  1. The style of the Zohar is to write "דכתיב" (as it is written) as if to quote a Pasuk verbatim but then paraphrase the Pasuk.[1]
  2. When the Talmud and Zohar contradict, the Radbaz[2] is well known for positing that one should follow the Talmud and Poskim.[3]
  3. Whereas one must generally understand his learning to fulfill the Mitzvah of Talmud Torah, reading Zohar fulfills the Mitzvah regardless of one's understanding, because although the meaning of the Zohar is hidden, the concepts are not. The Zohar is explicit Sod, unlike other parts of Torah.[4]
