Talmud su Salmi 122:3

On the way they were saying (Ps. 122:2): “I rejoiced when I was told, we shall go to the Eternal’s House.” In Jerusalem, they said (Ps. 122:3): “Our feet were standing in Jerusalem.” On the Temple Mount they said (Ps. 150:1) “Hallelujah, praise God in His Sanctuary, etc.” In the Temple courtyard they said (Ps. 150:6): “Praise the Eternal every soul, praise the Eternal”¹⁷They timed the recitation of Ps. 150 to last from the gate of the Temple Mount to the gate of the Temple enclosure..

Rebbi Joshua ben Levi said, Jerusalem, built like a city which combines in fellowship¹⁸⁴Ps. 122:3. The Babli 26a quotes another verse., the city which confers fellowship on all of Israel¹⁸⁵All of Israel are presumed to strictly observe all rules of purity.. Then even on all other days of the year? Rebbi Ze`ira said, in the time when the tribes ascended¹⁸⁶Ps. 122:4, the holidays of pilgrimage..

It was stated: “One does not raise chickens in Jerusalem because of the sacrifices, nor may Cohanim in the Land of Israel because of purities.” I could think also in Jerusalem in this way⁹⁸That people eating sacrifices may not raise chickens but all others may., but it might follow what Rebbi Joshua ben Levi said, “Jerusalem the built-up⁹⁹Ps. 122:3. The argument is about the second half of the verse which is not quoted: “A city joined together.” All its inhabitants are joined in its holiness.
In Ḥagigah 3:6, The same remark by R. Joshua ben Levi’s is given quite a different interpretation.” etc., the city which joins Israel one to the other.
