Kabbalah zu Bereschit 37:7
וְ֠הִנֵּה אֲנַ֜חְנוּ מְאַלְּמִ֤ים אֲלֻמִּים֙ בְּת֣וֹךְ הַשָּׂדֶ֔ה וְהִנֵּ֛ה קָ֥מָה אֲלֻמָּתִ֖י וְגַם־נִצָּ֑בָה וְהִנֵּ֤ה תְסֻבֶּ֙ינָה֙ אֲלֻמֹּ֣תֵיכֶ֔ם וַתִּֽשְׁתַּחֲוֶ֖יןָ לַאֲלֻמָּתִֽי׃
Wir banden gerade Garben auf dem Felde, da richtete sich meine Garbe auf und blieb dann stehn, eure Garben aber stellten sich ringsum und warfen sich vor meiner Garbe nieder.
Or Neerav
Let them be bound: [As] it states, Behold, we were binding sheaves in the field (Gen. 37:7).6In Cordovero’s citation, this verse was not in its proper order. I have restored the text according to J. Theodor and Ch. Albeck, Midrash Bereshit Rabbah (Jerusalem: Wahrman, 1965), vol. 1, p. 3. Let them be made dumb: This is as you might say, who makes a man dumb or deaf (Exod. 4:11).
