Musar su Ezechiele 41:22

ואכלתם שם לפני ה' אלוקיכם, … ושמחתם לפני ה' אלוקיכם . According to the Zohar, these verses (12,7 and 12,12) describe different epochs. As long as the Temple was standing one could be in the Presence of G–d, consume the sacrifices in Jerusalem, and rejoice while doing so. How can a person sit down and eat and enjoy same in the knowledge that there is no Temple and that no sacrifices can be offered and that we are not allowed into G–d's Presence? The second verse comes to console us that G–d will join us when we sit down for our meals and recite the appropriate benedictions. He will encourage us to speak words of Torah during the meal.

So far about the first journey, which was meant to lead the people to the land of Israel, which in turn was compared to being a גן השם, a "garden of G–d." The Jewish people again became corrupted, however; they committed a sin similar in nature to that which had been committed by Adam at the time, inasmuch as it involved eating forbidden food. They התאוו תאוה (11,4), induced lust, greed in themselves demanding to be fed a diet of meat. They found themselves in a situation similar to Eve in Gan Eden, where the serpent was the seducer with the fruit of the tree of knowledge. Now Satan seduced the people. The Torah describes this as שטו, the letters of which when re-arranged spell ושט, "and spread out, lengthened." When you spread out the last letter, i.e. the letter ו, is perceived as having turned into a Nun, and reads שטן, Satan. The שלחן, table, that was לפני השם, in the Presence of the Lord, i.e. the altar, turned לנחש, into a serpent, the classical seducer, by a similar re-arrangement of the identical letters. I have discussed this at length when writing about the significance of the letter ק, in connection with the word and meaning of קדושה. The author refers to his section called שער האותיות in אות קו"ף – קדושה.

The Table is a clear allusion to the "table of kings,” something hidden, a reference to the Kingdom of Heaven, another place where the crown of the good name is found. It is here that the kingdom of the dynasty of David has its roots. Our sages in Sanhedrin 110, regard anyone who disputes the authority of the kingdom of David as if he disputed the authority of G–d Himself. The Table alludes to another dimension in the Celestial Regions, i.e. the table in the presence of G–d in the World to Come, a table of kings. Since all Israelites are considered princes, descendants of kings, they all have a share in this World to Come. The placing of the Table in the northern part of the Sanctuary, צפון, is alluded to in Psalms 32,20: מה רב טובך אשר צפנת ליראיך, "How abundant is the good that You have in store for those who fear You".
