Midrash su Salmi 119:15
בְּפִקֻּדֶ֥יךָ אָשִׂ֑יחָה וְ֝אַבִּ֗יטָה אֹרְחֹתֶֽיךָ׃
Mediterò nei tuoi precetti e rispetterò le tue vie.

Ergo, < Scripture > speaks as though on this day I received it from Sinai. Thus it says (in Deut. 26:16): THIS DAY THE LORD YOUR GOD IS COMMANDING YOU TO PERFORM THESE STATUTES….
