Ramban
UL’LEIVI’ HE SAID - “and ‘of’ Levi158Literally: ul’Levi means “and ‘to’ Levi.” But Rashi translates the prefix lamed here, as “of.” he said.” This is Rashi’s language, and it is also the opinion of the commentators.159Ibn Ezra. It is like the expressions: say ‘li’ (of me):. he is my brother;160Genesis 20:13. Here, too, the word li, literally: “to me,” is interpreted as “of me.” and the men of the place asked him ‘l’ishto’ (about his wife).161Ibid., 26:7. Here also, the word l’ishto, literally: “to his wife,” means “of his wife.” There are many such examples. In my opinion [the expression here is to be understood literally: “and ‘to’ Levi he said”] because Moses had mentioned the names of Reuben and Judah in his blessing [of them], saying, Let Reuben live,162Above, Verse 6. the voice of Judah,163Verse 7. but he did not mention the names of the other tribes in [the text of] their blessings. Therefore Scripture states, And to Levi he said, To Benjamin he said164Further, Verse 12. [in order to make it clear to whom he was addressing his blessing]. This indicates that the tribes were facing him [Moses], and he called Levi and put his eyes upon him and said, thy Thummim and thy Urim.165In Verse 8 before us. Similarly he blessed each tribe face to face.
Ramban
AND HE CALLED THERE IN THE NAME OF THE ETERNAL, ‘E-IL OLAM’ (THE EVERLASTING G-D). Scripture explains that Abraham called by the name Eternal He Who in His might directs the time.
It may be that heaven and earth are here being called olam (world) [so that the sense of the verse is, “he called by the name Eternal the G-d of the world”], as is a customary expression in the words of our Rabbis. Thus Scripture informs us by this that Abraham called out and informed people of the secret of the leadership of the entire world, namely, that it is in the name of the Eternal, the Mighty One in strength, Supreme in power over all.
Now the Rabbi362Rambam. See Seder Bereshith, Note 139. said in the Moreh Nebuchim363II, 13. See also III, 29. that this alludes to the principle of the pre-existence of G-d since Abraham let it be known that G-d existed before the creation of time. Onkelos, however, said of the word vayikra (and he called), that it refers to prayer.
