"Sifra d'Zniuta" is part of the ZOHAR and commentating Parashat Terumah. And, as we know, Terumah is this week's Torah Parasha. 

It says that the book reveals thought. A human thought is only being revealed by speech or writing. The same with G - d who revealed His will through creation. For example: By "saying" - Let there be light - G - d revealed His will. 

Remark:
 "Saying" - G - d speaking is nothing but a metapher, as He didn't need to speak in a literal sense.
