73 Shoftim 1, 31. 74 1. But there is no mention, earlier, of Moshe’s having cried out! 2. Is it not appropriate to
pray at a time of great danger?! 75 The word −ÔñÑê seems superfluous. It would have been sufficient to say íÔô 60 Rashi refers to what we call a óÖñBì as óetêGÐô, i.e., had the word been ,eòѳBnÌô it would have been a contraction of
šÔ¼Ð®Ìz—“Why do you cry out?” šÔ¼Ð®ÌzíÔô is, therefore, separated from −ÔñÑê. Also, the êÖìÐt̬-note under šÔ¼Ð®Ìz indicates a eòÖlÓL³ÓîÖôÌô—than our death. 61 Or what some refer to as ±Šaeš 62 Below, 16, 3. 63 II Shmuel 19, 1. David’s lament
