The very handwriting of the Gaon, the Kabbalist Author of the 'Caf Hachyim' - the Ga'on Rabbi Ya'akov Chaim Sofer, Chiddushim on Parashat Shoftim, from his book Yismach Yisrael on the Torah. Three pages.
The Gaon lengthens in a profound parable about the changes in human life for the better or for the worse, that only at the end can man discern what has been done with him. And that during the course of events he is daydreaming. The Gaon writes that thanks to the justification and the law that Israel is doing, The Shechina ascends as though, and that by virtue of these two, Israel will be redeemed with a complete redemption and signed in the verse of Isaiah 56, which places the redemption on the fulfillment of these two: 'שמרו משפט ועשו צדקה כי קרובה ישועתי לבוא וצדקתי להגלות'. And other matters.
