Hebrew translation:

140. וּבֹא וּרְאֵה, בְּכָל מָקוֹם שֶׁכָּתוּב וַיֹּאמֶר סְתָם אוֹ וַיִּקְרָא סְתָם, הוּא מַלְאַךְ הַבְּרִית וְלֹא אַחֵר. וַיֹּאמֶר – שֶׁכָּתוּב (שמות טו) וַיֹּאמֶר אִם שָׁמֹעַ תִּשְׁמַע וגו’. וַיֹּאמֶר, וְלֹא אָמַר מִיהוּ. וַיִּקְרָא – שֶׁכָּתוּב (ויקרא א) וַיִּקְרָא אֶל מֹשֶׁה, וְלֹא אָמַר מִי הָיָה. אָמַר – שֶׁכָּתוּב (שמות כד) וְאֶל מֹשֶׁה אָמַר וְגוֹ’, וְלֹא אָמַר מִי הָיָה. [אַף כָּךְ שֶׁכָּתוּב שׁוֹב אָשׁוּב. וַיֹּאמֶר סְתָם, וְלֹא אָמַר מִי הָיָה.] אֶלָּא בְּכָל אֵלֶּה מַלְאָךְ שֶׁל הַבְּרִית הָיָה, וְהַכֹּל נֶאֱמַר בַּקָּבָּ”ה. וְלָכֵן כָּתוּב וַיֹּאמֶר שׁוֹב אָשׁוּב אֵלֶיךָ וְגוֹ’, וְהִנֵּה בֵן וגו’.
141. וְהִנֵּה בֵן לְשָׂרָה אִשְׁתְּךָ. מָה הַטַּעַם לֹא כָתוּב וְהִנֵּה בֵן לְךָ? אֶלָּא כְּדֵי שֶׁלֹּא יַחְשֹׁב שֶׁהוּא מֵהָגָר כְּמוֹ בָּרִאשׁוֹנָה. רַבִּי שִׁמְעוֹן פָּתַח וְאָמַר, (מלאכי א) בֵּן יְכַבֵּד אָב וְעֶבֶד אֲדֹנָיו. בֵּן יְכַבֵּד אָב – זֶה יִצְחָק אֶת אַבְרָהָם.

Zohar Vayera
Continued from previous DZ

#140
Exodus 15:26 “וַיֹּאמֶר אִם שָׁמוֹעַ תִּשְׁמַע לְקוֹל יְהוָה אֱלֹהֶיךָ” “And He said, “If you will listen carefully to the voice of YHVH your God.”
Leviticus 1:1 “וַיִּקְרָא אֶל מֹשֶׁה” “and he called Moses.”
Wherever it is simply written “and he said” or “and he called” without telling who said or who called, it refers to the angel of the covenant, meaning the Shechina, and no other. When it says, “I will certainly return to you… shall have a son” without telling who, it is the angel of the covenant, and all is said about the Holy One Blessed be He. That is why it says in the same verse, “Sarah shall have a son,” which comes from the Holy One Blessed be He.

#141
He asks, why does it say “a son to your wife Sarah,” and not just “you shall have a son.” He explains that Hashem told it this way so Abraham won’t think that the son may come from Hagar, his maidservant that delivered his son, Ishmael.
Malachi 1:6
“בֵּן יְכַבֵּד אָב וְעֶבֶד אֲדֹנָיו וְאִם אָב אָנִי אַיֵּה כְבוֹדִי וְאִם אֲדוֹנִים אָנִי אַיֵּה מוֹרָאִי אָמַר יְהוָה צְבָאוֹת לָכֶם הַכֹּהֲנִים בּוֹזֵי שְׁמִי וַאֲמַרְתֶּם בַּמֶּה בָזִינוּ אֶת שְׁמֶךָ.”
“A son honors his father, And a servant his master. If then I am the Father, Where is My honor? And if I am a Master, Where is My reverence? Says the LORD of hosts To you priests who despise My name. Yet you say, ‘In what way have we despised Your name?'”
Rabbi Shimon says that the “Son honors his father” from this verse refers to Isaac, who brought honor to his father, Abraham.

Friday would be a good day to make a ** Donation, especially if you didn’t donate in the past week. Giving on Friday, which is an aspect of Yessod, expands the vessel for the Light and honor of Shabbat.
** Your donation doesn’t have to be given to the same place every week. You can alternate or split your donation among those who benefit you spiritually.
