Talmud for Genesis 18:4
יֻקַּֽח־נָ֣א מְעַט־מַ֔יִם וְרַחֲצ֖וּ רַגְלֵיכֶ֑ם וְהִֽשָּׁעֲנ֖וּ תַּ֥חַת הָעֵֽץ׃
Let now a little water be fetched, and wash your feet, and recline yourselves under the tree.
Jerusalem Talmud Ketubot
“The sons shall go begging.” Some Tannaïm state, “shall support themselves.74In Baba batra, the Escurial ms. has a third reading יסחרו “shall go around.”” He who says “shall support themselves”, “make yourselves comfortable under the tree.75Gen. 18:4. The text reads וְהִשָּׁעֲנוּ תַּחַת הָעֵץ.” He who says, “go begging”, “may his children wander about begging, asking out of their ruins.76Ps.109:10.”
