Daily Zohar 4308
Hebrew translation:
285. אוֹתָן דְּמָעוֹת כְּשֶׁנּוֹפְלוֹת לְתוֹךְ הַיָּם, נִשְׁמָע קוֹל בֵּין הַיָּם עַד מְעָרַת הַמַּכְפֵּלָה. מִקּוֹל נַהֲמָתָם שֶׁנִּשְׁמָע שָׁם כְּשֶׁנִּכְנָסִים לְתוֹךְ הַיָּם, מִתְעוֹרְרִים אָבוֹת הָרִאשׁוֹנִים, וְקָמוּ, וְחָשְׁבוּ שֶׁהַקָּדוֹשׁ בָּרוּךְ הוּא רוֹצֶה לַהֲפֹךְ אֶת הָעוֹלָם, עַד שֶׁקּוֹל יוֹצֵא וְאוֹמֵר לָהֶם: אַל תְּפַחֲדוּ אֲהוּבִים קְדוֹשִׁים, בִּגְלַלְכֶם זוֹכֵר הַקָּדוֹשׁ בָּרוּךְ הוּא אֶת בְּנֵיכֶם, וְהוּא רוֹצֶה לִגְאֹל אוֹתָם, וְאַתֶּם תִּרְאוּ.
286. כָּל הָאַלְפָא בֵּיתוֹת מְשֻׁלָּבוֹת וּמִצְטָרְפוֹת אֵלֶּה בְאֵלֶּה, וּמִתְחַבְּרוֹת בְּצֵרוּף הַשֵּׁם הַקָּדוֹשׁ. כֵּיוָן שֶׁנִּרְאוּ הָאוֹתִיּוֹת בְּצֵרוּף זֶה, אֵלֶּה נִגְנָזִים, וְיוֹצְאִים אֲחֵרִים, וְכֵן כֻּלָּם. אֵלֶּה נִגְנָזִים, וְאֵלֶּה יוֹצְאִים, כֻּלָּם לִפְנִים בַּחֲלַל אוֹתָם כַּפְתּוֹרִים.

He wants to shake the world. And the waters rise from the other abyss and want to cover the world. These are the two tears that the Holy One, Blessed be He, drops down into the great sea (#273). They boil more than any fire in the world, and due to the effect of their boiling, they freeze the water in the frozen sea. The red tear that falls into the abyss called סַגְדּוֹ” ן freezes the waters (#274) because it evokes the control of the Left, and the control of the Left without the Right freezes the sea. If the Almighty, who is the middle line, had not hinted by means of a curtain that this alludes to a wind blowing from the side of Abraham, which is Chessed, and from his pillar, that is the Right line to unite with the Left and show his illumination on the world; the world would not have been able to stand even for a moment.
#285
When these tears fall into the sea, the voice is heard between the waves of the sea as far as the Cave of the Machpelah in Hebron. The patriarchs wake up from the sound made when the tears enter the sea. The patriarchs stand up, and think, that the Holy One, Blessed be He, wants to turn the world upside down until a voice comes out and tells them, do not fear, holy beloved. For your sake, the Holy One, Blessed be He remembers your children and wants to redeem them, as you will see.

All the letters integrate and join each other and connect with the combination of the Holy Name. After the letters in this combination have been seen, they are concealed, and others come out and join another combination. As so with all of them, these are hidden, and those come out, and they are all inside the space of the כַּפְתּוֹרִים (Kaftorim).
Lesson;
Kaftorim כַּפְתּוֹרִים means buttons, but it is the aspect of ‘connectors’ of Light to Malchut. This term appears in the Torah’s description of making the Menorah (Exodus 37:19).
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.
