Midrash su Geremia 29:27

וְעַתָּ֗ה לָ֚מָּה לֹ֣א גָעַ֔רְתָּ בְּיִרְמְיָ֖הוּ הָֽעֲנְּתֹתִ֑י הַמִּתְנַבֵּ֖א לָכֶֽם׃

Ora, quindi, perché non hai rimproverato Geremia di Anathoth, che si è profetizzato per te,

Bereishit Rabbah

And he dreamed yet another dream (Gen. 37:9) - at the moment Yosef said "and behold the sun and the moon" Yaakov said "who told him that my name is sun?" Rabbi Yitzchak said: [when Joshua was making the sun stand still] Joshua said to the sun: 'you evil servant! Did not my father buy you with money? My father saw you in his dream "and behold the sun and the moon etc bowed down to me", you, too need to stop right now!' And the sun did stop, immediately, as it is written " And the sun stood still and the moon halted, " (Joshua 10:13). "And when he told it to his father and brothers, his father berated him" (Gen. 37:10) - the Holy Blessed One said: the same way they will berate their prophets, as it is written "and now, why didn't you berate Jeremiah from Anatot?" (Jer. 29:27) "And he said to him: 'what is this dream you dreamed?' (Gen. 37:10) - Rabbi Levi in the name of Rabbi Chama bar Chanina: [we see] that our father Yaakov believed that the resurrection of the dead would happen in his days, as it is written "would we come" - I and your brothers would come, that's expected, but not I and your mother who is already dead. But you are saying that I, and your mother and your brothers!? And Ya'akov did not know that the issue was regarding Bilhah, Rachel's handmaid, who raised Yosef like his own mother.
