Kabbalah zu Ijow 11:78

Does not wisdom cry out (Prov. 8:1) to the remnants of Israel to observe discretion (Prov. 2:11) [regarding] the secrets of wisdom (Job 11:6)? They praise the Lord with their throats (Ps. 149:6). In their right hand is fullness of joy (Ps. 16:11) and pleasantness. They direct their tongue with the pen of a ready writer (Ps. 45:2) who has studied and understood. He is frightened by the fools among the people. They walk in darkness, refined in the smelter of poverty and much servitude (Lam. 1:3) bordered with cords (Esther 1:6) of mockery, folly, and ignorance in the captivity of this host (Obad. 1:20) when vileness is exalted among the sons of men (Ps. 12:9). They are ignorant of the time to plant the tree of life in the midst of the garden (Gen. 2:9)

How has become dim (Lam. 4:1) for them the candle of commandment and the light of Torah (Prov. 6:23) which gives light to these hypocrites. For like the grass they will soon wither (Ps. 37:2), since a mistake in learning causes intentional sin, Sheol and Abaddon (Prov. 15:11), the venom of serpents and the poison of vipers (Deut. 32:33). But they are altogether brutish and foolish (Jer. 10:8), [following] after vanity, and they will become naught (Jer. 2:5), attempting to bring forth a perverted justice (Hab. 1:4) which will eventuate in a defective deed. Turn away from the tents (Num. 16:26) of the man who slumbers, the ass of a wild man (Job 11:12); a fool and ignorant man is his companion, brutish, unlike a man (Prov. 30:2), who errs and is like a fool.

The spiritual worlds evolved to the reality of our physical world, where a person is born with a [spiritual] body (the desire to receive) and a soul (the desire to give), a time of decay and a time of rebuilding (tikun). The [spiritual] body, the desire to receive for oneself, which has its roots in the thought of creation, travels through the system of impurity, as it is written "man is born a wild donkey", and remains subservient to this system until the age of thirteen. This is the time (under thirteen) of [spiritual] decay (because the person is mostly thinking of himself).

32 (32)Said the Intellect - First you need to know that even though we already said that the Master may he be blessed wanted to give comprehension of his precious completeness to his creations, it is certain that it was not his desire in this to give them a comprehension of all of his completeness which has no end, measure or limitation at all; rather just the opposite, he only wanted to reveal to them a small periphery of it, and in this would be all of their enjoyment in the grasping of it and we explained. And this is a simple matter and very desired, for the reason that it is impossible for creations like us to grasp all of the completeness of the creator may he be blessed, and like it is said (Job 11:7), "Will you succeed in examining haShem, will you discover the limits of Shad-dai?". And we will find, that everything that the creations can grasp, will not be even a droplet from the great sea of the Creator's completeness and his name be blessed.

Rebbe Yitzchak said, "Come and see when the holy one blessed be he bought down water he first brought it down in mercy to show the world that if they repent he will accept them. This is implied when it first says 'There was rain' and later it says 'there was the flood' that if they repent it will be rain of blessing and if they do not repent it will be a flood."
