כֹּ֤ל פָּעַ֣ל יְ֭הוָה לַֽמַּעֲנֵ֑הוּ וְגַם־רָ֝שָׁ֗ע לְי֣וֹם רָעָֽה׃
Segala sesuatu dibuat oleh Yang Mahakekal demi diri-Nya sendiri, bahkan orang fasik pun untuk hari malapetaka.
Ba'al Shem Tov
When it happens that you come to the land, etc. You are to take of the first of all the fruits of the ground, etc.: The words of our Godly teacher: The secret of the first fruits is the return of the lights of the feminine (nukva, another characterization of malkhut) to the priest, who is kindness (chesed), in order that the external forces not derive sustenance from it. And the explanation of the words of our teacher refer to that which we have learned (Ketuvot 105b) - "anyone who brings a gift to a Torah scholar is as if he offered first fruits": Why are specifically first fruits differentiated [here] from all [other] gifts to the priesthood. And the clarification of this matter is that it is because 'The Lord has made every thing for His purpose' - as He created everything for His glory, to extract the sparks of purity that have been scattered into all things. And the community of Israel is elevated with all of the extractions, and it becomes 'a new offering to the Lord.' This is like the explanation of the 'kav (a measurement, whose numerical equivalent has kabbalistic significance) of the new and kav of the old,' that is known to those that know. And a man that clings to his God makes a unification of His name with everything that he sees, hears, smells and feels; and through this, the Divine Presence (the feminine, malkhut) is 'adorned with adornments that [previously] did not exist' (the language of the holy Zohar, Mishpatim 3:15), 'and all doers of iniquity shall be scattered. So the evil will be sweetened and the good will be purified. And he hints with the lower and makes a tremendous unification in the upper.
