Zohar Tzav
Continued from previous DZ
#191
The smell of the sacrifice sustains everything in existence in the world. The priest brings all offerings, and for that reason, the seven filling days (שבעת ימי מילואים) become complete. The seven days correspond to the seven sefirot of Chessed, Gevurah, Tiferet, Netzach, Hod, Yessod, and Malchut, and when they are in a complete state, everyone is blessed in his work, and joy and blessings are found above and below.

Isaiah 25:1
“יְהוָה אֱלֹהַי אַתָּה אֲרוֹמִמְךָ אוֹדֶה שִׁמְךָ כִּי עָשִׂיתָ פֶּלֶא עֵצוֹת מֵרָחוֹק אֱמוּנָה אֹמֶן.”
“O YHVH, You are my God. I will exalt You, I will praise Your name, For You have done wonderful things; Your counsels from afar are faithfulness and truth.”
“You are YHVH God”, means that the people should give thanks to the Holy Name and praise Him for everything. And from where comes his praise?. As explained, it is from the depth of all, which is Keter, as it is said, “For You have done wonderful things (פֶּלֶא also, miracle)”. It is written; “וַיִּקְרָא שְׁמוֹ פֶּלֶא יוֹעֵץ” “And His name will be called Wonderful, Counselor” (Isaiah 9:5), referring to Keter.
Jeremiah 31:2
“מֵרָחוֹק יְהוָה נִרְאָה לִי וְאַהֲבַת עוֹלָם אֲהַבְתִּיךְ עַל כֵּן מְשַׁכְתִּיךְ חָסֶד.”
“YHVH has appeared to me from afar, saying: “Yes, I have loved you with an everlasting love; Therefore, with lovingkindness, I have drawn you.”
Proverbs 31:14
“הָיְתָה כָּאֳנִיּוֹת סוֹחֵר מִמֶּרְחָק תָּבִיא לַחְמָהּ.”
“She is like the merchant ships, She brings her food from afar.”
“From afar” means Chokmah, and the advice is Binah, that received from Chokmah.

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 faithfulness and without injustice; Righteous and upright is He.”
It was explained “faith” is at night, and Malchut is also called “night”, and “faith”. as written;
Psalm 92:3
“לְהַגִּיד בַּבֹּקֶר חַסְדֶּךָ וֶאֱמוּנָתְךָ בַּלֵּילוֹת.”
“To declare Your lovingkindness in the morning, And Your faithfulness every night,”
Lamentations 3:23
“חֲדָשִׁים לַבְּקָרִים רַבָּה אֱמוּנָתֶךָ.”
“They are new every morning; Great is Your faithfulness.”
In the future, the Holy One, Blessed be He, will purify Israel from their afflictions, as it is written;
Ezekiel 36:25
“וְזָרַקְתִּי עֲלֵיכֶם מַיִם טְהוֹרִים וּטְהַרְתֶּם מִכֹּל טֻמְאוֹתֵיכֶם וּמִכָּל גִּלּוּלֵיכֶם אֲטַהֵר אֶתְכֶם.”
“Then I will sprinkle clean water on you, and you shall be clean; I will cleanse you from all your filthiness and from all your idols.”
Bless is Hashem forever, Amen, and Amen.

Lesson;
This concludes the study of Tzav.
The portion is about the work of the priests, drawing light from the upper sefirot to cleanse our vessels and allow the Light to fulfill it. The last verse quoted by the Zohar teaches us that when we arrive at the Final Redemption, Hashem will cleanse the impurities that we couldn’t cleanse ourselves. We need to have merits for that cleansing, and until then, we should work to reach a higher level of purification so the water of cleansing won’t be wasted on cleansing but turn into Light in our vessels.
