Quotation zu Jirmejahu 18:3
וָאֵרֵ֖ד בֵּ֣ית הַיּוֹצֵ֑ר והנהו [וְהִנֵּה־] [ה֛וּא] עֹשֶׂ֥ה מְלָאכָ֖ה עַל־הָאָבְנָֽיִם׃
Dann ging ich zum Töpfer hinunter's Haus, und siehe, er war bei seiner Arbeit auf den Rädern.
Midrash Tanchuma
And God remembered Rachel (Gen. 30:22). May our master teach us whether a man may recite the prayer “May it be Your will that my wife give birth to a son” if she is already pregnant. Our masters teach us: The man who prays “May it be Your will that my wife give birth to a son” when she has already conceived is uttering a vain prayer (and is taking the Lord’s name in vain).
