Jerusalem Talmud Berakhot

In the house of Yannai they said, if she is sitting on the birthing stool. Hence, before that he should pray, because of (Jer. 18:6) “Lo, like clay in the potter’s hand212“… Are you in My hand, House of Israel.” This seems to imply, in the opinion of the Yerushalmi, that for Gentiles the laws of nature will not be changed and the sex of the child is determined at conception, or, in the opinion of the Babli (60a), in extraordinary cases at least during the first 40 days of pregnancy when the fetus is not yet a living being. The Babli declares that in all cases, the laws of nature prevail and that the sex change of Dinah is no proof since “one does not bring a proof from miracles.” It would be presumptuous for anybody to assume that he is on the level of the Patriarchs for whom God used to perform wonders. …” Rebbi Yehudah ben Pazi213The name is missing here in the Venice print and the Leyden manuscript. It is given in the Rome manuscript and the parallel Bereshit rabba 72(6). In the latter source, R. Jehudah ben Pazi is in opposition to the house of Rebbi Yannai and says that even if labor has started, as long as the baby is not born one may pray because of the verse from Jeremiah. in the name of the house of Yannai: The main pregnancy of Dinah was as a male. After the prayer of Rachel, she became a female. That is (Gen. 30:21): “Afterwards, she gave birth to a daughter and called her name Dinah.” After the prayer of Rachel, she became a female. And Rebbi Yehudah ben Pazi in the name of the house of Rebbi Yannai: Our mother Rachel was of the early prophetesses214In both versions of the Tanḥuma (Buber Wayeẓe 19, Standard Wayeẓe 8), Leah was the prophetess who knew that Jacob would have 12 sons and if she had 7 sons then her sister would be left with only one son, less than any of the maids. She therefore prayed that her pregnancy should be that of a girl. All Midrashim derive the name of Dinah not from דין “law, lawsuit”, but from די “enough”, meaning “we already have enough boys.”. She said, another one will be from me. That is what is written (Gen. 30:24): “May the Eternal add me another son.” She did not say other sons, but another son will be from me.

R. Yohanan said, Were it not for following three Scriptural verses, the feet of the enemies of Israel would have sunk. One is the verse, “And her that I have afflicted”; the other is the verse, “Behold, as the clay in the potter’s hand, so are you in My hand, O House of Israel” (Jeremiah 18:6); and the third, “And I will take away the heart of stone out of your flesh, and I will give you a heart of flesh” (Ezekiel 36:26).
