Sifre 305 contains an exquisite little aggadah on Moses and the angel of death. [11] A long citation from the beginning of the midrash is also contained in a homily in Tanhuma [12] on the same theme, the death of Moses. A second recension is based on Proverbs 31:39, and is considered by Adolf Jellinek, but probably incorrectly, to be the older.

After this happened three times, Eli realised that the voice was the Lord's, and instructed Samuel on how to answer: If He calls you, then you must say, "Speak, Lord, for Your servant hears". [19]
In 1 Samuel 15:3, Israelite king Saul is told by God via the prophet Samuel: “Now go, attack Amalek, and proscribe [kill and dedicate to YHWH] all that belongs to him. Spare no one, but kill alike men and women, infants and sucklings, oxen and sheep, camels and asses!” [ 7 ] Saul's failure to be sufficiently harsh with Amalek is portrayed ...
Not only would Yahweh strike the newborn child of Bathsheba and David with illness so that it died after seven days (2 Samuel 12:13–18), but Yahweh says that he would let someone close (רֵעַ rea) to David take away / seize (לָקַח laqach) all his wives and have him sleep with / rape (שָׁכַב šākab) them in broad ...
