Every Barren One Who Had None Was Granted a Child

"Not comforted" (Isaiah 54:11). Rabbi Levi said: Every place where it says "she has none [ein lah]," in the end she had. "And Sarah was barren; she had no child [ein lah valad]" (Genesis 11:30)—and in the end she had, "Sarah has nursed children" (Genesis 21:7). "And Peninnah had children, but Hannah had no children [ein yeladim]" (1 Samuel 1:2)—and in the end she had, "for the LORD visited Hannah, and she conceived and bore three sons and two daughters" (1 Samuel 2:21). "This is Zion; no one seeks her [ein doresh lah]" (Jeremiah 30:17)—and in the end she had, "And a redeemer shall come to Zion" (Isaiah 59:20).
