Hashem Derives The Most Pleasure From Baalei Teshuva

The Zohar Hakadosh (Chelek 3, 100B) writes similarly that even one who is distanced from Hashem and can draw close to Him through teshuva. The Me’or Einayim (Parshas Toldos) states that a baal teshuva provides Hashem with twice as much pleasure as He derives from the avodah of tzadikim.
