אַתֶּ֣ם רְאִיתֶ֔ם אֲשֶׁ֥ר עָשִׂ֖יתִי לְמִצְרָ֑יִם וָאֶשָּׂ֤א אֶתְכֶם֙ עַל־כַּנְפֵ֣י נְשָׁרִ֔ים וָאָבִ֥א אֶתְכֶ֖ם אֵלָֽי׃
Kamu sendiri telah melihat apa yang Kulakukan terhadap orang Mesir, dan bagaimana Aku mendukung kamu di atas sayap rajawali dan membawa kamu kepada-Ku.
Sha'arei Orah
Now, this Divine quality called “eagle-Nesher-נשר” possesses several eagles-Nesharim-נשרים,193It is pointed out that the term “eagles-Nesharim-נשרים-600” shares the same numerical value as the names of the two angels “Metatron and Sandalfon-מטטרון וסנדלפון-600,” both of whom are called eagles-Nesher-נשר, in that they uplift the prayers and souls of the Jewish people, as in the verse (Exodus 19:4), “I have borne you on the wings of eagles-Nesharim-נשרים and brought you to Me.” The angel Metatron-מטטרו״ן is the primary angel of the world of Formation-Yetzirah, whereas Sandalfon-סנדלפו״ן is the primary angel of the world of Action-Asiyah. (See Me’or Yosef to Shaarei Orah, citing Kohelet Yaakov, Section 350.) who have several wings. They are called, “the eagles of the Chariot-Nishrei HaMerkavah-נשרי המרכבה,” and they all protect the Jewish people by spreading their wings over them, saving them from various troubles.
Sha'arei Orah
It is this eagle-Nesher-נשר and all its camps that are called, “the eagles of the Chariot-Nishrei HaMerkavah-נשרי המרכבה,” who protected the Jewish people in Egypt, taking them out of bondage. This is the mystery of the verse,194Exodus 19:4 “You have seen what I did to Egypt; that I have borne you on the wings of eagles-Nesharim-נשרים and brought you to Me.” All these camps called “the eagles of the Chariot-Nishrei HaMerkavah-נשרי המרכבה,” become elevated and filled when the Jewish people ascend in the study of HaShem’s-יהו"ה Torah and the fulfillment of His commandments-mitzvot. However, they are caused to descend and become lacking when the Jewish people are distant from the study of Torah and the fulfillment of the commandments-mitzvot.
