1) “And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, ‘Pinhas, the son of Elazar, the son of Aaron the priest.” It is written, “Hear, my son, your father’s reproof, and do not forsake your mother’s law [Hebrew: Torah].” “Hear, my son, your father’s reproof” is the Creator. “And do not forsake your mother’s law” is the Assembly of Israel. “Your father’s reproof”; reproof is the Torah, in which there are several admonitions, several punishments.
2) Anyone who engages in Torah in this world is rewarded with several gates being opened to him, several lights to that world. Hence, when he passes away from this world, the Torah walks before him and goes to all the gate-keepers, declares and says, “Open the gates and let the righteous gentile in, set up a chair for so and so, the King’s servant,” for there is no joy to the Creator except in one who engages in the Torah. It is even more so with one who awakens at night to engage in Torah, for all the righteous in the Garden of Eden listen to his voice and the Creator is among them.
