Commento su Giona 2:7
לְקִצְבֵ֤י הָרִים֙ יָרַ֔דְתִּי הָאָ֛רֶץ בְּרִחֶ֥יהָ בַעֲדִ֖י לְעוֹלָ֑ם וַתַּ֧עַל מִשַּׁ֛חַת חַיַּ֖י יְהוָ֥ה אֱלֹהָֽי׃
Sono andato in fondo alle montagne; La terra con le sue sbarre si chiuse su di me per sempre; Eppure hai tratto la mia vita dalla fossa, Signore mio Dio.
Rashi on Jonah
To the bottoms of the mountains I descended—To the end of the measure of the mountains fixed to the deep, I descended.
