Rabbi Yitzchak wept, and said, please, don&rsquo;t separate from me all these days.<\/p>\n<p>Lesson;<br>\nThe great friendship and joined studies bound them in this life and the next. The Torah they studied supported them in this world and would continue to support them in the heavens.<br>\nThe Tzadikim in the Garden of Eden can choose who will be with them. For this reason, Tzadikim are buried next to other tzadikim and others according to their spiritual levels. Commonly, families buy burial plots for the family ahead of death to be closer to each other in the heavens. It is not good to be buried next to a wicked person.<br>\nThe Light of the Torah we study and our good deeds create the <a class=\"glossaryLink\" aria-describedby=\"tt\" data-cmtooltip=\"&lt;div class=glossaryItemTitle&gt;Garment&lt;\/div&gt;&lt;div class=glossaryItemBody&gt;A spiritual garment is a &amp;#039;form&amp;#039; that expresses a type of light.The Light is revealed in this world only when it is &amp;#039;dressed&amp;#039; in a form that can be defined as a shape, color, or vibration.Our studies and spiritual connections add Lights to our spiritual garments that we carry with us to the next world.Negative actions\/sins create &amp;#039;holes&amp;#039; in our garments that drain the Light we previously earned.&amp;amp;nbsp;&lt;\/div&gt;\" href=\"https:\/\/staging.dailyzohar.com\/?glossary=garment\" data-gt-translate-attributes=\"[{&quot;attribute&quot;:&quot;data-cmtooltip&quot;, &quot;format&quot;:&quot;html&quot;}]\" tabindex=\"0\" role=\"link\">garment<\/a> we wear in the heavens.
