Salmi 37:25 Cabala: Zohar

Rabbi Shimon said, Come and behold. It is written, "Better is a poor and wise child." Who is a poor child? It has been explained, and we learned he is the Good Inclination. But "better is a child," as it is written, "I have been young, and now am old" (Tehilim 37:25). This is the lad who is a poor child and owns nothing. Why is he called a lad? Because he is constantly renewed, like the moon. He is also "a wise child," because wisdom dwells within him.

"The eldest of his house" (Beresheet 24:2), (means Metatron), as in "I have been young, and now am old" (Tehilim 37:25). The Minister of the world 'who is Metatron?' said this phrase. "That ruled over all that he had" (Beresheet 24:2), as all the colors, green, white, and red, are reflected in him.

"Therefore the Elohim gives you of the dew of heaven, and the fatness of the earth" (Beresheet 27:28), from above and below, joined together. "...and plenty of corn and wine" (Ibid.) has already been explained. It is similar to the verse, "yet I have not seen a just man forsaken, and his seed begging bread" (Tehilim 37:25). Come and behold, "I have been young, and now am old" (Ibid.). This verse was said by the minister of the world (Metatron). And therefore he said "and plenty of corn and wine."
