Ein Yaakov (Glick Edition)
(Gen. 21, 33) And Abraham planted a tamarisk-tree in Beer'sheba. Said Resh Lakish: "Infer from this that he made an orchard and planted in it every kind of delicacies." R. Juda and R. Nechemia both differ as to the explanation of this passage. One says that the passage refers to an orchard and the other says that it refers to an inn. It is evidently right according to the one who explains it an orchard; for the passage says, Vayita, (and he planted) but as to the one who explains it an inn, what is the meaning of Vayita? (and he planted)? Such an expression we find in the following passage (Dan. 11, 45) Vayita, he will pitch the tents of his palace between seas and glorious holy mountains. (Gen. 12, 33) And called there on the name of the Lord. Said Resh Lakish: "Do not read Vayikra and he called it, but Vayakri (Ib. b) and he caused it to be called." Infer from this that Abraham caused every traveler to call the name of the Holy One, praised be He! How was this done? After they had eaten and drunk they would stand up to bless Abraham, whereupon Abraham would say to them: "Have you then eaten from mine? You have eaten from that which belongs to the God of the Universe; therefore praise and bless Him who spoke and the world came in existence."

Between days the holy deer came to the mountain and came to its end and there was no one to help him (Daniel 11:5). And at that time Michael the great minister will stand and blow the shofar three times, as it was said and it would happen on that day that he would blow a great shofar (Isaiah 27:13), and that shofar is the right horn of Isaac's ram, and God will extend it to a thousand cubits, and he will blow the sound and the Messiah will be revealed Son of David and Elijah, and they both go to Israel, who are in the wilderness of the nations, and Elijah says to them, this is the Messiah, and restores their hearts and strengthens their hands, as it is said, "Strengthen weak hands and feeble knees, embrace them, say to those who are quick of heart, be strong, do not be afraid" (Isaiah 35:4). And all the children of Israel heard the sound of the shofar and knew that he had redeemed Israel, as it is said that God redeemed Jacob (there), and the lost came to the land of Assyria. And immediately the fear of God falls on the nations and on all the nations, and Israel returns with the Messiah until they come to the Judean desert and are recorded with all the children of Israel, and they come to Jerusalem and ascend the steps of the House of David that remain from the destruction, and the Messiah sits there. And Armilus heard that there was a king standing for Israel, and he gathered soldiers from all over the world and came to the Messiah and Israel's king, and the Almighty will fight for Israel, and he says to the Messiah, return to my right hand, and the Messiah says to Israel, gather and stand and see the salvation of God, and immediately the Almighty will come out and fight with them, As it is said, "And the Lord will go forth and fight against these nations" (Zechariah 14:3), and it is written, "At that time I will be your father, and at that time I will gather you, for I will give you to his name and to be glorified among all the peoples of the earth" (Zephaniah 3:20). Amen, the time will come and that time.

ADAM IN PARADISE
WITH love abounding did the Holy One, blessed be He, love the first man, inasmuch as He created him in a pure locality, in the place of the Temple, and He brought him into His palace, as it is said, "And the Lord God took the man, and put him into the garden of Eden to dress it and to keep it" (Gen. 2:15). From which place did He take him? From the place of the Temple, and He brought him into His palace, which is Eden, as it is said, "And he put him into the garden of Eden to dress it" (ibid.). Perhaps thou wilt say: To plough (the fields) and cast out the stones from the ground. But did not all the trees grow up of their own accord?
