Over here it says, “For G‑d, it’s bright above the clouds.”

But over here it says, “He makes darkness His hiding place.”

Is G‑d in the darkness or is He in the light?

A third verse answers: “For You, darkness is as light and light is as darkness.”

-Sefer HaBahir

This is the way of Torah:

First we find light. Then we find darkness that contradicts the light. And then Torah reveals an inner oneness that transcends light and darkness.

Torah reveals the Essence of all things. ​
