“רוּחַ קַל מְנַשֵּׁב עַל פְּנֵי שִׁכְבַת הָעֵשֶׂב אֲשֶׁר הוּא רוֹעֶה שָׁם, וּמִשָּׁם יַעֲבֹר חִישׁ קַל, וִינַעְנֵעַ בַּלָאט אֶת עֲלֵי עֲצֵי הַחוֹרֶשׁ הַקָּרוֹב”

A light blows over the layer of grass where it is grazing, and from there it will pass quickly, gently rustling the leaves of the trees of the nearby grove.

“אָמַר ר׳ יִשְׁמָעֵאל: מִבַּעֲלֵי בָּתִּים שֶׁבַּגָּלִיל הָעֶלְיוֹן הָיוּ בֵּית אַבָּא, וּמִפְּנֵי מָה חָרְבוּ? שֶׁהָיוּ מַרְעִין בַּחוֹרְשִׁין, וְדָנִין דִּינֵי מָמוֹנוֹת בְּיָחִיד, ואע״פ שֶׁהָיוּ לָהֶם חוֹרְשִׁים סָמוּךְ לְבָתֵּיהֶם, שָׂדֶה קְטַנָּה הָיְתָה וּמַעֲבִירִין דֶּרֶךְ עָלֶיהָ.”

They would graze in the forests, and judge monetary law with one person. And even though there were forests close to their homes, there was a small field and they would pass a path through it.

“מָה אֶרֶז זֶה עוֹלֶה בַּחוֹרְשִׁים וְהוּא עָשׂוּי הֶפְקֵר לְכָל אָדָם?”

What is this cedar rising in the forests, and made of the refuse of all mankind?
