282. (A) Jacob said, "Then shall your light break forth (Heb. Yibaka) like the morning" (Yeshayah 58:8), BECAUSE YIBAKA IS SPELLED WITH THE SAME LETTERS AS JACOB. The other righteous say, "and Hashem shall guide you continually, and satisfy..." (Ibid. 11). King David said, "No weapon that is formed against you shall prosper," because he was appointed over all the weapons in the world. Happy is the lot of the man who merited all this. Happy is the lot of the righteous in this world and in the World to Come. Of them it is written, "Your people also shall be all righteous..." (Yeshayah 60:21).

(B) Ra'aya Meheimna (the Faithful Shepherd). It is a commandment to take a Lulav on that day with its kinds. We explained this secret, as did the friends. Just as the Holy One, blessed be He, takes Yisrael during those days and rejoices in them, so do Yisrael take the Holy One, blessed be He, as their portion and rejoice in Him. This is the secret of the Lulav and the kinds in it, the secret of the form of man, NAMELY THE SECRET OF THE SEVEN SFIROT, CHESED, GVURAH, TIFERET, NETZACH, HOD, YESOD AND MALCHUT. THE THREE MYRTLE BRANCHES CORRESPOND TO CHESED, GVURAH AND TIFERET, THE TWO WILLOW BRANCHES TO NETZACH AND HOD, THE LULAV TO YESOD AND THE ETROG TO MALCHUT. We already learned this. End of Ra'aya Meheimna (the Faithful Shepherd).
