          <text>“There is nothing new under the sun” (1:9). On the eve of the Sabbath at twilight – between the six days of nature, and the seventh, which belongs to the One who transcends nature. The mouth of the earth, which opened to swallow Koraḥ; the mouth of the well, which accompanied the Israelites on their journey through the wilderness; the mouth of [Balaam’s] ass, which spoke (Num. 22:28); the rainbow, which appeared after the Flood; the manna, which descended as “bread from heaven”; the staff, with which Moses performed signs and wonders; the Shamir, the miraculous worm which, according to tradition, split the stones from which the Temple was made; the writing [on the Tablets], which could be seen from both sides; the inscription of the Tablets and the Tablets themselves, hewn and inscribed by God. Some say, also tongs made with tongs: the infinite regress – what held the first implement forged by fire, if not another implement forged by fire?</text>

          <text>5:10. Seven types of punishment: As heirs to the prophetic tradition, the sages sought to understand national calamities as divine punishment, measure for measure, for national failings, religious, ethical or social. Thus the appropriate response to tragedy was collective penitence and rededication of the nation to the principles on which it was founded.</text>

          <text>5:13. Robbing the poor of their gifts: The gleanings of the harvest, the corners of the field, and forgotten sheaves. These were to be left for the poor at harvest time; hence the connection with Sukkot, the harvest festival.</text>

          <text>5:14. Some say this is a Sodom type: The sin of Sodom, according to Ezekiel 16:49, was that “they did not help the poor and needy.” Insisting on property rights, they frowned on charity. An ignoramus: this, according to some scholars, is a critique of the property-sharing communes associated with the Essenes.</text>
