lesson he gave to his disciples, Rabbi Pinto brought the words of the holy Zohar, which says that in order for the mitzvah to ascend to heaven, a person must have two conditions, love of God and fear of God.
Rabbi Pinto explains that this was the meaning of the Gemara, in an act about Elisha with wings, that a policeman stopped him while cutting and wanted to kill him while walking with tefillin, and Elisha said to the policeman: I have two wings, love of God and fear of God, according to the explanation of the earth. Rabbi Pinto. In
order for the mitzvah to be perfect and ascend to heaven, a person must have the love of God and the fear of God, both to love the Holy One and to fear him. If not - the mitzvah categorizes the person for not completing it.
