Kabbalah su Proverbi 27:5
ט֭וֹבָה תּוֹכַ֣חַת מְגֻלָּ֑ה מֵֽאַהֲבָ֥ה מְסֻתָּֽרֶת׃
Meglio è rimprovero aperto Che amore nascosto.
The Beginning of Wisdom
112. Another aspect of the Sefirot is that of "Enclothing" (התלבשות) whereby one conduct is concealed in and acts through a second conduct, which is the external expression of the inner, motivating one. The revealed conduct is considered to be the garment of the conduct concealed within it. Scripture thus states, "Good is a revealed rebuke coming from a hidden love", for example, a father who punishes or disciplines his child does so out of great love of the child and for his ultimate betterment, by correcting the negative characteristics he sees in him. If he did not care for the child, he would not be moved to discipline him, but to the casual observer it might seem a cruelty. The love and kindness of the father is enclothed, so to speak, within the external expression of punishment and discipline.
112B. Sometimes in G-d's relationship to Israel, the conduct of kindness is enclothed in that of judgment, for their ultimate good, as Scripture states, "As a man chastens his son, so does the L-rd your G-d chasten you". So too, concerning the suffering of the righteous, the sages stated, "Happy are the righteous who G-d did not countenance in this world". Scripture describes punishment as concealment of G-d's countenance, as it is written, "I shall surely conceal my countenance on that day".
