“May [God] give you [veyiten lekha]” – He will give, and give you again.3This is expounded from the fact that the word begins with a vav. He will give you blessings and He will give you a hidden place.4A place where you can retain the blessings. Namely, peace, based on the statement (see Mishna Okatzin 3:12) that the vessel which can retain blessings is peace (Maharzu). “May [God] give you” – yours, and “may [God] give you” – your father’s.

“May [God] give you” – yours, and “may [God] give you” – your brother’s. Rabbi Aḥa said: May [God] give, “and may God give you” divine aid. When? It will be when you need it.

That is what is written: “And said: My Lord God, please remember me and please strengthen me” (Judges 16:28) – he said before Him: ‘Master of the universe, remember for me that blessing that Father blessed me: May [God] give, “and may God give you” divine aid.’ “From the dew of the heavens” – this is the manna, as it is stated: “The Lord said to Moses: Behold, I am raining food for you from the heavens” (Exodus 16:4).

“And from the fat of the land” – this is the well that would bring up for them types of fish that were exceedingly fat. “And from the fat of the land” – these are the offerings, as it is written: “I will offer up to You burnt offerings of fattened animals” (Psalms 66:15). “And an abundance of grain” – these are the lads, as it is written: “For how good and how beautiful it is, there will be grain for the young men” (Zechariah 9:17).

“And wine” – these are the maidens, as it is written: “and new wine will make the maidens talk” (Zechariah 9:17). Another matter, “from the dew of the heavens” – this is Zion, as it is stated: “Like the dew of Hermon descending upon the mountains of Zion” (Psalms 133:3). “And from the fat of the land” – these are the offerings. “Grain” – these are the first fruits.

“Wine” – these are the libations. Alternatively, “from the dew of the heavens” – this is the Bible; “and from the fat of the land” – this is Mishna; “grain” – this is Talmud; “wine” – this is aggada.
