(Deut. 22:6)... in any tree... – this is ‘the tree of life’, of which it is stated: (Prov. 3:18) It is a tree of life to them that take hold of it... And upon it is stated: (Deut. 20:19)... because the human is a tree of the field...
And furthermore: (Deut. 22:6)... in any tree... – this is the Righteous-One, Who is: (Gen. 1:11)... a tree making fruit of its kind... And this is the Sabbath day, for it is there that is the coupling of the Shekhinah with the blessed Holy One. And there, She has [Var. He has] relief, and upon that is stated: (Ps. 1:3) And it shall be as a tree planted by rivulets of water, that will give its fruit in its season... This is ‘the time of the Righteous-One’, which is Sabbath eve. For from the Righteous-One fly-forth new souls in Israel – on the Sabbath eve – which are called [Var. therefore, they are called], ‘new faces’.
