Kabbalah su Giobbe 25:78
Zohar
It is written "Dominion and dread are His; He makes peace in His heights" (Job 25:2) - this verse was raised by the group of friends. But "dominion" is Avraham, as it is written about him "you are the elect of E-lohim among us" (Genesis 23:6) and also "I will bless you and I will make your name great" (Genesis 12:2). "Dread" is Itzchak, as it is written "the dread of Itzchak was with me" (Genesis 31:42). "Makes peace in His heights" - this is Yaakov, as it is written "You gave truth to Yaakov" (Micah 7:20) and also "love truth and peace" (Zecharia 8:19) - truth and peace are tied to one another. And so he is the most complete of all.

Zohar
And the Shelamim sacrifice is completeness, and peace for all. And a person that offers a shelamim spreads peace in the world. Yaakov is the one who makes peace, as we said, since he is the one for this [side] and this [side]. And the shelamim unifies the positive mitzvot and negative mitzvot, from this side and from this side. And because of this it is called shelamim [completeness]. And the secret of the word is that it is written 'And Yaakov was a TAM person' (Genesis 25:27): a complete person. Complete above and complete below. Another explanation [for Job 25:2]: "dominion" this is Michael. "Dread" this is Gavriel. This [angel, Michael] has its basis of water, this [angel, Gavriel] has the basis of fire. And the Holy One of Blessing makes peace between them, as it is written "He makes peace on His heights / among the high ones" (Job 25:2).

Zohar
Rabbi Berachiah said: It is written (Genesis 1:2), "The earth was Chaos (Tohu) and Desolation (Bohu). What is the meaning of the word "was" in this verse? This indicates that the Chaos existed previously [and already was] . What is Chaos (Tohu)? Something that confounds (Taha) people. What is Desolation (Bohu)? It is something that has substance. This is the reason that it is called Bohu, that is, Bo Hu — "it is in it." Why is it written (Eccl. 7:14) "God has made one corresponding to the other". He created Bohu and set its place in peace. He created Tohu and set its place in evil. Bohu in peace, as it is written (Job 25:2) "He makes peace in His heights". We learn that Michael, the Prince of the Right Side of Hashem, water and hail. And Gabriel, the Prince of His Left, Fire. The Prince of Peace is between them, deciding. That is why it is written "He makes peace in His heights".
