38. וְעַל כֵּן דָּוִד הָיָה מְשַׁעֵר אֶת שִׁעוּר הַלַּיְלָה כְּדֵי שֶׁיִּתְקַיֵּם בַּחַיִּים, שֶׁלֹּא יִשְׁלֹט בּוֹ טַעַם הַמָּוֶת, וּכְשֶׁנֶּחֱלַק הַלַּיְלָה הָיָה דָוִד עוֹמֵד בִּמְקוֹמוֹ, מִשּׁוּם שֶׁכַּאֲשֶׁר מִתְעוֹרֵר חֲצוֹת הַלַּיְלָה וְהַכֶּתֶר הַקָּדוֹשׁ מִתְעוֹרֵר, צָרִיךְ שֶׁלֹּא יִמְצָא אֶת דָּוִד קָשׁוּר בְּמָקוֹם אַחֵר, בִּמְקוֹם הַמָּוֶת.
\n39. מִשּׁוּם שֶׁכַּאֲשֶׁר נֶחֱלָק הַלַּיְלָה וְהַקְּדֻשָּׁה הָעֶלְיוֹנָה מִתְעוֹרֶרֶת, וְאָדָם שֶׁיָּשֵׁן בְּמִטָּתוֹ וְלֹא מִתְעוֹרֵר לְהַשְׁגִּיחַ בִּכְבוֹד רִבּוֹנוֹ, הִנֵּה הוּא נִקְשָׁר בְּסוֹד הַמָּוֶת, וְנִדְבָּק לְמָקוֹם אַחֵר, וְעַל כֵּן דָּוִד הַמֶּלֶךְ הָיָה עוֹמֵד לְהַשְׁגִּיחַ בִּכְבוֹד רִבּוֹנוֹ תָּמִיד, חַי אֵצֶל חַי, וְלֹא נִרְדַּם בַּשֵּׁנָה לִטְעֹם טַעַם הַמָּוֶת, וּמִשּׁוּם כָּךְ הָיָה מִתְנַמְנֵם כְּמוֹ סוּס, שִׁשִּׁים נְשִׁימוֹת, וְלֹא בִּשְׁלֵמוּת.<\/div>\n

\nZohar Vayigash<\/strong>
\n#38<\/p>\n

The time from sundown to the middle of the night is under the control of the other side<\/a>. King David didn’t really go to sleep. He was like dozing off for 60 breaths and waking up. After midnight the light of the new day begins to appear and he use to wake up to disconnect completely from the aspects of death and connect to the light that begins to be revealed in the world. That light after midnight is the aspect of Keter<\/a> and King David was ready to connect to it with studying the Torah and writing his praise in Psalms.<\/p>\n

King David came from the lowest point possible. His father, Jesse (Yishai) was a righteous man. After seven children, Jesse who was the grandson of the convert, Ruth the Moabite, had a thought that he may not follow the Torah laws (Deuteronomy 23:4<\/a>), which forbids connection with the people of Moab. Because of that he didn’t divorce his wife, Nitzevet, but abstained from having sex with her for a few years. He was righteous and later for spiritual reasons decided to marry his home servant after releasing her from service.
\nAt that time a woman can be married with mutual acceptance and by unification by the act of sex. The servant that knew how sad was Jesse’s wife because of the separation from her righteous husband, share with Nitzevet her husband’s wish. Like Rachel and Leah, the faithful servant gave Nitzevet the ‘signs’ of the marriage to take her place. Nitzevet prepared herself with purification in the Mikveh<\/a> and prayers and came to her husband instead of the servant.
\nJesse didn’t know the truth and his wife became pregnant with a child.
\nThe family thought that Nitzevet was unfaithful but to keep the dignity of the family they let David be born but treated him as an outcast. He was sent to be far from home to look after the herd.
\nKing David’s life story shows how he came from the lowest point to become a king that from him will come to the Mashiach. That’s the aspect of rising from darkness to the greatest possible revelation of Light.
\nKing David learned to be humble and had a lot of time in nature to be with God that protected him his entire life.
\nThe story of making David a king is also special. God sent Samuel the prophet to the house of Jesse to anoint the king to be after King Saul. Samuel asked Jesse to bring all his sons before him. One by one they passed before him but the oil didn’t react to them. Samuel asked if these are all his sons and Jesse said yes and hesitantly said that there is the small one, David with the herd. Jesse was still under the impression that David is not his son and did not count him as a son. Samuel asked to send for David, stating that he must wait for him because God expected him to see all the sons of Jesse. Even Samuel at that point didn’t know who is going to be anointed. When David came Samuel noticed the oil reacting to David’s presence. At the same time, he received the message from God to anoint him. To the surprise of the family, the ‘black sheep’ became the new king of Israel<\/a>.
\nThe newly anointed king was still humble even after knowing that he will be the next king. His faith<\/a> in God grew deeper as he received divine inspiration. The sages tell us that on that day he started writing Psalms.
\nB”H we see King David soon coming soon to life as the first to resurrect, welcoming the new king of the world, the Mashiach from the house of David.
