Kommentar zu Jechezkiel 7:2
וְאַתָּ֣ה בֶן־אָדָ֗ם כֹּה־אָמַ֞ר אֲדֹנָ֧י יְהוִ֛ה לְאַדְמַ֥ת יִשְׂרָאֵ֖ל קֵ֑ץ בָּ֣א הַקֵּ֔ץ עַל־ארבעת [אַרְבַּ֖ע] כַּנְפ֥וֹת הָאָֽרֶץ׃
'Und du, Menschensohn, so spricht der Herr, GOTT, über das Land Israel: Ein Ende! Das Ende ist an den vier Ecken des Landes gekommen.
Rashi on Ezekiel
The end has come Because I had said (Deut. 4:25): “and you will have grown old (וְנוֹשַּׁנְתֶּם) in the land, and you will practice corruption, etc., so that you will be lost.” [The word] וְנוֹשַּׁנְתֶּם has the numerical value of 852, but they stayed there for [only] 850 years: 440 from the time they entered it until the Temple was built, and [then] the Temple stood 410 years.
