Quotation_auto zu Bereschit 2:3
וַיְבָ֤רֶךְ אֱלֹהִים֙ אֶת־י֣וֹם הַשְּׁבִיעִ֔י וַיְקַדֵּ֖שׁ אֹת֑וֹ כִּ֣י ב֤וֹ שָׁבַת֙ מִכָּל־מְלַאכְתּ֔וֹ אֲשֶׁר־בָּרָ֥א אֱלֹהִ֖ים לַעֲשֽׂוֹת׃ (פ)
Und Gott segnete den siebenten Tag und heiligte ihn; denn an ihm ruhte Gott von allem Werke, das er erschaffen und gemacht hatte.
Yalkut Shimoni on Torah
... “YHVH Elohim” – a parable to a king . . . who poured hot and cold mixed into his [glass] cups and they withstood (didn’t break). Thus says the Holy One: If I create with the quality of judgment (Elohim), how will the world stand? With the quality of mercy (YHVH), then won’t sin spread? Rather here I will create it with the quality of judgment and the quality of mercy – may it only be that the world will stand!
