Arose Rabbi Shim’on. He opened and said: (1 Chron. 29:11) To You, Y”Y, is the greatness and the might... etc.
Hear O high-ones! Those sleepers of Hebron, and the Faithful Shepherd! Wake up from your slumber!
(Is. 26:19)... Wake up and rejoice! O dwellers of the dust... These are the righteous-ones, who are from the aspect of whom it is stated: (Song. 5:2) I am asleep, and my heart is awake... And they are not dead. And thus, it is said of them: (Is. 26:19)... Wake up and rejoice... etc.
Awake O Faithful Shepherd! Be aroused, you and the Patriarchs, for the arousal of the Shekhinah, Who is sleeping in exile, for until now the righteous have all been reposing, and slumber is in their nostrils.
