134. It is written, \u201cHe crushes me with a tempest, and multiplies my wounds without cause.\u201d \u201cWith a tempest\u201d is Satan, whose way is as a snake, which preys and kills and does not enjoy. And because \u201cHe crushes me with a tempest, and multiplies my wounds without cause,\u201d since his way is to harm without cause and kill prey without cause.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
135. He does not work without permission, as it is written, \u201ca stormy wind does His word,\u201d and as it is written, \u201cif the snake bites without a hiss,\u201d meaning that the snake does not bite until it is whispered from above. Sometimes, it is whispered from above to put to death a certain person, and the snake does not know who it is, and kills another person. Happy is one who is not known to the serpent and is not registered before it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
136. It is written, \u201cThe name of the man Elimelech.\u201d Since his name was registered and known to Satan, he complained about him in the judgment until he killed him, as it is written, \u201cand Elimelech died.\u201d Since the judgment began in him, it also began in his sons. Everything was by the punishment of a judge, for Elimelech was a judge. There is no punishment like the punishment of a judge, so it will not be said that the judge alone is punished, but rather he and his sons, and his entire household are caught in the iniquity of the judgment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
137. The judge should know and persecute the town\u2019s people, and admonish them, since he is caught by their iniquities. The judge should not say, \u201cI must pass judgment between people, and nothing more. Rather, all the deeds of the town\u2019s people are hanging on his neck. If he shuts his eyes from the deeds of the town\u2019s people, he is caught for their iniquities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
138. Elimelech could rise and defend the generation since he was righteous. When the Creator awakened over the world with judgment, He looked at the heads of the people and wanted to cover for Elimelech. In the beginning, it is written simply \u201cman,\u201d and it is not written who he is, for He wanted to cover him. Promptly, the slanderer rose and said, \u201cAnd the name of the man Elimelech,\u201d registered and known, he, and his entire household.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
139. Thus, there is no judge in any generation who is not registered and known above. When judgment awakens over the world, he is sentenced first, as it is written, \u201cwhen the judges judged,\u201d to judge the judges.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
