Kabbalah su Amos 5:2
נָֽפְלָה֙ לֹֽא־תוֹסִ֣יף ק֔וּם בְּתוּלַ֖ת יִשְׂרָאֵ֑ל נִטְּשָׁ֥ה עַל־אַדְמָתָ֖הּ אֵ֥ין מְקִימָֽהּ׃
La vergine d'Israele è caduta, non risorgerà più; È abbattuta sulla sua terra, non c'è nessuno che la cresca.
Zohar
According to another explanation, "If a man find a girl that is a virgin" refers to Yisrael, as written, "When Yisrael was a child, then I loved him" (Hosea 11:1), {they are called Na'ar} lad from the aspect of Metatron, [Their sould are from the world of Beriyah, and Metatron is found there]. The 'man' is none other than the Holy One, blessed be He, as written, "Hashem is a man of war" (Exodus 15:3). "If a man find a girl that is a virgin," namely the virgin of Yisrael, of whom it says, "The virgin of Yisrael is fallen; she shall no more rise" (Amos 5:2). "Behold, I will allure her, and bring her into the wilderness" (Hosea 2:16). Then He opened for them fifty gates of freedom, which are the fifty gates of mercy of the side of their father Abraham, [Abraham is commonly associated with Chesed/Lovingkindess in the literature]. This is what is meant by, "shall give to the girl's father fifty shekels of silver," silver being of the level of Chesed, the levek of Abraham.

Tikkunei Zohar
"Bereshit, in the beginning" (Genesis 1:1). This includes two fires ("trei esh"), which are the two flames [referred to in the blessing] "Blessed is the Creator of the lights of fire". And in this regard it is written (Song of Songs 2:5) "Sustain me with cakes (ashishot)", that is, with two fires (eishot). Why is 'sustain me' said in this context? This refers to the eves of the Shabbat, when an additional soul descends in order to support the lower Shechina in exile, of whom it is said (Amos 5:2) "Fallen, not to rise again [is the maiden of Israel.]" When Shabbat reaches its end, this additional soul leaves, of which it is written (Exodus 31:17) "[God was] refreshed (vayinafash)". [This is the meaning of ] vayinafash? As soon as it leaves, woe to the soul! (vay nefesh!), for nobody is left to support her. In such moments, she cries out to Israel "Support me with ashishot", that is, with lights of fires. What are these fires? Two Torahs, carved of fire, which are ELOHIM, the aspect of might. These are known as (Isaiah 54:13) "Teachings of the Lord," two lips of burning flames, or two apples out of which the spirit of the Messiah comes, of which is said (Isaiah 11:2) "The spirit of the Lord shall alight on him."
