זוהר שמות — דף קכה ע”א

Folio 125a discusses the Holy One's love for Israel and the secret of the angel accompanying them. Through the parable of a king who wished to journey with his son, it is explained that the king previously arranged proper protection. But afterwards he warned about him since he is not a complete man. The son demanded to go together or to go alone. By nature, the Holy One said this out of love for Israel and to be reconciled with them.
