"Looking out from the holy home from heaven to bless your people Israel ..." (26, 15)
 
G-d expects the whole world watching and all creatures, as it is written "G-d's eyes are wandering all over the world", and - it must be 'looking at' special with - Israel, which say the weekly Torah portion: "looking out from the holy home from heaven and bless your people Israel ".
 
On the 'view' that the Sages said: "Any view of the Bible - for the worse, apart from looking out from the holy home from heaven... Makes the degree of irritation for mercy. "Anywhere in the Torah, when it says" G-d looked, the intention is G-d came to law and punish, and it's special power with Israel, they could make the degree of anger to pity, to that 'looked' this is a blessing.
 
Special virtue of Israel is expressed in verse "keep it like his eyes". With Israel likened the middle of G-d's eye. So the sages said: "Everyone who touches them (the children of Israel) as God's eye touched."
 
Whole eye is an organ of vision, but visual power of the eye is in pupil of the eye, the black part in the eye. It was expected that vision, its light and clarity, there will be a bright spot in the eye, but the reality is that black spot in the eye is the center of vision. It symbolizes the great virtue in making the darkness to light, that it was dark itself doing a great light.
 
Comparison with Israel and the middle of the eye associated with the special role of the Jewish people - as the middle of the eye represents the turning from darkness to light, so the Jewish people required making the dark world to divine light. God took the soul to this world and put it in the lower body, to the Jew will clarify the bestial soul and the physical world and turn the darkness to light.
 
Dealing with the physical world affairs seems to spiritual decline. Jewish sometimes wonder what to deal with these things, instead than completely give himself for Holy Torah. But he must remember that through the darkness to the light are great, like the middle of the eye.
 
Even the Torah itself there is this decrease. Torah as the supreme spiritual source that deals with lofty spiritual essences, here she came to this world and get dressed in matters of this world, in the "ox attack the cow" and the like. But by the Torah came down to the very law can be more than you can get the upper worlds.
 
So the whole point of this decline and darkness - to the very light, by making the darkness itself to light. So will the final redemption, when there will be "night will be light as day," (darkness itself will glow and light). The strength of Israel is also becoming the 'view' for the best blessing, to blessing the true and complete redemption immediately right.
