Chasidut zu Jeschijahu 51:16

How was Jeremiah to do all this? God did not grant him might nor power, but merely his mouth and the capacity for the divine to flow through him. He even caused His holiness to flow, via the prophet, onto the non-sentient world, which does not have ears with which to hear the words of the prophet and the rebuke which he issued to human beings. What does the world itself have to do with observing shabbat or the ordinances, which humans violate and the prophets chastise about? And yet, in the Shaarei Kedushah (ibid.) it says that the prophets draw forth holiness to the [non-sentient] world as well. Thus he says (Part III, end of Chapter Two and beginning of Chapter Three): “And this is the secret of ‘and I will place my words in your mouth...to build the heavens (Isaiah 51:16),’ for the human...draws life to heaven and earth...he is My partner, I create and he fulfills; and therefore do not find it difficult, the issue of prophecy and its impact on the lower spheres...on the contrary, prophecy is necessary in the world in order to straighten man and fix his deed and draw bounty to all the worlds.”
