Quotation sobre Josué 15:19
וַתֹּ֜אמֶר תְּנָה־לִּ֣י בְרָכָ֗ה כִּ֣י אֶ֤רֶץ הַנֶּ֙גֶב֙ נְתַתָּ֔נִי וְנָתַתָּ֥ה לִ֖י גֻּלֹּ֣ת מָ֑יִם וַיִּתֶּן־לָ֗הּ אֵ֚ת גֻּלֹּ֣ת עִלִּיּ֔וֹת וְאֵ֖ת גֻּלֹּ֥ת תַּחְתִּיּֽוֹת׃ (פ)
Y ella respondió: Dame bendición: pues que me has dado tierra de secadal, dame también fuentes de aguas. El entonces le dió las fuentes de arriba, y las de abajo.

Rabbi Amorai sat and expounded: What is the meaning of the verse (Deut. 33:23), "And full of the LORD’s blessing, Take possession on the west and south." Moses was saying, "If you follow my decrees, you will inherit both this world and the next." The World to Come is likened to the sea, as it is written (Job 11:9), "And broader than the sea." The present world is referred to as the South. It is thus written (Josh. 15:19), "...for you have given me away as Negeb-land..." The Targum translates this, "behold the earth is the south."
