Commentaire sur Amos 3:15
וְהִכֵּיתִ֥י בֵית־הַחֹ֖רֶף עַל־בֵּ֣ית הַקָּ֑יִץ וְאָבְד֞וּ בָּתֵּ֣י הַשֵּׁ֗ן וְסָפ֛וּ בָּתִּ֥ים רַבִּ֖ים נְאֻם־יְהוָֽה׃ (ס)
Alors je ferai crouler le palais d’hiver sur le palais d’été, les maisons d’ivoire seront ruinées, et c’en sera fini des habitations imposantes, dit l’Éternel."
