Chasidut su Genesi 45:12

וְהִנֵּ֤ה עֵֽינֵיכֶם֙ רֹא֔וֹת וְעֵינֵ֖י אָחִ֣י בִנְיָמִ֑ין כִּי־פִ֖י הַֽמְדַבֵּ֥ר אֲלֵיכֶֽם׃

Ed ecco voi vedete coi vostri occhi, come pure mio fratello Binjamìn, ch’è la mia bocca che vi parla [cioè senza interprete].

Kedushat Levi

Genesis 45,12. “and behold, your own eyes can see as ‎well as the eyes of my brother Binyamin, that it is my mouth ‎that is speaking to you.” My sainted teacher the tzaddik ‎Rabbi Dov Baer, said that just as light and darkness exist in the ‎universe [i.e. opposites live side by side, Ed.] so ‎there is light and darkness within each human intellect.‎
I believe that what he had in mind was that when words are ‎heard emanating from the mouth of a tzaddik the intellect ‎to whom they are addressed undergoes a refinement, and the eyes ‎of the person concerned light up. This is what Joseph referred to ‎when he said to his brothers: “here your eyes see that my mouth ‎is speaking to you.”‎
