Face-to-Face with Hashem
Kabbalistic Insights from the Zohar on Parashas Vaeira 5783
 

‘And G-d spoke to Moshe [Moses], and said to him, ‘I am Hashem, and I appeared to Avraham [Abraham], to Yitzchak [Isaac], and to Ya’akov [Jacob] as Keil Shakkai, and My Name, Yud-Kei-Vav-Kei, I did not make Myself known to them.”
– Shemos (Exodus) 6:2-3

In the discussion of this week’s parasha, we begin by reading from Zohar 2:22b, which begins with Shemos 6:3 and asks why this verse includes two names of Hashem—alef-lamed and Shakkai. Why do we need these two names?

The Zohar answers this question through a parable.
