Tafsiran yang Mengutip untuk Yesaya 19:2

AND I WILL GIVE PEACE IN THE LAND — So that there will be peace among you, and no man shall fight against his brother,¹¹Isaiah 19:2. or “peace” may mean that He will cause evil beasts to cease out of the Land.¹²Mentioned in Verse 6 before us. In other words, it may be that the expression, And I will give peace in the Land is a completely independent thought, and what follows in the verse is another series of blessings, or it is possible that the second half of the verse explains the first half. Neither shall the sword go through your Land at all, but you will pursue your enemies,¹³See Verse 7. going forth against them in battle, and they will flee. And [the meaning of the verse] by way of the Truth, [the mystic teachings of the Cabala], is that He will give peace which will cleave to the [higher]¹⁴Ricanti. “earth,” which is the all-inclusive peace which is equal to everything.

24. “But HaShem hurled (vayina’er) the Egyptians….” (Ex. 14:24) Mekhilta: When one stirs up (yina’er) a pot, the ones on top go to the bottom and the ones on the bottom come up to the top. (God did this) in order to increase their agony. Another interpretation: God gave them the strength of youth in order that they continue to receive punishment. God did this for all the plagues so that they wouldn’t die from the plagues. Another: he put them in the hands of young and cruel angels, as Scripture states, “Therefore a cruel messenger shall be sent against him,” (Pro. 17:11) and “They die in their youth…” (Job 36:14) In Minchah Bilulah²⁰⁸Porto, Abraham Menahem ben Jacob ha-Kohen 1520 - after 1594, the author writes that since the people knew how to swim, he stirred up the water so that their feet were up and their heads were down, so they were unable to swim. I have written that he took some of them and stirred up others. How so? Pharaoh “took 600 of his picked chariots,” (Ex 14:7). He 216 of them to fight the powers of God’s great name, from the verses וַיִּסַּ֞ע “He traveled,” (Ex. 14:19), וַיָּבֹ֞א “He came” (Ex. 14:20), וַיֵּ֨ט “He stretched out his arm,” (Ex. 14:21) these add up to 216 letters, and שפ"ד, Shaf”ad.²⁰⁹Shapad, שפ"ד, adds up to 384 together with 216 they equal 600. Shapad is equal to the word Egypt if one adds the letters minus the letter yud. What did God do? First He killed the celestial prince of Egypt, as is stated, “Horse and driver He has hurled into the sea,” (Ex.15:1) This is written in the singular.²¹⁰In other words, first God killed the one celestial prince of Egypt. First he lifted him high up and then cast him down into the abyss of the sea. Now all that remained were the lees, adding up to 215. All of them drowned in the Reed Sea, as is written, “Pharaoh’s chariots and his army He has cast into the sea.” (Ex 15:4) All that remained were שפ"ד who were called שפוד shippud, a skewer, that is, the thing that held them all together and served as a kind of skewer. God began to mix them up with the other 216 who were mentioned in the sea. It is written, “I will incite Egyptian against Egyptian…” (Is. 19:2) Mitzraim, Egypt, along with the letters in Gematria equals shapad (384) so that all of them were destroyed

and he did not hearken to the words of Neco from the mouth of God who said to him from the mouth of God, for so said Isaiah, (19:2): “And I will stir up Egyptians against Egyptians.” This is what the Kallir composed: “He withheld his troops from marching to Aram Naharaim, in order that no single sword should pass through Ephraim; and he did not hearken to the prophet to turn back, for it was decreed that Egyptian be set against Egyptian.”
