Why Israel Owes God Thanks for the Light of Torah

[(Exodus 35:30:) SEE, THE LORD HAS CALLED BEZALEL BY NAME.] This is what Scripture says (Isaiah 40:25-26): "TO WHOM THEN WILL YOU LIKEN ME, THAT I SHOULD BE HIS EQUAL? SAYS THE HOLY ONE. LIFT UP YOUR EYES ON HIGH" and so forth. The Holy One, blessed be He, said: TO WHOM THEN WILL YOU LIKEN ME? If a person of flesh and blood is walking in the darkness, and a man comes and gives him light, must he not show him gratitude? Yet you sleep at night, and I raise up the light for you—must you not show Me gratitude? "LIFT UP YOUR EYES ON HIGH" and so forth. By virtue of what do they stand? "THESE (ELEH) ARE THE GENERATIONS OF THE HEAVENS AND THE EARTH" (Genesis 2:4)—by virtue of "AND THESE (VE-ELEH) ARE THE NAMES OF THE CHILDREN OF ISRAEL" (Exodus 1:1). And "AND THESE"—by virtue of what? By virtue of "THESE (ELEH) ARE THE TESTIMONIES, THE STATUTES, AND THE JUDGMENTS" (Deuteronomy 4:45).
