  MISHNAH. WHEN DO WE [BEGIN TO] MAKE MENTION OF THE POWER OF RAIN?1 R.
  ELIEZER SAYS: ON THE FIRST DAY OF THE FEAST.2 R. JOSHUA SAYS: ON THE LAST
  DAY OF THE FEAST. R. JOSHUA SAID TO HIM: SEEING THAT RAIN ON THE FEAST IS A
  SIGN OF [GOD'S] ANGER3 WHY MAKE MENTION OF IT? THEREUPON R. ELIEZER SAID
  TO HIM: I ALSO DID NOT SAY TO PRAY4 BUT TO MAKE MENTION [IN THE WORD] ‘HE
  CAUSETH THE WIND TO BLOW AND THE RAIN TO FALL’5 -IN ITS DUE SEASON. HE [R.
  JOSHUA] REPLIED TO HIM: IF THAT IS SO ONE SHOULD AT ALL TIMES MAKE
  MENTION OF IT.
   WE PRAY FOR RAIN ONLY CLOSE TO THE RAINY SEASON. R. JUDAH SAYS: THE
  LAST TO STEP BEFORE THE ARK6 ON THE LAST DAY OF THE FEAST MAKES MENTION,
  THE FIRST DOES NOT; ON THE FIRST DAY OF PASSOVER THE FIRST MAKES MENTION,
  THE LAST DOES NOT.
   GEMARA. What has the Tanna [in mind] when he teaches WHEN etc.?7 -The Tanna refers to [a
  Mishnah] elsewhere which teaches: We make mention of the Power of Rain in the [benediction of]
  the Revival of the Dead,8 and we pray for [rain] in the Benediction of the Years9 and [we insert] the
  Habdulah10 in [the benediction] ‘Thou favourest man with knowledge’.11 [With that passage in
  mind] the Tanna now teaches: When do we [begin] to make mention of the Power of Rain? Would it
  not have been more appropriate to teach it there, why did he leave it until now? — [Say] rather,
  because the Tanna had just completed [learning the Tractate] Rosh Hashanah12 where we have
  learnt: And on the Feast [the world] is judged through water. And, [as there] he taught: ‘And on the
  Feast [the world] is judged through water,’ therefore there he teaches: When do we [begin] to make
  mention of the Power of Rain. But let him teach: When do we [begin] to make mention of Rain:
  why, the Power of Rain?-R. Johanan said: Because Rain comes down by the Power [of God], as it is
  said, Who doeth great things und unsearchable, marvellous things without number.13 And it is
  [further] written, Who giveth rain upon the earth, and sendeth waters upon the fields.14 Where [in
  these verses is this idea] implied? — Rabbah b. Shila replied: It is derived from the analogous use of
  the word heker in verses treating of Creation. Here it is written, ‘Who doeth great things and
  unsearchable’. And there it is written, ‘Hast thou not known? hast thou not heard that the everlasting
  God, The Lord, the Creator of the ends of the earth, fainteth not, neither is weary? His discernment is
  past searching out.15 And [of Creation] it is [also] written, Who by Thy strength settest fast the
  mountains, Who art girded about with might.16 Whence do we know that mention of
   Rain is to be made in the Prayer?17 - It has been taught: To love the Lord your God and to serve
  Him with all your heart.18 What is Service of Heart? You must needs say, Prayer. And the verse
  following reads, That I will give the rain of your land in its season, the former rain and the latter
  rain.19
   R. Johanan said: Three keys the Holy One blessed be He has retained in His own hands and not
  entrusted to the hand of any messenger, namely, the Key of Rain, the Key of Childbirth, and the Key
  of the Revival of the Dead. The Key of Rain, for It is written, The Lord will open unto thee His good
  treasure, the heaven to give the rain of thy land in its season,20 The Key of Childbirth, for it is
  written, And God remembered Rachel, and God hearkened

  Ya'adin Ma'aydin Ma'Davin worked for the Epiphany, R 'Shimon Ben Lakish spoke to M'Malan (Numbers 13: 11) that he was stronger than he supposedly could not say. R. Levi named R. Levi named R. Hama Bar Hanina (Jeremiah 11: 16) The voice of the hubbub grew to the great hubbub that you said set fire to it and shattered its varicose veins.Tani R. Yossi says the day the house sword was Saturday night and Shmita night and Yahavirib's guard on T. Babb as well as two in this and that were leveled On the pulpit and Amarin (Psalm 23:23) and sitting on them and on their merits their inner selves Gd our God. Rabbi Shimon Ben Lishish in Comi Rabbi Yochanan What is it to say a song we would not agree with Nishmaina from the religious in this and that was halevi They stand on the stand and say and sit down on Unm and Goo. Rabbi Abhu said with a speech about Rabbi Yohanan and Rashbaal Rabbi Yohanan say a song without consent Rashbaal said do not say a song without consent. Rabbi Yohanan wrote to Rashabal and Tani on this and that, and the Levites were standing on the stand and saying their tribute to Rashabal what they heard from Mina, since these were agreed to be the time of a song. Yesterday's poem said: "Levi Yehiorib's son, Miron, received a message from Serbian in a scathing message. Rabbi Yehuirib Ye quarreled with his sons for guarding and refusing him. Knowledge of deep birds Ye knew deep advice in their hearts and embodied to Zippurin: captured more. Rabbi Hava demanded Asherin and four Abedin (Acts 2: 2), the Lord swallowed no mercy. Yochanan demanded Ashitin. And Yochanan would permit Rabbi but by the derby Haveh thick to ruin the Temple, Hush Tamin Sabine Nahirin, and Hashem Dashin and Inin Bachin and Shatkin and Kaimin Lun. Tani R. Yehuda Ben R. Alai Baruch R. would require (Genesis 26: 29) the voice of Jacob and his hands by Esau Jacob's voice squealing from what they did by Esau in Beitar. Tani Rabbi Shimon Bar Yochai said: My teacher, Rabbi Akiva, would expound on the verse "A Star has risen from Jacob." When Rabbi Akiva would see Bar Kusba (Bar Kochba) he would say, 'that is the King the Messiah.' Rabbi Yochanan ben Torta said to him: Akiva! Grass will grow on your cheeks and the son of David will not yet have come! . Sir John Cole Adrianus Caesar kills eighty thousand more rebuilders. Sir John eighty thousand of a pair of fund-raisers rounded out Betar and each one was in charge of several soldiers and there was a false son and he had two hundred thousand finger tips. Send wise men and tell him until when do you make Israel my mum told them and that it allowed you to check. He was told that anyone who does not ride his horse and a landlord from Lebanon will not be written in your Isertia, he had two hundred thousand and two hundred thousand and a faded heart issued to the Lord said that Ribonia Delma And you will not go out in our armies for three years and a half, Comprehensive Edrinus did more. And this is the conscious Rabbi Elazar sitting on the sack and on the ashes and praying every day and telling the world ruler Do not sit in judgment today Do not sit in judgment today in Ara Adrienus Mizel Lia. Said Leia Moneti will not neglect you, my mother-in-law what is working and complement you with the state of Ala Leia from Biba Demtinata Ala and forgetful Rabbi Elazar Modi Kai Shady. Her soul slave whispered in the state of Goh Odnya Hamunya people of the state and Ayatonia Gabi ben Kuzba. Amaron Lia Khamin, your great grandfather said to Lia what did you say to Lia and what did you say to Lia please tell me Malka Katali me and if not please tell you Katali Yati Ati Gabi Rabbi Elazar Modi told Lia what did you say, Kuteya told Lia nothing what did you say Lia nothing
