Kabbalah Keluaran 10:7: Sha'arei Orah

Now, the verse,⁹⁸Exodus 17:7 – The words of the verse are, “היש יהו״ה בקרבנו אם אין” which usually is translated as, “Is HaShem-יהו״ה amongst us or not?” However, since the Jewish people were saved from Egypt miraculously and witnessed many open wonders, miracles, and revelations, to the extent that (Mechilta 15:2), “At the splitting of the sea, even a maidservant perceived more than the prophets Yishayahu and Yechezkel,” their question cannot be understood simply, but must be understood as rendered above. Also see Zohar II 64b. “Is there-HaYesh-היש HaShem-יהו״ה within us or ‘Naught-Ayin-אין,’” hints at the two upper Sefirot. That is, their question was, “What Sefirah is HaShem-יהו״ה conducting us with in the desert? Is it with the first Sefirah, which is completely merciful-Rachamim, with utterly no element of judgment-Din whatsoever, which is the Sefirah called ‘Naught-Ayin-אין’? Or is it with the Sefirah that has some admixture of judgment-Din in it, called ‘Something-Yesh-יש,’ which has 310-Yesh-יש classes of accusers, who can cause the withholding of beneficence?”
