Midrash sobre Miqueas 4:2

R. Elazar said: "What is the meaning of the passage (Micha 4, 2) And many nations shall come, and say. Come ye, and let us go up to the mountain of the Lord and to the house of the God of Jacob. The God of Abraham and Isaac, is not stated here, but that of Jacob; i.e., neither like that of Abraham, who described it as a mountain, as it is said (Ex. 22, 14) On the mount of the Lord it shall be seen; nor like that of Isaac, who described it as a field, as it is said (Ib. 24, 63) And Isaac was gone out to mediate in the field; but like that of Jacob, who described it as a house, as it is said (Ib. 35, 7) And he called the name of that place Beth-El (the house of God)." R. Jochanan said: "The day on which the reunion of the exiled will occur, will be as great as the day on which heaven and earth were created; for it is said (Hos. 2, 2) Then shall the children of Judah and the children of Israel be gathered together, and they will appoint for themselves one head, and they shall go up out of the land; for great shall be the (Yom) day of Yisre-el. Behold, it is written (Gen. 1, 5) And it was morning and it was evening one (Yom) day."

(Gen. 22:2, cont.:) GO UNTO THE LAND OF MORIAH. R. Jannay and R. Hiyya differ.¹⁵⁶See also yBer. 4:5 (8c); Ta‘an. 16a. R. Jannay says: What is Moriah? The place from which {light} [religious awe] went forth to the world, as stated (in Ps. 68:36 [35]): YOU ARE AWESOME (mora), O GOD, OUT OF YOUR HOLY PLACES.¹⁵⁷I.e., the Sanctuary, the site of which is generally identified with Mount Moriah. R. Hiyya said: The place from which {the Torah} [instruction (hora'ah)] goes forth to the world, as stated (in Is. 2:3 // Micah 4:2): FOR THE TORAH SHALL COME FORTH OUT OF ZION.
