Kabbalah su Isaia 41:2
מִ֤י הֵעִיר֙ מִמִּזְרָ֔ח צֶ֖דֶק יִקְרָאֵ֣הוּ לְרַגְל֑וֹ יִתֵּ֨ן לְפָנָ֤יו גּוֹיִם֙ וּמְלָכִ֣ים יַ֔רְדְּ יִתֵּ֤ן כֶּֽעָפָר֙ חַרְבּ֔וֹ כְּקַ֥שׁ נִדָּ֖ף קַשְׁתּֽוֹ׃
Chi ne ha sollevato uno da est, ai cui passi partecipa la vittoria? Dà nazioni davanti a lui e lo fa governare sui re; La sua spada li rende come polvere, il suo arco come la stoppia spinta.
Zohar Chadash
When the Holy One, Blessed be He, looked over the generations of wicked men, he stored the light for the righteous ones. Thus it is written, "And from the wicked their light is withholden," (Job 38:15) and, "light is sown for the righteous and gladness for those upright in hearts" (Ps. 97:11) And so, God said "Let there be light" just as it is written, "Who raised up the righteous man from the east," (Is. 41:1)

Shaarei Orah
And the aspect of the name Adona"y is called sometimes by the nickname Beit Hamikdash [Temple], because it is the house where the Unique Name dwells in. And because the Holy One of Blessing sanctified Mount Moriah and it was the portion of Adona"y, the Beit Hamikdash was built on it, and your sign [that this is true] is: "A Mikdash, Adona"y, Your hands established" (Exodus 15:17). And this is the name that dwelt inside it, and all the forms of the House, and its chambers and halls and trasuries and vestibules - all were [made] in the secret of Adona"y, as the matter that we spoke about the secret of the forms of the limbs of a person. And when Israel sinned and the Shechinah separated itself, the House was destroyed. and when Daniel came and prayed in front of Y"Y, Blessed, so as to build the Beit HaMikdash, he directed [his intentions] to this aspect and said: "and show Your favor to Your desolate sanctuary, for the sake of Adona"y" (Daniel 9:17), with Alef, Dalet, Nun, Yud. That is to say, build the Beit HaMikdash that is the throne and the hall for the name Adona"y. And what our sages of blessed memory explained in Masechet Berakhot (Berakhot 7b) "'for the sake of the Lord' (Daniel 9:17) - it should have said "for Your sake", rather for the sake of Avraham, who called You, Lord." True and immutable, because this aspect was guarding Avraham and fighting his wars, in the secret "and he divided upon them at night, he and his servants and defeated them" (Genesis 14:15), and in the secret of "Who roused Righteousness [Tzedek] from the West, and called it to His feet?" (Isaiah 41:2), as we will explain regarding the word tzedek with the help of Heaven.
