Commentaire sur Michée 5:1
וְאַתָּ֞ה בֵּֽית־לֶ֣חֶם אֶפְרָ֗תָה צָעִיר֙ לִֽהְיוֹת֙ בְּאַלְפֵ֣י יְהוּדָ֔ה מִמְּךָ֙ לִ֣י יֵצֵ֔א לִֽהְי֥וֹת מוֹשֵׁ֖ל בְּיִשְׂרָאֵ֑ל וּמוֹצָאֹתָ֥יו מִקֶּ֖דֶם מִימֵ֥י עוֹלָֽם׃
Or, c’est de toi Bethléem-Efrata, si peu importante parmi les groupes de Juda, c’est de toi que je veux que sorte celui qui est destiné à dominer sur Israël et dont l’origine remonte aux temps lointains, aux jours antiques.
