Chasidut sur La Genèse 45:12
וְהִנֵּ֤ה עֵֽינֵיכֶם֙ רֹא֔וֹת וְעֵינֵ֖י אָחִ֣י בִנְיָמִ֑ין כִּי־פִ֖י הַֽמְדַבֵּ֥ר אֲלֵיכֶֽם׃
Or, vous voyez de vos yeux, comme aussi mon frère Benjamin, que c’est bien moi qui vous parle.
Kedushat Levi
Genesis 45,12. “and behold, your own eyes can see as well as the eyes of my brother Binyamin, that it is my mouth that is speaking to you.” My sainted teacher the tzaddik Rabbi Dov Baer, said that just as light and darkness exist in the universe [i.e. opposites live side by side, Ed.] so there is light and darkness within each human intellect.
I believe that what he had in mind was that when words are heard emanating from the mouth of a tzaddik the intellect to whom they are addressed undergoes a refinement, and the eyes of the person concerned light up. This is what Joseph referred to when he said to his brothers: “here your eyes see that my mouth is speaking to you.”
