Commento su Giudici 7:16
וַיַּ֛חַץ אֶת־שְׁלֹשׁ־מֵא֥וֹת הָאִ֖ישׁ שְׁלֹשָׁ֣ה רָאשִׁ֑ים וַיִּתֵּ֨ן שׁוֹפָר֤וֹת בְּיַד־כֻּלָּם֙ וְכַדִּ֣ים רֵקִ֔ים וְלַפִּדִ֖ים בְּת֥וֹךְ הַכַּדִּֽים׃
E divise i trecento uomini in tre compagnie e mise nelle mani di tutti loro corna e brocche vuote, con torce all'interno delle brocche.
Rashi on Judges
Shofars and torches to invoke the merit of the giving of the Torah.10 At Mount Sinai, when the shofar sounded, and fire descended on the mountain. (Shemos, 19:16–19). According to the plain explanation: this took place at night, as it is written,11V. 9. and it was dark. They therefore carried torches to provide them with light. They placed them in pitchers so that the torches would remain undetected.
