Kabbalah Kidung Agung 1:2: Sha'arei Orah

יִשָּׁקֵ֙נִי֙ מִנְּשִׁיק֣וֹת פִּ֔יהוּ כִּֽי־טוֹבִ֥ים דֹּדֶ֖יךָ מִיָּֽיִן׃

Kiranya ia mencium aku dengan ciuman-ciuman mulutnya, sebab cintamu lebih baik daripada anggur.

Sha'arei Orah

These two aspects of Torah adhere to each other, “Like two fawns, twins of the gazelle.”281Song of Songs 4:5 Regarding one who separates between the two, the verse states,282Proverbs 16:28 “A querulous person estranges the Master,” and is compared to a person who has no god at all. Therefore, know that wherever the Torah states, “And HaShem spoke-VaYedaber HaShem-וידבר יהו״ה to Moshe saying-Leimor-לאמר,” it is hinting at both the Written Torah (Torah SheB’Khtav) and the Oral Torah (Torah SheBa’al Peh). Similarly, the verse states,283Song of Songs 1:2 “Give me the kisses of Your mouth.”284That is, the mouth (Peh-פה) refers to the Oral Torah (Torah SheBa’al Peh).
