아가 2:9의 주석

My beloved resembles a gazelle. In the swiftness of His running, for He hastened to come like a gazelle and like a young hart. “עֹפֶר” is a young male hart.

Thus it says: My beloved is like a gazelle … : I found no rest from all of the places to which he journeyed: the burning bush, Sinai, the tent of meeting, until he dwelt in the Temple in Jerusalem, by the western wall. As our sages say: “The Shechinah has never departed the western wall. As it says: ‘There he stands behind our wall, gazing …’ [Cant. 2:9] from there watching over and observing humanity.”⁷⁴Exodus Rabbah 2:2.

Behold, he stands, etc. I had expected to remain detained for many more days, and behold, he informed [me] that He was standing and peering through the windows of heaven at what was being done to me, as it is stated, “I have indeed seen the affliction of My people, etc.”¹⁸Shemos 3:7.
