Rabbi Yitzhak said, \u201cWhen we are seated before Rabbi Shimon, everything is said before him openly, and we do not need to cover the matters with names and appellations. Rabbi Shimon is not like other people, who are all before him like the rest of the prophets are before Moses. It is written, \u2018Can a woman forget her nursing child, and not have compassion for the son of her womb?\u2019 If in the assembly of friends, we were not given support in the support of clarifying this verse, what could we say?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>230. \u201cI heard a voice implying to me the meaning of the verse one day, while I was walking on the road. I did not know who spoke, and I do not know the matter. I was sick over it for seven days and did not taste a thing, and now I am going to Rabbi Shimon to tell me; perhaps I will remember.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>231. Israel said to the Creator, \u201cSince the day we have fallen into exile, the Creator has left us in exile and has forgotten us, as it is written, \u2018And Zion said, \u2018The Lord has left me and the Lord has forgotten me.\u2019\u2019\u201d The Shechina said, \u201cCan a woman forget her nursing child?\u201d Israel are called \u201cchildren,\u201d as it is written, \u201cYou are the children of the Lord, your God.\u201d Can they be forgotten? It is written, \u201cAnd I will not forget you,\u201d meaning that the Creator never leaves Israel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>232. \u201cCan a woman forget her nursing child, and not have compassion for the son of her womb?\u201d The Creator said, \u201cThese words are gripped in My name. As the Creator does not forget His name, so the Creator does not forget Israel, since they are truly gripped in His name. Blessed be the Creator, because I met you and knew the matter; I also knew from whom it was that I heard.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>229.
