Дварим 3:23 Ссылки в Талмуде: Berakhot

He who says : Until his mind can offer supplication [tithonen], it is because it is said, "And I supplicated [waethannan] the Lord" (Deut. iii. 23) ; and he who says : Until his mind can offer beseeching prayer [titholel], it is because it is written, "And Moses besought [wayyehal] the Lord" (Exod. xxxii. 11).

R. Simlai expounded : A man should always recount the praise of the Holy One, blessed be He, and thereafter pray [for his needs]. Whence have we this? From Moses; for it is written, "And I besought the Lord at that time, saying" (Deut. iii. 23). Then it is written, "O Lord God, Thou hast begun to show Thy servant Thy greatness, and Thy strong hand ; for what god is there in heaven or on earth, that can do according to Thy works, and according to Thy mighty acts ?" (ibid. v. 24). And after that it is written, "Let me go over, I pray Thee, and see the good land" etc. (ibid. v. 25).
