Kabbalah Yehezkiel 29:3: Tikkunei Zohar

דַּבֵּ֨ר וְאָמַרְתָּ֜ כֹּֽה־אָמַ֣ר ׀ אֲדֹנָ֣י יְהוִ֗ה הִנְנִ֤י עָלֶ֙יךָ֙ פַּרְעֹ֣ה מֶֽלֶךְ־מִצְרַ֔יִם הַתַּנִּים֙ הַגָּד֔וֹל הָרֹבֵ֖ץ בְּת֣וֹךְ יְאֹרָ֑יו אֲשֶׁ֥ר אָמַ֛ר לִ֥י יְאֹרִ֖י וַאֲנִ֥י עֲשִׂיתִֽנִי׃

Berbicaralah dan katakanlah: Beginilah firman Tuhan Yang Mahakekal: Sesungguhnya Aku melawan engkau, hai Firaun, raja Mesir, buaya besar yang berbaring di tengah sungai-sungainya, yang berkata: “Sungai Nil ini milikku, dan aku telah menjadikan diriku sendiri.”

Tikkunei Zohar

similarly "Ad-nai appointed a great fish to swallow Jonah" to kill him. It is not written "to swallow Jonah" but "to swallow ET Jonah" and the particle ET is there to include the Faithful Shepherd [Moshe] who would bring Torah in his hands, which is from ALEF to TAV, and all reincarnations were in his hands, and this is the great fish, about which it is written "the great serpent" (Ezekiel 29:3), which is the fish of Egypt and its partner is Dagah (Jonah 2:2) and "the bowels of the Dagah" are Egypt.
