Talmud su Cantico dei cantici 6:78

Beloved are Israel [by God], for they observe all the commandments that are in the Torah. How? Tefillin on their hands, tefillin on their heads, a mezuzah on their doors and four ẓiẓith on their garments. Concerning them David, king of Israel, said, Seven times a day do I praise Thee, because of Thy righteous ordinances.⁹⁷Ps. 119, 164.
[The Sages] illustrated this with a parable. To what may this be compared? To a king who said to his wife, ‘Be well dressed and adorned in my presence’. ‘For what reason?’ she asked him. ‘In order that you may be acceptable to me,’ he replied. Similarly the Holy One, blessed be He, said to Israel, ‘My children, be well dressed and adorned in My presence with [your performance of] the commandments’. ‘For what reason?’ they asked Him. ‘In order,’ He replied, ‘that you may be acceptable to Me’; as it is stated, Thou art beautiful, O my love, as Tirẓah,⁹⁸Cant. 6, 4. [which means,] ‘Thou art beautiful when thou art acceptable⁹⁹Tirẓah is of the same root as raẓuï (acceptable). to Me through [thy performance of] the commandments’.

When Rebbi Ḥiyya bar Ada³⁰⁹A second generation Amora in Galilee. He had the reputation of a saintly man. He might have been a student of the young Rav in the Academy of Rebbi, but his main teacher was R. Simeon ben Laqish.
Since the topic of condolences and eulogies is implied in the previous text, a list of sample eulogies follows. Most of these are found (with some change in names) in Midrash Rabba, Song of Songs on 6:2, Ecclesiastes on 5:11., the nephew of Bar Qappara, died did Resh Laqish accept for him since he was his teacher and a student is beloved as a son³¹⁰Hence, a teacher may formally mourn a student. In the Babli (Moëd Qaṭan 26b), only a student may formally mourn a teacher.. He went and eulogized him: (Song of Songs 6:2) “My friend descended to his garden, to the spice patch³¹¹While the masoretic text has “spice patches”, the consonantal spelling here seems to prefer the singular which also is appropriate to the sermon based on this verse. This does not imply that the verse in Resh Laqish’s Bible had here a singular, only that the interpretation as singular is more convenient for his sermon., to shepherd in the gardens.”³¹²As with most Scriptural quotes in the Talmud, the main inference is to be drawn from the part of the verse that is not quoted; the student is expected to recognize the verse and to complete it himself. The spelling is left as in the manuscripts and is not edited to conform to our masoretic texts. It would have been necessary only to say “ “My friend descended to shepherd in the gardens.” But “my friend” is the Holy One, praise to Him. “He descended to His garden”, that is the world. “To the spice patch”, that is Israel. “To shepherd in the gardens”, these are the peoples of the world. “And to collect lilies”, these are the just ones whom He removes from their midst. They gave a parable, to what can this be compared? To a king who had a son whom he loved very much. What did the king do? He planted a garden for him. When the son did the will of his father, the father searched in the entire world for a nice plant and planted it in his garden. When the son was making him angry, he cut down all his plants. So when Israel does the will of the Holy One, praise to Him, he searches the entire world and observes the just person, brings him and attaches him to Israel, like Jethro and Rahab. And when they are making him angry he removes the just ones from amongst them³¹³Implying that Rebbi Ḥiyya bar Ada was collected because of the sins of his generation..

The Divine Presence descended to the world ten times. Once in the Garden of Eden, as it says (Genesis 3:8), “They heard the sound of the Eternal God moving in the garden,” and it [also] says (Song of Songs 6:2), “My beloved has gone down to his garden.” Once in the generation of the Tower of Babel, as it says (Genesis 11:5), “And the Eternal went down to see the city and the tower.” Once in Sodom, as it says (Genesis 18:21), “I will go down and I will see about the cries that have come up to Me.” Once in Egypt, as it says (Exodus 3:8), “I have come down to save them from the hands of the Egyptians.” Once at the sea, as it says (Psalms 18:10), “And He bent the heavens and came down.” Once at Sinai, as it says (Exodus 19:20), “And the Eternal came down upon Mount Sinai” before all the people. Once in the Temple, as it says (Ezekiel 44:2), “And the Eternal said to me, this gate must be kept closed and is never to be opened…because the Eternal, the God of Israel, has come through it.” And once in a pillar of cloud, as it says (Numbers 11:25), “And the Eternal came down in a cloud.” And once more in the future, in the days of Gog and Magog, as its says (Zechariah 14:4), “He will set his feet down, on that day, upon the Mount of Olives.”
