Midrash su Deuteronomio 17:20
לְבִלְתִּ֤י רוּם־לְבָבוֹ֙ מֵֽאֶחָ֔יו וּלְבִלְתִּ֛י ס֥וּר מִן־הַמִּצְוָ֖ה יָמִ֣ין וּשְׂמֹ֑אול לְמַעַן֩ יַאֲרִ֨יךְ יָמִ֧ים עַל־מַמְלַכְתּ֛וֹ ה֥וּא וּבָנָ֖יו בְּקֶ֥רֶב יִשְׂרָאֵֽל׃ (ס)
che il suo cuore non sia sollevato sopra i suoi fratelli e che non si allontani dal comandamento, dalla destra o dalla sinistra; fino alla fine per prolungare i suoi giorni nel suo regno, lui e i suoi figli, in mezzo a Israele.
Ein Yaakov (Glick Edition)
(Fol. 32b) Our Rabbis were taught (Deut. 17, 20) Justice, only justice, shalt thou pursue. This means that one shall follow after celebrated judges, after R. Elazar at Luda and after Rabban Jochanan b. Zakkai at Brur Cheil. We are taught in a Baraitha: if one saw many lights in the city of Burni, it was understood that the ceremony of circumcission took place; and if one saw many lights in Brur Cheil, he undersotod that there was a wedding banquet in that city."
