Nachschlagewerk zu Jeschijahu 28:34

The place of justice, His splendid beauty; May He elevate it above his greatest joy.

May His chosen people be a crown of beauty in His hand; may the gloriously beautiful people be a royal diadem.

Rabbi Shmuel related that whenever Rabbi Jonathan came to the passage, “For the bed is shorter than that a man can stretch himself on it” (Isaiah 28:20), he explained it to mean that the whole world is too small for God to share its rule with any other power.⁴⁾יומא ט׳ ב׳, סנהדרין ק״ג א׳. This statement of Rabbi Jonathan is no doubt part of his argument against people who believed in dual rule out of conviction that God could not alone govern the world and required the assistance of another.
