Midrash su Lamentazioni 5:3

יְתוֹמִ֤ים הָיִ֙ינוּ֙ אין [וְאֵ֣ין] אָ֔ב אִמֹּתֵ֖ינוּ כְּאַלְמָנֽוֹת׃

Siamo diventati orfani e senza padre, le nostre madri sono vedove.

Eikhah Rabbah

“We have become orphans, fatherless; our mothers are like widows” (Lamentations 5:3).
“We have become orphans, fatherless.” Rabbi Berekhya said in the name of Rabbi Levi: The Holy One blessed be He said to Israel: ‘You wept and said before Me: “We have become orphans, fatherless.” As you live, the redeemer that I am destined to establish for you in Media will not have a father and mother.’ That is what is written: “He was raising Hadasa, she is Esther his uncle’s daughter, because she had no father or mother” (Esther 2:7).
