Megillah
Vayehi, as they journeyed east (Genesis 11:20) — then they said, come let us build a city. Vayehi in the days of Amrafel (Genesis 14:1) — then they made war. Vayehi when Joshua was in Jericho (Joshua 5:13) — then his [the angel’s] sword was drawn in his hand. And the Lord was [vayehi] with Joshua (Joshua 6:27) — then the children of Israel trespassed. Vayehi a certain man of Ramataim-Zophim (I Samuel 1:1) — then, for he loved Hannah but the Lord had shut up her womb.
Megillah
