זוהר שמות — דף עד ע”ב

Parasha Yitro, folio 74b — The Zohar establishes the link between standing prayer and the redemption from Egypt, two expressions of the same spiritual transformation. The Matronita rises for those standing in prayer, and Israel left walking as servants until Moses called them sons. The prophets reached different levels of prophecy through different organs. Kabbalistic physiognomy offers a path to read the constitution of the soul and know the human being. Rabbi Shimon blesses the companions who merited hearing these Torah secrets.
