Kabbalah su II Cronache 5:78

Zohar

"The earth is Hashem's, and the fullness thereof." This verse refers to the land of Yisrael, which is the Holy Land, while "the fullness thereof" refers to the Shechinah. As it is written: "For the glory of Hashem had filled (lit. 'is full') house of Elohim" (II Chronicles 5:14) and, also, "and the glory of Hashem filled the Tabernacle" (Shemot 40:35). But, why "full" and not "filled?" Because, assuredly, She is full of everything; meaning that She is filled by the sun. The moon is filled and completed (by the righteous); She is filled with all the goodness from above, like a treasure box filled with the riches of the world. That is to what the verse, "The earth is Hashem's and the fullness thereof," refers. But the words, "the world, and they that dwell in it" were said in reference to countries (other than Israel).
