Kabbalah sobre Gênesis 1:4

וַיַּ֧רְא אֱלֹהִ֛ים אֶת־הָא֖וֹר כִּי־ט֑וֹב וַיַּבְדֵּ֣ל אֱלֹהִ֔ים בֵּ֥ין הָא֖וֹר וּבֵ֥ין הַחֹֽשֶׁךְ׃

Viu Deus que a luz era boa; e fez separação entre a luz e as trevas.

Zohar Chadash

"And God saw the light, it was good;" What was it that He saw, that was good? Rabbi Hiyya said that this implies that He foresaw the actions of the wicked, and still stored the light, for reasons we've said before. But, Rabbi Aba says, "And God saw the light, it was good;" because it was good to hide. He saw its radiance beaming from one end of the world to the other, and He saw that it was better to conceal it, so that sinners might not benefit from it. Rabbi Shimon said that no anger or judgement may be found in "And God saw the light, it was good;" After all, it is written, "Balaam saw that it pleased the Lord to bless Israel" (Num. 24:1) and this is proven by the verse's closing, "And God divided the light from the darkness" (Gen. 1:4), to snuff wrath, even though the Holy One, Blessed be He, later (re-)combined the two.

Zohar Chadash

"And God saw the light, it was good;" (Gen. 1:4) in which the participle אֶת joins the opaque reflection [Malchut] with the shining reflection [Zeir Anpin] – this union is what was "good". Thus says Rabbi Elazar, "'אֶת' includes the angels who come from the side of light, and shine as brightly as the primal light."

Zohar

And the Light that will illuminate the righteous will shine. It has been stored before Him since the day that the world was created, as written, "And Elohim saw the light, that it was good" (Gen. 1:3). In the future, the Holy One, blessed be He, will revive the dead. It is written, "But to you who fear my name the sun of righteousness shall arise, etc." (Malachi 3:20), for then good will have the upper hand in the world, and that which is called evil will pass away from the world, as we said, then, the bodies that preceded the last one will be as if they never existed.
