Zohar Chayei Sarah
Continued from previous DZ
#188
When Rav Dimi came, he said, This portion I heard its explanation, and I do not remember. They said, That the strong upper ones, that is, the upper levels, did not make it available for revelation, and we, what shall we say. The meaning: at the time that the sages of truth explain the secrets of the verses, behold, those levels of which the verses speak come themselves to those sages at that time, and make themselves available that they may bring them to revelation. Without their assistance, they would not have the power to reveal any secret. And this is what Rav Dimi said: that the strong upper ones did not make themselves available and did not assist in revealing the verses of this portion. Rabbi Yehuda arose and said, In the yeshiva of our friends, the masters of the Mishnah, the portion is revealed.
Notes:
Rav Dimi could not recall the explanation, for the strong upper levels did not make themselves available to assist in its revelation. Rabbi Yehuda said that among the masters of the Mishnah the portion is revealed.

They arose and went, he and Rabbi Yisa and Rabbi Chiya. They found Rabbi Elazar the son of Rabbi Shimon, and he was revealing the secret of the tefillin. They entered before him and said to him, With what is our master occupied? He said to them, The reason of the tefillin I am saying. For happy is the man who lays tefillin and knows their reason.
Notes:
They found Rabbi Elazar revealing the secret of the tefillin. He said he was explaining their reason, and happy is the one who lays them and knows that reason.
