משנה: חַיָיב לְבָרֵךְ עַל הָרָעָה כְּשֵׁם שֶׁמְּבָרֵךְ עַל הַטּוֹבָה שֶׁנֶּאֱמַר וְאָהַבְתָּ אֶת יי אֱלֹהֶיךָ בְּכָל לְבָבְךָ וּבְכָל נַפְשְׁךָ וּבְכָל מְאֹדֶךָ. בְּכָל לְבָבְךָ בִּשְׁנֵי יְצָרֶיךָ בְּיֵצֶר הַטּוֹב וּבְיֵצֶר הָרָע. בְּכָל נַפְשְׁךָ אֲפִילוּ הוּא נוֹטֵל אֶת נַפְשֶׁךָ. בְּכָל מְאֹדֶךָ בְּכָל מָמוֹנְךָ. דָּבָר אַחֵר בְּכָל מְאֹדֶךָ בְּכָל מִידָּה וּמִידָּה שֶׁהוּא מוֹדֵד לָךְ בַּכֹּל הֲוֵי מוֹדֶה לוֹ מְאֹד מְאֹד. לֹא יָקֵל אָדָם אֶת רֹאשׁוֹ כְּנֶגֶד שַׁעַר הַמִּזְרָח שֶׁהוּא מְכוּוָּן כְּנֶגֶד בֵּית קָדְשֵׁי הַקֳּדָשִׁים. וְלֹא יִכָּנֵס לְהַר הַבַּיִת בְּמַקְּלוֹ וּבְמִנְעֲלוֹ וּבַאֲפוּנְדָתוֹ וּבְאָבָק שֶׁעַל רַגְלָיו. וְלֹא יַעֲשֶׂנּוּ קַפַּנְדָּרִיָּה. וּרְקִיקָה מִקַּל וָחוֹמֶר. כָּל חוֹתְמֵי הַבְּרָכוֹת שֶׁהָיוּ בַמִּקְדָּשׁ הָיוּ מִן הָעוֹלָם. וּמִשֶּׁקִּלְקְלוּ הַמִּינִין וְאָמְרוּ אֵין עוֹלָם אֶלָָּא אֶחָד. הִתְקִינוּ שֶׁיְּהוּ אוֹמְרִים מִן הָעוֹלָם וְעַד הָעוֹלָם. וְהִתְקִינוּ שֶׁיְּהֵא אָדָם שׁוֹאֵל אֶת שְׁלוֹם חֲבֵרוֹ בַשֵּׁם שֶׁנֶּאֱמַר וְהִנֵּה בוֹעַז בָּא מִבֵּית לֶחֶם. וַיֹּאמֶר לַקּוֹצְרִים יי עִמָּכֶם. וְאוֹמֵר אַל תָּבוּז כִּי זָקְנָה אִמֶּךָ. עֵת לַעֲשׂוֹת לַיי הֵפֵרוּ תוֹרָתֶךָ. רִבִּי נָתָן אוֹמֵר הֵפֵרוּ תוֹרָתֶךָ עֵת לַעֲשׂוֹת לַיי.
MISHNAH: One is required to recite a benediction for bad things the same way it is said for good things, as it is written (Deut. 6:5): “You must love the Eternal, your God, with all your heart, all your soul, and all your force.” “With all your heart,” with your two instincts, the goodinstinct and the bad instinct. “With all your soul,” even if He takes your soul. “With all your force,” with all your money. Another explanation: “With all your force,” for every measure that He measures for you, for everything thank him very much. A person should not behave improperly before the Eastern gate, which lies in a straight line with the Holiest of Holies. And one should not enter the Temple Mount with his walking stick, sandals, money belt, or dust on his feet. Also one should not use it as a short cut, and certainly not spit there. All endings of benedictions in the Temple were “from eternity.” When heretics did err and said that there was only one world, they ordained that one should say “from eternity to eternity.” They also instituted that one should greet his friend by the Name, as it was said (Ruth 2:4): “Lo, Boaz came from Bethlehem and said to the harvesters: The Eternal be with you!” And it says (Pr. 23:22): “Be not contemptuous because your mother got old.” (Ps. 119:126) “It is time to work for the Eternal; they violated Your Torah.” Rebbi Nathan says, they violated Your Torah, it is time to work for the Eternal.
