시편 105:2의 미드라쉬

Another comment on These are the names (Exod. 1:1). Scripture states: As is Thy name, O God, so is Thy praise, unto the end of the earth (Ps. 48:11). Men praise a human king as strong though he may be weak; they acclaim him as handsome though he may be ugly; they extol him as merciful though he may be cruel, but the Holy One, blessed be He, exceeds all the praise heaped upon Him, for He is the great, the mighty, the awe-inspiring God. David exclaimed: Who can express the mighty acts of the Lord, or make all His praise be heard? (Ps. 105:2), while Job declared: Shall it be told Him that I speak? or should a man wish that he were swallowed up? (Job 37:20). The men of the Great Synagogue later proclaimed: Blessed be Thy glorious name that is exalted above all blessing and praise (Neh. 9:5).
