Commentary for Amos 9:12

לְמַ֨עַן יִֽירְשׁ֜וּ אֶת־שְׁאֵרִ֤ית אֱדוֹם֙ וְכָל־הַגּוֹיִ֔ם אֲשֶׁר־נִקְרָ֥א שְׁמִ֖י עֲלֵיהֶ֑ם נְאֻם־יְהוָ֖ה עֹ֥שֶׂה זֹּֽאת׃ (פ)

That they may possess the remnant of Edom, And all the nations, upon whom My name is called, Saith the LORD that doeth this.

Rashi on Amos

In order that they inherit—[I.e, in order that] Israel [inherit] the remnant of Edom etc. because My Name is called upon them Heb. אֲשֶׁר, like כִּי, because.
