Midrash sur Les Proverbes 5:23

R. Ami said: "Doeg did not die before he had forgotten all his studies, as it is said (Pr. 5, 23) He will indeed die for want of correction; and through the abundance of his folly will he sink into error." R. Jochanan said: "Three angels of destruction attended Doeg; one who caused him to forget his study, and one who burned his soul, and the third who scattered his ashes in the houses of prayer and study." R. Jochanan said further: "Doeg and Achitophel did not see each other, as Doeg was in the days of Saul and Achitophel in the days of David." R. Jochanan said further: "Both Doeg and Achitophel have not lived half of their days." We are also taught so in the following Baraitha: All the years of Doeg were only thirty-four, and those of Achitophel, thirty-three.
