זוהר שמות — דף לה ע”א

The light of Creation shone from above and rested upon the breath of the abyss. Waters flowed from its forehead and sparkled into seventy-two lights of the sun. The Holy One hid the light because the wicked worshipped the sun. The light was seeded in the Righteous One, the gardener of the Garden. When the great dragon sees the seed of this light sprouting in the Garden, it stirs toward the river Gihon. King Solomon rose to kingship through the blessing of this seed. The first darkness struck the head of the dragon and a thread separated between the light and the darkness.
