Daily Zohar # 3639 – Emor – Then the trees of the woods shall rejoice
Hebrew translation:
149. וְזֶה שֶׁבַע שַׁבָּתוֹת תְּמִימוֹת. אַחַר שֶׁעוֹלוֹת שֶׁבַע הַשַּׁבָּתוֹת הַלָּלוּ, בָּא הַמֶּלֶךְ הַקָּדוֹשׁ לְהִזְדַּוֵּג עִם כְּנֶסֶת יִשְׂרָאֵל, וְנִתְּנָה הַתּוֹרָה. וְאָז הִתְעַטֵּר הַמֶּלֶךְ בְּיִחוּד שָׁלֵם, וְנִמְצָא אֶחָד לְמַעְלָה וּלְמַטָּה. וּכְשֶׁמִּתְעוֹרֵר הַמֶּלֶךְ הַקָּדוֹשׁ וּמַגִּיעַ זְמַן הַתּוֹרָה, כָּל אוֹתָם הָאִילָנוֹת שֶׁמְּבַכְּרִים אֶת הַפֵּרוֹת שֶׁלָּהֶם, מַעֲלִים שִׁירָה. וּמַה הֵם אוֹמְרִים בְּשָׁעָה שֶׁלּוֹקְטִים אוֹתָם? פּוֹתְחִים וְאוֹמְרִים, (תהלים קג) ה’ בַּשָּׁמַיִם הֵכִין כִּסְאוֹ וּמַלְכוּתוֹ בַּכֹּל מָשָׁלָה. (שם לו) ה’ בְּהַשָּׁמַיִם חַסְדֶּךָ. וְכָתוּב (ישעיה נה) וְכָל עֲצֵי הַשָּׂדֶה יִמְחֲאוּ כָף.
150. עוֹד פָּתַח וְאָמַר, (תהלים צח) מִזְמוֹר שִׁירוּ לַה’ שִׁיר חָדָשׁ כִּי נִפְלָאוֹת עָשָׂה. שִׁיר חָדָשׁ הוּא נִקְרָא. מִשּׁוּם כָּךְ בְּהַקְרִיבְכֶם מִנְחָה חֲדָשָׁה. שָׁם מִנְחַת קְנָאֹת, כָּאן מִנְחָה חֲדָשָׁה. חֲדָשָׁה, שֶׁחִדּוּשׁ הַכֹּל (הַכַּלָּה) יֵשׁ כָּאן. קֶשֶׁר שֶׁל הַכֹּל שֶׁל מַעְלָה וּמַטָּה, קֶשֶׁר הָאֱמוּנָה, וְלָכֵן יַעֲקֹב הַשָּׁלֵם הִתְעַטֵּר בְּעַטְרוֹתָיו, וְנִתְּנָה הַתּוֹרָה.

Zohar Emor
#148
The woman that goes astray and defiles herself brings a barley meal as an offering. The illumination of the Congregation of Israel is found in the barley meal and that brings the punishment on the woman.
Numbers 25:13
“וְהָיְתָה לּוֹ וּלְזַרְעוֹ אַחֲרָיו בְּרִית כְּהֻנַּת עוֹלָם תַּחַת אֲשֶׁר קִנֵּא לֵאלֹהָיו וַיְכַפֵּר עַל בְּנֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל.”
“and it shall be to him and his descendants after him a covenant of an everlasting priesthood, because he was jealous for his God, and made atonement for the children of Israel.’ ”
‘Jealousy’ is in Malchut, and those who corrupt his covenant (Brit ברית) of Yessod, jealousy that is Malchut rise up to punish him.
Tenth of the Omer of barley that is grounded in the meal is taken out and sifted through thirteen sieves.

Leviticus 23:15
“וּסְפַרְתֶּם לָכֶם מִמָּחֳרַת הַשַּׁבָּת מִיּוֹם הֲבִיאֲכֶם אֶת עֹמֶר הַתְּנוּפָה שֶׁבַע שַׁבָּתוֹת תְּמִימֹת תִּהְיֶינָה.”
“‘And you shall count for yourselves from the day after the Sabbath, from the day that you brought the sheaf of the wave offering: seven Sabbaths shall be completed.”
After these seven Shabbats pass, the Holy King comes for unification with the Congregation of Israel. It happens after counting 49 days, during which Zeir Anpin is built. Then the Torah is given, and the Holy King, Zeir Anpin, is crowned with a complete unification of upper and lower.
The illumination of the union causes the trees to bring out their first fruits, and they start to sing. When their fruits are picked up they say; Psalms 103:19 “יְהוָה בַּשָּׁמַיִם הֵכִין כִּסְאוֹ וּמַלְכוּתוֹ בַּכֹּל מָשָׁלָה.”
“YHVH has established His throne in heaven, And His kingdom rules overall.”
It means that the throne that is Malchut was built and prepared in the heavens that is Zeir Anpin by the 49 levels. Then the ‘Kingdom,’ Malchut rules overall. Then it says Psalms 36:6 “יְהוָה בְּהַשָּׁמַיִם חַסְדֶּךָ אֱמוּנָתְךָ עַד שְׁחָקִים.”
“Your mercy, O YHVH, is in the heavens; Your faithfulness (Chessed) reaches to the clouds.”
This verse tells us that the Light of Chassadim is drawn down from Zeir Anpin to Malchut. It also said
Isaiah 55:12
“כִּי בְשִׂמְחָה תֵצֵאוּ וּבְשָׁלוֹם תּוּבָלוּן הֶהָרִים וְהַגְּבָעוֹת יִפְצְחוּ לִפְנֵיכֶם רִנָּה וְכָל עֲצֵי הַשָּׂדֶה יִמְחֲאוּ כָף.”
“For you shall go out with joy, And be led out with peace; The mountains and the hills Shall break forth into singing before you, And all the trees of the field shall clap their hands.”
The Trees are the lights of Malchut called ‘Field.’ ‘shall clap their hands’ for the unification. That is why Rabbi Shimon opened this study (#145 above), saying (1 Chronicles 16:33) “Then the trees of the woods shall rejoice before YHVH, For He is coming to judge the earth.”

Psalms 98:1
“מִזְמוֹר שִׁירוּ לַיהוָה שִׁיר חָדָשׁ כִּי נִפְלָאוֹת עָשָׂה הוֹשִׁיעָה לּוֹ יְמִינוֹ וּזְרוֹעַ קָדְשׁוֹ.”
“A Psalm. Oh, sing to YHVH a new song! For He has done marvelous things; His right hand and His holy arm have gained Him the victory.”
The ‘new sons’ are sung when the fruits are picked up from the trees.
Numbers 28:26
“וּבְיוֹם הַבִּכּוּרִים בְּהַקְרִיבְכֶם מִנְחָה חֲדָשָׁה לַיהוָה בְּשָׁבֻעֹתֵיכֶם מִקְרָא קֹדֶשׁ יִהְיֶה לָכֶם כָּל מְלֶאכֶת עֲבֹדָה לֹא תַעֲשׂוּ.”
“‘Also, on the day of the first fruits (Shavuot), when you bring a new grain offering to YHVH at your Feast of Weeks, you shall have a holy convocation. You shall do no customary work.”
On the Holiday of Shavuot, the Torah asks us to bring a ‘new grain offering’ to indicate that the Malchut is rebuilt from the Sefirot of Zeir Anpin that is the bond of the bride above and below. This bond of faith is a complete state of Jacob, who is Zeir Anpin. He is crowned, and the Torah is given.
