Seventy Faces of Torah Suspended Between Two Torahs

And so it is, in the Torah, the seventy faces are suspended from two Torahs: the Written Torah and the Oral Torah.

And in exile: (Hos. 10:2) Their heart (libam, =72) divided, which are the 72 righteous-ones, who are like the Sanhedrin. And the mystery of the matter: (Is. 30:18)... happy are all who wait ‘for Him’ (lo, =36). ‘... for Him’ in numeric-value amounts to thirty-six, and they are the 36 righteous in the Land of Israel, and 36 righteous outside the Land of Israel – and this is the meaning of Their heart (libam, =72) divided. (Hos. 10:2)
