Psalmów 45:8 Kabała: Zohar

See now, Abraham sought to draw near to God, and he succeeded. So it is written, “Thou didst love righteousness and hate wickedness” (Ps. 45, 8), and it is further written, “Abraham who loves me” (Is. 41, 8), i.e. Abram is said to have “loved God” because he loved righteousness; this was Abram’s love of God, in which he excelled all his contemporaries, who were obstinate of heart and far from righteousness, as has been said.’
