이사야 29:2 카발라: Sha'arei Orah

The verse continues, “Because of a scoundrel who is sated with bread.” This refers to the nations of the seventy ministering angels who serve false gods, who are sated and corpulent because of the abundant goodness coming from their ministering angels, from the goodness that should have flowed to the Jewish people. However, because the conduits are broken, the ministers of the nations receive the beneficence instead of the Jewish people, and when they are filled with this goodness, their nations become wealthy and are full of all manner of beneficence and goodness. This is why we find that the ministering angels wait and hope for the Jewish people to sin, so that they can obstruct between HaShem-יהו״ה and His people, and then the beneficence that should come to the Jewish people from HaShem-יהו״ה, will come to them instead. About this the prophet Yishayahu said,²²⁶Isaiah 59:1-2 “Surely, the hand of HaShem-יהו״ה is not too limited to save, nor is His ear heavy from hearing; rather, your sins have separated between you and your God.”
