The Torah's mysticism

Hi,

"Ramban and the mystics wrote that 'heavens and earth' include the world of Divine influence. This has a place, but not in the simple explanation, for in the simple explanation the Torah is called 'an expert pedagogue.'

(Malbim to Bereishit 1:1, note ב)

Have a great day,
Mordechai
