It is said in the Introduction of The Book of Zohar that there are three types of fear and only one of them is real.

The first type of fear is when a person keeps the commandments in order to be protected from bodily and monetary punishment in this world.

The second type is fear of punishment in the future world. But real fear is the third type when a person is in fear before the Creator.

Since the Creator is a common force that includes and holds the entire universe, fulfilling the laws of the Creator, that is, His commandments, is the most important task of a person. By this, he not only ensures the correct state for himself, the people, the world, and the entire universe, but also looks into the future, sees, and attains everything that can happen, and corrects it.
