Zohar on Tehillim 76 - The Earth Trembled
Tehillim 76:8
- "Mishamayim hishmata din - eretz yare'ah veshakata" - (From heaven You proclaimed judgment—the earth trembled and was still).
The earth saw that the Kadosh Baruch Hu had invited all the nations of the world to receive the Torah, but they refused, and only the people of Israel remained, to whom the Torah had not yet been offered. The earth thought that apparently the Jewish people would refuse as well—and it "trembled." But when the Jews said "Na'aseh venishma" (we will do and we will hear), the earth calmed down—"and was still."..
(Zohar on Balak, Sulam, Tzvi Nisanzon)
