Ézéchiel 39:11 Commentaire : Rashi & Tze'enah Ure'enah

וְהָיָ֣ה בַיּ֣וֹם הַה֡וּא אֶתֵּ֣ן לְגוֹג֩ ׀ מְקֽוֹם־שָׁ֨ם קֶ֜בֶר בְּיִשְׂרָאֵ֗ל גֵּ֤י הָעֹֽבְרִים֙ קִדְמַ֣ת הַיָּ֔ם וְחֹסֶ֥מֶת הִ֖יא אֶת־הָעֹֽבְרִ֑ים וְקָ֣בְרוּ שָׁ֗ם אֶת־גּוֹג֙ וְאֶת־כָּל־הֲמוֹנֹ֔ה וְקָ֣רְא֔וּ גֵּ֖יא הֲמ֥וֹן גּֽוֹג׃

Et alors, ce jour-là, je donnerai à Gog un lieu de sépulture en Israël la vallée des Passants, à l’Orient de la mer et ce sera [une barrière] enfermant les passants; on y enterrera Gog et toute sa cohue et on l’appellera "Vallée de la Cohue de Gog".

Rashi

I will give Gog a place there as a grave A place where there will be a grave for them. Since he is of the seed of Japtheth, who covered his father’s nakedness, he therefore merited burial.

Rashi

the valley of those who pass along The valley where people pass the Sea of Kinnereth to bring from there Genossar fruits regularly.

Rashi

the east side of the sea Jonathan renders: on the east of the Sea of Gennasar.

Rashi

and it will then stop those who pass along [Heb. וְחֹסֶמֶת.] It closes off those who pass, like (Deut. 25: 4): “You shall not muzzle (לֹא תַחְסוֹם).” Because of the many corpses that will fall there, travelers will be prevented from passing through. Therefore, they will pass by them and bury them. Menachem (p. 91) interprets it in his book (Machbereth) to mean that they will close their nose so as not to smell the odor of the corpses.
