Sifrei Devarim · Chapter 66

‹›
  1. 1

    (דברים יב ט) עַד מָתַי? כִּי לֹא בָאתֶם עַד עָתָּה וְגוֹ׳, לִתֵּן הֶתֵּר בַּבָּמָה בֵּין מְנוּחָה לְנַחֲלָה.

    (Devarim 12:9) "For you have not as yet come": to be permitted (again to sacrifice) on a bamah.

  2. 2

    נַחֲלָה זוֹ שִׁילֹה, ״מְנוּחָה״ זוֹ יְרוּשָׁלִַם, שֶׁנֶּאֱמַר (תהלים קלב יד): ״זֹאת מְנוּחָתִי עֲדֵי עַד״. דִּבְרֵי רַבִּי שִׁמְעוֹן. רַבִּי יְהוּדָה אוֹמֵר: חִלּוּף הֵם הַדְּבָרִים.

    "to the rest and to the inheritance": "the inheritance": This is Shiloh; "the rest": This is Jerusalem, as it is written (Psalms 132:14) "This is My resting place forever. Here will I dwell, for I desire her." These are the words of R. Shimon. R. Yehudah says: Reverse it, it being written (Jeremiah 12:8-9) "My inheritance (Jerusalem) has become to Me like a lion in the forest … Like a bird of prey has My inheritance become to Me."
