Kabbalah Yesaya 65:23: Kuntres Mattan Torah

Try to imagine every single person in that community careful to observe God’s commandment to the extent of the verse, “And you shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your might” (Deuteronomy 6:5), and to the same extent take care to fulfill his neighbor’s needs and wishes to the same extent inherent in the person’s nature to fulfill his own wishes, as said, “love your neighbor as yourself.” Had God himself been the aim of every worker while working toward social welfare, that is, had the worker expected that by his work for the sake of the community he would attain cleaving to God, to the source of all that is true and good and blissful and soft, there would be no doubt that in very few years they would have risen above all the world’s countries combined, because they would be then able to utilize all the troves of raw materials in their rich soil and would truly be a miraculous example to all countries and would be called “blessed of the Lord” (Isaiah 65:23).
