Kabbalah Imamat 16:16: Sha'arei Orah

וְכִפֶּ֣ר עַל־הַקֹּ֗דֶשׁ מִטֻּמְאֹת֙ בְּנֵ֣י יִשְׂרָאֵ֔ל וּמִפִּשְׁעֵיהֶ֖ם לְכָל־חַטֹּאתָ֑ם וְכֵ֤ן יַעֲשֶׂה֙ לְאֹ֣הֶל מוֹעֵ֔ד הַשֹּׁכֵ֣ן אִתָּ֔ם בְּת֖וֹךְ טֻמְאֹתָֽם׃

Dengan demikian ia harus mengadakan pendamaian bagi tempat mahakudus karena kenajisan bani Israel dan karena pelanggaran-pelanggaran mereka, yaitu segala dosa mereka. Demikian pula ia harus melakukannya bagi Kemah Pertemuan, yang berdiam bersama mereka di tengah-tengah kenajisan mereka.

Sha'arei Orah

The secret of this has already been explained to you, which is that this refers to the Sanctuary-Heichal-היכל within which HaShem-יהו״ה, blessed is He, dwells. HaShem-יהו״ה, blessed is He, thus tells the Jewish people, take my dwelling within which I dwell, and I shall never depart from you. Even though you may become impure, my Indwelling Presence (Shechinah) shall not separate from you. This is as written,115Leviticus 16:16 “that dwells with them (HaShochen Eetam-השוכן אתם) amid their impurities.” Thus, when HaShem-יהו״ה, blessed is He, gave the Jewish people this gift, and the Indwelling Presence of HaShem-יהו״ה dwelt within them, all the treasuries of HaShem-יהו״ה, blessed is He, all His storehouses and chambers, and all bestowals of beneficence and emanations of blessings, were given into the hands of the Jewish people.

Sha'arei Orah

Rabbi Meir says:128See Midrash Lekach Tov, Numbers 35:34 (our versions cite Rabbi Nathan). This is analogous to a king who tells his servant, if you seek me, you will find me with my son, as it states,129Leviticus 16:16 “That dwells with them (HaShochen Itam-השוכן אתם) amid their impurities.” That is, even “if they contaminate My Dwelling (Mishkanee-משכני) that is within them.” Similarly, it states,130Numbers 5:3 “They shall not contaminate their camps, within which I dwell (Shochen-שכן).”
