יְֽהוָ֗ה עֹ֭ז לְעַמּ֣וֹ יִתֵּ֑ן יְהוָ֓ה ׀ יְבָרֵ֖ךְ אֶת־עַמּ֣וֹ בַשָּׁלֽוֹם׃
Ang Walang-Hanggan ay magbibigay ng kalakasan sa Kanyang bayan; pagpapalain ng Walang-Hanggan ang Kanyang bayan ng kapayapaan.
Sefat Emet
Six days shall you eat matzot and the seventh day shall be an assembly for the Lord, your God. For it is found in the holy Zohar in the chapter [on the verse], The Lord is a man of war, the Lord is His name (Zohar, Beshalach 17:251 on Exodus 15:3), "Rabbi Eliezer began, Therefore the Book of the Wars of the Lord speaks of Vaheb in Sufah (Numbers 21:14), etc." The idea is that the name of the Holy One, blessed be He, is Peace [Shalom], but He nevertheless fights with His name. And likewise, all the wars of the Lord are with love [ahavah] in its end [sufah]. And so, too, after all the wars during the exodus from Egypt, there was song at its end. And likewise, after every argument that is for the sake of Heaven, its end is to be preserved (Avot 5:17). And the completeness [shleimut] that comes at the end is testimony that the war was for the sake of Heaven, that it was a war of the Lord. Hence there is love at its end. And the Children of Israel merited this completeness through the power of the Torah; that is why they are called Shulamit [in Song of Songs]. So all the wars of the Children of Israel are peace. And so it is written: I am all peace; but when I speak, they are for war (Psalms 102:7). And its explanation is [that] even when I fight with them, I am peace. And they merit this through the power of the Torah, as it is written: May the Lord grant strength to His people, etc. bless His people with peace (Psalms 29:11). As it is written about the Torah: and all of its paths are peace (Proverbs 3:17). Its explanation is that even the wars that are fought according to the Torah are peace. Likewise is it with Six days shall you eat matzot, for they [represent] the disputes and wars with Egypt; and the seventh day shall be an assembly, which is the grouping together and completeness that happened at the end as a result of these wars. And that was the song on the seventh day of Passover. And that is why it is found in the Midrash that the seventh day of Passover is like Shabbat. And Shabbat is Peace, the name of the Holy One, blessed be He.
