Musar zu Bereschit 43:29
וַיִּשָּׂ֣א עֵינָ֗יו וַיַּ֞רְא אֶת־בִּנְיָמִ֣ין אָחִיו֮ בֶּן־אִמּוֹ֒ וַיֹּ֗אמֶר הֲזֶה֙ אֲחִיכֶ֣ם הַקָּטֹ֔ן אֲשֶׁ֥ר אֲמַרְתֶּ֖ם אֵלָ֑י וַיֹּאמַ֕ר אֱלֹהִ֥ים יָחְנְךָ֖ בְּנִֽי׃
Und er erhob seine Augen und sah Benjamin, seinen Bruder, seiner Mutter Sohn; und er fragte: Ist dies euer jüngster Bruder, von dem ihr mir erzählt habt? Und er sprach: Gott sei dir hold, mein Kind!
Kav HaYashar
[When the merchant finished his discourse] Rabbi Yose and Rabbi Chiya came and kissed him upon the head, saying, “If we had not come into the world for any reason other than to hear this, it would have been enough for us. Fortunate is the generation of Rabbi Shimon ben Yochai in which wisdom can be found even amidst the mountains!” Then they inquired, “What is your name?” He responded, “Chanan.” So they blessed him with the verse, “May God give you grace [yachnecha], my son” (Bereishis 43:29), adding, “May God hear your voice whenever you need Him.”
