – וְאַף גַּם זֹאת, עִמָּהֶם נִמְצָאִים. זֶהוּ שֶׁכָּתוּב וְאַף גַּם זֹאת בִּהְיוֹתָם בְּאֶרֶץ אֹיְבֵיהֶם וְגוֹ’.

Zohar Ha’azinu
#214
Deuteronomy 32:4
“הַצּוּר תָּמִים פָּעֳלוֹ כִּי כָל דְּרָכָיו מִשְׁפָּט אֵל אֱמוּנָה וְאֵין עָוֶל צַדִּיק וְיָשָׁר הוּא.”
“He is the Rock, His work is perfect; For all His ways are justice, A God of truth and without injustice; Righteous and upright is He.”
After explaining the righteous ways of Hashem, Moses closes the verse with ‘Righteous and upright is He’ because He set everything as they should be. The wicked are responsible for losing the blessings that they could receive if they were not corrupted.
Then Moses scolded the people for their lack of appreciation for all the good that their Father did for them.
Deuteronomy 32:6
“הֲ לַיְהוָה תִּגְמְלוּ זֹאת עַם נָבָל וְלֹא חָכָם הֲלוֹא הוּא אָבִיךָ קָּנֶךָ הוּא עָשְׂךָ וַיְכֹנְנֶךָ.”
“Do you thus deal with YHVH, O foolish, and unwise people? Is He not your Father, who bought you? Has He not made you and established you?”
#215
Rabbi Elazar says that even though the Israelites have sinned, angered their master, and went to Exile, the Holy One Blessed be He, doesn’t want to leave them alone among the nations of idol worshippers.
Leviticus 26:44
“וְאַף גַּם זֹאת בִּהְיוֹתָם בְּאֶרֶץ אֹיְבֵיהֶם לֹא מְאַסְתִּים וְלֹא גְעַלְתִּים לְכַלֹּתָם לְהָפֵר בְּרִיתִי אִתָּם כִּי אֲנִי יְהוָה אֱלֹהֵיהֶם.”
“Yet for all that, when they are in the land of their enemies, I will not cast them away, nor shall I abhor them, to utterly destroy them and break My covenant with them; for I am YHVH their God.”
#216
Rabbi Aba explains that ‘for all that(זֹאת)’ tells us that the Shechina that is called ‘זֹאת’ is always with us wherever we are in exile.
Lesson;
The Shechina is called ‘זאת’, which means ‘This’, ‘That’. Since we are the children of God (Deuteronomy 14:1), He sent the Shechina to be with us until the Final Redemption.
More studies about the connection of זֹאת to the Shechina.
We can do it only with ‘this’
Teruma – ‘Who’ loves ‘this’
Set your heart and trust in ‘This’
This = 600,000
Use ‘this’ to deflate your ego
This+Torah = 600,000
