역대상 8:33의 탈무드

It is written (Ps. 50:23): “To him who makes a road I shall show the help of God.⁹⁴This refers to the opinion of R. Aqiba that a private person may not make improvements in the public domain. The verse is explained in Lev. rabba 9(2), Tanḥuma Teẓawweh 9, to refer to those who install lighting on public roads at their own expense. Hence, improving the public domain is a meritorious deed. The text which proves this, from “Since R. Simeon …” to the end of the paragraph, is a slightly shortened version of the Midrash text.” There is a difference here, because this is an improvement which becomes a defect⁹⁵Filling potholes with earth alone is only a temporary expedient that will lead to larger potholes the next rainy season.. Since Rebbi Simeon ben Laqish said, Saul merited the kingship only because his grandfather lit lights for the public; for that he was called “Ner”. One verse (1Chr. 8:33) says “Ner begot Qish.” Another verse (1S. 9:1) says “Qish the son of Abi’el.” Was not his name Abi’el? But his name became Ner because his grandfather lit lights for the public.
