Мидраш к Шир ха-ширим 5:8
הִשְׁבַּ֥עְתִּי אֶתְכֶ֖ם בְּנ֣וֹת יְרוּשָׁלִָ֑ם אִֽם־תִּמְצְאוּ֙ אֶת־דּוֹדִ֔י מַה־תַּגִּ֣ידוּ ל֔וֹ שֶׁחוֹלַ֥ת אַהֲבָ֖ה אָֽנִי׃
'Я заклинаю вас, дочери Иерусалима, если вы найдете моего возлюбленного, что вы ему скажете? Что я болен любовью.'
Shir HaShirim Rabbah
“I administer an oath to you, daughters of Jerusalem; if you find my beloved, what shall you tell him? That I am lovesick” (Song of Songs 5:8).
“I administer an oath to you, daughters of Jerusalem…what shall you tell him? That I am lovesick” – just as the ill person yearns for healing, so, the generation that was in Egypt yearned for redemption.
