사무엘상 3:11 카발라: Sha'arei Kedusha

It is taught⁷¹⁹Talmud Bavli, Rosh HaShanah 18a (See Rashi) that Rabba bar Nachmeinee and Abaye both came from the house of Eli.⁷²⁰The House of Eli was subject to a curse that its members would die young and would not be atoned for through sacrificial offerings (Samuel I 3:11-14). The Talmud discusses other means by which members of the House of Eli were able to bring about atonement and prolonged their lives, such as through the study of Torah and acts of lovingkindness. Rabba bar Nachmeinee who engaged almost exclusively in Torah, lived for forty years, whereas his student, Abaye, lived twenty years longer because he engaged both in Torah study and acts of lovingkindness. Acts of goodness and kindness save a person from the judgments of purgatory (Gehinnom) as well as the judgments of the torments of the grave (Chibut HaKever), as mentioned before in the second gate.
